Has anyone considered that companies like Xiaomi/Samsung/Huawei/Lenovo/Honor/OPPO(rtunity?)/ZTE could easily pay a youtuber to buy and destroy a rival new release product? I mean nobody gasps when a ZTE nubia flip is snapped in half for views, does it?

Why does it matter if its 5 or 5T? The teardown or tear down is what is important. I invented something a few years ago in my backyard workshop while on welfare and it got tore down which made me realise something odd is going on

I noticed a race among social media to teardown or literally tear down the iphone duo this time. Bendgate is always a classic one to do for views, scratchgate is another one content makers love as they can wear an expensive watch while they carve shapes into their expensive purchase while poor people from around the world clutch pearls. The folding design is a great opportunity for content makers to target for views, but my question is why the content makers never invent something, design it, market it, pay large amounts for iso safety testing certification, then make teardown content on what they created a la banksy love is in the bin

Magic keyboard and track pad or mouse did not work for me with logic board first boot, only a MacBook case with track pad and keyboard worked. Connecting any peripheral over usb on a logic board at login screen will not function due to macos external connected device trust acceptance popup only appears after login.

I once bought an apple silicon macbook pro logic board to use with a kvm. It was a fun adventure. Things to notice:

-laptop lid closed/open sensor.

-no lid screen at first boot was a pain to fix to external monitor.

-logic board only on first boot requires macbook pro trackpad and keyboard(case), connecting external keyboard and mouse doesn't work at login screen due to security.

Once up and running though it is an excellent, cheap compiling/local llm machine i use over ssh from another mac

running this on an m1 max 64gb, it produces some really nice clips with music and audio, stitching the clips together after makes a nice short story generated entirely using a local ai system. It takes quite a while to generate each clip though, But at least it is working. I would like to know a few things:

-Optimal settings/configs examples for h3.c to help speed things up -Optimal recommended generation settings for each mac product, i am sure it is easy to do -Prompt generator assistant

Great work from the github author. The more i use it the more i realise i don't need a gui to generate video, just terminal.

My setup: Macbook #1 as a client Macbook #2 as server

-use macbook #1 terminal + ssh -run mactop in terminal tab to monitor Macbook #2's hardware during ai video generation -run h3.c on Macbook #2 via ssh session -transfer the output video file from macbook #2 to macbook #1 using terminal scp -view the video
