SS United States is a retired American ocean liner that was built during 1950 and 1951 for United States Lines. She is the largest ocean liner to be entirely constructed in the United States and the fastest ocean liner to cross the Atlantic Ocean in either direction, earning the Blue Riband for the highest average speed since her maiden voyage in 1952, a title that remains uncontested.
MacOS 15 is too new and not supported on my machines.
EDIT: if you're curious, these are the devices supported by Sequoia. My macs are much older than that and the hardware still works great, which is a testament to the build quality. I just wish they still got security updates.
No, apple devices tend to have good hardware that lasts a long time.
I have several apple computers at home that still work fine except they don't get software updates any more because they're old :(

Google pixels have pretty long support.

There are two different mechanisms involved in the production of a tan by UV exposure. Firstly, UVA radiation creates oxidative stress, which in turn oxidizes existing melanin, leading to the rapid darkening of the melanin. UVA may also cause melanin to be redistributed (released from melanocytes where it is already stored), but its total quantity is unchanged.
