I still haven’t felt much urge to upgrade my 64gb MacBook Pro M1 Max.
The biggest issue I have with it is macOS Tahoe. Guess I really should be checking out Asahi on it!
- tmikaeld 8mo agoBefore you do, note that battery time on Asahi is abysmal at best, so if you're on battery often I'd really reconsider.
- cromka 8mo agoAbysmal? I am getting 8 hours on my M1 air with 80% battery life on it. What are you talking about?
- testing22321 8mo agoAbysmal by macOS on m series standards, pretty decent by everything else standards.
- cromka 8mo agoSo not abysmal! Abysmal would be if it was 3h, not 8-10.
- testing22321 8mo ago> if it was 3h You mean perfectly normal for every other laptop. It’s all a matter of perspective
- drooopy 8mo agoS**, I haven't felt much urge to upgrade from my 16GB M1 Air and I even use it to play some Windows games under Crossover. Quite possibly the best laptop I've ever owned.
- fl0ki 8mo agoIt's really nice springing for 64G RAM and being increasingly glad you did for every year that passes. (And this year more than most)
- barnabee 8mo agoIt's always come in handy for containers/VMs (and I assume compiling Rust, as it uses as much of every other resource as it can get it's hands on) but yeah, being able to run actually useful local LLMs on my now >4 year old machine has been fantastic.
