I find it weirdly reassuring that the muppets in charge are all hardcore capitalists and grifters and are the best guarantee they will push this as far as possible without destroying the planet or the economy.
Not saying there will be no death and destruction, but in the end they’ll just want to keep grifting.
Got to wait till he’s Weinstein-ripe. More bruises and in a wheelchair and frail enough to get compassion from the jury.
Eh. 8GB is unified memory, meaning it also needs to carry the graphics load. You’re making it sound like it is just working memory. MacOS is also more graphics heavy than PC, especially Linux based OS, so whatever efficiency you’ll get from the OS in terms of memory compression and management, you’ll also have to offer for the smooth expose, missing control and all the frosted glass translucent garbage they force on the users.
8GB is shit low. Email and browsing, ok. But as soon as you have 40 tabs open in chrome, it will be email or browsing. Garageband sure, again dont run anything else in the background. But I doubt you’ll even be able to edit a 1080p project in iMovie without stutter on battery power. The biggest issue is that you can’t upgrade it, so whatever software upgrades happen, 8GB is all you’ll ever get.
They were talking about memory not storage
As a prison guard you should really learn to keep your mouth shut
The number isn’t as important as the tell of the media in how they choose to report them.
As somebody else posted: 9 Israeli lives will stay above the fold for days, and over 80 girls killed at school never gets front page.
These puff pieces are so obvious. There were less than 50 people in Brisbane yesterday, and it was plastered everywhere. But rallies with 500 to 1000s supporting Free Palestine are ignored at best or reported as a bundle of rallies or called anti-Semitic or organised by hate groups.
That’s my point
Oh yes, like how the US is totally showing how far their support goes for their allies?
In times of falling empires, it’s each for themselves. The big ones are each securing critical resources, that’s it.
Trigger warning for her testimonial.
She also disappeared without a trace after Trump became president.

Fuck off Supreme Court. I have it on good authority that The President is immune to any legal action for any presidential acts.

Well you asked kindly.
I don’t want to have a conversation about this, but if you study a little bit of (ancient) history, sociobiology, look at when our currencies became decoupled from gold standards, then take in the climate data, and our real economic data (not quarter returns of silicon valley, but real metric tons of food produced, how that supply chain works and how it is already being affected by climate change), then figure out where you are on the food order list, and how close you are to sea level. People in Sudan are already experiencing what will come to most of Europe in the next 1 maybe 2 decades. There is so much more to this, but you need a serious stomach to digest it all. I went through it once, and I wouldn’t recommend it, hence my reluctance to share or encourage people to go on this journey.
The most important part is: we really don’t understand much of how complex the myriad of systems that are keeping us at this very nice level of living way above our means. But we do know everything is connected, and through Earth System Science we know that the collapse of a few pillars will cascade into other areas.
Just writing it I can sense how you will push back that that’s not specific enough, and that’s fair, but the full picture took me many years, and I couldn’t point to a single piece of literature or data for you. If you want to know, you’ll find it.
Also be mindful that this isn’t just a knowledge change, but a change to your belief system as well.
But somewhere I think you do know or you wouldn’t respond like that.
We have never in the recorded history of this planet have had an economy that is so vastly disconnected from the resource reality below it. We have never had so much poverty, poor education, healthcare for the lower classes against such an over the top wealth for the few billionaires. We have never been with this many mouths to feed. Most of us are now living in a world with 2 to 3 times as many people than when we were born. Housing and healthy food production did not scale at the same level. There are now more armed conflicts happening simultaneously than ever before. While that is all going on, the climate and our environment are basically done.
I want to believe in positive human collaboration. But absent a miracle and aliens landing with tech far beyond our reach or understanding, these changes are locked in. If we locked down the entire planet and froze the economy tomorrow, these metrics would not change by much.
Most people on this platform will not grow as old as their parents are today.
Enjoy your life, this amazing planet with so many wonders and beautiful people. Create close knit small communities. If you survive, it will be back to basics. Assuming you live in US/Europe, you might have another 10-20 years of relatively good life, though that might be optimistic.
This is a step backwards from M1 in terms of cores, core speed and bus speed. This is not going to feel like an m1 base even.
