You previously said "the specs are the same or better for $400 less", but the A13 in the SE blows away the Snapdragon 730 in the Pixel 4a and the price difference is only $50.

Better specs for $400 less, on a Pixel? Name one phone built to last with better specs than the iPhone SE please, I'm listening. I don't care about multiple cameras, OLED displays, 120 Hz or whatever the industry is trying to push

Apple updates for 5 years. No Android manufacturer does that. Google offers 3 years and Samsung does 3 years on their high end flagships (which I don't personally like). Apple is simply on a whole different level in this regard.

I own an Android One device (Mi A2) and in the last year updates were complete garbage. The manufacturer clearly couldn't care less about my (2 years) old device. I'm using LineageOS now and I'm much happier, but I think I&#x

Sure, on Android you don't have to worry about updates because you don't get them. (Coming from an Android user)

Sorry to hear that, I always assumed that at least the ThinkPads were 100% compatible

Do you have any source/documentation for this? I'd really like to read more about it, my understanding has always been that WSL2 was more or less a classic VM on a type-1 hypervisor (Hyper-V)

by Sangeppato 6y ago
I agree, if you just want to use Linux a classic Thinkpad/XPS will play well with it

Sure, it has some nice integrations, but I don't see how this article is in contradiction with what I've said. (To be clear, I didn't mean it as a critique, I like Hyper-V)

It's a headless VM that runs on Hyper-V

I don't think that the possibility to kill yourself in a supercar has much to do with its engine placement. If you're not a trained driver and you can't control oversteer on a RWD car with the ESC turned off, you're prob

This is the main reason why I'm thinking about not getting a MBP as my next laptop. Apple declares a laptop "vintage" after 5 years and doing so it basically kills any possibility to get the machine repaired since they'r

There's a difference though: on macOS the system will say "there's an update, do you want to install it now?". If you select "yes" the system will upgdate and eventually reboot, otherwise you can go on with wha

As I've said, the 13" 2018 I use from time to time can easily manage a 32 buffer, even on Catalina, so your device should be just as good.. My suggestion is to try with a different adapter and maybe with a different DAW such as Re

Lucky you! In the last 6 months Windows tried to install an upgrade, failing endlessly, on both my mother's and sister's laptops. It just tried to upgrade, failed during the reboot, reverted back and booted on the old version, jus

That's weird, reliable low latency audio is one of the few things where I still find the Mac to be pretty solid. I've got a 2015 15" and I've used several times a 2018 13", on both Mojave and Catalina and I have to

MacOS Is still much cleaner though. 99% of apps only put some config files in my ~/Library folder (and homebrew can easily remove them all with the 'zap' command). On Windows, I always don't understand what the heck happ

They're probably selling more 8th gen models with 16GB of RAM than 10th gen models and they don't like it, as simple as that

I thought the same, but actually this method worked for me when I wanted the the Spotlight "Developer" option to show up (the CLT were already installed). I have the Developer panel under "privacy" as well, even if I nev

Can you run everything on the iGPU and only activate the Nvidia GPU to do the render offloading on single apps? If you can, I should try 20.04 on a laptop
22.
by Sangeppato 6y ago
I've tried 19.10 and Arch Linux and the only option still was to statically choose only one GPU and reboot. How does the offloading work now? I haven't heard anything about it

I had no delay neither until I reinstalled iTerm2, I have no idea why
24.
by Sangeppato 6y ago
Maybe you need Xcode, try running "mkdir /Applications/Xcode.app"
25.
by Sangeppato 6y ago
I don't experience a delay in Terminal.app either, but I've tried running the script with a fresh install of iTerm2 while capturing with Wireshark and it does look like the script triggers a connection to an Apple server

The dual GPU is a pain in the butt since Nvidia still doesn't support Optimus on Linux (and probably never will).

I'm not 100% sure about Homebrew, but Scoop uses the "portable" installers every time it's possible, trying to put all the files in a well defined position, controlled by Scoop itself. I think that Homebrew (not Cask) do

Two things: First, this is not about Apple, but rather about Intel. The 10th gen chips are very expensive, but they can't compete with AMD offer and this should be pretty clear to everyone right now. Anyway, this isn't just true f

The only important factor is Pixel density IMHO. And this is where Apple consistently get it right

The Air is not smaller nor thinner than the Pro, it just weights a bit less. On the other hand performance and thermals are just a joke
