It would be incredibly ironic if, with Apple's relatively stable supply chain relative to the chaos of the RAM market these days (projected to last for years), Apple compute became known as a cost-effective way to build medium-sized clusters for inference.
Can we get proper HDR support first in macOS? If I enable HDR on my LG OLED monitor it looks completely washed out and blacks are grey. Windows 11 HDR works fine.
Really? I thought it's always been that HDR was notorious on Windows, hopeless on Linux, and only really worked in a plug-and-play manner on Mac, unless your display has an incorrect profile or something/ https://www.youtube.com/shorts/sx9TUNv80RE

Edit: to be clear, macOS itself (Cocoa elements) is all SDR content and thus washed out.

Now we need some hardware that is rackmount friendly, an OS that is not fidly as hell to manage in a data center or headless server and we are off to the races! And no, custom racks are not 'rackmount friendly'.
I imagine that M5 Ultra with Thunderbolt 5 could be a decent contender for building plug and play AI clusters. Not cheap, but neither is Nvidia.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

MacOS does wash out SDR content in HDR mode specifically on non-Apple monitors. An HDR video playing in windowed mode will look fine but all the UI around it has black and white levels very close to grey. Edit: to be clear, macOS itself (Cocoa elements) is all SDR content and thus washed out.
Very cool. It requires a fully-connected mesh so the scaling limit here would seem to be 6 Mac Studio M3 Ultra, up to 3TB of unified memory to work with.
