First off, I will say that yes, M1 chipsets are much more power efficient than intel based chips. However, this does not make intel based laptops "laptops that should not have been laptops", as evidenced by Apple (and everyone else) producing them for well over a decade.

1) Even with the thermal dissipation a M1 macbook has, a desktop could cool a M1 better. There's simply more room for a larger heatsink with more surface area, and fans that don't have to throttle, than a laptop format could ever provide And with the coming M1 desktops, we will see this in action.

2) The M1 MacBook Pro has a measured draw of ~120 watts under load (measured by anandtech; there's still the GPU to power, despite the better performance of the M1 itself). Apple power supplies, until recently, topped out at around 90 watts.

Here's where Apple's slightly ahead of the game - they're using the updated PD specs in their latest chargers to get a 140 watts out over USB-C, and packing them with the new 16" macbook pros (though not the 14", they're still topping out at 67/94 watts).

So the outlook for M1's in terms of power is better than average, so long as you pay the Apple tax. Worth it? Perhaps. Perfect? Not yet.
> Does anyone know how to refer these people to law enforcement for prosecution?

This is quite an overreaction. Prosecution?

Besides, would this even be a criminal offense? I'm thinking it is more likely to be a civil case, if anything.

It's not like the police are going to go into the school and perp walk the IT technician out in hand cuffs because your child's laptop has monitoring software installed on it.
USB-A: there are so many crap usb-A cables around that either a) don’t charge b) don’t reliably send data or c) work, but with massive voltage drops leading to very slow charging.

HDMI: HDMI will silently degrade to lower versions of the spec over bad connections, so it might just be that the bad cables are invisible.

Ran GalliumOS all throughout college without any issue. A Toshiba i3 Chromebook + Gallium was easily one of the best laptops I ever had. OP - seriously consider this solution if it wouldn't agitate the school too much. Swap out the usually small (16GB or so) SSD that tends to come with Chromebooks, install Gallium, and you're off to the races. Might still be some weird compatibility issues/edge cases that are hard to predict; maybe run Gallium in a VM, log into your sons Google Classroom, and do some testing first.

Update: some press coverage raising the same questions. The silly part about this is the filing deficiencies seem either inept or willful. Mr. Musk can certainly afford good securities lawyers to make the proper filings. A 13D is not that much more burdensome than a 13G, and some activists use the filing (which gets a lot of free attention) to make statements that to support their objective, whatever that may be.

I agree that car consumers are in general very irrational (in the economic sense), and car purchases are often far more about projecting an image than they are about practicality.

But that also means that consumers don't give a damn about slow recharging or battery degradation. It's mostly what will other people think about me for driving this vehicle. Thus the big pickups whose truck beds never see any duty.

I’ve daily driven a LEAF for 7.25 years. I love it, so this isn’t some anti-EV whine. With that context, there’s no way I’d be happy with the LEAF if we didn’t have a second (ICE) car. Around once a month, I have a day where the LEAF doesn’t have the range to fully reliably do my day of driving so I switch cars with my spouse. I’m not going to rent a car on random short-notice 12x per year.
Agreed. To test my belief in probabilities, I occasionally challenge myself to a few rounds of Russian Roulette.

Likewise for solar -- the DC voltage and current a panel puts out is dependent on both insolation and load -- only in the most simple applications can you just hook in directly to a panel, without involving a DC-DC converter. Even grid-tie installations often use DC-DC converters, called "power optimizers" [1], to optimally tie multiple panels to a single bus.

Agreed. While the iCloud ecosystem provides a smooth experience for personal users, it's super awkward to integrate into a business environment. Activating iMessage for instance, will leave personal text messaging history on the device that can be easily accessed. Same for photo albums, etc.

If the devices are managed (in an MDM) then the assumption should be that anything and everything happening on the device can be seen at any time. The conundrum is that Mac OS is such a personal user-centric operating system that it appears to be difficult for users not to take advantage of those features. It's almost like when you put a treat in front of someone - even if they didn't want it before, once it's right in front of them they suddenly want it.

Edit: Clarification / expounding
A few cents per mile add up when you hope to get 100,000 miles+ out of your vehicle. $0.10 * 100,000 = $10,000. And that's just fuel costs.

The expected maintenance cost of my ICE is then another thousand or so more than the expected maintenance of my EV. Oil changes alone for synthetic oil at a 7,500mi interval for 100,000 is over $900. Add coolant flushes to that, timing chain tune up, probably a water pump replacement in there, and you're well over another $1,000 more than the EV which doesn't have a planned oil change or coolant flush until 150,000mi.

Nim is excellent, I use it daily, but you'll have to define what you mean by "scripting" language :) It is very much in the school of "build a binary, run that binary", which is ideal for my usages. There is of course, support for running scripts (".nims", Nimble tasks, and so on), and one can just tell the compiler to run your binary no worries from nimcache anyway, but I still use other actual scripting languages for some tasks. Mainly bash, to be perfectly honest.

That said, my view is biased, as most of what I do with it is for the "make a binary, then run the binary somewhere" school of usage patterns! Its quite possible it is a good fit for what you're after.

And I adore it as a language.
I'm currently waiting to get a Dell UltraSharp 27" 4K U2723QE delivered. It's
~$630 and has a USB 3.2 Gen2 Hub:

- HDMI 2.2

- DisplayPort 1.4 Input

- DisplayPort 1.4 Output

- USB-C Upstream (PD 90W + DP 1.4 Alt Mode)

- USB-C Upstream (KVM)

- USB-C Downstream

- 5x USB-A Downstream

- Audio line-out

- LAN (RJ-45)

As far as I can tell it has the best connectivity and specs of any mainstream consumer monitor under $1k. It really doesn't feel worth it to spend $250-400 on a dock given the price point of these monitors.

It also doesn't have a power brick, which makes cable management a bit easier too.

That is only natural, you learn programming by stating something you think might be true, then you get told you are wrong by an expert (ie the compiler returns an error), and then you adjust your statement and try again until it works. Almost everybody learns programming that way, it is the most efficient.

So when people make stupid remarks here, view them as their "hello world" programs.
All charging is done with DC internally. Level 1 and 2 charging uses a rectifier inside the car to convert AC to DC. Fast charging simply bypasses the rectifier.

The reason Level 2 charging is current-limited by your car -- even if you had a very high-current AC source available -- is that to take advantage of a high-current AC source your car would have to carry around a bigger, heavier rectifier. Which would decrease your EV's efficiency just by virtue of being big and heavy.
Also can maintain 100% SOC without causing excessive cell degradation. Solid chemistry for lower range vehicles.
Review from Brian Castner: Malcolm Gladwell’s “The Bomber Mafia”
Everybody will be charging at home/work. Other places you'll likely charge are conveniently located places between long distance destinations. Rest areas for example.

Costco might implement chargers at parking spaces as a convenience thing, but if they do it for free they'd have to do it for all parking spaces to prevent people fighting over spaces. I have no idea how such a large-scale charging system could be retrofitted into an existing car park. Seems more likely that if supermarkets etc did want to implement charging in their carparks, they'd install a few and charge a nominal amount.
If the student needs to use a Chromebook for school, that won't work. On my daughter's Chromebook, every app and website is tied to the account. It's not just a question of forwarding email.
can't you set up your own mastoden and then sort of "federate" with other mastodon instances you want to share your stuff with? I thought that was mostly the big advantage of it, outside of it not being twitter
Zero maintenance is not a realistic calculation. Maintenace on an EV might well be lower than on an ICE car, but it's not zero. And the battery pack will eventually need to be replaced (I guess if you're leasing though, that's not your problem).
I'd think that your average VPN block could just be rate limited if that's a big worry.

I agree, better to not take your eyes off the road, and better yet not take your hands off the wheel. Using auto climate controls makes it safer to drive instead of changing focus to adjust climate settings by hand. Its a good thing all those knobs and buttons were taken away to reduce the temptation to fiddle with them when driving instead of focusing on the wheel and the road.

I actually was more traumatized when I discovered that artists with the same name are filed under the same ‘profile’, and just have a textual explanation that they are actually different.

Anyway, personally I long since abandoned Last.fm in favor of more hands-on discovery.

> The real cost of oil and gas needs to be internalized by these companies.

Well, it's not going to be internalized by the companies, no matter what happens. It's going to be borne by consumers, either in taxes or in direct charges.

The difference is, if it's direct charges, then people feel more pressure to limit how much they use.
Technically it exists, I wonder if that’s what they used. It’s called BlaBlaCar
That's great for your situation - what about the rest of the people in your district? Did you reach out to other parents and make this problem known publicly, along with your solution, so that other parents could decide for themselves (individually or collectively) what their response should be?

Seems like this would be a slam dunk of a local news piece for some newspaper/website.
9c seems a bit cheap? For me in NC it's... 12-13c (IIRC). I think US average is closer to 13c. At 40% more, that 2.6c/mi is... ~3.6c/mi?

I get close to 40mpg, and pay a bit under $4/gal right now. Call my cost around... 9c/mi. Closing in on 3x difference. It's still not equal, but much better than a 5-7x difference.

That said, I've not switched to EV, and have no immediate plans to do so, but suspect an EV option may be on the cards as my next car in the next... 3 years or so. Will be interesting to see if there's much change in the price/performance numbers by then.
I see - I did figure you were implying some version of the sentiment that the backlash to the sins of our culture can make white people feel attacked for being white, and young people are especially susceptible to such identity-related negativity that arises from social politics bullshit. It was just hard to form a thought about it without details. Without getting into specifics, I certainly agree that it's a big and real problem. I know how you feel, if not specifically, than at least qualitatively. It makes my blood boil that some people try to erode sympathy for others based on their membership in some broad category, and anti-white and anti-male rhetoric are absolutely a significant part of that genre at present.

I think you are making some common missteps though. What I'm about to say sounds like whataboutism, but it's complementary: I have heard the words "I can't wait to kill liberals" (in reference to hypothetical civil violence after Jan 6th) come out of conservatives' mouths (for lack of a more specific word than "conservative"). This attitude is more commonly expressed not as an explicit desire for violence, but as simple hatred (and, relevantly, a mockery of suicide in specific), and, again sticking to personal experience only, has contributed to fear and depression in a couple young people I know. I try not to hold that against conservative ideology. More specifically, what I try not to do is make ominous, sarcastic, or broadly negative implications, nor lament the inconsistency of conservatives as a monolithic group as "conservative hypocrisy".

I know, analogies are bad - I am not saying that the problem you're describing is just a liberals vs conservatives thing, nor that there is an equivalent problem with the roles altered or reversed, nor that, even if there were, that we should always bring up one when talking about the other. What I am saying is that it's very tempting to look at extremely broad, immoral generalizations being made by somebody, and use them as an excuse to make our own opposite, lesser generalizations: "nobody gives a shit about young boys", "aggressive societal push ...", "there is a war on white people" (the last one not from you, obviously, but a related example).

I've found getting a multifunction device with wifi/network capability and the ability to directly upload to Dropbox or other cloud services is a _huge_ sanity saver. You can just completely throw away having to install or janitor drivers for document scanning and do it all on the device. Send things straight to your cloud file store of choice and the doc is right there on whatever computer you need. This is how scanning should work but absolutely never does when you have to touch drivers and such.

For printing if you use a modern version of Ubuntu or other distro it's pretty uneventful and network printers, especially those that support Apple print and advertise themselves on your network, all just work.

> Well to do consumers will keep buying Teslas (currently at a ~1.25M/year unit run rate, ramping to 2M units/year by EOY), and those cars will filter down to the used car market for price sensitive consumers over time

Not likely. For starters, Tesla considers a bunch of options "bought" by the original owner to be tied to the owner, not the car: supercharging and full self driving, I believe? When Tesla finds out the car has been sold, they deactivate those options. No other car company does this (yet. They're all licking their chops and insanely jealous at what he's is getting away with.)

Check out the out-of-warranty repair bills for cars like the Model X posted on youtube, twitter, reddit, etc. They are breathtakingly expensive. That's one thing when you're talking about an exotic sports car that only gets driven on nice days to car shows. It's another for a family SUV.

Tesla's parts and body panel availability is terrible and hideously expensive Price sensitive consumers aren't going to put up with a 6 month wait for a quarter panel replacement that ends up costing thousands of dollars.

Their gearbox reliability is terrible (or at least it was - on the Model S, it wasn't uncommon to bring your car in for routine service and find they had swapped out the entire motor drivetrain unit.) If that fails outside of warranty, you're likely looking at that totaling the car. The drivetrain units also have poor sealing around the speed sensor and that causes them to draw in water in anything from "big puddles" to "heavy rain", eventually destroying the motor drive electronics.

They don't have a dealer network to distribute parts to independent repair shops and owners.

They don't make parts available to wholesalers like Worldpac.

Unlike (I believe) every other car manufacturer in the world, they require a VIN number before their parts department will even start talking to you. Ferrari might pull this, too.

To the keyboard warriors mashing out angry responses: yes, I am aware that many dealer parts counters will ask you for a VIN number. That is done ONLY to assure you get the correct part. If you ask for a specific part number, you'll get it; the parts guy won't fight you beyond double-checking you're sure you know what you want, or looking into whether the part has been superseded.

Tesla does it to get you the correct part but also to check their database to see if the car has been deemed (by them, not an insurance company or government) to be no longer safe to drive on the road. That is something no other car company will do.

Again: Tesla parts department won't even talk to you if you have a VIN number they don't "like."

Every day car companies sell car parts for cars people own that have been totalled or modded such they can't be street legal. Ford even sells production non-street-legal race cars.

If you walk into an Chevy dealer they will happily sell you an entire engine and ECU, not caring whether it's going into a boat, a giant blender, a hovercraft (long as there are no eels), or a Yugo. They just care that your credit card goes through.
Cornel West has this depiction of pity vs compassion, which I think is a good model.

Pity is a spectator activity - you observe someone from the outside, you sort of judge them, make a token action, and then feel good about it. Pity is the agreeable option. You go into the party alone because it's something you can do. You stay with your friends on the dance floor because you don't want to leave them there.

The feel-good is not necessarily the right metric, though. It's more of a local maxima.

The adult mode would be compassion. Compassion is active participation. You are concerned enough to change someone's situation. Going to the party alone is an act of compassion. It's uncomfortable but you're doing it because you think the host should also have a good time. You're not going alone to avoid the bad feeling, you're going alone because you want the host to have a better evening.

There's also the compassionate option of leaving the dance floor with your friends. If you really think your friends are being babies, then the compassionate option might be to all leave together and enjoy it from a distance. But it sounded in this situation that they might actually be having fun in the crowd (it's hard to tell). So the compassionate option would be asking them if they're fine there and want to step out a bit. If they are comfortable, then excuse yourself in a manner that doesn't guilt them into following.

The quadrants make it seem a little black and white, but I think the axes are off. I would put one side to being passive and the other to being compassionate. Selfish might also be a misleading term, because in this case, it's being compassionate towards yourself, where you're experiencing a lot of discomfort but your friends aren't.
