Very enjoyable article. Never had a Be box, but used beos a bit around 2000 - when it was free to download. It felt great, shame there were no apps. Maybe if vibe coding was available then, it would have done much better. Loved the hardware part of the story - I just got a mac studio on sale and after many years of laptops, remembered how much fun it is to have things on a desk, permanently connected. I was cleaning up my vintage hardware, selling some old MBs after all full PCs were gone - had two dual processor pentium pro and pentium II workstations. Connected a USB to SATA/IDE/floppy connector, went through all old HDDs before recycling them - was such a joy to have desk space, not just my portable do-it-all.

Anyway, computers should be fun and this story definitely brings that across. Thank you!

Check out HaikuOs :)

Many PCIe4 or 5 drives

There was some article today claiming the updated versions won't launch before October.

Or it could be the same CPU as in pro/max with more GPU chiplets.

Sure.

AI workloads would really benefit from having more RAM, GPU cores, and memory channels.

Something tells me this mentality is how Apple ended up with thousands of idling Private Cloud Compute servers.

But sure, more GPU cores will definitely fix it this time.

When I try to launch system settings through spotlight, it launches system info. They have the same prefix, but that's no excuse. Never happened since Tiger or so.

Lolololo okay if they're gonna stick a CWIS on the Amazon datacenter then we all get on mounted on our rooves too cause I certainly pay my taxes.

There's also the fact that Amazon et al tax haven it up.

Except if you live in Chicago, Los Angeles and Minneapolis, yes, I agree with you.

In both Paris and Anaheim they could double the park space by moving parking underground :)

> one of the biggest overall dangers of this technology aside from mass unemployment and making my RAM cost too much.

That's a beauty.

Just tried with Lightroom - sometimes the pointer changes, sometimes it doesn't and stays as the normal arrow. Sometimes it allows resizing in height and width, other times only one of them.
