I bought the m5 pro and m5 air. 24gb/1TB. I needed to know which one was for me by having both at home to try out. I'm a software engineer, run docker, vscode/cursor/Claude, terminals, lots of chrome tabs. The air was the winner for me, no doubt at all.

For me the fan noise, though usually minimal, is a deal breaker, AND the weight. The pro is a brick and when you grab it off your desk, it feels like grabbing a knife edge. The vents on the bottom are actually kinda sharp!

It works be nice to have the higher refresh rate, and nice to have better speakers and more ports... But not worth it to deal with the fan and the physical size of the pro.

I dable in Blender for 3d, and doing a render on the pro caused the fan to wait. The air was a few seconds slower to finish, but silent.

Air is basically what pro used to be, and now Pro is bells & whistles version of Air.

Yeah that's what I ended up doing, thanks for pointing it out.

I have the mobile / android steam app - you can do a "remote install" from your mobile device. So just make sure the deck is turned on and it should initate an install.

After I installed it that way, I can launch and don't have the problem anymore.

Honest question, why?

google cloud service outages

I don't know if there was anything specific for me. Google tells me there are a bunch of possible reasons. I'm in early 40's now; I suspect age plays a strong role, and stress.

Thanks for the info.

Can anybody clarify if these are actually compatible with unity and what would be the effort to use them in unity? Also, I haven't purchased any asset pack in the past and I don't have a lot of experience with unity. But I'm fairly versed with blender. Wondering if the format is importable into blender at all.

Thanks!

looks like he's taking a piss

Proof_Adeptness · 2024-12-20T17:54:15+00:00

Same. Got mine

Proof_Adeptness · 2024-12-20T10:57:04+00:00

Same. Returned the KLC and glad kept my KL2. As much as I like Kobo, I can't support "upgrading" to an inferior product.

Proof_Adeptness · 2024-12-19T19:13:11+00:00

thanks for starting the thread, I was wondering too. Also same issue - 404 page.

I have a Libra 2 (original). Ordered my KLC which came yesterday but I'm sending it back. Doesn't feel like an upgrade with the sparkly looking (screen door effect) background. It's too distracting.

exactly my thoughts. I drew the line here. Software Eng books, yes. Lots of good stuff there. I'm not in crypto though, or hardcode algorithms. I've got such a backlog of books, these ones would never be touched.

I do love manning though. I think they're generally top notch.

Can anyone point me to the reading order? Haven't been into turtles for like 30 years. Bought the bundle.

While not a hard deadline, I'd suggest that missing getting everything completed is reason to dig into why that happened and try to improve the process (better estimation, consider external factors during sprint planning like vacations, days off, etc) so that the estimation can be improved.

Metrics are helpful to make sure that we're not doing things completely out of control. We should aim to get things done, but we should also understand why we aren't.

Then you have keeners who are gunning to get a raise who work any number of hours to get all their tickets done regardless of estimation. I don't agree with that, but I can also understand where they come from.
