It’s crazy that Apple is producing hardware that I would want now. Where’s the equivalent thinkpad??

    This guy, Jake, used to work at LTT/LMG, and has recently started his own channel. I do hope he finds a new groove, as I preferred his presentation style while he was at LTT. He seems to have adopted a “YouTuber” way of presenting - overexaggerating things, and being often overly impressed. Even seeing him on Zip Tie Tuning (a couple of other former LMG people’s new channel), he seemed to act more like I remembered him on LTT. Like I said, I just hope he finds a groove.

    I also was super not aware how much he was into Apple products, which is weird for a tech enthusiast.

    So is everyone downvoting because the video is bad or because they are a Linux nerd upset someone posted something that’s not Linux (as they downvote while using an Android or Apple phone)?

      I didn’t downvote, but here’s why I didn’t upvote:

      • didn’t mention the model in the title
      • watched a minute or so and there’s a “wait until later” bit at the start and it’s filled with that ADHD jump cut nonsense every few seconds
      • I don’t really care about Apple products

      Maybe it’s one of those. Maybe it’s something else. Idk.

      Downvoting because the title says “best” and I disagree. Apple products have a bunch of drawbacks, I wouldn’t buy them even if the hardware is strong and efficient.
