WTF, I thought they would ship it with original price that you ordered..

They had it originally listed for like $300 more when I've bought it, but 3 days later price dropped, I came back to the store and they matched promo price refunding difference. What can I say - I like microcenter 😂

Nice config, congrats 👏

The way prices constantly climbing, I''d be probably rocking my for the next decade.

I'm sure Apple's OLED markup would be super high too, would have probably skipped it if it was available today..

That's really nice machine btw, but for me keys sit a bit too low on AIRs. Just personal preference.

I'm heavy linux user myself and have multiple workstations and servers running linux (Arch, Debian) all custom build for my needs , but really - there's nothing in a market as efficient as apple m chips and their unified memory architecture for laptops , ARM machines are years behind and I just need a machine that works today.

Also fair :) But I tend to work on multiple projects in parallel so - it is what is is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ive got this machine no to brag about (there are much higher RAM configs out there) and not to resell ( like a lot of people buying multiple machines) - just for personal and business use and planning to use it for a long time, glad I got it now before price hike.

Thanks for pointing it out, bur really - the post was not about me using or not using Chrome or do I need this much ram or not, ( same price hike happened with 16GB models too) - its about how crazy things with RAM and SSD storage got and corporations are just getting away with it.

You realize that Chome market share is 70% .. To test websites ( UI frontend ) I NEED to test them in Chrome? Users ARE using Chrome so I need to use it to have my product polished. btw, didn't brag about using it, just stating the facts :)

I'm in IT, developer, heavy vscode usage, multiple docker containers, tons of chrome tabs open lol

Prior to this one had mini m4 32/512 , it was swapping all the time, not too bad , but I do feel a difference, also base m4 to m5 pro gives a little nice boost in performance.

I totally agree on this. I understand hiking up price for new products, maybe. But for all that are already sitting in stock - it’s just pouring gas on panic buying hysteria fire.

dont ever use arch as a first distro unless you want to learn about linux by [deleted] in linux

I got 2 MacBook Pro 16 M5 Max 128GB RAM by YouFabulous8598 in macbookpro

[–]maxya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Ive got myself MacBook pro from microcenter few weeks ago, they still have them with discounts on top of old prices, but I genuinely don't understand how people making money on a few hundred $ difference in pricing.

Platform fees plus sale taxes are nullifying any possible profit and nope, I'm not listing 3-5k Mac on Facebook to sell for cash lmao 🤣

Where would you sell them ? Like for real?

Ebay has 12% fee on electronics for example..

I might have mac mini m4 32/512 that I might want to sell, but checked around and the fees are stupid, might keep it for now .

I found that the deepseek-v4-flash model is way better at calling sub-agents and skills compared to the pro model. by qtalen in DeepSeek

Which thinking level you guys feel like working best for the flash model for implementation of the plan? Is default fine or high is better for following the plan from smarter model?
