As someone using a non US keyboard layout I find using non OS shortcuts very frustrating. Especially VIM is unusable on a non US layout. I wish shortcuts were mapped to the ANSI or ISO positions of the keys instead of letters. But with how

The consequences are a hit to your reputation (I think they call this "being canceled" nowadays). I guess you can get to a point of wealth where this doesn't really matter. But at least for 99% of people this is really harmfu

Malware also slips through sandboxes and other security measures. That doesn‘t mean they are useless. App review and notarization helps a lot with security. But there will always be errors.

Not sure if I missed your joke. But this is probably a joke based on the spelling of the word being British. So Americans use tires and the British use tyres.

Apple doesn't want to be in the server market and I don't think that will change any time soon. They would have to either build a whole new organisation for that or use resources that go into their consumer products like the iPhon

If you are using Vivado there are some scripts on GitHub to make this work. I don’t know how reliable they are though. I think they run it in a Docker container an use X to display the application in macOS. https://github.com&#x2

There are a lot of companies that are paid big bucks by nation states to find vulnerabilities and not make them public. NSO for example. So yes Apple only fixes the bugs people or companies find that make them public. But not for the reason

You would need a new connector because dust can break the signal and a cable that needs a dust cap sounds like a horrible consumer product.

Funnily enough you inspired me to try Apple Maps and it did a better job. The last time I ran into this issue I didn‘t even think about Apple Maps since it’s much worse in the things I use Google Maps for in my location. But now I know wher

This issue can be fixed by switching the display to RGB [1]. So I think it’s a software bug but it‘s really annoying since the fix sometimes resets and the bug only occurs when there is a lot of black on the screen. [1] https://g

I might have misunderstood the OP. High end models are more expensive because the people that buy them are either businesses or enthusiasts. So they either have a monetary gain from the higher performance or they just want the best thing. S

These GPUs reserved a variable amount of your system memory for the GPU. So if you had 4 GB of RAM the GPU would maybe use 500 MB leaving you with 3.5 GB of RAM for your CPU. There was often a option in the BIOS that allowed you to change t

A display probably costs Apple about $100 when they buy it. Now you have to keep it in a warehouse in sufficient quantities and send it to a customer or repair shop when they need it. Add taxes to this and suddenly you are awfully close to
