- @collin Yep. — This is compounded by the fact that none of the M-series machines have discrete GPUs, so some of that memory is being allocated to graphics when it wasn't before. — This is papered over a bit by the sheer speed of the M1/M2/M3 and fast SSDs (for swap), but it's still untenable over the long run... @jeff@indieweb.social · Jeff C.

🍦: Apple has confirmed to me that the 14-inch MacBook Pro (that's the M3 version from last fall) will gain support for a second external monitor with the lid closed (like the new M3 MacBook Air in a future software update. Woo! https://9to5mac.com/...

FYI the new M3 MacBook Air only supports 2 external displays with the lid CLOSED. Weirdly, if you open the laptop to use the keyboard/trackpad, it turns off one of the external displays So if you plan on plugging into 2 screens you'll also need to bring your own mouse + keyboard …

Ah good news, the 2nd external monitor support while the lid is closed for the M3 MBA is coming to the M3 MBP as well. If it was a software fix does that mean that in theory it should work with the M2 as well?

In other Apple news, it seems like they're actively adopting the term ‘AI’ this year, having ignored it previously. The seal now broken, I imagine ‘AI’ will be used heavily in iOS 18's marketing — https://www.apple.com/... [image]

Are we at a point where we are seeing the law of diminishing returns on Apple silicon? If not, why is Apple showing benchmarks against Intel Macscnot made in years? I mean it's a great comparison that make the M series look good but while you're at it, how about a benchmark...

I've written that the special version of iOS 17.4 for the new iPad Pro isn't scheduled to be ready until the end of the month. That doesn't align with an announcement this week. Nor does Apple's in person MacBook Air briefings today (multiple sessions seems impossible).

If you cheer on regulation today then it means either you will not reach a scale or impact attracting attention of regulators or it means you will come to truly dislike the frustrating and arbitrary nature of regulation, though by then you won't be able to say anything in...

I don't get why Apple still compares their latest laptops to Intel powered models At this point they should make all comparisons to M1 models which were released in 2020, but a 5 generation old Intel processor? Please, anything is faster than those. [image]

My M2 MacBook Air was my favorite Mac out of every one I've ever owned. I replaced it with an M3 Max MacBook Pro, but I really think I'll go back for M5 because the Air's battery life and lightness is just unbeatable. I could not recommend it more!

I'm still curious if we'll get new colors for the iPhone 15 lineup tomorrow. Purely given Yellow for iPhone 14 + 14 Plus was announced on the first Tuesday of March last year. Probably a long shot, but (PRODUCT)RED for the Pro models would be amazing. Just hoping! Not a leak.

Two thoughts on the new M3 MacBook Air PR: 1.) The promo image wallpaper still spells “AiR” (I was hoping for a new wallpaper design). 2) It has been 31 days since Apple launched the Apple Vison Pro and it still hasn't updated its “Apple revolutionized personal technology...” P…
