  • The only way to put a shame on Apple is the Laptop OEM manufacturers ship their entry level laptops and mini desktop computers equipped with Snapdragon Elite X chip with baseline 16GB of RAM, and $50 to upgrade to 32GB, 512GB of SSD, and adequate price to upgrade without robbing the customers. If they really want to retain and re-capture the market share from Dracula Tim Cook before bleeding out much like the Nokia, this is a step to take before even more people get hooked up on Apple ecosystem, because once they are into the ecosystem, it is hard to get out from data and services they signed into it. I am curious if a class-action suit can be brought against Apple in the memory and SSD pricing debacles.


  • This is why competition is always a must, when Apple released the M1 series, the entire tech industry basically shitting on Intel, and spell the death of x86. Make no mistake, Arm-based chips are leading years ahead for efficiency and performance per watt. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Elite X and Microsoft already signed the exclusive deal to sell Arm-based laptop running Windows, coming in 2024. Nvidia and AMD also announced Arm-based PC chips to market in 2025.

    On the GPU front, Nvidia basically abandoned the former customers (gamers) that put the company into a trillion dollar company, Jensen Huang now focus on server and AI chip market now that selling 1000x times the MSRP gamer-tier RTX GPU a piece. Just look at the RTX 4000 series pricing and the VRAM for entry and mid-tier cards. Intel Arc and AMD Radeon are decades behind Nvidia in terms of software API, the CUDA ecosystem is the one that allowed Nvidia to basically monopolize the AI field and milking its customers. Gamers are no longer needed by Nvidia, they will continue to release subpar GPU that barely keep up with the expected generational leap, by CUDA cores, VRAM, memory bandwitdth, some are even downgraded, ffs.


  • Considering Apple updated the 14" & 16" MacBook Pro to M2 chips the same time as Mac Mini back in Jan 2023, and many believed that it was delayed due to supply chain and production issues, supposedly the release schedule was Oct-Nov 2022 in previous year.

    Now that MacBook Pros get the M3, M3 Pro, M3 Max, why didn’t the Mac Mini get the refreshed as well ?

    Will Apple just simply make the Mac Mini the drag queen that stretched 3-4 years refresh cycle ?




  • This is a great opportunity to identify the group of people and organization that advocate for the government to scan your private data, a violation to your privacy and rights.

    It is very obvious they have very limited wisdom or are acting solely to serve a certain party interest i.e, the authority that wants your data without any hassle.

    Another possibility is they are a complete removed. For anyone that interested,

    • Christian Brothers Investment
    • Degroof Petercam, a Belgian investment firm

    Christian Brothers Investment Services describes itself as a “Catholic, socially responsible investment management firm.” The proposal is believed to play a role in Heat Initiative’s advertising campaign as well. Simultaneously, the New York Times is also now reporting that Degroof Petercam, a Belgian investment firm, will also back the resolution.

    Maybe it is time to research into these two entities.

    Maybe it is time to research into these two entities, and are all their customers agreed on their stands, and wiling to give up their rights on privacy, basically allowed the corporations and government to shut them down if they decided they no longer in line with the corps and gov in future.
