Played with a Neo at the Apple Store. It was far better than I was expecting. Loaded the 150mb sample image in affinity photo and it chewed through it no problem. Very snappy.

I was about to say it’s not powerful enough to be my daily laptop but it probably is. I like my MBP more but not sure if $2000 more.

I have a mini on my desk at work and it’s awesome. Driving 3 displays without missing a beat.

Not gonna happen with Apple’s SOC. But you can upgrade the SSD. I bumped mine to 2TB relatively painlessly with a aliexpress module.

Who cares? People like different things.

I actually don’t mind having manual requests. When people have to request stuff from me it helps down the road when I ask them to contribute a 8-10TB drive to my array 😀

It’s far out of spec for OPs requirements however I purchased a Hisense PX3 Pro for home use and have never been happier with a projector even though it broke my budget.

It’s just amazing and has revolutionized “family movie night” (which has actually been Anpanman movies on Netflix for the last month or so).

This is the correct answer on both fronts.

All I’m interested in is price per load compared to bulk powder from Costco which does a great job.

It’s what I’d get my kids if they needed a laptop right now. Easy choice, blows Chromebook garbage away.

Apple’s security is pretty good and will work against you in this case. If you know the password you can unlock it but otherwise you’re probably kinda boned for the time being.

You could still hold onto it and hope someone comes out with an exploit down the road that bypasses the security but it’s a longshot.

If it has an eSIM I would power it down completely or store in a faraday pouch to block signals to it, as if they do a remote erase on it there’s no coming back from that.

What’s the difference between Stuffing Ads, and placing ads? Little bit dramatic trying to set the tone much?

Oh well.

They have taken away? Surely you mean government has taken away and given to themselves?

Not just schools. Parents. Now my kids won’t have to suffer with a Chromebook.

You sound happy. Job done!

I think that India had the skill and QC if you wanted to pay for it, but if china was working fine there was little incentive to change something that worked. Political tensions made the change necessary moreso than economic or skill reasons.

The whole middle class issue in China is going to become a big problem for the Chinese government. They’ve developed their entire economy on being the low cost maker of everything and if that goes away they’ll have an economic collapse.

Not really any point. Mac OS takes all of the best parts of a Unix OS and wraps them in the only GUI interface that truly doesn’t suck.

I’d usually keep 20-40,000 ¥ on me when I first got to Japan in the 90s. I remember arriving at Narita and just planning on hitting an ATM to get cash because I didn’t have any money on me, just cards. Oops.

Now most places take credit cards snd tap so much easier.

Was a lot of fun. Happy I left the winter tires on and AWD.

Japan is a heavily cash based society so large sums are definitely more common. May have been a senior or someone getting scammed and don’t want to admit it.
