Get as much memory as you can. I think memory is more important than the processor.
Memory is absolutely more important. Upgrade the RAM at build-to-order time and the Mac will run well for 7 or 8 years until they stop upgrading macOS on that model.
If the reality is that China is producing more cars than they can sell, that does not lead to a crash. It leads to them exporting more cars. EV's are a growing market in the world that will eventually have a demand for all that production capacity.
You are assuming these cars are exportable. Things designed for the domestic market can have safety, IP infringement, and other problems if one tries to export them.
You will find these cars at Chinese run worksites around the globe. But that'll just be gov't policy, not some sort of actual demand at these sites.
In China they have an oversupply of vehicles In the Us we have more demand than supply.
No, the US does not have unmet demand. US production slowed due to low demand.
The main US market isn't fully convinced to go EV. The early adopter segment is happy, but that's a very different group of people than the main market. Totally different circumstances, different needs, different concerns,
Should be easy to solve these problems.
Actually transitioning from the early adopter market to the main market is notoriously difficult. A well known and well discussed topic.
It wonâ(TM)t take long for these cars to be exported.
Assuming they are exportable. Things designed for the domestic market can have safety, IP infringement, and other problems if one tries to export them.
Of course it will be stunted by RAM limitations and storage limitations and screen resolution. It will be a miracle if it handles multiple tabs of browsing in a non gimped browser (non stripped down safari). Which is the single task that a Chromebook does well.
I picked up a 2020 MacBook Air M1, 8 GB RAM, 128 GB storage for testing purposes. It is about as low-end as you can get for Apple Silicon-based Macs. I am completely surprised as to how functional and usable it is despite the RAM and storage. This "new" Mac will be a previous-generation MacBook Air, likely called a MacBook SE. In other words, the same pattern we saw with the iPhone SE and Apple Watch SE.
It'll work well for the intended audience. Its not for power users or developers.
Non-Mac users just have no idea how efficient macOS is in dealing with low-RAM situations. Even on x86-based Macs. And Apple Silicon is born to memory-swap!
This 68K-based Mac user, PowerPC-based Mac user, and Intel-based Mac user was surprised too?
Right. The statues were never stolen. That's why I'm confused about how these statues would be repatriated. I'm using China just because it's somewhere that's not Afghanistan that might have a cultural claim.
The reference was to illustrate what some locals do with their cultural inheritance. That repatriation being a good thing depends entirely upon who you are repatriating to. After learning of those statues, would you be OK with repatriating non-Islamic cultural treasures to ISIS, Daesh, Taliban, etc?
Yeah, it would have been much better you barbarians had not supported the taliban fathers in the 1980s.
Nope. The mistake was to nation build in a tribal state. Post WW2 Europe, sure. Iran, Afghanistan no.
The post-9/11 invasion. No problem. Kill them, remove them from power, then leave with the warning don't make us come back and do this again.
It would have been great if your country did not destroy Iraq with a dumb lie used as an excuse
Again, your ignorance is showing. Saddam worked to hide the fact he had no WMD. He wanted the question to be an unknown to scare off Iran. This shit aint gonna fly post 9/11. Either prove you are clean or we are coming in to see for ourselves. The mistake was, again, to stay around and nation build.
a destruction that directly lead to the appearance of ISIS/DAESH.
Wrong again, the ISSI/Daesh mindset is a recurring problem. They have, century after century, been put down by the local muslims who get fed up with their shit. The problem was allowing mass migration. The allowed the locals to flee rather than stay and fight and end the problem, as they have century, after century in the past.
It would have been great if your military did not arm the "rebels" in Syria that eventually blew up those statues.
The US did not arm the Islamic State. The US fought them.
Alas... The insatiable thirst for cheap oil
We took no oil. We defended allies. We took down a dictator who violated the peace agreement he had with the US from the previous war. We took town the after the fact accomplices of 9/11.
Given what we saw from the looting of Baghdad,
Bagdhad was looted by locals. Thank God some of their culture survived in the safe hands of Britain and France.
Ok, but in this case, the statues would be repatriated to China from Afghanistan.
The Buddhist statues were native to Afghanistan not China. And Buddha was from Nepal not China. Buddhism spread to many areas including Afghanistan.
You're aware that ISIS didn't make that art right? How would it be repatriation?
Repatriation may put art in the hands of ISIS or likeminded individuals. Some of the looted art is safer where it is.
Sorry, politically incorrect, but realistic at times.
I really want a slick produced show where an international team of non-European thieves engages in operations to repatriate stolen relics.
Why? So Isis/Dash/Taliban can destroy the pre-Islamic art?
"Built in the 6th century, the Buddhas of Bamiyan were two monumental size statues, standing at 115 and 174 feet tall, carved into the sandstone cliffs of the Bamiyan valley in central Afghanistan. These statues best exemplified the Gandharan Buddhist art school, as well as the greater cultural landscape of Buddhism and its influences during the 1st to 13th centuries. In 2001, the statues were destroyed by the Taliban over the course of 25 days. Although Islam became the dominant religion in the region, these Buddhist monuments were still integral to Afghan history and were a source of national pride, and their destruction has been seen as a great loss to many Afghan people. In 2003, the Bamiyan Valley was declared a World Heritage Site; however, the damage that has already been done to the site is irreversible. Though none of the bodies of the Buddhas remain, the empty space that they once occupied remains, cavernous fixtures carved into the mountainside."

It's the exact same code as my luggage!
I think that's your bank PIN. Your luggage would be 1 2 3, or the TSA compatible key from Ali Baba.
I'm guessing the Security Supervisor's personal banking password was 'bank'?
"Banque". Note they do mix lower and upper.
What sort of developers?
Xcode based. macOS, iOS, etc targets. Professional stuff.
All the recent C++17 code I've written compiles and runs in reasonable time on a 2009 laptop with the latest version of slackware installed.
Apple offers a complete set of command line tools. You just don't have the IDE. Add VS Code for Mac and school projects will not be a problem. Again, pleasantly surprised with a 2020 M1 8/128.
