If Apple didn’t try to make 400% markup on their underpowered trash, it would probably just cost what it costs now. Except the child slave labor part would go away.
Yeah, I’m in the process of shifting all of my workflows over to Linux/Android from all-Apple, but my Macs are a huge sticking point. My main computer is an M2 Macbook Air, which is ridiculously quick. I’m basically just waiting for Asahi to gain display port over USB, at which point I’ll ditch macOS. But until then…
My almost five year old piece of under powered apple trash cost me less than 45 US cents a day, still has regular OS updates and works between eight to ten hours most days running my entire life. I might even splurge out and buy a new one if they ever release an overpowered non trash handset…

That’s the neat part, the republicans are trying to repeal child labor laws.
I hate to say it, but it’s actually quite powerful trash that they produce.

8GB of RAM on a laptop today is f-ing ridiculous.
That’s how much more efficient MacOS and the M series silicon is.
Way more than you need for Facebook and pornhub. 8GB is fine for a low spec laptop.
