You didn't say how Facebook relates. I don't doubt that Facebook has made the Myanmar genocide worse, but I also think they would be genocide-ing regardless.

Some Google searches indicate to me SSDs don't have a worrisome failure rate. If it happens to be a widespread problem for Apple products, there's precedent for them eventually having a replacement program. [1] [2] [1] https:

I'm impressed, but I am also not sure how accurate the benchmarks he's using are for replicating real-world load. I actually think it's pretty cost effective if you go for 32GB RAM instead of 64GB, and keep the baseline 256GB
