Yeah, I also only have 8 gig in mine. I used to run into problems when I had multiple accounts running, with each accounts actively running Adobe apps, Figma, IDEs. That ‘lil fella couldn’t take that lol.

The Macs with 16gig can handle that abuse with no problem. 8 gigs, not so much. Lol.

I still use a little M1 Air as a daily driver, but I have some of the newer hardware for work, and now I want to upgrade to that stuff. The newer Apple Silicon is kind of nutty.

Still though, for a 6-year-old machine, it’s still perfectly fine for day-to-day stuff. I only notice the crunch when I throw some of my processor intensive software development toys at it. The latest dev beta of MacOS 27 even runs great on it.

Apple does a lot of shitty stuff, but their silicon game has been solid.

Apple is still updating all their arm macs, even the old M1s.

My guess is that you’ll get a lot of people who are are on newer M series hardware, but kept the old stuff around (I’m one of those people), or you get these larger / midsize enterprises that just accumulate a shit ton of 1-3 year old computers that are perfectly fine, but are just gathering dust.

Two big use cases. You want to run MacOS and Linux on the same hardware, and you boot into each OS separately at different times.

Or, you have old personal or enterprise hardware sitting around, and you’d like to repurpose it for Linux. That use case is a tale as old as time.

In the movie Lois mocks him for being a goody two shoes who listens to bad pseudo punk. He thinks he’s cool, but he’s actually a huge dork, but he means well.

Not worth it. Trump will brag and name drop the guest list, like he always does.

Then the non-cult public will shit on the celebs. Then when they don’t show, people will think they really wanted to go, but chickened out.

Brad Duotang was so hot when I was in school.

Nothing says apolitical like the biggest political rally ever.

No one if going to get a Berkeley California style liberal elected in Maine. The people there historically vote for purple candidates.

The most liberal candidate will be bluer shade of purple, that caucuses with the Dems, and makes it harder for the GOP to get a majority and to control the senator.
