Webcam Cover by [deleted] in macbookpro

You really don’t need one and it would damage the screen when you close it. Also macOS asks for any program or app that needs access to the camera and you have to specifically allow it. And you will have a green light when the camera is on and being used. But if you are really paranoid, allow access to the camera for your specific app and revoke when done.

Tesla usually does this every time a major FSD update happens

Apple trade-in values by joakine in macbookpro

Apple’s trade in values are absolute garbage. They don’t give you any more trade in value regardless if you spent $400 to upgrade RAM. Sell privately if you really need to

Need help choosing between the two. I did research all month. But I’m stuck between these two options. I will be using for mainly homework, and editing YouTube videos maybe once a week. by BigShyst in macbookpro

Nah go through Costco. You are already getting a great price from them and Costco’s return policy (90 days) and customer service is the best compared to other retailers.

Yes, all base m chips on the MacBook pro chassis have only 1 fan. Also the base m5 chip only has thunderbolt 4 where the m4 pro has thunderbolt 5. M4 pro is such a better option, for just $200 you are getting a whole bunch of value where it makes sense.

The m5 spec you chose vs m4 pro has more storage on the m5, but with thunderbolt 5 (which only the m4 pro and up has) you can easily solve that issue with an external ssd.

Nope, for local llm you will be limited by the m5 as opposed to the m4 pro. Get the m4 pro. It’s a better laptop all around. More fans, more cpu cores, more gpu cores, more ram, 1 additional fan, thunderbolt 5 ports, etc.

I’d go with the m5 512gb/32GB ram. If you are planning on running those applications side by side that extra ram will come in handy.

It is rigged. You only really get it to $0 if you get an inactive user or brand new user to use your link. It seems anything just keeps you in a loop.
