So that's how it worked with MacOS and Windows? Color me surprised. But bth, Google doesn't seem to care about Android either. Chrome supports it on Snapdragons and that's it. Do y…

What exactly is an old Intel mac and what is a casual work? For example, I have 2015 macbook pro. The last macos release for it is Monterey. Even brew has problems with that, error…

Not really; vintage macs turning obsolete are being dropped from the macOS support very reliably. I.e. the 2015 mbp was dropped from 2022 macos release like on the clock.

Never seen this; however, youtube prefers pushing VP9 over H.264. Maybe your computer cannot use hardware decode for VP9 and can for H.264? (Since you mentioned, it is an older one…

Do they? There's no lack of Electron UIs on Mac and Windows. What's even a native widget library on Mac and Windows today? Do Swift-UI and WinUI (v3 nowadays) count? It's not as cl…

It is, but on the other hand, I would prefer to have plastic display with two inputs (since I have two computers; desktop and laptop) than aluminum one with just one input.

5K displays are very limit set in the first place. There is Studio Display, LG Ultrafine 5K and Samsung ViewFinity 5K. Samsung seems to be better value than Studio Display.

It was a response to Youtube playing stupid games with demonetizing and changing thresholds for payouts; they thought, that they can push creators around. They were wrong.

So what gives you a right to download and use the software in the first place? The copyright law forbids that by default. What permission other than the license do you have?

It is right in the license.

So get a stronger one. There will be always something that is better on one or another side. I have 13th gen i7, with 64 GB RAM and 2 TB ssd (and 2.5 GbE). It was 800 EUR + VAT, la…

Comment #42120561
NUC 14th gen with i3 is around 400 EUR with VAT, with no RAM or storage. For the other 250 EUR, surely you can get more RAM than 16 GB and more storage than 256 GB.
