    M2 Pro Mini with 8k TV?

    So, do you think it will be possible for an M2 Pro Mac Mini to drive an 8k TV at its native resolution and use it as a display? Also, it it likely that Apple will produce an 8k monitor? 8k at 40 inches would be 220 ppi, that is, exactly the same same ppi as the iMac 5k (27”), 4k (21.5”), and...

    Devious marketing of M2

    Some sneaky marketing on Apple's part... This article points out that they're comparing the M2 Mac Mini to an older computer (2 generations back) and claiming it's 5x faster than this "bestselling PC." That's pretty devious. How does it compare to a current gen Intel CPU of a similar price...

    Cursor jumping and skipping around MacOS

    My cursor just jumps around after mid-movement like every 10s. It isn't much, but say on a 13" screen, if I move fast, it can jump 5cm. I use a Mac Mini M1 and Logitech G Pro wireless & MagicMouse (they both have the same issue). I disabled the mouse sharing with my iPad, just in case that...

    Anyone planning on getting a Mac Mini anytime soon (before the M2)?

    Hi everyone, I’ve been wanting to get a Mac Mini for a few months now. I DON’T NEED it (have an intel Macbook Pro), but would like a stationary set up while I keep my MacBook Pro elsewhere. Anyway, I’m wondering if anyone is planning on getting a Mac Mini soon, instead of waiting for the M2...

    Connecting Mac mini to Mac Pro

    Hello. I recently had to get a new Mac mini for some work projects. My beloved 2009 Mac Pro 5,1 is still my workhorse for music production, which is also part of my work. The MP has about 10 drives connected (internal & external USB - mechanical & SSD - some of these are for backups) and is...

    Difficult decision: Should I try to "refurbish" my own MacBook Pro?

    Hi everyone, I'm kind of in a special situation. I've got a late 2016 MacBook Pro 15" with the most expensive specs (back then) which is still serving me well. However, I've quit my (gamedev-)job recently to pursue creating games on my own. For this, I am going to live off of my savings for at...

    Windows Registry Editor : Disable BootCamp Apple Software Updates

    Hi all, very niche question. Sometimes apple releases software and driver updates for things such as WIFI, Bluetooth, and most recently trackpad precision for T2 chip models. My limited knowledge of the registry editor leads me to believe that these pop ups/updates/ install requests can be...

    Nobody’s Talking About the M2 Mac Mini

    With Gurman and others expecting new Macs as early as this month, a lot of attention has been focused towards the updated M2 Pro and M2 Max chips. These will undeniably be the showstoppers of any possible event (or press releases), but I have a suspicion that if the Mac Mini is getting an...

    Mac Mini M1 and 2 x Dell U32Q19 - YPbPr issues

    Hi there, I recently got 2 x Dell U32Q19 and decided to hook them up to my Mac Mini M1 using USB-C to USB-C and HDMI to HDMI. At first it looked quite alright, however I noticed that the one connected with HDM seemed a bit more flurry. I figured that the input color format of the monitor was...

    My M1 Mac mini beats my Macbook Pro M1 pro, wtf?!

    I just ran a Speedometer test (https://browserbench.org/Speedometer2.0/) on my M1 Mac mini 16/512 vs my Macbook Pro M1 pro 14" 16/512, both freshly rebooted with no other apps running than Safari, and the mini (score 355) constantly beats the M1 pro (score 345). Wtf? Isn't the M1 pro supposed to...

    Does Photos on an external drive with iCloud turned on use boot drive storage?

    Hi all, I think my 2012 mini is on its last legs, (currently won't get past the boot screen), and I’m wondering how I'm going to transition from its 4tb ssd internal boot drive to the options available now from Apple. I use the mini as a photos backup point (amongst other things), with iCloud...

    Apple TV can't access shared content on Mac Mini suddenly.

    So, I don't remember exactly when it happened, but for the past few months, I have had a problem getting my ATV to connect to my Mac Mini to play movies and other videos. Sometimes, infrequently, I can get it to see the content, and then sometimes it will actually play the content, and...
