Changed my life. Even if his theories were wrong, it was eye opening

NAND card is replaceable in a proprietary socket. So you don’t have to worry. It probably is not upgradable but you can definitely replace it.

Yup, grew up in East Syracuse about 2 miles from the Erie Canal. Rode my bike many hundreds of miles east and west as a kid.

You can turn off wrist detection so it stays unlocked.

>If the Apple II was the 70s and the Macintosh was the 80s and NeXTSTEP was the 90s and the iPhone was the 2000s, name the thing of this caliber they did in the 2010s.

Arguably, the iPod was 2000s and the iPhone was 2010s. The iPhone really didn't get started until the iPhone 3GS in middle-2009 so it started slowly but really defined the 2010s for Apple.

That was on a 700 MHz Raspberry Pi 1. On an 1800 MHz Raspberry Pi 400 NEON SIMD the difference was another order of magnitude.

[QUOTE] Comparison - The three 700 MHz Pi 1 main measurements (Loops, Linpack and Whetstone) were 55, 42 and 94 MFLOPS, with the four gains over Cray 1 being 8.8 times for MHz and 4.6, 1.6, 15.7 times for MFLOPS.

The 2020 1800 MHz Pi 400 provided 819, 1147 and 498 MFLOPS, with MHz speed gains of 23 times and 69, 42 and 83 times for MFLOPS. With more advanced SIMD options, the 64 bit compilation produced Cray 1 MFLOPS gains of 78.8, 49.5 and 95.5 times.[/QUOTE]

You can download LiViable from the article author's download page https://eclecticlight.co/virtualisation-on-apple-silicon/

You can run in full-screen mode by doing the normal macOS click on the green stoplight button at the top of the window. The current versions of Apple's virtualization libraries para-virtualize the GPU which runs nearly at full native speed.

It sounds like you want a type 1 VM. Unfortunately none exist for macOS that I'm aware of.

Won’t work anyway. You can’t virtualize an Intel macOS on an Apple silicon VM. Unless you were just looking to transfer your data files. If so you can share a directory that is the external TM disk. (Not sure if you can do that with Parallels but the article author’s Viable works fine.)

It also seems to be on by default on iOS 17.1. It doesn't seem to on by default in MacOS Sonoma (14.1).

Scroll up. Still there. We all need to get used to many more scroll pages.

Never mentions Siri at all. Weird. Newest watches it’s all on device. Maybe he doesn’t know that?

It was always a stupid rumor. Can you imagine if Apple required a different USB-C cable for your new iPhone rather than what already works with iPads and MacBooks? They would never do that.

Most of the software I’ve written has gone into hardware products. Currently working on an embedded Linux system and writing a UI in ReactJS. We are late but only by a couple of months and I have every expectation that the software will be completed. The product has pre-sold about $1M already.

If you want to be working on shipping products, work on embedded stuff.

I’ve done customer facing business software too. Still mostly successful but that is where I’ve seen a few failures. One project I did was writing automated functional/integration tests didn’t see release but I take no blame for that one. The tests worked. The product didn’t.

Notebook check says equivalent to a Core i5-8250U. That is not good in 2023.

Yeah but a 1 GHz N200 yeesh. Everything else looks great.

You can turn it off in macOS 13 as well.

"These apps are also not immune to the same type of panic-based bank run that closed down Silicon Valley Bank and others recently, the agency added."

I'm thinking that worrying about Apple going the way of SVB isn't much of a risk.

Only on Intel Macs which are going away soon (only 2019 Mac Pro is remaining outside of refurbished.)

Apple Silicon doesn't currently have any provision for external graphics cards.
