That desktop app really is super hot garbage.

There’s not much room in the Mac Mini for additional LPCAMM modules, or the MacBook Air.
The SSDs Apple use lack a controller (that’s built into the M series SoC). That drives down Apple’s cost of materials but surely it wouldn’t be that hard to support a standard NVMe M.2 interface?
The M4 Pro memory is quad channel, so I assume 256 bit.
The two LPCAMMS required for this would require a lot more space.
I give them a pass on memory packaging (but not pricing). SSDs are indefensible though.
I’ll hold out for the Pro Max Ultra
Linus is really, really shitty at responding to criticism. I don’t think it’s malice, it just didn’t occur to them.
He should just be upfront and say “you know what? We should have done better here”. That’s it.
It must be weird being so old. I'd presume once you hit 80 you'd sort of stop planning for the long term. To still be around almost 30 years later..
Defence force staff are currently working to rule which is causing all sorts of problems. Eg taking their allotted breaks which leave critical parts of the org offline for 30 minutes or so (so they're having to pull in officers to cover the gaps). It's hugely disruptive and I assume very effective as a negotiation tool.
BUT. If the organisation can't function with the staff taking their legally mandated breaks, the understaffing is just being exposed by the workers who have been plugging the gap, unpaid, until now.
That work to rule can see your pay docked is utterly insane.
The entire Polity series is great, but my favourite parts are always when we follow a Prador perspective.
Look at Mr Moneybags over here with a positive bank balance..
For music? You could use Bluetooth, or attach an SSD full of music. Or simply hotspot to your phone and use the built in music apps.
Personally I think $10 per month for unlimited data (audio and video streaming) is a steal.
It’s also not required unless you want realtime traffic or data for audio streaming.
You’re can still do most things without the small monthly fee

Notifications etc I can understand if you don’t know how to use tech properly.
What I don’t understand is how every older person seems to have loud speakerphone conversations in public. They had landlines most of their lives so why do this?
