Fun fact ! The MX Master 3S has 8gb of RAM, this is an upgrade from the 3, which only had 4gb of RAM.

Strange that my mouse costs double what it used to.

@DGxLaw @ivanfioravanti big companies can get GPUs as hardware in racks or GPU hours

No please, no! Don't push people to think that a cluster of 4 M5 Max is a viable solution. If you set the to High Power they will drain battery after few hours even if connected. Moreover It will generate an incredible amount of heat and noise.
For me is a no go, sorry.

M5 Max cluster 72 CPU and 128 GPU cores, 512GB unified Ram Each MacBook is connected to all the others with Thunderbolt 5 (120Gbit/s). But I’ll have to use Wi-Fi to connect to the cluster

@ivanfioravanti you could spend less money on a single 512GB mac studio off ebay or get GPUs directly with that 8k * 4
English

@ivanfioravanti It only drains that amount of power in short bursts; after a few seconds, it throttles down to the normal 120~ of sustained load, and it’s only (now) M5 max with 128GB you can buy.
English

@ivanfioravanti @TheAhmadOsman Well, not quite, I disagree.
1. Due to the mem. shortage, it’s the only Mac with 128GB you can actually buy, esp. with the M5Max.
2. The MacBook Pro with the same chip consumes less power than its Mac Studio counterpart due to the chassis’s limitations and throttling protection.
English

@TheAhmadOsman I agree 100%, a cluster of 4 M5 Max is a terrible idea from all point of views, starting from power consumption, heat and value for the money. This is bad.

There are better ways to spend your money btw
Don’t fall for this psyop lol

@MirovichMedia Yeah, we know—they even attempted smuggling the rocket fuel for that mission from Argentina a while ago.

Путинисты, у которых валится всё и вся, и каждую зиму в десятках городов лопаются гнилые советские трубы, продолжают грезить космическими фантасмагориями.
Вспоминается старый советский анекдот:
Партсобрание. Парторг рассказывает о планах партии.
– Через 10 лет у каждого жителя СССР будет автомобиль! А через 20 - самолет!
– А зачем самолет – спрашивают.
– Вот вы живете в Рязани, а масло выбросили на Сахалине. Вы туда что, на машине поедете?!

@Rainmaker1973 That's not INTERNET SPEED.
That's the connection speed of two near computers.
No internet speed can Ping 0.

@st3mcel @chrisfelcker @VadimYuryev Just because they didn’t ask for your student ID at the store doesn’t mean the rule isn’t in place.
English

@DGxLaw @chrisfelcker @VadimYuryev He’s right though. Bought a Mac Mini like 3 years ago through the Edu store and not once was I asked for verification. Hell, did it in store last year. Just told them I was a student and they didn’t ask me for ID or anything.

Dang Apple is getting FULLY serious about profit margins with the MacBook Neo. Too many people exploiting the effortless $100 discount.
To those that purchased and got it already, congrats because it’s gone forever now lol.
9to5Mac@9to5mac
The honor system is over. Apple now wants to see some ID before handing out the student discount.

@chrisfelcker @st3mcel @VadimYuryev You're the only one wrong here. Never provide any articles or information; just spout nonsense all over. But I guess that’s just who you are.
English

@st3mcel @DGxLaw @VadimYuryev Thanks. No idea why this guy is so adamant about being wrong, but I wasn’t going to spend the rest of my day arguing with him on Twitter!

@biggeekru Who cares about pictures or videos, a bunch of them on the internet… We need reports, agency replies, briefs, and memos. But something makes me believe we are not going to get any.

@fruitharvester @chrisfelcker @VadimYuryev It was on and off for quite a while They implemented it before 2022,then tried to enforce it again, and it became a standard rule starting in January 2022.Since then,it has been inconsistent, but the main rule was using the school government EDU account through UNiDAYS in the US.
English

@DGxLaw @chrisfelcker @VadimYuryev I have worked for Apple for over 10 years and can confirm it was only a thing for a couple of months in 2022. Consumers complained and they went back to the honor system.
English

@st3mcel @chrisfelcker @VadimYuryev I bought 10 macs in last 7 years, and every time it was asking for UNiDAYS log though student account
