> and has a GPU I can use to play with StableDiffusion. You can run stable diffusion faster on a M1 pro macbook pro than on a 1080ti 3900x desktop. DiffusionBee, I get .7s/iteration on a M1 using just 45w of power vs .98s/iteration on my 1080ti using over 5x that amount of power... I could upgrade to a 4080 and I am sure it would destroy it, but I doubt your laptop has a full power 4080 anyway. > But 99% of the time I use my laptop on my desk anyway, As someone who works remote and has to travel for work, battery life is incredibly important to me, and the M1 is just leaps above its competition. I can write code and build all day without even plugging in on the M1 16"...

Not in any way overpowered, but runs games and StableDiffusion fast enough. That at a fraction of the cost of an M1 Pro too, and the added benefit of not having to use MacOS

  What exactly is so wrong with macOS? It's unix at the end of the day...
