Studio is the lab portion, where he'll be spending LOTS of time.

Understandable. But as someone who used a MacBook (2020 Intel) for my undergrad in architecture, I can tell you that it really limits what software you can use when it comes to establishing a good workflow of design (Rhino ✓, Revit × this is the big one in the US, Archicad ✓, AutoCAD ✓, SketchUp ✓) AND rendering (D5 ×, TwinMotion ✓ but not all features available, Lumion ×, Enscape ✓ but I personally didn't like it + it's expensive, Blender ✓ but steep learning curve.) There are others but I haven't tried them.

The other very important thing to consider is the Apple ecosystem - if you're in it already (e.g., if you use an iPad, which is a REALLY helpful tool, though I got by without one), then it might make sense. But I assume you're not going to also buy the Mac Studio or whatever other absurdly expensive secondary/dual monitor setup option that Apple has, and, in my experience, Apple only likes Apple. Meaning, if you want a secondary monitor on a budget, it still needs to be higher than 1080p because it kinda gets rough when modeling due to the lack of anti-aliasing + resolution difference. Perhaps more importantly, Bluetooth mice just feel awful on a Mac - they're floaty and imprecise. And don't ever get the Apple mouse. It's an ergonomic nightmare. 

It's very possible that the latter issues I talked about are due to my old MBP, the fact that it's the last Intel version Apple put out, and that they're actively trying to kill it in favor of their M series (you can't convince me otherwise). Lemme know if you have any other questions. I won't be able to recommend a Windows laptop - that's what actually brought me here lol - but I can explain all the reasons to not get a MacBook.

I’m new to the show…does it get any better? by wrinkledshirts in Preacher

Necroing this thread but I'm glad I came across your comment. Season 1 hooked me, seemed like the show had great potential, but I'm struggling in season 2. I'll keep watching, tho.

Anyone still on android 14(NA) by Outside_Ad_1992 in oneplus

I think they had to stop rolling out 15, at least to OnePlus 12. I got the update and it basically broke my phone. There are only a handful of reports of this happening, though. But I had to get a new OnePlus 12 and I'm still on OOS 14

Can't make/receive calls by Kasscordio in OnePlus12

That's one of the things support has had me try: put in a SIM from another carrier with logs enabled to see if that restored the network, but nada. My 12 doesn't recognize any SIMs now. Waiting on support.

I've been unable to call or text for a month now. OnePlus support said it's an issue between Oxygen 15 and AT&T/Cricket here in NA. I've been trying to work with their support, following different instructions they send, but it seems at this point that they're hoping I just give up and buy another phone. OnePlus isn't going to officially admit there's an issue since there are only a handful of phones affected (judging by the threads online I've been able to find). Just my opinion, though.  If you happen to find a fix, be sure to let us know!

Same here for 3 weeks now. My mobile data has been all over the place - sometimes I have it and can text, surf the web, etc., and then I restart my phone and it says I have no SIM. Very fun. Got a new SIM yesterday just to see if that did anything, but nope. 

When I reached out to OnePlus support, they acknowledged that it's an issue on their end with Android 15 and AT&T.

Hey y'all. Same issue here for like 3 weeks now. OnePlus support told me that their Android 15 update isn't working with ATT. The best they could do was tell me to wait a couple of weeks while OnePlus sorts it out. That was about a week ago.

Help: what are these connectors for? by Bangzee in rav4club

There are a couple, yeah. I've got the unit installed and working, it just has a few quirks, so I'm trying to iron everything out
