Still 219 PPI compared to 146 PPI at 500 nits brightness for $500. Granted that iPad chip is going to crawl on some stuff. and the MacBook Air, which is likely far more performant than either is $1099 base instead of $1700+ for the dell. I enjoy all competition but intel chips are still way less performant than the m series in terms of power consumption

    locking down issue submission is ok due to AI spam and some of the vitriol of the open source community. telling people to sign up for a proprietary service that continues to get enshittified and is a walled garden with terrible search if they have problems is sort of shit. looks like it could be this repo: https://github.com/utkarshdalal/GameNative based on the response to every closed issue

    How does he just look like an old Charlie Kirk. We’re in a simulation and there’s so many shit people the rendering layer is just caching them now

    It was provided

    Sure, but the cost of it was also baked into your monthly subscription, you were renting it. And if they gave it to you “for free” they were still making tons of profits on your monthly bill

    Not saying it’s not worse, but the idea that was like “when corporations were nice” also definitely isn’t true

    For anyone who doesn’t know, the US is the largest oil producer in the world, more than double any other country. So that’s the reason prices aren’t going up as much as they may be elsewhere, but also what that means is that when we attack Iran us oil company stocks skyrocket. People pay more, billionaires reap, hedge funds reap, the military industrial complex reaps. War as a service.
