Honestly, I'm so confused why radical leftists are so pro Russia. It's not like they're communist anymore. In fact, they're an authoritarian kleptocracy, which sounds like the type of government the folks on hexbear and lemmygrad would like the least.

Someone doesn't remember the 9/11 responder funding, hurricane funding, the rhetoric around COVID funding, etc. etc.

Yeah, but every time they try to get rid of it, thousands of people come out of the woodworks to keep it in service.

Ohhh I missed the "H" when I read that. My bad.

Edit: Yeah, I saw the Mac Pro release, but didn't hear much after that. It seemed like it would end up being really niche. I didn't realize they had made a desktop specific m3 chip for it. This is what I get for not following tech recently haha.

I would imagine with apple's poor cooling, many of the Intel and AMD chips would perform worse in the real world in one of their laptops given the difference in power usage. That's just a theory though given their past thermal issues.

Oh yeah, I definitely thought you were the other guy when I was responding, who definitely seems like a tankie.

Ah okay! Thank you for providing sources. It still seems like a competitive chip, but I see I was wrong about it being outright better.

I think the first two comparisons are a little unfair (unless I'm mistaken) since those are both desktop spec chips and apple doesn't realllyyy do desktops anymore.

Like the other guy said, authoritarian communists.

Or authoritarian communists pretending not to be. The type of people to come out and defend everything China and Russia do while decrying "the west" at every opportunity. Constantly at it with "what aboutisms" and other bad faith arguments. People who claim we should vote third party/not vote while pretending they want to make the US better through these actions, when really they just want the US to fail. Jackson Hinkle types or Infra Haz types.

If I recall correctly, tankies are named because tanks were used to put down protests in Czechoslovakia under the USSR and tankies will defend it.

Really? I thought I saw multiple benchmarks with the m-chips blowing all the other Intel and AMD chips out of the water.

Also, having seen new macs, if I wasn't into gaming the m chip macs seem better for the price than anything else on the market. 🤷‍♂️
