It might also pleasure you in bed, and solve the Gaza crisis too. In fact, it might get elected POTUS in the upcoming election, you can’t prove it won’t.

Meanwhile, my 2018 T480 has 64 gigglebytes of memory.

And has 1/10th the memory bandwidth.

Gigglebytes?

PetteriPano@lemmy.world on 20 Oct 20:59 collapse

For the occasions where you’re uncertain if it’s gigabytes or gibibytes.

at this point, apple laptops have become fancy tablets but i wish there was viable options for arm processor laptops

rezifon@lemmy.world on 20 Oct 14:02 next collapse

In what way do you feel like apple laptops are just fancy tablets?

dustyData@lemmy.world on 20 Oct 14:36 collapse

Everything is soldered to the motherboard. Next question?

2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de on 20 Oct 14:39 next collapse

Does that make an SBC a fancy tablet?

dustyData@lemmy.world on 20 Oct 14:44 next collapse

I don’t know, did you plug a touchscreen to your raspberry pi? In that case, yes.

Rin@lemm.ee on 20 Oct 17:35 collapse

Does an sbc with a keyboard, trackpad and a screen make a laptop?

Reverendender@sh.itjust.works on 20 Oct 14:53 collapse

Do you feel that operating system should be factored into this determination in any way?

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 20 Oct 15:37 collapse

You do realize that virtually every device with an arm processor also have soldered ram?

Rin@lemm.ee on 20 Oct 17:33 collapse

When did I mention ram? But sure, you can throw that on the pile too.

M3s Tablets just generally
Has a keyboard Doesn’t always have a keyboard
Soldered Ram Soldered Ram
Not designed to run anything other than MacOS Not designed to run anything other than a specific OS
Arm processor Arm processor
Soldered Memory Soldered memory

the only real difference is that laptops have a track pad. It’s literally a fancy tablet with a dedicated keyboard.

Or you know, just let the consumers swap the HD and RAM themselves.

I’m ready for CAMM2 to be widely available.

garretble@lemmy.world on 20 Oct 15:17 next collapse

All for the low price of $7,000.

… and here I just upgraded my windows / linux laptops to 32gb unified memory ram…

bestboyfriendintheworld@sh.itjust.works on 21 Oct 19:04 next collapse

I have 24 GB on my M2. The real news is Apple finally having a good amount of RAM in the base model.

the M4 MacBook Pro will indeed start at 16 GB of unified memory for the base variant
