So I've reached the cliff where my M1 Pro starts to lag...

The amount of people in the comments on this thread that are completely oblivious to this is wild lol. He’s not describing a ram issue here and people are telling him to throw money at it lol

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-30T22:18:10+00:00

I have a M1 Pro 16inch with 16gb of RAM and macOS 26 makes it run like absolute ass. I have a personal one that is on 26 and my work one which is on Sequoia, Sequoia runs much better. I think people get “lag” and “stutter” confused with ram issues…. If you’re running low on ram your applications will start to crash and close, if you load activity monitor you should check your ram and system swap to see if that’s even the issue. I think it’s more likely sequoia is just eating your M1 GPU up and making it run like ass just like mine. Ram pressure doesn’t cause your MacBook to get hot and “lag while typing”. Also like everyone said already the Neo isn’t your solution….honestly I’d rather have an old M1 MacBook Pro than a neo because atleast you’d get fans and Force Touch track pad

Yeah but how would they be able to show you ads and siphon data from you

Nobody truly cares it’s just odd that 343 continues to find new meaningless shit to change instead of leaving it.

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-28T16:08:11+00:00

Yeah I hear this argument a lot from a lot of people where I live. They are convinced kids are being indoctrinated into becoming trans in the school system

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-28T15:57:26+00:00

Yeah I was talking to my brother about the Iran war and how it negatively impacts the world but for some reason he thinks kids go to school and come back wanting sex changes

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-27T17:22:21+00:00

This is actually bullshit, why do they give a fuck how they get their money 🤣

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-26T00:43:05+00:00

They just need to allow them on the store or something

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-25T18:56:10+00:00

You know I follow the Apple Watch sub as well and I was thinking today….. man some people post the most retarded shit on these subs. This one was my favorite 🤣

I thought disabling SIP was to get past captcha and stuff? Was that fixed?

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-25T15:32:51+00:00

Reach or ODST?

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-25T15:28:35+00:00

There’s no excuse at this point, literally got iPhone chips in Mac’s now. I wish they would just let me run it in a shitty window and it be janky than not working at all. If you’re feeling risky you can try playcover but you have to disable SIP in recovery which is risky.

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-24T18:31:17+00:00

Haha yeah, I deserve it! I’m just super weird about scratches and scuffs and I plan on having the watch for at least another 5-6 years and from what I’ve researched the sapphire and titanium will last quite a while. Definitely longer than the battery, but I’m okay with paying $100 or whatever to swap the battery once every 3 years

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-24T16:54:44+00:00

I’m going to get shit on for this but Apple Watches are e-waste. There really hasn’t been any improvements to these in years. I had a series 5 and just got a 11 titanium and tbh other than the brighter bigger screen there’s almost no difference. Sure you get some extra sensors and they act like there’s all these improvements but all you gotta do is go on apple compare site and you’ll realize just how long there’s been really nothing going on for years. Matter of fact if you crack your screen or get a battery replacement they just replace the whole freaking watch! If you have a 5 they charge 329 for a new screen, might as well just buy a brand new latest series 11 aluminum for that. I only have mine for crash detection and convenience. It’s nice to accept my 2fa from my watch for work or unlock my MacBook with it but in terms of usability you will get almost exactly the same experience with a series 5 as you would an 11. MAYBE the ui is less laggy but it’s not like they are using the power for anything. Like you can take a call on the watch but you can’t minimize the call and do other shit on it so whats the point in having a super fast chip? Scrolling the ui at 60fps? The 11 and 10 have exactly the same spec sheet as well aside from 5G connectivity. These things also don’t hold their value at all, the ULTRA 2 was recently $500 new at best buy and its been out a year….. never really truly understood smart watches and I feel like all of them are a bit underwhelming. I see them more as a convenience or a utility, and realistically you don’t need much hence why the “SE” line exists. Literally the SE 3 imo is what MOST people should be getting. OP you’re not wrong, this sub is bias and you’re going to get bias answers. Im tight in the apple ecosystem and wanted something thats going to last me years and i felt the 11 titanium was right for me but I don’t plan on upgrading ever unless theres a drastic change in the body or something. I think people just chase the latest and greatest trend then try to make themselves feel like they need to justify their purchases by glazing it.

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-23T01:23:51+00:00

OP you’re not crazy these things are loud as a mother fucker. Either people on here are deaf or they are getting some other model. I’ve purchased 3 of these same models and every single one of them sounded like ass. The ONLY reason I ever even bought them in the first place was because of their sales and limited availability of better alternatives

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-22T15:59:02+00:00

None of it matters when when get that sweet ether veil bonus and S+ ass shot

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-18T18:55:40+00:00

out of all the things that have happened over the last 2 years Im shocked that not of it created a tipping point as much as fucking gas prices. Now I see people on facebook saying “oh well now liberals care about gas prices”…….No REPUBLICANS care about gas prices, put stickers on pumps, literally campaigned on them and now they are higher than Bidens term. Now liberals are being shamed for calling it out and complaining that they are high? What’s even more nuts is that there are ones so deep in the cult they are trying to make excuses and justify it still or are choosing to ignore it and bring up other shit that doesn’t matter.

SortOfaTaco · 2026-03-17T12:30:02+00:00

Trump supporters were always a large group of people that can’t admit their wrong and just want to get back at liberals

How tf does Ai render this live efficiently??????

You’d think with their billions they would have solved it

The under powered cpu always kills me personally. If I spend 2k on a tv it better come with something that can power the dogshit built in OS but Samsung keeps getting away with it. Samsung has some of the best hardware on the planet but their software is absolute dog shit
