You use GitHub because you don’t know better

I use GitHub because I wanna poison AI with shitty code

We are not the same

They asked copilot to slop an update for them and it tried to kill itself. Tragic Marvelous, really.

FTFY

That’s what I was thinking, so that’s why I made the post in first place. But I got a great deal as I stated here, and I don’t think there will be a huge difference between the M4 and M5, specially in a MBA.

Nothing comes close to the battery life, performance, and formfactor of the MBA. A ThinkPad X1 Carbon might get close, but Linux always struggles with brand new devices. It looks like a base model starts at $1700 (USD) and it’s going to perform worse and get worse battery life

I made up my mind and I went to the Apple Store just to check if they still had 15” MBA.

It turned out that they did and were giving them away with a wholesale discount (sorry I’m not sure if that’s the term) plus the student discount I got it from 1519€ to 1219€. I think it was a great deal.

I’m sure any M4 you bought new would now come with Tahoe

Yeah, that’s true, but unlike iOS, in macOS you can downgrade a Mac with another as long as the target Mac supports the OS.

I don’t know about that. I’d like to avoid Tahoe at the moment, so, if apple pulls out an M5 MBA, I won’t be able to get my hands on a brand new M4 MBA with student discount

I’d expect there to be workarounds in Tahoe and future os rollouts.

Yeah, that’ll probably be the case, I’m quite used to having third-party software to add things I need that apple hasn’t added.

Although, I’ll probably miss some features like the old System Preferences or the LaunchPad.
