iPad Pro with M4 chip boasts impressive performance jump compared to just-released M3 MacBook Air
  • Perhaps with a more robust OS, such as Linux or macOS the battery and thermals would just not suffice?

    I mean, an iPad is basically a larger phone, which I think can get hot enough if pushing it to its limit

    Also I don't think the RAM would be enough for intensive tasks, the device as it is could be pretty good for gaming though, if only the title list wouldn't be a shit for the most part.

    But at the same time, a MacBook Air doesn't seem much bigger compared to the biggest iPad available.

  • Apple Will Revamp Siri to Catch Up to Its Chatbot Competitors [using generative AI]
  • This makes sense, now that I think about it, there used to be a tweak that mimics Siri for devices that didn't support it, it was called Sara lol.

    And yeah Siri was better but still Sara shipped some interesting ideas like keyboard support, like any ideas that Apple took from old tweaks.

  • What's your favourite era for video games?
  • I think the handheld era is my favorite, it basically ended with the 3DS, but it is the DS which I really can't put down, I am playing for the first time Chrono Trigger on it, and it is my Jump Ultimate Stars machine (Wimmfi), also have some other bangers as well, but I'll bore you if I citate them all.

    But hey, don't get me wrong, the current handheld era is good too, we have the Switch, The Steam Deck and a plethora of good quality Chinese handhelds.

  • Streaming services are now getting out of hand
  • Stremio/Kodi + a debrid service or your HDDs carefully crafted with content though Arr services and with Plex/Jellyfin, or both.

    That setup will be infinitely better than any streaming service.

    Interesting that they ranked Phantom Hourglass as number 1, nowadays it is considered one of the worst Zelda games... And I don't agree at all.

    Does anyone else also "hoard" Stremio add-ons?

    Long time Kodi and Plex user, it was a matter of time that I started messing around with this.

    PSA you can use Scaled and Controversial sort types in Sync for Lemmy even if it hasn't been integrated in the app if you set them as your default sort type in the web page settings.

    Hi, as soon as I noticed this was a thing I headed to this community to let anyone else know that you can use the newest sort types in the Sync for Lemmy app with that nice workaround... But I just found a lot of "Sink and Sync threads" here that I actually thought the sort bugged my app/feed lol, what a good timing.

    Anyway I hope this is useful for you guys until the new update arrives... Soon ^TM

    It kinda sucks that my favorite format, handheld is so low compared with the other hardware (yeah, I'm not considering mobile as handheld lol).

    Is Lemm.ee a bit slow for you guys?

    I have been noticing it taking longer loads times since today...

    Tested using Sync for Lemmy mostly, but also happened with Voyager.

    Is anyone experiencing this high background usage with Sync?

    3 hours in the background seems a lot to me.

    I started the app clean and configured it from the start (it was a pain in the ass because I migrated my settings from Sync for Reddit lol) and the issue still remains, having this huge background usage prevents my phone from going to deep sleep properly which lends to a bigger battery drain.

    EDIT: BTW the issue is gone when I set the app to restricted battery mode instead of optimized... But I'd rather keep it in optimized as it closes less often in the background, that is how I had it with Sync for Reddit, which on average its active background was several minutes only.

    EDIT 2:

    This is the process that Battery Guru/BBS says shows

    Remember guys, this is why we don't pay for the apps.

    This is the app called Franco Kernel Manager, one of the best kernel managers that are out there... Even when it was outdated (which I think that's the cause it got booted from the PlayStore?).

    I used it to check the process of my phone and monitor the active and idle drain mostly, I paid for it a long time ago, but now it just fails to check the licence and it doesn't let me use it fully... I think there must be a cracked APK over there...

    EDIT:

    Fortunately the app is back in the store and hopefully that update version comes soon enough!

    Are there any people who hates music?

    I'm not saying particular genres, we all have our less desired musical genres, I mean music in general.

    When I was a child I was very confident to say that I hated music, all kinds, and my cousin used to say that was not possible.

    Turns out he was right, and I only hated the teenage music my sister from the 90s used to listen to.

    Secretly I enjoyed soundtracks and OSTs from several media, such as animes (digimon openings and battle themes for example) and some TV shows or even videogames.

    Then my taste "evolved" and pretty much stayed at rock, heavy metal and alike.

    So that little memory lane inspired me to ask about this.
