cool flags. I know it is off topic but that juxtaposition displays a sophisticated understanding of geopolitics, ethics and history.
{Off topic: it is off topic (and I hope you're being sarcastic, bc it doesn't require understanding anything except what the news tells us to cheer for this month in US/UK/EU while omitting anything about what's actually happening). That said I come here to avoid that misery so eh a little sad to be reminded of all the violence and suffering here.}
I think the release cadence since apple silicon launched has been interesting to say the least. I expected a straight forward yearly or q2year cycle but this is different. Can it be called exciting? I almost bought an M2 Max to replace my m1pro but held off. The m1pro is actually great but I got 16gb of ram and eh I'm spoiled and want more. I'm fighting myself to backoff bc who knows maybe the m4 will be about in 6 months (ROFL)
