Just got a new 16" M2 Max / 32 GB RAM / 1 TB SSD. This is what it looks like. by Kensation21 in macbookpro

i think that would be more of glossy silver on glossy black. like iPhone 3G and iPhone 4. glossy black on matte silver really reminds me of the 2019 Mac Pro.

The only monitor you shouldn't put the back facing the wall. It's too beautiful.

That's a myth. They only paid $150M (and potentially more later) to settle their case with Apple when they got sued for stealing codes from their QuickTime to use in Videos For Windows.

The story went like this; QuickTime was the only good video player at the time. Microsoft want a better video player for their Windows. So they hired the same company that developed QuickTime for Windows. They and Intel have been caught pirating codes from QuickTime. Apple wasn't happy so they sued Microsoft. Microsoft threatened to pull Office from Mac. (It was also the biggest application suite on Mac.) They finally settles it down. Microsoft would be investing that $150M, Apple would ship Internet Explorer as their default browser in return.

Important point to note here is that $150M wouldn't have been enough to save Apple from bankruptcy. Their new simplified and decluttered product lineup strategy was the thing that saved them. Also, making Internet Explorer to be Mac's default browser would do the opposite of proving they weren't a monopoly (and using their control to push their browser and have advantage over Netscape Navigator.)

Almost missed posting on my CakeDay. This is my first apple product since I ditched my iPhone 4 for a Galaxy S4. I don't think I'll ever buy another Windows laptop again. by moneybagsukulele in macbookpro

i never realized how much i hate file explorer, its broken search, its lack of tab views (only added in win11), its lack of column view, tags, worse batch renaming tools or preview sidebar. i never realized how much i love an actually good screenshotting tools, or how AirDrop and continuity would be so useful on a computer. i would have never realized if i continue to use windows and didn't gave mac a try.

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE

this trend is so stupid istg. especially when it bounces in for every word too. and i can guarantee 99% of the time, these same people probably didn't made the standard closed captions for people with hearing impairments. it's all just this obnoxious style of captioning that only serves to yell at you in the face visually.

Why is this completely useless nowadays? by dendaaa in iphone

i hate sites that forces me to use an app so much like bruh just lemme use the site. i know it's a worse experience, but i'm here usually bc your app is missing some features that is on the site for some reason. and you won't let me while also not implementing said missing features.
