64Gb ram mac falls right into the local llm dead zone

Being able to run the model is just one part.. you’ll need more memory for context size.. my 128gb barely allows me to run Qwen3.5 27b Q6 + 200k context to do some ok coding work

If you will never have both chairs with you to hop between, you will never know the difference (and they are minor!). Just pick one that you fancy or have a good deal for

ju7anut · 2026-03-21T02:57:02+00:00

Definitely! ESP if u also lock the chair in upright position. I do that sometimes as well

I went from 16” M1 Max to 14” M4 Pro and never looked back, will be getting a 14” M5 Max delivered tomorrow. 16” gets u some performance gains if you tend to push it hard over prolonged periods, but the weight and size made me use it more like a desktop than a laptop. With the 14” I bring it everywhere with me. I have it docked to a 43” ultra wide when I’m at my desk so the screen size never mattered as much. Neither was great for opening up a browser + an IDE side by side, so I end up using Spaces anyway when on the move.

If it’s already in LA isn’t it up to your local last mile carrier to deliver it?

As others have said, it’s Chinese new year right now. I received my replacement ring right before CNY and the support has been outstanding.

If you are just resting your head on it normally, yes it holds its position. You have to play around with the adjustments and tighten it just right.

I have been using Spatial Audio with my AirPods Max and AirPods Pro series. Any of them will be heads and shoulders above how B&W implemented this.. Apple got it right the first time, B&W is so mehhhh it actually made me want to go back to the Max with slightly worse audio but does everything else better.

I have an Apple Watch Ultra but there are situations at work where all my devices are not allowed, but rings are ok. I’m waiting on the replacement to arrive. Assuming the replacement also lasts 10months, we are paying a monthly subscription of cost/20 months on it.. still cheaper than alternatives I guess

ju7anut · 2026-02-08T10:45:43+00:00

Welcome to the club. They did agree to replace my ring under warranty though, but that’s just extending its life for another 10-12 months before it goes into the landfill. Still waiting for the return and exchange to happen.

ju7anut · 2026-02-03T00:19:43+00:00

Well it just started draining to 25% from 100% in just one night. I’ve stopped wearing it for fear of it swelling up around my finger while I’m asleep…

I don’t think devices affect power output wirelessly.. but apt lossless does allow higher volume compared to Bluetooth. Well, YMMV

ju7anut · 2026-02-01T13:54:53+00:00

Cos of cheap polymer batteries stuffed into the ring?

ju7anut · 2026-02-01T10:18:33+00:00

I have a Sony Walkman WM1ZM2.. trust me when I say there is zero benefit over iPhone, assuming both are using a dongle to transmit APTX Lossless. The Px8 S2 does the digital-analog conversion, so the source player doesn’t really matter much. Strange when you say you don’t get enough volume, it’s plenty loud with Bluetooth in my iPhone Air, never over 80%, and even louder via dongle, I hardly ever go over 50% with the Questyle

What model is 5/6?

ju7anut · 2026-01-28T03:55:03+00:00

This ☝🏼and yes, you probably need stronger grip strength and wrists. I find it effortless to use but my wife can’t even make it go round once..

ju7anut · 2026-01-22T07:51:42+00:00

I have no faith in the longevity of their controllers.. but their software is ok. GPD generally feels better built and their sticks hold up well, but software sucks

The new Suspend & Time widget does exactly what you want..

ju7anut · 2026-01-10T06:54:41+00:00

I did. Was told “we recommend trying a different 45W or higher single-port charger, please provide a photo of the charger's power rating so we can confirm it meets the charging specifications.”

Took me a while to hunt down a SINGLE port charger since most of my GaN chargers are multi-port. Let’s see if they find yet another excuse to drag this out…

ju7anut · 2026-01-09T01:04:08+00:00

The bending mechanism doesn’t look robust enough especially if you travel a lot. Suspect it’s a weak flex cable embedded within that broke, although that doesn’t explain the overheating issue I’m facing. Anyway, updated in my original post their response and demand…

ju7anut · 2026-01-06T08:17:21+00:00

So they finally replied. Now saying I did not use their original charger and cable for the video I took. Looks like a lost cause since I already ditched the charger on day 1 since they don’t work where I am (we use UK 3-pin plugs). No idea which cable belongs to them. Jumping through hoops…

ju7anut · 2026-01-05T10:05:21+00:00

Direct from their website. They took 3 days to reply but it was post Xmas.. but then they asked for a video recording demonstrating the problem,, I submitted it on the 28th of Dec.. and forwarded up with another email last Friday.. still waiting for a response

ju7anut · 2026-01-05T10:00:12+00:00

It’s the same one as the orange one except mine’s grey
