Apple silicon Macs also let you install iOS/iPadOS apps. Which App Store is it then?

Windows arm devices boot with UEFI, so standard ARM UEFI images should work, just like on x86. I would bet drivers should be alright too, since these ARM SoCs will likely be similar to ones used in Linux SBCs and Android devices.

It would be fascinating to see Qualcomm, NVIDIA, AMD, Mediatek, and possibly others all competing to build the best ARM SoCs for windows devices, especially after so many years of Intel stagnating and Apple eating their lunch with their ARM SoCs.

5g home internet is not “1 megabit with constant drops” in my experience. I live in a large city in the US and on Verizon I get several hundreds down and 40-70 up depending on the time. I used to have T-Mobile which was worse, but still typically 200mbps down. There is packet loss but it is very low and not an issue. Upload is not great but much better than what the cable company offers. My parents out in the middle of nowhere were still able to get ~50-100 based on conditions. Even then, that’s a huge upgrade over most DSL services.

In the US almost none, the networks are being shut down.

The charging side is complicated to mark accurately because it has to consider current and voltage. Like, a cable might be able to do 60W, but only at 2A@30V, 3A@20V would melt the cable.

My college attendance record was abysmal. Got me a job anyways

Enforcement metrics just show the rate that minorities get harassed by cops and aren’t proportional to crime itself. Crime statistics, unless comparing the same crime per-capita (ie, homicides per 100,000) tend to reflect the amount of regular activities criminalized rather than the number of harmful acts done by individuals (ie, make a drug that many people have a crime, and now you have more crime and more criminals).

It would be extremely difficult to get an arm mac binary to run on windows. Not impossible, but much, much more engineering than bypassing DRM. You’d need reverse wine, which the Darling project could possibly be, but after years of work barely supports GUI applications.

Or just also support Vulkan.

Apple doesn’t support add-in GPUs anymore since switching to Apple silicon. Their iGPUs though are better than other iGPUs, performing in line with mid range discrete GPUs. They want the experience to be more console-like than PC-like though, you buy a standardized set of hardware and that’s that.

Seems kinda pointless to compile most packages unless there are specific performance optimizations or non-default features that can be enabled. I think the way I would use this would be to do binary by default and build only on the occasional instance there is a tangible benefit.
