Oh well... bye bye SSO
This isn’t about needing the newest tech, it’s about security and support. Older macOS versions are losing updates, security patches, and compatibility with newer frameworks the game relies on. And since Star Stable is an online game, they have to keep things secure and stable. If they kept supporti

And then there is a crazy productive guy with a 10 years old MacBook Air. No external keyboards, mouse, not even extra monitors

Is anyone surprised their M1 systems are now over 5 years old?
I agree. My M1 MacBook Air is still amazing. I have no need to upgrade it until Apple stops supporting it. I am stunned it’s been 5 years already.

What laptop does your company give you?
All developers used to get a MacBook Pro. But now they’ve downgraded to MacBook Airs M4. Typical cost cutting decision by management. All big 34” curved screens are being replaced by Dell docking stations with two screens, which are not compatible with Mac.. Devs are not happy as you can imagine

MacBook Neo has a thermal protection over the chip
I did a similar copper shim mod on my MacBook Air 2019 back then, it helped with the temps a lot but it made it strictly not a “lap”top. There is a reason why there is an air gap, and it is for not literally burning you or cooking your skin.

Apple's $599 MacBook Neo Sold Out Through April 2026 Amid Surging Demand
Imo Apple has been no slouch at figuring out what consumers care about and giving it to them. Over a decade ago I bought my first Apple laptop because the MacBook Air had the best battery life on the market, and it wasn’t even close. As a bonus, it also had great build quality and was conveniently v

Where to go to buy laptops in SG?
Tbh for 1.5k casual use. MacBook air. No need to look see. Should get minimum 4-5 years outta it easy. Got my m2 base config in 2022 for about $1.5. Still feels as smooth as day 1.

Here Are All the Rumors About Apple's New $599 MacBook
Our enterprise org went from 100 Macs in 2015 to 15,000 today... solely because of M3 and M4 MacBook Airs. They're finally cheaper than comparable Dell Latitudes and far more reliable.

Windows 10 Deadline Boosts Mac Sales
The MacBook Air base model, is the "best deal in computing right now." For around $1K there is a lot of competition, but the 13"/M4/16 GB/256 GB absolutely blows most of it away. It is just a very high quality and powerful laptop that will last you a long time. I've seen it commonly for $50 off reta
