So which of Microsoft’s false starts would you take as them taking ARM seriously? Why do you think they’d take RISC-V any more seriously than their previous attempts at ARM? There are two fallacies to overcome here.

Making the chip isn’t an issue for them. It’s the software compatibility post facto.

It’s a bit much to say their primary product that they’ve done for decades is a plan B. By definition it cannot be a plan B if it’s executed first and is successful. I think a lot of RISC-V advocates are perhaps a little too over eager in t

Whether Microsoft has windows running on an architecture is a very different level from whether it’s feasible to use it as a daily driver on windows. The ecosystem is what matters for most people. Windows for arm hails back to 2011. They’re

Maybe fine for Android but this will set their windows plans back another decade if it happens It has taken them that long to make arm be a thing on windows and that’s building on people porting stuff to arm for Mac to finally get momentum.

I shoot live concerts as a hobby and it blows my mind that I’m the only one in the media pit with hearing protection. My Apple Watch is screaming at me that its damaging levels of audio, and I can’t imagine listening to the show without pro

The Pro designates more than just the core count. If you look at the A18 vs A18 Pro, they’re not simply binned versions of each other. The Pro includes features like better display controllers, thunderbolt support and more video codec silic

I think Xbox squandered their lead from the 360 to the Xbox One/Series One. The gamepass and cross play is nice, but they don’t have compelling exclusives to drive hardware sales. Combine that with absolutely terrible product strategy

As a physical product (which my list was about) , you absolutely can. They went from dominating in the 360 era (when Sony fumbled the PS3, and Nintendo switched directions to the Wii) to two generations of poorly received releases and being

Nobody is saying Apple did it first though? Even the article says they used to use HoloLens before this. They’re just saying it does what they need better. A significantly higher resolution, image clarity and field of view than what the Hol

You don’t just suddenly pay double for an entire team when you have endemic problems in the organization. Especially when Meta and Magic Leap were also throwing money at these people, and Apple was throwing their entire ecosystem might at i

Sure, if they fit your need, nobody is saying you should pay for more. This is a common response when someone says something is better. It doesn’t mean they’re saying you need the better stuff or judging folks who don’t need it.

Yeah precisely. The Adobe suite is affordable if you’re actively making money off using it. It’s also why there’s not as much investment in competing open source projects. $80 CAD/mo for the whole suite minus the substance stuff (pric

You are correct even today. Inkscape is great but it’s a fraction of the utility that Illustrator offers. The only people who would actually equate them are people not professionally using these tools everyday. Even paid apps like affinity

There’s millions of Adobe product users out there. Almost all the design tool developers have keynote events. As an aside, I hate that people like yourself describe fans of anything they don’t personally understand as cults. It’s an antagon

Out of curiosity, have you tried the Vision Pro ? I legitimately ask because it sounds like you think it isolates you somehow from the rest of the world around you. But you can still see the world and communicate with others. Why is that ma

And with a headset on, they could have still resumed the conversation. Or is it also rude if one tries to sleep? Or if they decided to listen to music or watch a movie on the screens? Really the fact is that all those things are normalized

No, he’s telling other people to also act like he does. It’s great he can enjoy it but it’s self centered to tell others to do the same.

Your story just says what my comment does though. They ignored each other the rest of the time. Nobody is saying you tune out the entirety of the world the second you sit down. But there is an awful amount of people acting like the environm

You assume that most train rides offer a good view, and a view that the commuter would find novel. If I’m taking a commuter train every day , my view is not something great. Most of the time it’s rundown houses, tunnels or fences. This has

No it’s a standard M2. You can probe all the values that are exposed to software and it’ll line up. People have done tear downs and the SoC is the same size as a regular M2, which wouldn’t be possible otherwise.
