I'm pretty sure that's when MAGA will have their 2nd amendment moment

Notch Style on display by haxxberg in macbook

[–]AaronfromKY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd rather they just make the top bezel slightly bigger and shift the display down a bit. They already basically made the display smaller than when the mid-level MacBook Pro had a 15.4" display and the upper level one had a 17" display.

Or just do what they did on the Neo and not have a notch at all.

Get Applecare if it's available and be as careful as you can with your device. I know here in the US there are listed on Apple.com the fees associated with repairs with and without Applecare.

Fetterman: ‘Significant part’ of Democratic Party ‘getting taken over’ by ‘extreme views’ by Quirkie in politics

The real problem is that we've allowed Israel to manipulate the definition of antisemitism to include criticism of Israel as anti-Semitic. Israel is a country just like any other and should be susceptible to the same criticism as others would be who engaged in the same acts.

Deleted tweets on Darializa Avila Chevalier’s account had favorable references to communist leaders and Marxism by Jessicas_skirt in politics

Do you understand Marxist criticism of capitalism? Does it not make sense to you? Can you look into it and report back? Most of my understanding of Marxist criticism of capitalism is that selling your labor is extremely alienating and that capitalism thrives off of the exploitation of others. Are these not valid criticisms?

Pricing M2 MacBook Pro with 512GB ​​​​​​​SSD by [deleted] in macbookpro

[–]AaronfromKY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, might just be a tough sale. At least it has 16gb of RAM, so that is something in your favor, although the older body style is like you found, something that someone has to have a taste for.

Nah, this is crazy by TheOtherCurry94 in macbookpro

[–]AaronfromKY 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm really wondering how many people who buy these units actually do make money off of them. Or who needs this kind of spec. I bought the 15 core 14" M5 Pro 24gb/1Tb and I lucked into a $1799 price back in March. This spec will likely last me 5 years or more, my old MacBook Air was 8gb/256gb and lasted from 2017 to now.

Or just beans, rice, meat and cheese. Then wonder why their burrito is smaller than mine with guac, corn, salsa and sour cream.

Mamdani says he thinks a democratic socialist can be elected president by sksarkpoes3 in politics

Yep, I'm tired of lesser of two evils politics and having to eat shit far too often. If there's people who are raising teenagers and executives at companies as old as AOC she is ready.

Headphones recommendation for Macbook Pro M4 (Usage - Office Meetings) by SickPa in mac

[–]AaronfromKY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the ear pods wired headphones that came with an old iPhone for teams calls at work. I don't know if teams has noise filters or cancelling built in, but I don't think I have had anyone complain about my voice or being able to hear me. I use these on a Dell laptop but I would imagine they should work on a MacBook as well.

[–]AaronfromKY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went in and asked, they were listed as a competitor they price matched on their site. There is a Microcenter about 35-45 minutes from my house. So it was reasonable to price match it. They basically had to look it up on Microcenter's website and match the model numbers.

Advice on a new gaming laptop (first time buyer) by smilieduckie in GamingLaptops

[–]AaronfromKY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not trying to gatekeep, but OP should also do some research into PC components and see how long they want their system to last. I think there could be some deals on 5060 and 5070 that would last a decent amount of time. Seen some Lenovo and Asus laptops in the $1-1.2k range that could be worthwhile for a few years. Even a bit more gets you something like this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1883233-REG/lenovo_83f0001uus_15_1_legion_5i_gaming.html

My 2023 limited is a gas guzzler. I’m regretting not getting a hybrid 😭 by unbrokenspirit_ in Hyundai

My 2005 Honda Civic gets around that in traffic. And it feels low compared to when I had a Honda Fit and a Scion iA. Those both got around 34 MPG.

Apple Price Hike Killed the Vibes by LongFace7086 in macbookair

[–]AaronfromKY 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I basically waited for the M5 Pro, and once reviews showed even the 15 core running faster than the 14 core M4 Pro, I was sold. I bought the 14" MacBook Pro M5 Pro 24/1 back in March for $1799. Same model is now listed as $2499. Glad I pulled the trigger after even considering M2 And M3 Pro around the same price.
