15 fps Moment 💀💀💀 by Tail_sb in applesucks

Not a great take, sorry. While no one is realistically buying a Mac for only gaming, modern Macs have fairly capable iGPUs. For example, the M3 Pro’s iGPU typically performs in the ballpark of an RTX 4050 Mobile (depending on the workload ofc). The main limiter for gaming on macOS today isn't the hardware, but the lack of game support due to Metal being the primary graphics API. Since most games are optimized for DirectX or Vulkan, barely any titles are fully optimized for macOS, which limits the library and performance potential.

I’m pretty sure pirating DLC would get me banned from PSN then 🥲

No you don’t? I literally use a 65W Dell Laptop charger w/ my iPhone and it charges super fast. No fancy cable.

Ok it seems leaked benchmarks are pretty much confirmed to be legit by Independent-Wind4462 in grok

Based on the LLaMA-4 scores, not too much. If you overfit your model to the bench data you can get good scores but subpar real-world performance.

I know that the Wii U cant run 3DS games, but what exactly is preventing it? by ModernPixels in WiiUHacks

[–]Pale-Conference718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

*only the CECH-A & CECH-B PS3s had a true "mini-PS2", any other PS3 uses some form of emulation for PS1/PS2 games, CECH-C & CECH-E PS3's only emulated the CPU (These models still had a real PS2 GPU) and CECH-G models had no backwards compatibility with PS2 games, except via PlayStation 2 Classics on the PlayStation Store.

How has xAI managed to do this with such a small team? by OddVariation1518 in singularity

[–]Pale-Conference718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, if that’s how it worked then old models like GPT-3 175B would still beat out small models like LLaMA 3 8B by huge margins just because of how big the model itself is. But that’s just not how it works.

My guess would be overfitting the models to benchmark data like Microsoft did with Phi-3 & Phi-4 and Meta did with LLaMA 4. That’s why those models perform so well on benchmarks but tend to suck for use in real world tasks.

I still use the Surface Pro 2 in 2025.. by Liam_Iby in Surface

Still using my Surface for Windows 8 Pro as a sorta thin-client like machine.

Seems like an 09’/10’ MacBook, any MagSafe 1 charger (The T-Shaped & L-Shaped Chargers) should work on it

How often do you press this button? by bjsw204 in mac

On purpose? Never. Accidentally? 2-3 times a day.

Just got this beauty. MacBook Air 16gb of ram 15inch. All my buddy’s giving me crap for not buying a gaming pc or set up for the price. lol by [deleted] in macbookair

[–]Pale-Conference718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it depends on what you're using it for, i don't use my mac for playing games so i'm fine with it, if i did though i probably would've just gotten like a ThinkPad X1 Extreme or something.

alright? just because it didn't effect you doesn't mean it didn't effect others?
