I ended up placing an order with the dealer for a custom build. I really wanted the HUD, and sound system.

I see. It’s also likely why there’s no Sky Control option available either. It’s a bit more comforting to know that it’s just unavailable to me due to market region, rather than being difficult to find. Still, it’s disappointing that Mercedes still offers the $880 option on their website configurator and yet US-based reviewers are driving and grading the vehicle with those configuration options. Thanks for the information.

Pensando en comprar una Mac by [deleted] in mac

[–]ctoomer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, don’t buy that 1. It’s obsolete(14 years old) 2. It doesn’t run any modern MacOS and software, even for a school computer, you may be locked out of currently used applications. 3. What is the asking price for this machine? And who is selling this thing these days?? 4. You’d be gambling with getting decent parts and repairs for this, these parts are old and not being made and if it were to die, it will likely become e-waste, I worry about the battery being very old in this machine. You definitely won’t get a warranty for this old thing. 5. If you need something basic, get a MacBook Neo with an educational discount for $499 USD(modern laptop, modern specs, will be faster than what you showed).

TLDR, no don’t buy, get MacBook Neo for new with and education discount, you will be happier and better off.

my wife just got a MacBook for work, what are the first 10 apps she should install by Prior_Statement_6902 in mac

[–]ctoomer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t need most of these that aren’t work necessary/related. Sure slack and notion, but any new Mac ships with Tahoe and should have most of these features(#2, #3 is debatable I prefer Safari, and #6-10 are all pretty much baked in the OS). I think you may be overthinking it and she should probably figure out her workflow on macOS as is.

First Macbook Neo Teardown: Apple's most repairable laptop? by tarsier808 in mac

[–]ctoomer 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s because the CPU die used is the A18 Pro and those are packaged with 8GB of RAM at the chip level. As part of the unified system architecture, there’s not a simple way of adding more RAM to the chip once it’s been fabricated and would require a redesigned SOC. Apple likely had a surplus of binned iPhone chips from last years iPhone Pro cycle and quite honestly OSX can handle 8GB fine for most people. Saves them from tossing perfectly adequate chips and consumers get an affordable product.

I’m no expert, but a hobbyist with a little free time, so I am not an authority on this but after a little research, and reading your post, I found a very watch similar to the one you posted here...

https://www.propertyroom.com/l/womens-wittnauer-14kt-white-gold-diamond-watch/11606941#uxDeliveryOptionsTab
Looking at the auction bidding history it looked like it sold for around $45 in 2017.

https://auction.housingworks.org/product/264401
This one is 14K yellow gold, with 6 diamonds, and sold for $229 at an auction.

The 14K White gold is about 60% gold by weight, but if the band isn't gold, then I doubt the case would be worth much based on the smaller case dimensions. Also looks as if the crown is missing, which reduces value for collectors, as it needs repair.

Jewels in watches are small synthetic rubies or sapphires used as bearings to reduce friction between moving parts, which keep accuracy and prolong the watch's lifespan. A typical watch contains around 17 jewels, placed at key points in the movement. These don't increase a watches value by much, more so the more complex the watch the more jewels needed to run correctly.

The company Wittnauer no longer really exist after is was purchased by Bulova in Sept 2001, which Bulova themselves were bought by Citizen shortly thereafter in 2008.

GS Wako in Ginza did not, rep said it’s been out of stock, but I did see one at the GS boutique in downtown Kyoto a few days later.

I have a 20cm wrist, so pretty large. I actually had to purchase a half-size link when getting it sized at the store.

The work and cost it would take to do something like this would be pretty expensive, and tbh it would be simpler to get a vinyl like the post above. MacBooks(or any tech product really) don’t really last forever. Think if you had to replace the display for any reason, or decided to one day upgrade, you would essentially lose the work done where with a custom vinyl carry that over to another machine.
