i believe the latest rumors suggest 16GB unified GDDR6, but the relevant tech here might be sophisticated caching technology that also leverages a fast PCIe 4.0 SSD
this was fixed in software a while ago, even my old 2011 (?) Mac mini no longer needed the dummy hdmi dongle connected to have aresponsive/hw accelerated UI via remote access
I know which one has more "oomph" when I need a CLI and package manager...
Im not sure I agree; a set of $700 wheels won’t make anybody who can easily afford them feel like struggling customers again. Wealthy people that I got to know would likely feel offended by the price tag in relation to…
Some large motherboard vendors do this too. They'll happily drop an autoupdater onto any fresh Windows installation booted from the board. https://www.techpowerup.com/248827/asus-z390-motherboards-au...
In a way they already do. All current Macs include a T2 chip, which is a variant of the A10 chip that handles various tasks like controlling the SSD NAND, TouchID, Webcam DSP, various security tasks and more. The…
Interesting, is this feasible in everyday life? I do not use Linux on my desktop or notebook but I would like to do so in the near future. This means I should strive to keep all my user created data within the home…
Yes, there's also the topic of unrecoverable read errors (URE) and their effect on successful RAID rebuilds. [1][2] Most consumer drives are still sold rated as <10^14 bits read per error. That's 12.5 terabytes, so in…

"the internet" from a dedicated fiber line is not the same as "the internet" from a oversubscribed 3G cell tower in the same country. Running better/more aggressive last mile QoS in the affected regions would make more…
That's exactly what I was wondering! With my (relatively small) Cable ISP in an affected country it obvious to me that any Netflix content gets served from very close to the edge, with higher bandwidth and lower latency…
wouldn't it be risky to ride behind a potentially infected rider? after all you'd be breathing in their exhaled air, or would the speed and wind dillute the aerosol quickly enough to make it harmless? I read that italy…
My opinion is that MacBook Pros turned into consumer machines somewhere along the way and the overwhelming majority of buyers use them for Facebook, Youtube and Mail.app. I imagine Apple has a vast amount of metrics on…
I had both (a gift I didn't ask for) and prefer the QC35s for NC and regular Airpods for casual on-the-go use. Airpod Pros had worse noise cancelling but slightly better sound quality (clearer mids/highs, less bass). I…
My eye doctor told me that it's all made up by the optometric industry and there's no meaningful evidence. (I still use night mode and calibrate my screens for low temperatures because even if it is just a placebo, it…

Interesting. As a datapoint, I was unexpectedly gifted Airpod Pros for Christmas and all three tip sizes seal well in my ears according to the test app. The middle sized one is most comfortable. Regular Airpods fit…
Apple's hardware recently improved by reverting some changes done over the last few years. Many attribute this to the departure of a certain designer that was also in charge of iOS 7, so I feel like there’s hope.

I think this is Steve Job's famous truck, the vehicle that only very few people need.[1] Admittedly this is slightly ironic given recent Tesla news headlines. Unlike with the iPad this device can be upgraded, repaired…
I'm curious if AMD could produce an internal engineering sample that simply copies all the relevant product strings from the competing vendor. They could check for statistically relevant performance discrepancies from…

I just checked with the Intel Power Gadget on a 2015 MBP 10.14.6, iGPU only, same video at 1080p, package power consumption (CPU + iGPU): ~6,4W average in Safari 13.0.3 ~8,6W average in Firefox 70
