Doesn't sound like you really know what he does, to be fair. He's one of the OG tech youtubers. If you've looked up a smartphone review on youtube sometime in the last 10 years, you've probably seen his content come up. I just find it hard to believe that anyone who is even slightly interested in technology hasn't heard of him. This is like someone who is into pc hardware never having heard of Linus Tech Tips.

Yeah i have no clue who this guy is, so he must be doing a great job as an interviewer and influencer being some facless individual who asks questions to corporate faces.
Also the way you are stating this comes off as abnormally high praise for the guy. Like unbelievable levels for what he does, so im going to have to assume you are a puppet account or rabid fan.

Only 3 usb-c ports is pretty weak. My pro from 2017 has 4

You clearly have no clue who this guy is lol. Yes, he’s a very well rounded person. He runs one of the biggest and oldest tech YouTube channels around. He’s got a degree in business. He’s respected in the tech world to the point that he’s been given one-on-one interviews with people like Bill Gates, Satya Nadella, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Craig Federighi. Google invited him to the 2022 Met Gala.
If you followed tech even a little, you’d know who he is.

Listen the poster actually on god threw his twitter into his post where he is labeled to be a professional video editor and a PRO ULTIMATE FRISBEE PLAYER. Let his get his nose tweaked a bit.

Reply to comment by Themasterofcomedy209 in Apple Reportedly Working on Touchscreen Macs, Including MacBook Pro by Avieshek
I feel like this "cannibalization" argument that always comes up, fails to take into account, that it' not about cannibalizing iPad vs. MacOS. I think it would be more about unifying the MacOS and iOS userbase, making it an even bigger total market for app (and games) developers to target. Also, don't forget, that expansion could also come in the shape of PC users choosing Mac instead, if a real (and good) alternative existed to touch-based PC's, such as the Surface Pro that I'm typing this os.

I'm using an M1 Air with 8GB and the only time I've seen it start to bog down was when trying to use Unity. That was the first time I ever had that "it's running slow because I'm running it on a laptop" feeling while using my MacBook

PCIe 5 is 14GB/s if in not mistaken.

You aren't trolling though, your knowledge is just extremely poor and you think you have a valid point but don't.
Wrong again, there is currently no ARM chip that competes with Apple Silicone. Microsoft recently launched Volta which lacks many of the unique features Apple have implemented.

Yup. Literally just checked it before I posted in case I was making an ass of myself. I don't have any purchased content from Apple so can't fully test it but there's a Library section which when selected tells me I haven't purchased anything.

I genuinely wasn't aware of that. So the AppleTV App does allow you to play back purchased movies from iTunes?
That opens up my options should Apple make it near impossible for me to keep on using the Apple TV box as my only Apple device.
Cheers.

You can watch all AppleTV (including purchased content) on a Chromecast Ultra. I imagine it would work on any Google TV device.

Wasn’t that a business decision to buyback shares to reduce the extra cash?

You honestly think they spent $52 billion on AR? Their official plan is to get rid of their cash pile through stock buy backs an dividends. Sorry no mystery here

It will be the best AR they’ve ever made.

I'd say the quest2 with over 15 million(estimates Jun. 2022) counts as mainstream

Yeah, it needs to be something that people would wear even when they aren’t using it.
Really, it needs to be a status symbol

The same thing happens if you stare at the color red for long enough and then look at a white wall.

Damn how expensive are they going to be? You know it's going to be way over priced when even Apple declined the original pricing.

Meh, no need - just trolling.
But yeah, I do hate apple. And I don't care about the M1/M2/M3/M4/M5 whatever comes out. Something better will always come out.

I played Mario tennis for like 45 mins once, and when I took my face out of it I looked at a can of Pepsi and it looked bright red instead of blue. The virtual boy was no joke

Yeah it’s like gaming PCs. Less common than consoles but still common
