It’s not 100% it but it’s close enough. Praise the white hat lords!

Oh look, man coming from a fascist refuge of yore happens to be a fascist and a sociopath, what are the odds huh?!

Looking forward to see their CEO’s picachu face when they ask their governments handouts to compete with Chinese RAM that has in between entered the market…

Nadella has gives exactly 0 fucks about Microsoft’s products, legacy, its employees and the company itself, let alone the customers. His only concern is how can he squeeze more money from the white Dalits while enslaving Shudras and stealing their labour so he can further enrich himself. Anyone thinking otherwise is delusional.

What’s the likelyhood a white hat group scrubs reddit and makes all of its content available on an alternative fedi instance, preferably in a non western friendly jurisdiction?

Microslop

You can get a 5900HS G14 today for 800€

The Ryzen 9 270 is what’s currently in the G14

That’s for the cheaper GA403U models, the GA403W models have the 370.

Apple compared the M4 with the M1 because the M3 beats the M4 in several scenarios, especially in comparable SKUs where the M4 downgrades memory bandwidth. Now, of course, I could be a fanboy and preach that it’s because the M1 is so good.

I think you need this since you start resorting to ad hominem.

FYI, Ryzen 9 270 is last gen, anyways:

Here’s a nice link to the passmark forum. You can clearly see a deranged Apple fanboy that has difficulty grasping anecdote is not the singular of data.

Back on topic:

The M4 air lets you run console and a bunch of daily tasks well enough, however, it really isn’t a work machine. It’s an iPad pro with a keyboard. Apple has troves of data on what the people who buy their HW do so they adapt fixed function for HW acceleration as needed. The single threaded benches are also wildly misleading as if you try to edit music on an Air you’ll be pulling your hair out due to latency on the “best single threaded portable CPU” due to thermal constraints (and yes, I know RTINGS recommends Apple for music production, sadly, they don’t really test latency propper, especially for music production). Run Izotope Ozone 10 with some oversampling and curse your life for going with Apple. Oh, and if you want to do anything remotely useful, get ready to shell out some extra money for RAM and storage that brings the price of the air up to par with the G14…

Apple laptops are Veblen goods, the battery life is great, when using popular software it works well (Adobe 🤮🤮🤢🤮🤮) but even Apple finds the M4 so underwhelming it had to compare it to the M1 instead of M3.

Given its age, the 5900HS has no place being as competitve with the M4 10core as it is, and yet, here we are.

After 5y the 5900HS is still a compelling alternative to the M4.

If one would run a 2t cinebench vs 1t on the Apple silicon the 5900 would have competitive single core performance too. (Apple lacks SMT)

This is two nodes behind and with 2 cores less. If people stopped using geekbench for laptops and PCs, this stupid Apple narrative would go away. Apple makes great laptops but they aren’t the best and are arguably worse because they lock you into Apple’s commercial relationships with software providers. There’s HW acceleration for Adobe software but none for D’Assault software or Siemens software. Apple is the machine for the dilletante, and because most content creators are dilletantes, the message that passes is Apple centric. If Apple and Apple users were to evaporate, the world would carry on as usual, if linux machines would disappear overnight it would be utter chaos.

*Looks at a 5y old G14 that gives a modern m4 Air a run for its money.

Yeah, Imma call BS on that. Apple has a handful of product lines that share vertically integrated components that allows them the economies of scale to integrate great things like their glass trackpad in cheaper models like the air. That said, there are several premium laptops at the same price tags than Apple that are arguably a better choice than the Apple offerings, the aforementioned G14 among them, especially if one takes linux compatibility seriously.

Thanks but I won’t take advice from a usanian. You lot elected one as president so you should just sit this one out and STFU.

Like hispanic looking people! Those darned Han Chinese!!!

Now do Netflix, Prime, Paramount, HBO, Disney, Hulu and Apple and we’re golden.

Would be a magical day the day copyright dies.

It’s “Pedophile in chief” nowadays.

I don’t like to use the word on social media that is usually crawled. I don’t want to have a specific fedi instance be associated with unsavoury subjects by no fault of their own.

aka, a bit paranoid.

Love the uptick in Linux usage but Roblox is digital heroin for kids and has a serious problem with PDF files. Any advertising of roblox is not great.

This plot is complete BS, Deezer pays double than spotify.

Is it a non-profit? No? It will enshitify.

no, my time is precious.
