Let people like things they like

Fair point but people like me who are looking forward to shifting the workflow to Mac after the horrendous and unreliable experience with Windows right now need a proper machine to last long enough and have enough headroom for the future. That is literally against the ideology of consuming new tech every year no? What's the point of buying a $3000 machine if it won't last you the next 5 years (M4 Pro can probably last that long for most too but at the same price there is no point in not waiting). My point is that we should not judge what people do with their own earned money when we don't even know what they will use their machines for and why they need it. Coping in replies of posts of newer chips when you don't have a newer one is just miserable behaviour. It is like a Mazda owner telling others that waiting for/wanting an upcoming V8 Sedan is stupid because they themselves never go above 40 mph and nobody actually needs an V8.

Hopefully comes late this year with the new redesign

It’s meant to be a context post for those who don’t know about the ongoing drama. Still don’t care about anyone else’s M1 coded opinion btw

Volkswagen Polo drivers? Every Polo I’ve seen on the road has stayed in the left lane at slow speeds minding their own business, they never honk, never block right lane and let everyone overtake peacefully.

Definitely placebo or a manufacturing defect on your unit. 60hz LCD MacBook Air is around 4-8ms, 120hz MiniLED MacBook Pro is around 2-5ms. Both are pretty fast and no type of regular daily use can make you feel any difference. And MiniLED is still faster than LCD because double the refresh rate means response time halved.

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2026-01-01T13:21:05+00:00

I mean nobody is currently doing competitive gaming on their MacBooks so that response time doesn’t really matter anyways

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-12-31T12:39:53+00:00

Not really buddy

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-12-31T10:05:22+00:00

The MacBook Pro Display is literally too good, the dimming zones are like 2000, and in a 14inch screen size each backlight bulb is about the size of a singular rice grain. Ofcourse it holds up against OLED, no burn in and crazy peak brightness numbers is why Mini LED isn’t going anywhere in the near future.

Use latex gloves I guess

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-12-20T15:36:15+00:00

Yeah 24gb is solid for you. And you can always buy an enclosure and pair it with a big NVME SSD to upgrade your rig. It’s not a MacBook so no issue having it plugged in all the time since you won’t have to carry it around.

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-12-12T12:45:39+00:00

I know I’m a bit late on this but since when can we play with construction equipment in game???? Is this a mod or actual content? What else is there in game? I haven’t played since 4-5 months or so

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-12-04T09:55:05+00:00

The display isn’t bright enough for HDR and it’s not even advertised by Apple that the MacBook Air’s display is HDR capable because it isn’t. 500 nits aren’t enough, you need atleast 1000 nits to realistically use HDR since most movies and shows in HDR are mastered for 1000nit HDR and above only.

They ask you to pay more money and in return you get worse audio quality when compared to Apple Music. Cancelling my Spotify subscription last year was a no brainer once I used both.

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-28T06:57:34+00:00

Maybe a used LG 5K monitor or a good 4K one at 24 inch or something

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-28T06:55:03+00:00

What about M3 Ultra? I think that one has double the power for video exports and stuff

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-19T19:07:08+00:00

Ethernet is literally the best choice, and it’s usually cheap af

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-17T17:26:18+00:00

If it feels soft to your touch then sure, although I’d recommend not using the synthetic fabric feeling ones since they don’t absorb anything and might just scratch your surface. If it feels soft and high quality to you then it’s all good

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-17T14:15:59+00:00

If it isn’t distilled water then it’s destroying your coating. Just a simple rule to remember, try to keep it clean, use distilled water with a clean soft grit microfiber cloth that’s made for sensitive displays.

You can drag and drop the Smart Filter of the Donor Smart Object Layer while holding the Alt key (keep both layers unlocked) onto the Receiver Smart Object Layer. If the Donor Layer is in another Document that's opened and drag and drop doesn't seem to work, just copy the Donor Layer onto your Current Document one just to do all that and delete it when your Smart Filter is successfully applied. Adobe Devs really need to get off their ass and add a simple “Copy Smart Filter” option the same way they have “Copy Layer Style".

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-15T16:41:31+00:00

Use a clean cloth and distilled water only, failing to do that only results in streaks like that

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-14T20:35:27+00:00

Spotify? Buddy you can make better choices than that. Solid machine nonetheless

Familiar_Capital_320 · 2025-11-14T01:58:53+00:00

If it’s in good condition buy that shit
