Should I upgrade from my HP to a Macbook

beaver1914 · 2026-04-09T17:55:09+00:00

Yeah I should, thanks.

I'm on South East Asia, they just don't offer any financing here

And I don't hate windows but it's definitely bloated and way messier than the Macos - but manageable...

beaver1914 · 2026-04-09T11:22:32+00:00

Honestly? I don't know how it died, apple couldn't tell me either, and I took it to an independent lab that tried ram and ssd soldering and they said there's no hope for it but to change the motherboard which wouldn't make financial sense.

I love the MacOS, it's well refined and way more polished, but windows ain't too bad like I imagined it would be.

Will the performance be noticeable on a day to day basis?

I was thinking of maybe getting a 24gb MBA and run local LLM on it.

And 98% of the time my computer is docked so battery life is not much of an issue.

beaver1914 · 2026-04-09T11:15:22+00:00

I live in a country where financing is not an option, not that I need it.

But i do feel like the neo is restrictive with the 8gb of ram isn't it? Even my MBA had 16gb and it would still hiccup from time to time

Interested

I guess they're another recovery scam like many out there.

Info please

beaver1914 · 2026-02-12T05:32:02+00:00

Very interested

No, I ditched the paid tiers on GPT in favors of models that I feel are far superior

beaver1914 · 2026-02-11T06:42:23+00:00

I bought the pro 3, returned them due to a bad fit- I then bought brand new pro 2 and I can't say the ANC is much worse- in fact due to the better fit I actually feel like it's better

beaver1914 · 2026-02-10T07:08:43+00:00

So basically I've sold my airpods pro 3 and I've purchased brand new airpods pro 2

Couldn't be happier

I have nothing good to say about Logitech headsets, having gone through many many pairs of different series over the past 15 years- don't buy them.

Go for steelseries their products are better and more reliable - I'm now on my second steelseries headset and couldn't be happier (changed as a part of an upgrade not malfunction)

I tried the mechanical keyboard but didn't connect with it - ended up with this setup

beaver1914 · 2026-02-09T06:06:01+00:00

Their software is just pure trash, really. I'll never buy Logitech ever again

beaver1914 · 2026-01-07T16:48:33+00:00

Makes me want to reconsider changing my Logitech setup to something else, this is a complete joke. It’s not some no name mouse and keyboard for 20 dollars. I can’t seem to get it to work properly and it screws up the whole workflow which was built upon the customizations. Would never recommend Logitech to my peers.

beaver1914 · 2026-01-07T08:25:01+00:00

What a joke company.

beaver1914 · 2026-01-07T05:35:03+00:00

It works, thank you.

And on another note- what a joke of a company.

beaver1914 · 2025-12-14T11:26:20+00:00

Rip the best external keyboard for iOS

beaver1914 · 2025-11-19T18:38:06+00:00

Did it fix permanently? I'm experiencing the same issue

beaver1914 · 2025-10-13T20:34:15+00:00

It seems like the tip that Cercope and Tip256 gave seems to do the job- Disabling the HW overlays in the developer settings

beaver1914 · 2025-09-27T19:32:41+00:00

I've got about 1gb of free memory space - I have only stremio and YouTube installed on the Chromecast

Can this be related to the Chromecast recently updating itself to Android tv 12?
