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.
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.
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 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.
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.
I usually find something that I use that already exists that pisses me off and make my own version that doesn't piss me off.
I've done this with a couple of things which have worked out usable over time and are part of my daily workflow. Most recent is a simplified browser-based replacement for GnuCash which is based on Sqlite and Go. I will publish it on github when I am happy with it.
No. Intel worked out it needs to open its production capacity to other vendors. They will end up another ARM fab with a legacy x86-64 business strapped on the side. That's probably not a bad place to be really. I think x86-64 will fizzle out in about a decade.
To be fair half of the people I know can't even remember their email address or password for more than about an hour after creating it so that's exactly what they do regularly.
My sister in law is on her 11th email address in the last 3 years.
I have had my domain and email address for 25 years...
Sounds about right. Here there will be a staff security training symposium that runs everyone through a training course bought in from the lowest bidder that is tangentially related to the issue followed by a self-congratulatory management meeting and that will be the whole issue resolved to satisfaction.
