Apple announced a two year transition, the two years are not over yet so why should they be out by now? A new MacBook Pro with M1X will come out this fall according to credible sources.

No credible leaker (Ming-Chi Kuo, Gurman) predicted a new MacBook Pro at WWDC.

Kraken lists Monero in US. Other US exchanges don't have Monero listed, but that does not mean that they "banned" it.

If your use case needs more RAM then simply chose the 16GB option. 8GB RAM is fine for a large portion of casual users and if it keeps the base price down I'm okay with it.

Why does the README mention CryptoNote when the project seems to be based on Monero + SCP? https://twitter.com/fluffypony/status/1379559273504641025 I guess the whitepaper mentions it, but that isn't suprisin

Single core vs multi core. The top Intel MacBook has 8 cores and only beats the M1 (4 performance cores) by 1 minute. The desktop Hackintosh most likely has way more cores, expecting the low power M1 to beat it is unrealistic.

Is this really surprising? Apple said the transition is going to take 2 years. As predicted, they only updated their entry level devices yesterday. More pro machines (e.g. 16" MBP) will probably get announced Q1 - Q2 2021. These will a

They only upgraded the entry level Macs, as expected. The previous 2 port 13" MBP was also limited to 16GB RAM. The 4 port 13" MBP will most likely get upgraded early next year and also support more RAM. Apple did announce the tra

All these things work with 8GB RAM. macOS uses all available RAM aggressively, so if you have 32GB RAM it will appear as what you are doing requires 32GB RAM, which is not the case.

The GUI does not display all options. You most likely can use csrutil to disable it, see the “Platforms State of the Union” WWDC talk.
