It's unsustainable for US to not sell its chips to China because US foreign policy is not popular? That's a very strange logic you got there buddy.
Man, last 3-4 years Apple dramatically improved their design philosophy without needing to sacrifice their sleekness. Bigger fans, not afraid to make devices bulkier for better cooling, instead of obstructing airflow to corners so much that it becomes ineffectual they instead opted for nice big grills like XDR Display. The new approach screams practicality, yet Magic Mouse is still this utter dogshit, from the era when everyone was afraid to say no to Jony Ive.
They probably have like 500 people working just on ergonomics of their devices, they have to realize how utterly impractical it is to use for more than half an hour of work a day. Something like Logitech G pro wireless with the powerplay pad in Apple style of design would be a thousand times better. Magic Keyboard is slightly less bad, but still in 2023 having no height adjustment or backlight makes it a pretty piss poor product. Proper mechanical switches with different types of keys would be nice too. I hope they do a proper refresh of these products, they are so out of line with the current Apple products.
Those are some pretty decent results actually. Although even if it was twice as fast, it still needs to search for a market. Macs have had a good value when their HW configurations were pretty awful simply because of the tight OSX integration and the ecosystem. And with x86 you get the widest most complete software ecosystem. ARM Windows is still very distant third and laptop Linux market is hardly worth mentioning. Though I think the 23W version undervolted could be great in an Android tablet.
Well, that's a first, I am shocked that Nvidia even allowed them to do this given how much they have controlled the uniformity of their recent cards. Bit dubious about the application, PCI-E 4.0 SSDs are already pretty hot and slapping in on top of a GPU seems crazy, but the idea is pretty cool.
That's a fun goal π€£
