Also you can run x86-64 and arm64 VMs side by side with UTM on the M1’s. That’s what I am doing. Although I don’t need to use the x86-64 one these days as Debian/arm64 is fine for my needs.

Just a heads up with this. If you want one, make sure you get an off the shelf config if you can. The turnaround times for replacements and repair is likely to be bad on non stock configurations.

This pushed me to the 14” MBP with 16GB and 1TB. You can literally get it swapped out same day at apple stores if anything goes wonky.

No please do. You’re on the mark there. I was waiting for someone to make this point.

The weirdness comes from the social disparity and disconnectedness from peers their own age due to different social attitudes from parents.

The generalisation comes from the observation that older parents tend to lead to less progressive attitudes.

Great hobby. Combines many disciplines from carpentry, electronics, engineering and even civil engineering to some degree.

Yeah felt a little dirty writing that.

Indeed it’s about honesty in the face of death. The speaker speaks both of the good and the bad things.

Obituaries tend not to.

If this was Spotify vs Google I’d take Spotify.

If this was anything vs Apple I’d take Apple.

That’s the ranking of trust I have as far as customer support goes. It’ll be a crap fest when match.com or some other atomic level shyster markets their way into sounding more reputable than they are.

This. I had kids in my early 20s. It’s great because I still have a connection with them even though two are adults.

Kids from much older parents (40+) are also almost completely weird.

Having screwed this up in my 30s and spent the first half of my 40s doing a desperate low budget TV montage, I agree with this entirely. Some things you can't undo and I regret that. Learn from my mistake :)

I'm buying a cake tomorrow to celebrate.

I think Orson Scott Card, despite being a complete loon, raised an interesting concept in the book Speaker For The Dead. Obituaries should be spoken honestly to all. Not speaking ill of the dead is morally wrong.

Yes and no. Look at some of the loop optimisations possible on ARM compared to x86-64. I've had x86-64 run 8 instructions that ARM does in 1 instruction.

Spend some time looking at optimised compiler output on godbolt on both architectures. ARM has some really nice tricks up its sleeves.

I’ve been using ARM since about 1992 though so I may be biased.

I know. I still bought one.

Having just paid for Lightroom for a year this one really annoys the shit out of me.

Usually a mass exodus to a similar service with the same guarantees resulting in months of capacity problems as they try and scale out from customer influx.

There are no winners.
