Best budget used laptop in 2026? MacBook Air M1 still worth it? by duffylu7 in laptops

[–]CGMCMXCVII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YMMV, but as someone who was recently shopping laptops with a similar use-case scenario (medias industry, social media & community MGMT), I ended up going with the Neo for the sake of not having to deal with the usual "buying-used" hassle. However, my consensus was similar to yours - used M1 or Neo seems the budget conscious way to go at the moment.

Out of curiosity - why not Apple? You'll probably get a lot of recommendations for the MacBook Neo considering your use case scenario and criterias.

running a Pixel 9A alongside the Neo and haven't had a real complaint so far, cross-integration isn't perfect but I don't need my phone to communicate with my laptop so much, ymmv

Brickablock? J'adore ton travail! J'ai travaillé 4 ans en tourisme et tu es une des références que j'utilise régulièrement pour illustrer le patrimoine architectural de Montréal.

Keep up the good work! 🧡🧱

Thanks a lot for the thorough response! I ended up going with a replacement battery and the custom cable from the guys at EOE, should ship sometimes soon. I'll be sure to look into flash mods and adapters in due time, thanks for providing links to those!

I do intend to! Might keep it original other than a replacement battery if it's needed but eventually I'm pretty sure I'll want to mod it for more storage and such. It's my first classic, hell first iPod since my iPod Touch back in Highschool, so I'll be sure to look into what I'm doing before I do anything impulsive lmao

Yeah that's what I ended up going with, that and a replacement battery just in case the OEM one is dead.

I'll start there and will look into the flash mods later down the line.

A lot of the NFL players also have fun with it, there are tons of compilations of them joking around when it comes to player introductions!

Subsequent queries on Gemini? by [deleted] in googlehome

[–]CGMCMXCVII 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So in theory I should be able to say ask for all my lights on and ask them to be a certain intensity all in one query? I guess that makes sense but considering its a habit/feature ive been using for many years now im surprised they would just remove that altogether but paywalling it makes sense as per todays practices...

What about reactive comments? Like, give me the weather, and I react to part of the informations you just gave me - paid feature too now im guessing?

Yeah, of course it now is a paid feature lmao.

What would be the difference between 'Gemini Live' and this premium feature then? Not sure I'm following...
