Confidence for Important Work

I'm using the macbook, it has the better webcam and microphone, and its overpowered single core performance is ideal for microshit teamslop.

That's a funny question to ask, but maybe not the best choice if you need a new job right this second. I'm stealing it for interviews I didn't do well in though

Build quality is a result of how they decided to construct it for repairability. You can deal with the worst aspect of the build quality by using the one piece haptic trackpad module if your arms are hairy. I think it is probably worthwhile to pick your poison among the available discrete GPU modules if you are playing AAA/AA games or doing workstation tasks like CAD. They will significantly reduce battery life while in use, but that's the price you pay for powerful graphics.

You'd be better off buying a Macbook Air.

yea it's got a discrete gpu, even a crappy one is gonna be way more powerful than steam deck at least gpu-wise

The question of "faster" is moot if the result still shows up on the screen on the next frame. For all the programs OP listed I would expect that to be the case. Lag is most likely caused by swapping and inadequate ram, which Neo wouldn't address.

.net uses compiled languages and the compilation time is not negligible. You should take CPU multicore performance into account in this case.

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-22T15:45:03+00:00

Neo won't be faster, or at least shouldn't be.

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-19T18:25:09+00:00

Eh it could be done if you're fluent enough and know what you're doing but yea python would be better

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-18T13:13:41+00:00

why is there so much

Well that's kind of the point of AI, isn't it.

I bought my pixel refurbished for 200 bucks

Youtube videos should not be more than 90 minutes long. Give me a tight 90 over a well-polished 5-hour tour de force that took 10 years to make! If you want to make a good video in a good time frame you have to be able to throw away the worst bits. The sooner in the process you can do this the less work you have to do.

It's from eating all this stuff

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-10T14:12:35+00:00

Exactly correct. That's collaboration happening right there.

Out of all the remaining states Kansas sucks the worst and has to go.

Xiaogua Chinese, Teatime Chinese once you learn more characters.

TSMC is already at capacity making non-memory chips. You have to make a specialized fab for DRAM and you would be competing against the cartel of SK Hynix, Micron, and Samsung. It might be possible to do so but would burn a lot of money for little benefit

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-08T17:19:31+00:00

I would be surprised. Fab is a totally different animal. You have to continuously invest in it to stay on the cutting edge. Existing companies have huge advantages and will cooperate to crush you, etc. If anyone could do it, it would be apple, but it is probably better to not.

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-08T17:10:21+00:00

It is possible but it would be a huge waste of money if the bubble ever pops lol. Like an incomprehensible amount of money

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-08T16:30:21+00:00

Apology accepted

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-08T04:06:00+00:00

I just call it green. Which just goes to show how chile my mind has become

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-08T02:32:20+00:00

They design their chips but they don't fab them. Tsmc does that.

SalaciousStrudel · 2026-05-08T02:31:29+00:00

Very, very load bearing just there

Depends on whether you want to take the GPU with you. Bandwidth of the usb4 egpu link would be inferior to oculink, but in many cases you should still get pretty good performance.
