benisntfunny posted:Which stand? I assume standard because you have it already? Yeah, that's right. It is barely needs-suiting for me, but to be honest, it isn't perfect, and I can see how a different setup would make it kind of lovely.

Ok Comboomer posted:“Barely needs-suiting” isn’t acceptable for any product from Apple in 2022, much less one that starts at $1500. it's just a monitor stand. it's fine. it can be barely needs-suiting. i'm fine with it being barely needs-suiting. please, please calm down. this is embarrassing and coloring a ton of people's opinions about you.

The Lord Bude posted:People who buy MBAs are overwhelmingly not using or wanting to use multiple displays though; and MBAs are not intended for the sort of people who are going want to plug their computer into a multi screen setup. We keep having this deeply silly argument. The statistics are pretty clear - 90% of Mac owners do not use an external display at all. The majority of the remaining 10% use a single display. Multi display setups are extremely uncommon. I’d wager they’re extremely uncommon even in the PC space; and I’d be willing to bet they are becoming increasingly less common now that we can quite easily buy giant rear end 30” monitors or 38” ultra wides; all of which do a better job of giving you more screen real estate than multiple smaller monitors with bezels and poo poo getting in the way. The market for people who need multiple monitors and also very explicitly don’t need or want the extra performance of an m1 pro would be incredibly small. ok but this is dumb as hell actually. cause like, if they just supported multiple monitors it'd work fine. they don't because they know they get extra money upcharging for it. that's all. it's dumb. sorry!! Ok Comboomer posted:funny how a lot of the people complaining the most about this are the same ones who defended spending $1400-1900 on a 5K display with a crappy gimmick webcam that should’ve cost maybe half as much in order to be justifiable posted from my 5k studio display and feeling great. god i love using great products

Tiny Timbs posted:“Yeah it sucks and is inexcusable for the price but here’s a way to get around it at least” is one approach, but perhaps it’s more traditional to go “you’re wrong for wanting to do it.” lol. "You're holding it wrong!!" but for monitors

Ok Comboomer posted:personally I like my computer to still have a bit of mystery and inscrutability about it, makes it feel like it’s a living thing with a personality and a will of its own, you know?—like a cat or a wife or a catgirl wife. i get your point but computers are actually more inscrutable than i think they've ever been! back in the day you really could understand every component and exactly how it worked.

been letting apple engineers optimize my charging for years and my battery health for all my devices is in the 90s-percent. love my studio display. doing great in the mac hardware thread  has apple made the apple tags less easy for stalkers to use? real question, ive been considering some but that feels like a real issue
