stay ready to have my toolbox change under my feet at the whims of clown PM and bean counters somewhere. wcgw

i dont believe you

same. i thought it was me, but every mbp has been spicy and leaks current like crazy.

oh fr. macs are garbage dev machines. display gives me headaches. keyboard is terrible, it hurts. speakers are the best part.

the lock screen doesnt show battery charge level. dead battery? mac wont start for 15 min on connecting power... still need half ass homebrew

> dead battery? mac wont start for 15 min on connecting power

Having just received an M4 in the mail with a completely flat battery, I can confirm this is nearer 10 seconds on Apple silicon (you are correct it used to be this way on Intel Macs)

Having an M1 and an M2, no it isn't. Takes at least 5 minutes on the 65W charger to get bootable from a full drain. Maybe something changed with the newer models but it isn't a benefit across all Apple Silicon.

Have never tried the 65W charger, but have had no issues booting from fully discharged with the 96W brick

Same for me. I spent 3 days dealing with AI crap, following it's thinking "process".

However it is great for "go add this username to this allowlist in this file"

The reason of the conflict being a lunatic and spineless supporters.

I deplore the “lunatic” and also support any attempts of liberating the entire Middle East from the deplorable Iranian regime. So many of the problems of this region can be traced back to them.

I’m probably stretching what you said beyond what you meant, but while also deploring that regime I don’t support any attempt. I support effective action. This war was not effective action. I think it was utterly counterproductive.

Frankly this is why all these big tech companies need to be broken down to pieces.

Not great men. People with "perceived" high networth. Banks will fall over backwards to loan them money. See Chase and Musk. Let's not associate perceived networth with "great"

Amodei is another Musk/Altman wannabe with their RSF. That randomly changes from 2.0 to 3.0. Where is the research on fighting and identify AI slop?

Everybody on HN be handing over their thinking and right to indenpendent compute for some AI speed, quick money gains and fearmongering to big tech.

Even after the uncountable shady things about big tech, people just fall for that convenience left and right. Paying $200/mo to outsource my thinking skill to some rent seeking cartel that steals and is territorial is wild
