Why are you touching the screen when you open/close your laptop??? Do you close your car doors with the window?
Car door windows often have a significant frame of several cm and it's still quite easy to have your fingertips touch the glass while closing it. On a laptop I would imagine it's actually more likely that fingertips would touch the screen while opening it.

Because it's the same shit every year for the past 5 years with the M line. 2010 to 2015 was a major improvement, 2015 to 2020 was a major improvement, now they pretty much solved the computer/laptop problem for 99% of people. I'm on a 16gb m1 air, I see absolutely no reason to update.
Thunderbolt 5 is honestly more compelling than much anything else about the chips; I wish there was something else to talk about.

Not true everywhere. Only where required by law, so complain to your government.
This was debunked so many times and people still repeat this crap. No government mandates lack of charger.
Can someone comment on the new dual die thing they’re promoting for how they make the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips? How is that different from the silicon interposer they were using before? The big change is the two dies don’t have to fabbed next to each other in a single wafer, which is fantastic for costs and yields. But would this affect the interconnect speed somehow? How would the two be wired together? Could this me…
Curious about that as well. They seem to market it as a technological advancement, which it is, but rather than being excited im actually worried about hidden latencies that could come with that approach. Have you found any interesting info on that yet?
I just bought a M5 Macbook Pro 2 weeks ago. Thinking of returning it and getting a M5 Pro with the same configuration but only $200 more. How should I compare M5 vs M5 Pro?
You'll get slightly more performance and ever so slightly less battery life. I'd do it

Because your countries mandate no power adapter for some stupid ewaste reason.
They didn't: https://9to5mac.com/2025/10/16/no-the-eu-didnt-ban-apple-fro... Devices should be offered without a charger. There's no law that states that that should be the default configuration. Nor that the charger should cost extra.
I have an m4 pro MBP, 1tb storage and 24gb RAM. Not seeing any reason to consider an upgrade whatsoever.
So it still can’t run the big AI models locally due RAM limitations. Maybe next time!
