Can I get a TLDR. I’m on the page about downloading it, but there are so many files to download which makes me think I am looking at the wrong stuff.

I’m pretty sure it’s Elon.

That price is way too much. My wife and I use Netflix for hours each day on average. I get significantly more use out of netflix. There is no way I’m paying a website like the verge $7/month when I can get the same new for free from some YouTuber.

Yeah, we could almost all be using iPad that dock and fun a full OS. But because corporation needs their profits tech advancement has been held back.

Don’t you need nvidia cards to run ai stuff?

I bet it’s because no one truly wants to be on linked in and suck up to their manager.

Now ai can handle the bs writing most people do.

I still can’t believe that so many PCs are getting cut off from software updates. Its going to be a huge security issue. There will suddenly be millions of unsecured computers being actively used. I can imagine that this will be allowed to happen.

I think Microsoft is doing this because they want to make the ultimate spy network with copilot or what ever they are calling it now. I really need to figure out how to get a single work app to work on Linux reliably. I use it for like 99% of my work, so a virtual machine is kind of useless. I honestly think I will need to wait for a native version of the app to be developed and who knows if that will happen.

Can you give a tl:dr?

One thing that stopped me from using it is that every single crypto transaction needs to be reported on your US tax return due to the way profits from the coins are taxed in situations where the value increases. It is annoying to have to compile all the data. If that changes, I will probably start using crypto again.

I figured to turn on one drive for my business user account as I was using two computers.

Then I decided, that I didn’t want it to sync the documents folder since I don’t really use it.

The settings told me that it can’t stop syncing the desktop, pictures, or documents folders because they had critical files or something like that.

I just signed out of OneDrive and the problem was solved.

If it was so critical why does everything work after signing out?

I fucking hate using windows.

This seems pretty cool. I might actually host this.

Thanks! I do like the portability of it and it’s so much cheaper. The video editing will be super basic and just 1080p.

I guess I’m mostly confused as I always hear about how the air throttles, but I never actually hear anyone say anything bad about the air or that they think it’s underperforming or can’t handle a task.

I’m going to steal my wife’s m1 MacBook Air for a couple days and put it through its paces.

If her 8gb m1 can handle it, then I have no doubts a 16gb m4 air will be able to handle it either.

Wow! Thanks for this. I think the air probably had enough power for my needs. Especially considering that I’ll wait for the m4

That’s a great idea, I’ll look into it. Since the base ram increased, the outgoing model would need to have a really big discount to make it worth it.

Have you done any obs recording on the air? I’m curious how extended recording will heat it up.

Thanks! I think you’re right.

Thanks! I that’s what my wife would say as well. Based on the comments here, it seems that the pro is what I’ll be getting.

Thanks! I was actually waiting until Apple made the base ram 16gb before I would buy one. I’ve been waiting since the m2 came out 😂

My windows workload typically uses around 9-10gb so clearly 8gb was not enough.

Thanks! I was thinking that I’d need the fan for some of my workloads. I was hoping I’d get a resounding “the air is fine” so I could spend a lot less.
