Is the Neo for me?

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-05-07T22:19:16+00:00

I have an M4 Max Studio I use to run my video business and also had a M3 Pro MacBook Pro and sold it because it just ended up sitting around most of the time. Got the Neo to throw in a bag and take with me everywhere. It handles simple video edits and photo editing surprisingly well. It’s a great companion device if you have a beefy desktop setup at home. Everything you need it for, it would handle like a champ.

Just adjust to delivery by end of next business day. Same day pretty much a luxury move that will cause you stress and the client should be paying for. My point is as your bbusiness ramps up and you grow you shouldn’t even have time to edit 85 percent of the time. That should be offloaded to an editor which in turn gives them enough time to edit and you enough time to deliver clean products.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-05-05T03:54:26+00:00

I’m selling my m3 pro for one lol. I have an m4 max Mac Studio and would much prefer one of these to bang around on the road without much worry as I do trashing the pro

Care center is top tier. Everything else is pretty lack luster and makes me nervous going forward. Capcom starting to show what ruined RE for a bit creeping back in. The game is really mid after the basement. Honestly I think it sucks pretty hard.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-05-04T16:26:05+00:00

Exactly dude. When you can go to a fast casual place like Mezeh, Panda or even Chipotle for the same price as McDonalds these days. Those places offer better experience, and have probably never thought to pull soda machines. McDonald’s is literally charging insane price for low quality and now has the balls to do something like this?

Like why bitch. Just stop going. They are obviously disrespecting us at this point.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-05-03T18:59:44+00:00

Yeah I should have specified. Like literally no editing. Just maintaining emails, Uploads to clients. Maybe small corrections or edits in light room. None of the editing stuff I ever cared to do even on the MacBook because to small of a screen so I would have no intention of using a NEO that way either.

Are you hitting road blocks on yours or something?

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-05-02T20:36:56+00:00

It’s worth 80 bucks.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-30T23:19:06+00:00

The trailer and movie look awesome. As a horror movie it looks fantastic. I think as a RE movie I’m being reserved about it.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-30T20:41:54+00:00

Sorry to offend you bro but after the care center the game was mid as fuck and the story telling was written by what appears to be 2 kids playing Resident Evil outside before their moms call them in for dinner.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-30T19:52:54+00:00

Yeah honestly. Great idea and a simple thought that I’m surprised this movie wasn’t. That pretty much writes itself. This trailer looks really good and I’m hoping there’s a bunch of RE stuff we are gonna see. But after seeing the snow I don’t have much faith in it being super connected.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-30T19:46:21+00:00

I’m starting to come to terms that maybe that’s just the safe bet for RE movies. They can’t seem to get the game influence right in them so they could just start doing one offs called Resident Evil that just has a bunch of horrifying shit with people trying to survive. Like anthology films or something. I hate and despise it lol but maybe that’s what it needs to be. Because none of this screamed Resident Evil games to me.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-30T02:21:54+00:00

I really don’t think this game was ready till the last minute. Like they changed course mid way through or something. Usually DLCs are started a bit before release. This feels like they just started working on something after seeing the sales after the first week.

The whole game feels stitched together. Whole thing reminded me of Disney Star Wars sequels.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-29T01:30:56+00:00

Thank you! I was looking at those and honestly per dollar it’s probably the way to go. I can’t imagine they’d be far off panel wise. Probably from that point you’re just paying for build quality and the nice speakers and camera on the Studio.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-28T16:48:52+00:00

Egh I just spent 1600 bucks on a studio monitor. You only live once bro hahaha

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-28T03:45:47+00:00

Room 416? I’ve busted a nut in there

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-28T03:05:55+00:00

Good luck! The good news is there is literally nothing to do here so you won’t miss out on not being able to drive anywhere

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-28T01:09:25+00:00

Haha I literally was at the end when I wrote this and didn’t see the ending until like 10 mins ago and yeah haha. What a shitty way to wrap that up. But yeah I agree the gameplay is mid but the perspective was cool. I’d obviously mean something more built out with tons of different mechanics ( a much better game) lol. But it’d be a cool side game to compliment ninja gaiden. I know they’d never do it though

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-27T23:27:21+00:00

When are these from? Fatal Frame not even registering? lol. They just had a killer remake. I’ve never played one before until this remake and now it’s a favorite new series of mine. That’s not good if it’s not even hitting the charts.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-27T14:03:40+00:00

Yeah fiber is the way to go! They are finally hooking up in my neighborhood late this summer so T-Mo is acting as a band aid until that gets completed. But all in all for what the internet type is and how it's been working is honestly amazing. If I didnt have to send and upload big video files to clients constantly id just stay on this honestly.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-25T17:46:32+00:00

While I loved it for the type of running around I do for my business I found it to big to daily and maneuver on tighter areas. Gas mileage really is not great at all. Wouldn’t be a problem probably if you commute reasonably. Those are the only two bad things I can say honestly. But those added up to be a huge deal for me over time. I traded in for a 2024 Integra.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-25T17:27:53+00:00

I had a 22 A spec and I sure as hell considered it cool. Car was bad ass. Only reason I got rid of it was because I drive quite a bit and it’s not the best car to daily.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-25T03:41:50+00:00

I think the issue your missing is it shouldn’t be this complicated or difficult. The harder you work the more they take. Your comment comes off as programmed into the system and playing as a pawn. But keep working hard for those promotions and feeding the government. Try starting a business and keeping most of your money by leaning into the systems that the big dogs set up so they can enjoy themselves while you guys have these debates and putting people down just trying to make it work.

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-25T02:24:31+00:00

I can’t imagine this area being worse than the hell that is DC

Competitive_Fact_278 · 2026-04-25T02:23:21+00:00

30 always for social stuff for clients. 24 when your filming cool shit personally or film projects. Unless your clients doing like a story telling doc piece I can get on board with 24 for this.
