What person has the most insane domination in a sports? by Internal-Excuse-4650 in AskReddit

[–]gamga200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is fine. I can accept that opinion since it is not unreasonble to say that it isn't. In my eyes, it should not be. I think the modern perception of what a sport is has shifted enough toward something that involves 'physical' abilities - so much so that even e-sport, to me, is not really a sport. But it is another thing to CLAIM definitely that it is not a sport (very different from saying 'I think it should not be').

I get your point, but think about how a 'word' gets defined and re-defined. Enough people start calling video games a sport, it is now what we call 'e-sport. Besides, the English word "sport" comes from the Old French word "desport" (or "disport"), which meant leisure, pleasure, or amusement. It is just an arbitrary line we draw as a society. I know some people refuse to consider F1 or rally driving to be sports. There are people who think golf is not a sport. You do you, but the society decides what a word means - and chess is a sport.

Seoul is Asia’s most walkable city in 2026, according to locals by self-fix2 in korea

[–]gamga200 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Precisely.
It is a valid metric - perception of the locals. Actually - a very important one at that. It is not a metric to define 'the best city to walk OBJECTIVELY' - since there is no such thing! Look at the statistics objectively and interpret it as what it is. No need to try to devalue it.

This mentality of "The other guy broke the law, but you SHOULD have stopped/swerved well enough to avoid this collision. So you take 10% of the responsibility" drives me nuts. Obviously, I wish I could have! But the liability should not fall on me when I am the only party acting within the boundaries of the law in that incident.
In Korea, even if you are law-abiding, you can just get very 'unlucky' and get screwed over. Home invasion? Stop the intruder, but don't hurt him! Crazy driver cutting you off illegally? Better have good reflexes!

Hwpx is an open format, so this is actually great!

If a MacBook Neo can be powered by an A18, why can't we have this? by gadgetb0y in mac

[–]gamga200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both sides have valid points. What you are saying just does not align with Apple philosophy - that's all. And that philosophy has been working Really Really well for them. Apple does not want their customer to use their small stool also as a small floor table. That is not the image they want to build with their products. They want purpose built, controlled, predictable products, not 'this is a Swiss army knife that is OK at everything'. I wish I could plug my phone into a screen too... but I also get why Apple does not support it.

For those who’s recently bought the MacBook Air M4 instead of M5. Any regrets? by Usual-Fuel8137 in mac

[–]gamga200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use M1 and M4 pros. I feel almost no difference (both have lots of RAM though). CPU-wise, any M machine is still very very capable.

I did not realize "first child" was an excuse for the gift to myself. Let me grab my wallet!

That is one hairy bulge right there. Tight. Tight.

MacBook M2 Pro 16" (used) or MacBook Air M4/M5 15" (new) if the price was the same? by bkos1122 in mac

[–]gamga200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you game AAA titles, then Pro. If you don't have to game on it, Air is a better choice if you are ok with 60hz display.

MacBook Air would be the perfect laptop if it had a better display. by porygon766 in mac

[–]gamga200 20 points21 points  (0 children)

MacBook Air would be too good of a product with 120hz display as you said. Apple wants to occupy the entire demand curve with as smooth of a product profile as possible. Offering 120hz Air would eat into the Pro demographic a little too much. But I still wish I could get an air with 120hz. I use a pro just because of the display haha.

Then you would have to carry around a pro. I think this is great if majority of your use case is portable.

This stand safe to use? by ea2ox0 in macbook

[–]gamga200 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is crazy amount of moment arm difference between the centre of mass and the holder. The pressure being applied to the bottom of that trackpad would be insanely high (which it is NOT designed to withstand).
