16GB of RAM Could Be the New Minimum in Apple's Upcoming M4 Macs in c/technology@lemmy.world

Because there are two types of mac users:

People that are buying them with their own money because they're trendy and just using them as glorified Internet browsers. 16gb is plenty.
People using them professionally so their company is paying and Apple can over charge for the necessary memory upgrade

It's not even about profits. If companies don't have to pay for expensive office buildings they can save money. It's all the middle management realising their jobs are are unnecessary.

I agree with you about macos design. I'm not a fan of it either. It's garish with over the top animations. The window manager is dreadful. Track pad gestures are great though as is spotlight search.

It kind of has to be mac. How else are you gonna test on safari?

Dasani was withdrawn from the UK after just a few weeks. I tried it and it was truly disgusting.

Really? My S22u is super stable. I don't think it's ever crashed. The current up time is 377 hours. But that's only because of the 6.1 update a few weeks ago.

Every time I drive by it, I get a little angrier... in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Thanks for trying to help. I have already managed to import the ovpn certs using the CLI. It's just the Gnome import wizard that was not working. I suspect one of my monitors is incorrectly reporting its native resolution and refresh rate as its an issue that occurrs with both nvidia and AMD gpus. I'm on vacation now but I'll visit linuxquestions when I'm back because it's a really annoying issue lol.
