Balder@lemmy.worldto Apple@lemmy.world•[Snazzy Labs] The $600 Mac Mini is a Steal—Until It’s a ScamEnglish2·7 months agoLinus has made a video about this recently trying to build an equivalent machine. There’s really nothing like the base Mac Mini for its price, but that stops being true as soon as you make any upgrades.
Balder@lemmy.worldto Apple@lemmy.world•[Snazzy Labs] The $600 Mac Mini is a Steal—Until It’s a ScamEnglish2·7 months agoThe whole sales of Macs is a small portion of Apple’s earnings, but I think it’s still a lot in gross numbers.
I think it’s the sort of thing to keep a hold in case the market shifts and Apple needs to change strategies, like they’ve been doing in raising the percentage coming from services compared to iPhone sales. They’re monetizing the “ecosystem” more than ever.
Or some people like me prefer ergonomic keyboards and don’t use these miniature overpriced Apple keyboards.
In case people didn’t know what company he was referring to. /s
What’s the experience so far?
I see it more of a limitation, you don’t want your laptop to warm (and it shouldn’t in light use), but you want to cool it for the few times it does.
Balder@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Schenker shows off a Linux laptop prototype with Snapdragon X Elite at Computex 2024English2·1 year agoI think UEFI was something that took a while to be standardized and mostly because of Intel’s influence over it, while ARM seems more diverse both in manufacturers and types of devices. When things are decentralized it becomes much more difficult to get everyone on board of something.
Balder@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Beta Is Now Available for Download with GNOME 46, Linux 6.8 - 9to5LinuxEnglish3·1 year agoI don’t think the people excited about Linux are using or talking about Ubuntu, though, which probably skews people’s perceptions if they’re on Lemmy and Reddit a lot. Enthusiast spaces have all the “I run arch btw” people and even weirder and more obscure distros.
This is exactly the thing. 10 years ago when I was in college, everybody just used Ubuntu for laptops, and nowadays I don’t hear about it at all. I had the impression it kinda died, but seems like things are more or less the same.
Balder@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Beta Is Now Available for Download with GNOME 46, Linux 6.8 - 9to5LinuxEnglish181·1 year agoI wonder what percentage of desktop users still use Ubuntu nowadays. Seems like there’s no way to have a clear picture, besides DistroWatch which is more like “interest” and not actual usage?
Balder@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Beta Is Now Available for Download with GNOME 46, Linux 6.8 - 9to5LinuxEnglish2·1 year agoThere’s also the issue of testing all the packages. They have to make sure all the versions frozen in the repository will work smoothly together.

Any new features that you like in particular?English14·2 years agoSeems like quite a lot of people on Reddit are suffering from some random apps (such as the phone app) taking gigabytes of space, which didn’t happen before.

I know one thing people complained on Reddit before is that the current shortcuts settings doesn’t tell you where the shortcut was duplicated. See this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/s/JjTxfDLjSY
