If my budget is $2000 and prefer 16” screen, is a M2 a no brainer over a 14” M3? (alien.top)
 

My eyes are getting old and the 14” isn’t cutting it. I am still on my return window and a 16” M2 just dropped in price near me for $1999.

Anything I am missing before pulling the trigger? Will be mainly used for photo editing (again, the reason why I prefer 16”).

Thanks!

Best Buy writing model number on all MacBook Pro boxes? (alien.top)
 

Went I pick up a 14” M3 MacBook pro at my local Best Buy and prior to paying, I noticed this big model number wiring on the side of the box with a Sharpie. Associate said they do it to all of them for easy identification. Since MacBook Pros are not shrink wrapped, let’s just say I came home empty handed.

Anyone else seem this before?

Help me choose a MacBook for photo editing. (alien.top)
 

I am a hobbyist photographer and mostly use Lightroom and some light video editing. I would consider the Air but not sure if I will regret it later so heavily considering a MacBook Pro but anything over 8GB of memory shoots the price by $200 and always blows my budget of $1500.

What should I get?

Nextcloud alternative with iOS app for auto photo upload? in c/main@selfhosted.forum
[–] chench0@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don’t have any issues with the upload function itself, it’s mainly how every update nearly breaks something. Plus I am using external storage (NAS) instead of a local drive.

Nextcloud alternative with iOS app for auto photo upload? (alien.top)
 

I am using Nextcloud and along with the iOS app, I can automatically upload my iPhone photos as I enter my WiFi but boy, is Nextcloud finicky.

Is there a reliable alternative with an iOS app?
