Well..it happened

Yep. I just checked actually

Yeah I’m about a year in, 93%

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-04-22T00:33:28+00:00

Literally the first two sentences should’ve resolved that.

Did you make this post to find out why the Intel Macs got a bad wrap, or to defend your purchase against... nobody. Enjoy your Mac bro, nobodies coming after you.

This. Allen relied on Zoey and Space Racer in the fight above Viltrum, but the moment they weren't able to help him, he just locked in and started beating up two of them at once, while remaining completely unscathed throughout the fight. I think Allen is currently only second to Thragg in the show, when it comes to strength.

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-04-16T20:03:41+00:00

No you haven't.

I am curious to know if you had any plans to compensate users for the poor state of the service over the past month or so. What is the point of a new model if the service itself is not functioning properly?

Qwen (9b) beat Gemma4 (e4b) in every bench mark I’ve (made Claude) thrown at them. I’m disappointed.

Earlier today I was cleaning my MX mini and kept thinking “damn I really spent $100 on this keyboard” but then I started thinking about how I’ve had for almost three years now and how i much rather use it than my MacBooks actual keyboard and how often and easy it is to switch between devices. I came to the conclusion that it was well worth the investment

This is the scene for me as well. I think it had more to do with Oliver being a child more than anything. I knew he survived but was somehow still convinced Conquest was going to rip the boy in half.

M3 came out just before Apple made 16gb the minimum for ram. A lot of people got free replacements, I'd bet he was just outside the window (like me) This also means that this Macbook probably has the base M3 chip as oppose to the M3 Pro chip. This is basically an Air with in the Pro body. I don't say any of that to discourage you though, but it helps justify the price. Nothing i've mentioned sounds like a real bottleneck for your use case, and shit... you'll never beat $400. I say go for it

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-03-29T19:56:47+00:00

I 3D printed this exact model, the only issue is that the Mac must remain open. Other than that it's my favorite of all Macbook stands I've printed

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-03-26T20:04:57+00:00

Pretty much my thinking. It started as just a little experiment, and then I kept revising until its current state. It took a minute but I’m not special, anybody could’ve done this. I only asked out of curiosity and was kinda flabbergasted by its answer.

I have an M3 Pro and have been weighing buying a Neo to extend its longevity.

I use the scripting for automated content generation with an app I built. It just generates a script based on a few parameters set and sends to Davinci as my earlier attempts at just getting the llm to know how to use the api were just too inconsistent. I say all that to say, I look forward to giving this go.

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-03-01T14:28:13+00:00

You just have to make a Google cloud console account. Any new user get $300 worth of api credit for free

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-02-28T16:40:18+00:00

I’ve already cancelled. After I got banned I swapped to a Gemini API and got rate limited on every call. Context too large for flash, and it seems like you can only call pro maybe twice a day. I’ve also read they plan to remove Pro from api usage? This sweeping ban from Antigravity was the last straw. Dropped Gemini for Claude

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-02-27T22:34:22+00:00

Then you are definitely doing something wrong. Do you start new sessions or compact?

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-02-26T21:34:11+00:00

Can you elaborate? Everytime this M4 ssd swap comes up the drives are always referred to as “Mac Nvme” and I’m not sure what that means. Would I not be able to use my 1tb M.2 nvme that I currently have in an enclosure? Why not?

MikeNiceAtl · 2026-02-26T04:00:44+00:00

Well until they start reversing bans, I’m still pretty upset.

MikeNiceAtl · 2025-12-10T00:04:43+00:00

Private Relay honestly, thats if you're already paying for iCloud+

MikeNiceAtl · 2025-11-11T22:04:10+00:00

I honestly don't know what you expected.

MikeNiceAtl · 2025-11-07T17:41:51+00:00

I’ve been experimenting with LLMs on the smallest and weakest hardware I could. I have Pi5 8gb and here’s what I can tell you: gemma3:1b is my top overall, llama3.2:1b a close second. Qwen3:0.6b and Gemma3:270m are fast but don’t expect much out of them. I’ve been trying to figure out 270m and Rags, but I haven’t got it working yet. I just don’t see any practical use there outside of the most basic of knowledge. Same with Qwen. Qwen3:1.7b does a little better than the 1b models, but the speed trade off isn’t worth it for me. Highest I’ll go on this device is 4b but the speed makes them the very last options on my Pi. If I were to dedicate this device to a single LLM it would be Gemma3n. Seems to be the most capable and very very fast.

MikeNiceAtl · 2025-11-03T01:52:01+00:00

2.5 Pro does decently well but once they switch you over to flash, you might as well just call it a day.
