Only if you live near a store with it in stock. They aren't shipping that item.

Fantastic! Load the Altair Z80. At the CP/M prompt type: 'DIR' to see your files. Try out: 'MBASIC STARTREK' - be patient while it loads and then go save the galaxy! Just like old times :)

Hey, moving from cassette tape to floppy was also pretty awesome - random access speed demon!

WA state it is an extra $56 every time you renew for Real ID

The LG only has 60Hz refresh - this Dell has 120Hz and so seems to actually take advantage of the extra thunderbolt bandwidth.

The default context window using ollama or lmstudio is small, but you can easily quadruple the default size while running gpt-oss-20b on a 24GB Mac.

As someone who purchased their first M-series Mac this year (M4 pro), I've been thrilled to discover how well it does with local genAI tasks to produce text, code and images. For example openai/gpt-oss-20b runs locally quite well with 24GB memory. If I knew beforehand how performant the Mac would be for these kinds of tasks, I probably would have purchased more RAM in order to load larger models. Performance for genAI is a function of GPU, # of GPU cores, and memory bandwidth. I think your biggest gains are going from a base chip to a pro/max/ultra version with the greater gpu cores and greater bandwidth.

I just create new orgs to group related repositories together. Works well for a small team.

That's pretty much how all laser particle counters work... except the good ones use a fan and a chamber. Guess we'll have to wait and see how this compares to the reference sensors.

Also wonder how the sensor can stay clean without a fan. I suppose mounting upside down would help. Other fanless designs require periodic cleaning.

A website in the US doesn't deliver anything to the UK, it hands off some packets to a router in the US. Why is the website responsible for what all the interconnecting routers do? If a person from the UK were to visit an adult bookstore in the US, the bookstore owner isn't at fault if the customer decides to move certain material across national boundaries.

It does remove any incentive for a thief to steal a Macbook. They can't strip it for parts and sell those parts if they won't work.
