Just in time for 16 gigs of memory to start being barely enough

2016: $50 smart home speaker that I use to check the weather and set kitchen timers.

2055: $300, 000 fully autonomous robotic home assistant that I use to check the weather and set kitchen timers.

Riley did NOT deny trying to eat a MacBook just so everyone knows

The worst part of the win 11 settings app has got to be that instead of having buttons that take you to the settings, it instead opens a web browser to show you how to get to the said setting!!! Its actually infuriating

I hope the astronauts are going to get some serious compensation for being stranded up there for six extra months. Way to go Boeing.

Remember when Apple said that 8GB of their RAM was equivalent to 16GB from other companies? Funny times. 😂

The only ever manscaped commercial I didn't hate.

Just wait for the prices of those 16GB and 32GB Macbooks. People gonna be shelling out $1299 for an entry model Macbook Air.

My mind was blown after updating linux for the first time and it not asking me to restart.

Timeline of minimum RAM in Apple's consumer laptops since New World ROM (iBook 1999-2006, MacBook 2006-2011, MacBook Air 2011-present), along with number of days it lasted (updated October 2024):

32 MB: July 21, 1999 (210 days)
64 MB: February 16, 2000 (608 days)
128 MB: October 16, 2001 (736 days)
256 MB: October 22, 2003 (643 days)
512 MB: July 26, 2005 (658 days)
1 GB: May 15, 2007 (617 days)
2 GB: January 21, 2009 (1, 237 days)
4 GB: June 11, 2012 (1, 408 days)
8 GB: April 19, 2016 (3, 116 days)
16 GB: October 30, 2024 (present)

TL;DR: an initial bump quickly as the original RAM was inadequate, then regular upgrades every 20-24 months during the rest of the PowerPC era and the beginning of the Intel era, then really slow upgrades every 3.5-4 years, and then, at the time I originally posted this comment, no upgrades at all since April 2016.

(Update: it only took 3, 116 days for 8 GB to get discontinued. Thanks, Apple Intelligence.)

The cops would never just let AI fill out an OFFICIAL report they will ALWAYS review and edit the first draft before

Classic Techlink "Inedible?" "Have you tried eating a macbook?" ...such good writing and delivery between these two humans.

0:01 Youtube mobile is bad and shows you this comment.

[scorps]

That disturbed reference had me chuckling. Solid

[twentysixbit]

okay riley's truck commercial voice is WAY too good

[JetBen]

You know Apple, the baseline 16GB M4 Macbook Air will not cost 1099$ like the current M3, they will bump the price to 1299$ and they will keep selling the baseline 8GB M3 for 1099$.

4:49 Might actually be the best Manscaped ad Ive ever seen😂

Personal robotics? 100 children? I swear these tech bros™ have one neuron between them.
Hot abs, though; that part I approve.

I used to tell everyone I delivered to that Amazon drivers aren't employees of Amazon, I never met a single person who didn't think that was a scummy business tactic.
