Correction Note: Whoops, Linus meant Mac Mini, not Macbook Mini at 0:57
Was about to say hahah
WHY DID YOU LIE, I BELIEVED THAT
Hey
Linus is a fucking Diva!
I like the new title
can't believe he didn't go for the actual air joke and poke at the fact that it's fanless
They keeping for the review on the big channel
I was literally waiting for him to say it.. but it didn’t come.
Well to be fair it's the Macbook Air, not the Macbook Wind.
@@moonlight-hm4bh depending on thermals it could also be the MacBook fire
@@AtDeskLamp It definitely already was in the past, so the thermals of this one doesn't matter, Macbook Fire it is
OBS Project team member here! Flattering that the first thing you think of trying on the M1 is us :)
We're working towards full native ARM support, there's parts (all right now?) that are just emulated, but seem to work ok. Also, the CPU usage listed in OBS is in the context of the process itself, and not the whole system. It's... a bad metric, honestly, I wouldn't use it for any kind of real benchmarking as it's fairly arbitrary.
also, probably isn't emulated, is translated.... by the way, fucking legend!!! your team changed the stream shit forever ajajajajajaj
great work on OBS, i love using it to livestream!
Thanks for what you’re helping for the industry man. Tell the team to keep up the good work!
I LOVE OBS but it makes my 16 inch macbook pro scream.
You think gcc or other compilers will release new versions targeting the arch?
"They should call it the Macbook Success" ...Didn't they try that with the iPhone 6S already?
Underrated lol
Damn, I was gonna comment this
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHAAAAAAAHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAA
Didn’t even think of that 😂😂😂🤣 nice one
Woah damn
You can tell it's a PC user when using two hands on the trackpad :)
lol
Yeah right? Even though I have to use two hands for better dragging, I just keep using one hand for my Mac. Magic Trackpad is just too good.
But.. I’m a lifetime pc user an I use one hand. Tho I might get the m1 air

Friendly note, the same behaviour as option-clicking the green button is achieved by double clicking the title bar
Same as windows but he never tried it
For me that minimizes the window. I guess you need to have it configured or something. Also I don't get why Linus wants to have the dock and menu bar constantly wasting a big chunk of space! 😂
@@indianakernick3788 to be fair, it's the dock that is huge (you can make it smaller though). Long-time Windows users are just used to having a taskbar at the bottom of the screen.

The “drag to install” option allows you to start an application without installing it. You don’t have to copy it to applications first. It’s a nice feature sometimes.
On windows you can also unzip the exe and try it, or install it in a temp folder
@@ghejnuni didn't know this, but I doubt many people even knowing what the temp folder is
@@ghejnuni you don't know what you are talking about, it works for certain applications, but if the application needs some other files you can't just unzip the exe, but the whole folder. More importantly it does not matter if you install the software in a temp folder, once you run the exe it can do literally whatever the programmer wanted it to do, including installing files anywhere, registry entries, other software and you as a regular user can do nothing about it, so if you feel safe for installing software inside a temp folder, you clearly have not a deep understanding of how things work (if you need to quickly try apps in a bit safer way, I'd suggest a sandbox app or a virtual machine)
its a security thing on unix systems.
basically it prevents the applications from ever getting directory access and therefore protects your data
wait actually? So if I double click on the application on that screen, it'll run but it's not actually installed on the computer?

No cap tho
First impressions. Anthony's reviews are good because he spends more than a couple of hours revieweing stuff.
I feel like I just watched Linus whine for almost 12 minutes straight.
Yes, you did just watch whining Canadian goose.
He can't just accept that apple proved him wrong. Lol..
That’s why I just skipped the video. No time for this. No content, just “oh I don’t like Apple” stuff
@@VIPDARUA "just “oh I don’t like Apple” stuff
" uh... sounds like he was overall positive about it to me.
@@RWoody1995 positively denying the fact?
I think the advantage of the drag system instead of the double click feature is to prevent accidental installs! I mean, it's easy to accidentally click 'ok' or 'cancel' but you can't accidentally drag something..
Watching Linus work a Mac is one of the most boomer experiences I've ever had.
Linus should just invite Justine over to do this!. Mac is her thing....
Ikr, I still can’t believe he’s this bad :/
Doesn’t make sense for a RUclipsr to be openly critical of a system he doesn’t know how to use proficiently, if you ask me. I appreciate his PC insights, but I have to roll my eyes at every Apple video
Tbh, I'm ten years younger than him and would be as clueless as him when faced with a Mac of any kind
@@Ozuhananas It’s very simple to use macs tho , there’s only a little learning curve , but you’ll get the hang of it after using it for a while... But unlike you, Linus is reviewing a product and he doesn’t even know how to use it ..
Five minutes of this video is Linus yelling at Mac OS to get off his lawn, lol...
Why you have to drag apps to the folder to install: You can actually run many apps off the disk image without saving them to your computer which is very handy.
Don’t worry about having sense on an LTT video
I didn't get that part, why he was complaining exactly? The lack of a setup wizard or what?
@@AlejandroLZuvic something about not being like a 3rd party app named 'Ninite'
@@marcovargas6205 ninite installs programs completely without any input, so I can understand why he would be annoyed they didn't choose to have the even more painless installation process. That said, apparently you can actually run the program like this without actually installing it yet, which actually sounds like a handy feature, so him getting upset about it not working the way he thinks it should is more just ignorance about its potential rather than stupidity
Oh I didn’t know that. That’s kinda cool

@@yony_music because the name "air" relates to fans quite well
@@bguy510 I got the joke haha, thanks for the explanation. I am just very surprised, that the macbook air is simply a macbook pro without a fan and a touchbar, which is pretty ridiculous
I thought that’s where Linus was going at first with the “air” name comment haha
The reason you need to drag the application to the Applications Folder Shortcut in that small window is because on a Mac the program is contained inside a file that acts like a virtual drive. The application is then copied from the virtual drive to the Applications Folder and is then installed.
If it was to be made simpler by having it install on click then the file would have to be executable from the get-go, which I believe is against the Macintosh Operating System.
Even so, some applications you can download as a package and the package runs a setup wizard just like Windows where you have to select the installation location and agree to all the steps and keep on clicking Next, Next, Next, etc. which is more tedious than that drag and drop feature.
At the end of the day its a small ask to drag the application to the Applications Folder Shortcut. Hope this helps Linus, and anyone else who read it.
Picked up one of these (the base model) last night and initial impressions are good... The battery truly does last forever. First time back on Mac in nearly a decade and man it feels like it hasn't changed a bit haha

Did u ever feel the speakers were slightly too bassy and make it hard to hear what people say when there is music and speaking at same time
The reason why you have to drag applications into a folder is because it literally isn't an installer at all. Applications on macOS are literally just directories you dump into a folder, and the .DMG you open is just a disk image with the directory in it and a shortcut for convenience. Want it on a USB stick? Drag it to a USB stick. Don't want the application anymore? Toss it in the trash, it's gone. You can have proper installers on macOS but that gets rid of the benefit of macOS's more isolated application packaging.
On Windows, you need installers, because Windows doesn't provide an easy way to package applications at all. Furthermore, those installers often need to install dependencies into your Windows system (DirectX runtimes are notorious for this). This makes "uninstallation" a nebulous and tricky concept as Windows does not keep track of what files are part of which applications. Applications have to ship their own uninstallers to do that for Windows, and there are shared dependencies that Windows doesn't reference count, so you can't ever safely uninstall them lest applications you installed afterwards break.
(I really like how Linux gets around this with package managers and the kinds of curation you can only do when your software ecosystem is all Free Software. This still requires you to actually use an installer, but the installer is actually smart enough to manage your entire system, and it's *part* of your system. Packages are just archives and the installer tracks what files go where. It also tracks dependencies, so if you uninstall an app, the OS can actually tell what can safely go away with it. It even handles core OS updates with the same mechanism!)
Doesn't fit with his "I hate apple" agenda.
Reason number 5,649 that windows is a disaster....
Unfortunately windows is unavoidable for most people.

Watching Linus try to use macOS is like watching iJustine try to use Linux..
wow 10/10 analogy there buddy. you are definitely a macOS user. well played.
She acts. Linus doesn’t
Uhhhhhhhhhh. 😂
Has she actually done that in a video? Because I'd love to see that.
Linus complains about so many things in macOS, even some things that I significantly prefer over Windows, like blocking extensions etc from running without your permission. The bar for user-friendliness isn't exactly set high by Windows and Linux so he could at least excuse some of macOS's little quirks (like the fullscreen system) because there are so many other things It does that are just... better.
And to everyone who wants to start telling me to use Windows or Linux and I'd actually find they are way better - I use all three OSes regularly and I find Windows particularly to be very frustrating - Linux is just as frustrating but for more excusable reasons, such as lack of software that actually does the job I need it to.
Lmao ijustine sucks, don't know shit about tech...
Is the title changed? Yesterday was "I don't know how to use the Macbook Air"
yeh it did, he took flak for hating on m1 when the benches proved him wrong. now he's trying to make up lol
@@octoslut lol
He put the sticker onto the machine, so maybe he still doesn't know how to use it.
@@octoslut He never hated on the M1. He was hating how Apple went about presenting it and was reserving judgement until Anthony could benchmark them
@@jeevana.6391 lmao he compared it to an ipad, yeah ipad are great but definitely not a compliment
linus was really about to shred that install before Andy reminded him of "Next->Next->Install->Next->Finish->Yes"
lol yeah, then he started grasping for something.
I did a few installs recently on my windows computer, they were all 9 clicks to complete, from initial double click of msi/exe. On Mac it's one double click and a drag (or 2 "clicks"). You really have to be silly to prefer 9 clicks per install vs 2.
To be fair he was doing a ninite comparison than just standard .exe install. You will probably find he uses a script to install new apps like ninite every time on a new setup. I use ninite every day in my work flow with new Windows devices I have to set up, with Linux at home and legit forgot that the standard Windows install is "next next next next finish" until people mentioned it here
@@odinsplaygrounds 9 clicks gives you control. It's not 9 pointless clicks. You get to choose where it gets installed, what components get installed, and other things
FYI you can automate clickless instalations in windows if you don't want to read or choose anything for any instalation.
The key difference is that one has meaning, dragging does nothing is just for show and uncomfortable for power users
*0:58** “Lesser than the MacBook Mini”, the what lol*

Alternate Title: Linus getting pissed at MacOS for 11 minutes
He complains so much... so much
Basically alternate title for anything Linus does with Apple
I love Linus, but with MacOS he complains about so many small stupid things that aren't an issue at all when you daily drive the operating system. I use both Windows (main PC) and MacOS (MacBook Pro) and don't have any major issues with either. That's why I much prefer Anthony's videos on Macs.. cause he actually uses them.
@@MrDSimba Yes. I think that he hates so much macOS, it is not funny anymore to watch how he complains. I mean, i can stop watching his videos. However he must be aware that he is an 'influencer' and even we want or not... his opinion matter much more that others... He sometimes creates a bad image not only for macOS but also for Windows, etc based only in certain specific features. (e.g i would love to watch him roast Apple for the lack of support for Data scientists, (e.g. no nvidia gpu support) But instead he makes people believe that a touchscreen is a must for every computer... When actually no one has the statistics to prove if or not people actually want and use it)
Tbh apple could simplify their wierd installation method
I just realized that they nailed this format, short circuit the quick and dirty explanation of something and then an in depth dive on LTT
With a strong emphasis on "dirty" in this one...
I think this was their worst video in a while. He's just bitching about how windows is > than osx, which isn't really insightful into the product. Also, he clearly has a prejudice here, and it's an extremely skewed perspective
Really? I am always disappointed when I click and there isn't any review or benchmark but 95% redundant information.
@@TheBlazingRiver if you were here early. The original title was "unboxing and first impression" . Then comments about his prejudice and baseless nitpicking flooded. For damage control, they changed the title to make this like a sudden funny sarcastic video lol. Its pretty patethic to be honest. I use a PC but I praise good tech when I see one.

This was painful to watch! Linus looked like he was in pain the whole time and never smiled or acted anything like his normal behavior. If this product would’ve been from a different company I have a feeling he would’ve been a little more upbeat with a more typical high energy review…
Exactly, it was review of True Tone, setup and app installation process which is so simple yet "worse than windows" (you must be very biased to make such statement ... i'm not surprised when it comes to this guy really). Sad that's what people watch and he gets paid really well for such bs.
He’s not allowed to be enthusiastic and overwhelmingly positive towards an Apple product. He’s got too many PC gamers as subscribers.

You're missing the point.
The point is the drag and drop to start the installation is pointless....you've already clicked on the installer/file to install it, why have the weird drag and drop step?
Linus also agreed with Andy that the Apple installation process is nicer as is anyway
Take it up with the software devs. Unless you're software needs to integrate with the os for some reason, you can absolutely have a single folder or even a single executable. That almost no-one provides that isn't on Windows.
@@AtomicTim because of permissions.
There’s a reason why dragging to Applications (or ANY other folder) has to be done by the user: by default Mac apps can’t even see what folder they are in, and certainly can’t put files anywhere.
So if you don’t want to drag app to Applications, you would have to give one app a permission to write to your Applications folder, which is a very secure location, relatively. Outside of your user directory.
Alternative (some apps do this) is to just unzip directly instead of using disk image. I prefer this, but MANY users just run apps from Downloads folder forever, never moving to Applications.
I would behave the same when I got my first Macbook as a Windows user for like 20 years. It took me a year to get used to a MacOS and now I like it more than Windows.
as a long time windows user who has been getting used to macOS... I still like windows more, but macOS is more useful for basic tasks because of how simple and clean a lot of the stuff is. For real work though.... windows is still better in a lot of situations
Linus went from "meh" to "woah" in two title changes
You're just downloading a disk image and then drop the application itself completly into the programs folder. That's it. One of the best installationprocesses ever.
It made more sense when you were actually putting in a CD. no need to double click a dmg. Finder just popped up.
The reason disk images are used for downloads is that apps are technically directories, but this fact is hidden by macOS to a degree.
I suppose a dev could encapsulate their app in a zip file and then Safari would extract it immediately, letting you drag the app straight from downloads to applications.
Best install process is just from a repo. Having to drag and drop is dumb. Just let me double click and click "install" and then get it out of my sight.
This is by far not "One of the best installation processes ever". Pip is easy. Apt is easy. The App Store is easy. Ninite is easy. Downloading an image, then opening that image in a window, then dragging and dropping an item in that image into another folder, then closing the image's window is NOT easier than pressing "next" a few times, and I'm in no way saying an installer with ~5 nexts is in any way a good way to install software.
@@nextlifeonearth Yes, Pip and apt is easy but not useful for people who just work with the computer to photoshop or to netflix and want to download a new app. They don't know how to use the comand line. And some clicks on the installer means: "Copying files to x random directories" where you have to find them when you want to clear your pc from that program
@@joshisanimationstudio9927 apt and pip have gui front ends. That's much more intuitive. Just type the name and click the thing you want.
I don't mind the move to ARM chips, at least all of the people sat next to me in the library wont have their macbook fans ramped up to the maximum while they're typing on Microsoft Word.
They wont be fighting over power outlets either, I see this as an absolute win for PC laptop owners.
The high fan speed is a result of how horrible is the whole experience of any Microsoft app on OSX.
@@ivanpocintela6867 no the whole point is the performance of the old macs were just simply not scratch coz of Intel and also because Apple can't design an adequate cooling solution for it

alternate video title: "old man grouchy over new computer, about as expected - MAYBE MORE!"
@Linus the reason for dragging the app is that it's much easier to put this certain app to an external folder. It's not really an installation which writes itself into the OS. But real installations are often used by larger programs.
The application install makes sense Linus:
1. That way you can easily tell your users that the app is installed in that directory
2. If the user wants to install it in another directory, he can just drag it anywhere else.
It is a graphical version of the "default install location" option on windows app installers
Excuse me, I've been using my macbook for 5 years and I still have no idea what this drag thing is for. How do I drag it to my preferred location if all I see is one Application folder? How do I navigate wherever I want? Also why there are several half transparent icons besides one for an actual App? Do I also drag them? If not, what happens if I do? Why some of them have a red line over them? Do I NOT drag them? Or are they corrupted or what? Installing Apps has been one of the most confusing and unintuitive processes on macOS.
He just hates
Apple.
Drag and drop to trashcan to eject. Could make sense, but sense is also based on experience. I don't expect that drag and drop will setup the app if I'm used that draging and dropping will move files only. MacOS Experience and heuristics can't be taked for granted just because it was made to be "intuitive", and fails most of the time because PCs with other OSs makes things way different. Is not bad, but different enough to separate experience and breach the users even more.
@@rinrin4711 Honestly i think you should try and see what happens :)
and if you really don't like it or don't understand... complain and if nothing happens... change OS

May I ask about your job? Do you do something else aside from putting stickers? Also, is it fun?
Where do you work bro
does it pay well tho?
i think the point of having to drag the app into the app folder is so that you dont have to actually"install" the app to use it, you can open it and see if you want it, then add it to your library after.
It would be interesting to see how much advantage the higher spec machine provides over the base model.
In 2012, I joked with my co-worker that we needed a MacPad, and we are now almost there.
Linus, for the Macbook Pro vid, can you guys do some showcase of audio workflow in Logic Pro with some processor and RAM heavy plugins. My studio uses the 2018 refresh of the 13 inch Macbook Pro for remote recording. That is the kind of workload that I think would be a good showcase for the new chipset.
Holy cow, Option + Green Button.. You learn something new everyday.
hehe he sounds like when my parents ask for help with electronics "what is this? why have this at all? i already clicked that, can you help me?" lol
Tell Anthony to finish his review on M1 mac mini and upload it now.
Whenever I watch a video where Linus reviews an Apple product, It reminds me of my Math Teacher who hated me religiously and always found mistakes even if there wasn't any scope of finding them.
Maybe they have something in common and are being fair about the situation but you can't see the forest from the trees
@@italgod or maybe they're just an asshole
Like saying you miscalculated Pi because you didn't list it to infinity.

@@prathwik0 Sadly I'm not even a Googol :-(
The installation has this process because sometimes there are other files and/or instructions seperated from the app itself. In that case, you will see 2, 3, 4 icons, maybe one of them is a README, maybe one of them is a supplementary piece of software or extension software that you may/may not necessarily need. Lots of times there is only this one icon for the entire .app package for you to drag to the applications folder, so if you haven't been using it for a while you will not be able to understand why this is the case. This provides the users with a chance to select software that you need.
he sounds so sleepy in this video compared to how he usually was before the beard! and the voice is deeper
I think in 3 - 4 years time, Apple will find a way to integrate the SSD along with the SoC.
Hi! May I ask what would be the better buy? This M1 Macbook Air or an Ipad Pro/Air 4? Which do you find more productive?
*I would go for the Macbook, but I do really want to use an Apple Pencil to take note on the Ipad as I'm currently a college freshman, and as some don't really mind, I would greatly benefit with the main camera. Thus, is it worth it that I choose an Ipad Pro/Air 4 over the Macbook just because of these? I'm gonna use it as my one and only tool, so it's kinda hard to decide since I value efficiency and productivity that, as I have heard from people, Macbook offers more than an Ipad.
iPad with keyboard is better than Macbook for students, since you can also take notes
A new iPad Pro is coming out in March. But I would still go for a MacBook, it is a lot more useful in college/university than an iPad. You need a full desktop OS. I bought a iPad Pro 9.7 back in 2016 for when I started university and regretted it 1 month into it. I got an Mac and it was wayyyyy more useful for doing assignments and work.
@@HegoDamaskII thank you, sir. currently, that's what i think also. i plan now to buy first a Macbook then I still need an Ipad, imma save it for it afterwards.
9:06 "Oh here you go here you go, its not worki.. some system preference stuff " LOL
Instead of the "Intel Inside" sticker, it must have a "Anthony says "It's pretty cool!!" sticker...
Technically the later sticker is more valid...
"Anthony seal of approval"
Macs never ever had those stickers
I hope someone who is familiar to macOS reviews the new hardware, cuz Linus doesn't give a damn.
Thats why they have Anthony
anthony is the man!!!
He’s not objective when it comes to reviewing Apple products. He was such a douche when Dave 2D called him up on the live stream the other day. Came across really badly
No. Only pc users will review the new mac's for now on.
Hi PC, I'm Linus
Finally i know how to maximize a window in mac !!!! Thanks Linus !!!
( option + green button )
Was wondering how much GB is the total Os system taking up the ssd with this new m1 ?
I find it hilarious we live in a time that getting a charger with your device is a cause for celebration 😂
Missed a chance a to say. " Official Sticker sticker".
how about for longevity esp when they update their chip? is it better if i buy the base product and change it after 2 yrs? or what is best to buy now that would last me at least 5yrs?
i tend to keep my laptop until it dies, esp now that mine broke 2 months ago. i really need one. cant decide what to get. i tend to be in my laptop for many hours web surfing, streaming,download, school stuff, play games all at the same time. (i tend to change what i do a lot depending when im bored). i also like to learn how to edit clips and learn how to code. what is better for me in terms of RAM,Memory, Air or pro?
thank u
my use case is to run OBS alongside 10 chrome tabs running 24*7.
is this macbook m1 air base model suitable for me ?
1) Am i going to regret not having fans sometimes in future ?
2) is this 8 gig ram enough to handle these 10-15 tabs with OBS without burning my thighs/Lap while planning to use this for Long Hours..
i really don't have any other use case otherthan those 10-15 chrome tabs and obs studio... running 24*7 - 24*6
Need Legit advice only please...
probably not the base model, but an air would probably be a good option for you overall, if you're willing to pay the apple tax and the apple extortionate upgrade prices
I'd recommend comparing the ram usage for your current most demanding tasks you're currently running and see if the 8 gb the base model has is enough for you.
People in the future will say *IS THAT A CHARGER?!!* like how they’re saying *IS THAT A SUPRA?!!* right now.
No one says is that a supra but 12 year old fan boys who think a supra comes with 2000hp stock lmao

Regarding the application install process on macOS, something that is quite nice in comparison to Linux or Windows is how easy it is to try out an app.
You don't have to install it but can just run it. And if you like it drag it into the Applications folder and you're set.
To be honest, the way Windows handles software installation seems to be the worst of all of them, but maybe that's just my opinion.
You can do the exact same on windows
Put your iPhone next to your new mac when installing it (just like installing a new iphone when you are replacing your older iPhone) and it will copy all the settings making it easier i.m.o.
I still don’t understand wanting a touchscreen laptop. Unless the screen detaches, why would you want to constantly reach over a large keyboard to use the touchscreen when you have a trackpad and shortcut keys?
Sometimes when Im helping my mom I lean over and scroll with the touch screen
🎵 "all I want for Christmas... is an ltt ram shirt"
"Ooooooh!" 🎵
I'd much rather get that mouse pad, looking very nice
the drag and drop installation process is an underlying security check. its how their kernel of unix has to deal with its security check, as a way to prevent things from 'just installing' on the machine. so that deliberate action is actually there to protect you from letting just any random thin install without your input
That's really interesting, as coming from lifelong windows user there are things about mac os such as that that are not intuitive, it's nice to know the reason behind (Ps all you apple fans out there, you can't use words like magic in your marketing (and unlabeled Graphs) and then be surprised at a bit of scepticism, hopefully it is really good, but it can't be taken for granted)
@@forferdeilig I have a theory as to why the 'magic' thing has really taken off in the last decade or so, macOS does a lot of little things like what I described above, and it's simply too much to explain to everyone how or why that works, especially because most of those things you can't actually ever SEE working. So they just say it's done by 'magic' unless you wanna read a 500 page white paper and get a CS degree hahahaha
@@random_bit I'm not totally sure, but I'm SOMEWHAT sure it only requires a password if the resulting application needs any kind of elevated permissions for its access. For things like accessibility, or hardware acceleration, or terminal access/emulation and stuff
Even beyond this security feature; If I just want to run a program a single(s) time, or test the program before "installing", this feature makes that easy. Doing the same in Windows either requires a VM or containerization - which sucks.
@@random_bit I’m probably misunderstanding you - it becomes part of the conversation when that is the UX you have to use to accomplish the same task.
I could compare it Linux, but that often times has a lack of UX.
Thank you! I cant unhear the ‚error‘ now any more...
I appreciate the fact you did an unboxing. And didnt just jump into the review
is touchscreen but a mere compensation for lack of quality touchpad? Idk, never had any desire to spread grease over the screen
...while holding the screen with one hand in place. The wobble by itself makes touch on a laptop completely impractical.
Touchscreens have an oleophobic coating. That's why your phone don't get greasy too.
@@guilhermems Yeah, nice in theory and for the first couple of weeks till it wears off.
Why tf does everyone complaining about touch have oily or crusty *ss fingers. I have used touch laptops and they have their advantages, 2 in 1s are far better for implementing touch. No the screen isn't covered in grease, wash your hands more often.
@@Smile.911 still, nobody could give me a single compelling reason why touch would add anything to a computer that can't be done with a good touchpad and less hassle / arm strain. Use a Mac touchpad and you will know what I mean.
I don’t know maybe this is a tutorial how NOT to use an Apple product 🤣
Really enjoyed Andy chipping in here and there! I quite like ShortCircuit with the back and forth between the host and the camera guy
I’m honestly so interested to see what the desktops and next Mac Pro are like, where the power comes from the wall and the heat goes everywhere. That’ll be somethin to see with how these already are.
I find the installation process to be very nice and reassuring that the program is really just copied to one place and that it doesn’t create files all over your hard drive.
There is something elegant to transparency.
Meanwhile: You can literally fly from Brazil to the US and buy TWO of those, and that (including the flight tickets) would still be cheaper than the same MacBook air bought from Apple in Brazil (R$12 999,99)
Oh wow. That is horrible.
@@johncaling6150 I heard it's the same thing in India... I wish more reviewers talked about how much of a scam Apple is outside of North America and Europe
Apple has their prices so damn high in some countries and I dont understand why
@@EduardoGananca it's not really apples fault though it's because of customs and tarrifs
@@EduardoGananca Apple might put a markup but import tariffs and duties add a pretty big increase to the price. A lot of the extra price goes to the govt and not to Apple necessarily.
can you also do a render test with it against the compensator, or an amd 3950x machine? just curious to where it stands against a high end machine.
So is it really 6x faster over the 3x of the previous 50% increase of the 2x?

It's ok, I'd make the same mistake
Is it just me or does LTT change the titles of their videos like every day?
🤯
Lots of you tubers change titles and thumbnails several times after uploading. Must be algorithm manipulation.
First, they need a catchy title for the fanboys who have notifications enabled. Then they need a different title for people who actively search for videos. This is just my assumption though.
@@Wickedsight probably a pretty good assumption 👌
@@Wickedsight that makes sense
as a windows user, the macos drag to applications folder is a better solution in my opinion. ninite is great, but you basically only use it once (and its 3rd party, normally the msi installers take longer than apples), as it has some but not all applications i might download. (my opinion)
If you guys had one of your thunderbolt SSD's with mac apps, you can run a mac app right off the drive. I've done that for some native mac games downloaded from the App Store. I used to carry Wings of Liberty on a USB stick to test it out in the Apple store.
Even Linus can’t help but “ahhhhh” when he lifts the Mac out of the box.
Also, homebrew for installs direct from the command line
Apple really does packaging better than anyone else.
homebrew is a big pile of garbage, sorry
@@MM0x2A Why? I've literally never had any issues with it and that's with 50+ casks and 100+ formulae.
@@Studio23Media Really scraping the barrel if that's something you specifically compliment about a product line XD Like saying 'Well the meal was bland and tasteless, but hey the colours on the wrapper were amazing!'.
Yea - since he mentioned ninite I'm surprised no one mentioned Homebrew.
