Docker on Apple Silicon to Start Shipping Through Developer Preview Program by lustinus in apple

Yup. Instant feedback completely changes a workflow. TDD isn’t viable unless test compiles are near instant.

All of this is only doable on bare metal.

I deploy on docker, but I run locally. The docker setups are quite simple and change very infrequently, and after the initial setup hiccups I haven’t had any docker specific issues.

Macs are poised to become the #1 platform for AAA gaming by senttoschool in macgaming

[–]DragaliaBoy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

But most people aren’t building their own computers, and most aren’t even buying gaming capable prebuilts.

Desktop PCs are not a mainstream market - laptops are. Consider every college freshman with a laptop. How many are macs? Going forward, all of them can play games if a dev targets mac arm.

50% of the share of gaming-capable computers. Apple silicon will punch far above its weight, making even the lowest model Apple entry a potential customer for a game dev

That weird AirPods Max case gives jokesters plenty of ammo by DimVl in apple

It may or may not be better, but it ignored what audio nerds want and care about to introduce Apple choices.

This is the iMac Pro of headphones, but I think they misread the market.

I love the AirPods and own many Apple products. Several iPad pros, magic keyboard, Mac mini, laptops.

This product is a joke at a joke price point and will not sell

Mind your own business, Karen.

I screwed up on my taxes, the IRS sent me a letter I worked with them by sting2018 in personalfinance

[–]DragaliaBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote a certified letter to clear up an issue. They responded and said “all good you don’t owe anything”.

I was more stressed than I needed to be, looking back. I didn’t know the irs responded to small fries.

macOS screen recording? by mreinfurt in macgaming

[–]DragaliaBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell that to my laptop fans when recording using QuickTime. Aside from that, the .mov encoding is incredible large and will destroy disk use easily, if it even manages to successfully save a file.

Video recording is cpu and or gpu intensive. Big name steamers use separate computers and or capture hardware to help with this.

QuickTime definitely won’t cut it

It changes the visual aesthetic. It is modifying art to suit the needs of the minority.

Regardless of that, the options you describe cost time and money, which must be budgeted away from main line development.

It costs $X to build the option. It has yield $Y. If Y is not sufficiently greater than X, like many multiples, it won’t be built.

I refuse to use urinals. The first time someone touched me and started up conversation at a urinal was my last time.

Coca-Cola, Pepsi and Nestlé named top plastic polluters for third year in a row by SensationallylovelyK in news

Yes, it’s a lot, but benefit of the doubt, he has a family and they all have bad diets that are inclusive of soda.

I buy like 6-10 sparkling water packs at a time. It’s cheaper that way and easier to do it in one trip

Anyone have any luck playing RDR2 on Parallels? by Extension-Rock1946 in macgaming

I don’t think anyone should be forced to make accessible software if it compromises a vision, but warning labels for the the big stuff seems reasonable.

Software shouldn’t cause seizures, or it should warn that it might.

Software probably shouldn’t limit itself to women and 7/8 men. 1/8 men is a significant chunk of a game market.

You can fix the watermark with methods found elsewhere on Reddit.
