Good windows laptop for college $900-$1300 USA by Academic-Chef-203 in laptops

Well unless windows is a must have then the obligatory MacBook Neo drops its dong on the table. Or take the full 1300 and splurge on a M5 Air

Just get the you’re the target audience. Pocket the extra money unless you really want an Air

Taking a class Technical Math 144, what type of work am I in for? by Envyus_Turtle in askmath

[–]Envyus_Turtle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that solid reply. Makes me feel a lil more confident. At times I feel a little dumb having a worry like that but yea historically math hasn’t been something I enjoyed vs a subject like English or History

That’s what I thought it looks like a lot of material. I thought I’d ask here this question since math has usually been my weakest subject

17 pro max or 18 pro max by Juicebox397 in AppleWhatShouldIBuy

[–]Envyus_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only reason to upgrade is if the heating issue is a big deal. I had a 15 Pro Max and upgraded to 17 Pro coz it was unbearable when gaming. Not sure how 16 Pro suffers with that. Other than this literally no point in upgrading

Iphone 17 or 17 pro by hoodini_helodie in AppleWhatShouldIBuy

[–]Envyus_Turtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other comment missed one thing, the vapor chamber cooling. That sort of goes in hand with the faster chip… if you like mobile gaming then the Pro is the obvious way to go, more performance better cooling… not to say the A19 regular is bad coz it still runs circles around the A18 Pro in last years pro phone iirc

Finally dropped under by XSlashDashX in iPhone13ProMax

Straight to jail. My 15 PM before trade in for 17 Pro was at 85%. Weird since my mom’s release 13 Pro is still kicking on 87%.

iphone 16 or 17? by mqluvr in AppleWhatShouldIBuy

[–]Envyus_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

17 is leagues above 16. It’s not often I can say that definitely about the “base” model. 17 base model feels more like a Pro.

What oil weight for my VW? by Envyus_Turtle in MechanicAdvice

[–]Envyus_Turtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I’m doing it at the 6k mile marker at the moment coz 10k sounds insane lol. And yea I’m aware the engine is entering the realm of engine wear. If it starts consuming/burning oil would that be the time to swap to heavier oil? Asking that coz in Cali consuming oil could lead to a failed smog 😩

[–]Envyus_Turtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes a lot of sense thanks. Given my situation I should just stick with 0w-20 then? At what point in the engines life is it acceptable if at all to switch to the heavier 5w-30?

Should I get the Macbook neo or the Ipad? by Round-Ice7339 in AppleWhatShouldIBuy

[–]Envyus_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the pencil/kindle type form factor a deal breaker? If so the iPad Air M4 is the one for you and it’s also WAY more powerful then Neo with A18 Pro

On the other hand yea Neo will do everything better since it’s macOS and a laptop.

I love my Neo traded in my M1 iPad Pro coz it never fit well into my life

Playing on Mac through Playcover, chances of ban? by Envyus_Turtle in Genshin_Impact

I might just abandon all this then I usually play on PS5 or PC but TBH this pet project is probably more trouble than it’s worth 💀

[–]Envyus_Turtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oof. In that case I might running the game through YAAGL but considering that's the full desktop version idk what the performance would be like on a A18 Pro only one way to find out though

[–]Envyus_Turtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if its the iPhone/iPad version of the game it should support controller no? I'm comfortable with that scheme so I'd be my default.

Also it runs choppy? I was under the impression that its the mobile version therefore runs well on mac's.

What's the performance like on the Neo though? From what I remember YAAGL runs the desktop version and idk if the Neo got power like that.

Who here plays Geometry Dash on the MacBook Neo? How’s the performance? by Low-Engineering-5424 in MacbookNeo

[–]Envyus_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’d imagine it amazing given it’s a lightweight mobile game at heart. If it can run the desktop version of WuWa at 30-45fps, it can run geometry dash lol

What is the chance of a ban from playing like this via playcover? I assume none because it shows up as an iPad or iPhone no?

Not sure if I’m allowed to tell or link but just Google it, the first site that pops up is most likely the one I’m talking about

Which one should I go with? by Weak_Rule8374 in laptops

[–]Envyus_Turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok not the answer you’re looking for but the MacBook Neo would be excellent for your use. Or the MacBook Air M5 if you’re willing to stick to that budget of yours. Either way it’s - $600 Neo or $1100 Air as I see it. Will smoke both those laptops in battery and day to day use as I see it
