   @RustyCrab @PurpCat @bronze the CPU is supposedly pretty good at single thread performance
   but it's their own special snowflake ARM-whatever architecture so you can only ever use the software Tim Apple allows folks to compile for it with an xcode loicense
   the only thing apple's done right on their computers was the screen. had it not been for the retina macbooks, every laptop on earth would still have some piece of shit 1366x768 display.

     @skylar @PurpCat @RustyCrab @bronze for tastes, colors
     i run my laptop at fractional scaling,.so it renders at 3072x1536 and battery impact is nonexistent. the extract impCt would come from games or video watching, but even then for games i just remder at half res and for video, stuff keeps getting more efficient
     i SNEED sharper fonts and icons and ui

     @skylar @PurpCat @RustyCrab @bronze all laptops should have a minimum of 2560x1800 (1280x800 @ 2x scale) by now fucking hell

     @mischievoustomato @PurpCat @RustyCrab @bronze i would rather have 1600x1050 or 1920x1200. i like smol laptops, extra pixels just waste GPU power, and DPI scaling still doesn't play nice with all applications.
     bright enough to be usable in direct sunlight and viewable while wearing polarized sunglasses are nicer than extra pixels just to force folks to DPI scale

     @PurpCat @RustyCrab @bronze at least you could find 1600x900 and 1920x1080 on the larger business laptops
     all consumer shit was 1366x768

     @skylar @RustyCrab @bronze you mean business laptops that did the same thing for years?

     @mischievoustomato @RustyCrab @bronze @skylar the issue with games is when you render them low res and scale them up, it looks like you're playing games on an Xbox on a wal-mart TV.
