Considering the PS4 portable that was posted recently and that the m4 mini’s size I don’t think it would be difficult to shove one into a small case with a battery. The selection is the issue as running most anything will require emulation until Win on ARM becomes more supported by developers.

While 8GB can be enough to operate simple stuff, it can slow some other stuff does. I saw someone post a FinalCut benchmark and it took 3 times longer on the 8GB machine.

And because the memory is shared with the gpu, it is limiting games from being ported to the platforms. The only console with less is the 7 year old switch. The Xbox series s has 10 and it is holding back the xbox platform against the ps5 which has 16.

It is really holding back what developers can do on the platforms.

PCs are moving towards 32GB now.

Why? There a limits on health care privacy privilege. Also with regards to with attorneys as well.

I suppose that is true. Intel seems to think so as well as their low power n100 is about the performance of a 1500x.

Sure, not much per gen, but if you compare say a 1700x vs the current 9700x, you are roughly looking at a 3x improvement in single and multicore performance increase.

The software package on black magic’s website indicates that the decklink mini monitor 4k is supported on Apple Silicon macs and macOS Somona. So it should work.

It should probably work fine. TB3 is backwards compatible with TB2. Just uses a different connector.

Ok, I see where you are coming from. I agree that it is a niche product category and I don’t understand what Meta and Apple see in AR & VR and am real confused why Apple of all companies decided to enter it like this. They usually avoid niche products. I enjoy VR occasionally and think it is great, but not enough to put hundreds of millions into it.

From what I see Valve is probably the only one taking a proper approach. They have a platform and hardware for it and support it, but aren’t really going from the mountain tops yelling this is the greatest next thing. To be fair they have been supporting it since , what 2015ish.

Surgeons are already trialing using them with surgery. Additionally I’d use it for video consumption, but not at that price. A portable movie theater sounds cool.

Just because me or you don’t have a personal use for something doesn’t mean they have “no use case”.

A lot of developers bought these. I’d classify the Apple Vision Pro as an early adopter type product right now. Hardware capabilities look impressive, but software has rough edges from what I have read. I don’t think Apple really has a feel where this device is going to go yet either.

Boggles my mind. Some even have 1440p/1600p screens. At those size of a screen it is a negligible difference in picture quality when gaming.

Honestly it just sounds like they are using a LOT of reverb on it to me.

They aren’t ads. They are “App Promotions”.

That security concern is there whether it is for this or something else.

Me no, but for most users with only windows installed and not dual booting, having it automatically doing it would probably be fine and bailing out when it detects a more advance configuration such as extra partitions would make sense. Then display a message about manual intervention is required or something.

If it can be done manually, I don’t see any reason it can’t be done automatically. Other than just not wanting to allocate the person-power to it.

iPad needs this way more than iPhone as a platform. Not saying iPhone doesn’t need it, just that the benefit is bigger on iPad. Both need to be opened up worldwide, not just in the EU.

I agree. If anything this is going to put pressure on the EU DMA to crack down on Apple. Apple is using their position to effect competition in Europe and this is the result. Free elsewhere and costs money in the EU.

I will just say it uses an ARM A5 which was introduced in 2011. It is 32bit processor which could be problematic as most linux distros are moving or have moved to 64-bit. And most importantly only has USB2.0 ports.

In the US I have had similar experiences walking along tracks, though the trains were just transporting the coal and they used diesel engines.
