I’m talking about the context I know which is Barcelona companies

I understand it's free to set up the business but iCloud, AppleCare and Email/Calendar storage past the free (I suppose tiny) allowance are paid. As Apple loves, freemium with in-app purchases!
Agreed. I'd love to see what prices companies get for volume purchases. I'm the IT Manager in a small team and if the Neo and this was available last year when we set up MDM/Exchange/SharePoint I would have considered it. Specially on the hardware side, ROI/longevity on an Apple Silicon Macbook is times higher than any given Windows laptop.
Plus Pages, Numbers and Keynote are free on Macs, minus the new paid features. I think it's a no brainer for new businesses
A lot of new businesses are going the Notion/Google Drive route for docs, tables and knowledge, plus Canva for presentations and more visual work. It's not the majority, but the market is there.
Email, Calendar and company directory built in, custom domains in emails I think... It's more like a MS365 basic version. Which for most small teams is more than enough
599$ serviceable MacBooks, easy to use MDM, Cloud, Email and Calendar and flat-fee AppleCare all baked in?
New businesses under 50 employees are going to eat this up like there's no tomorrow.
I'd be scared if I was certain Redmond corporation who makes their money on 365 and Intune.
Since Melon Musk bought it, it works as good as a Starlink antenna in a nuclear shelter.
I thought this was about giant IKEA drawers before reading
What's UpDog?
Nice commit emojis
The landing page is so slow on scroll I feel the rest of the app is gonna be similar

Yes, Catalan modernism is relatively modern. For me it's one of the most beautiful 20th century architecture styles.
Sagrat Habitatge (Holy Accommodation in Catalan)
That's a whole other thread. The new Rent Control law has hurt (a lot) long-term rental for locals and long-term residents. All offers on Idealista and other portals are for contracts of up to 12 months, short term rentals under Spanish Law. Those are not rent-controlled contracts.
In my part of Eixample there aren't any long term units available.
Yes.
As someone from Barcelona, I really wanna see it finished completely. Those apartments had an expiration date the moment they were built in the 60s. Everyone who bought them at a discount knew that they were going to be torn down when the temple itself was finished.
I feel it's like those people that buy a house near an airport, they pay pennies for it, and then start lobbying the government for a change in air traffic routes.
It won't. Gaudí's plan was to build a big staircase in front of it creating a new public square next to the temple, replacing some apartment buildings currently being used. Gaudí's project won't be finished until then.
There's some pushback from the neighbors because finishing it all means bulldozing hundreds of apartments, although those apartments were bought at a discounted price decades ago because everyone knew they had an expiration date. And now that it's here, they want to keep their apartments even though they were told about the Sagrada Família from the start.
PS: Gaudí's name is Antoni, in Catalan. Not Antonio. He was a proud Catalan, he was arrested for talking in Catalan.
Am I the only one that thought it was a ranking on different Apple Inc.products?
This looks so good... I've been always using Node, Deno or .NET Core for backend infrastructure, but Avo makes me wanna learn Ruby and RoR and make the jump for client-related work. Congrats!
You can totally use pm2 with Deno! Just needs an extra flag.
pm2 start index.ts --interpreter="deno" --interpreter-args="run --allow-net --allow-write"
I’m 100% confident that a Multi-Platform Terminal can be built with C#, XAML and .NET 6. The dotNET ecosystem has multi-platform UI toolkits such as MAUI, Uno and Avalonia UI and Standard APIs to interact with all OS.
Yes I’m upset because even Netflix’s exec Reed Hastings said some time ago that account-sharing is “a good thing”. They are well within their rights to change their policy from looking the other way to actually prevent password-sharing, and I as the customer I’m well within my rights to cancel my subscription when the company changes a policy.
I have been a Netflix customer for 5+ years, and I've switched services to Disney+ for two reasons:
- Netflix with 4K and 4 streaming devices costs 17.99€ here ($19.50), while Disney+ only costs €8.99 with the same features.
- Netflix made and continues to make good content, but since major producers have been removing their content from Netflix and into their own services, Netflix here almost survives on old local shows and new in-house content. Feels like there's almost nothing new to watch. I have rewatched Gilmore Girls 4 times. Disney+ gets you Marvel, Disney, Pixar, FOX, NatGeo, StarWars, Star (lots of ABC content)
-Netflix decided to crackdown on password-sharing: my brother moved away some months ago and has been using our Netflix account, and we don't want him to pay Netflix for himself.
-There have been some rumors of ads on the platform to boost revenue. Hell to the no.
Also, the fact that this is a 15.6-inch display enables me to set zoom on VS Code and Firefox to 90%, still able to read everything but with more estate. I had an MBP Retina before and for the life of me I don't miss the extra pixels. I do miss the 16:10 aspect ratio, though.
I'm had a Retina 2015 MBP before, and with Windows/Gnome set to 100% Scaling I get the same screen real estate as an MBP with default settings. Screen has a high sRGB percentage and colors look vibrant and crisp.
To be honest, I would trade 2K for 144Hz again. It's so good.
AFAIK there are/were some 1440p versions available in the US. I'm from Europe so I didn't see them.
Asus TUF Dash Gaming 15 user here: I cannot recommend it enough.
- Intel i7 H series processor (best mobile Intel chips)
- Upgradeable RAM (currently at 24GB) - Intel Wifi 6
- Nvidia RTX 3060
- FullHD Screen with 144Hz
- Comfortable keyboard with backlight
- Two M.2 slots, laptop came with 500GB but added an extra 2TB.
- Good connecticity: HDMI, Ethernet, 3 full-size USBA 3.1 ports, 1 Thunderbolt port.
- Laptop runs on a 200W brick with a barrel connector, but on the go I plug it to a USBC 100W charger, works flawlessly.
- Good build quality: back of screen is aluminum, laptop itself is made with plastic with no deck flex or other problems.
- Only deal-breaker, not for me though, is the lack of webcam. I have a small USB one that attaches to the screen when needed.
Battery life is around 9h for me doing Node.js backend development with VSCode, Firefox with +40tabs, PostgreSQL and Docker running the server running locally. It lasts longer with the screen set to 60Hz and tinkering with the power settings to disable the Nvidia card when only doing CPU-intensive jobs.
Best of all: I only paid €999 ($1,081 taxes included) for it on Amazon Spain. Plus the SSD and extra RAM.
Can't wait for my search results to be filled by high SEO ranking pages with no actual solutions to my questions! Oh, wait... That's how it already is.
Jokes aside, more often than not I catch myself adding "reddit" "hackernews" "stackoverflow" to my queries because the results would be otherwise filled with marketing, SEO-engineered websites that only want to sell you some crappy software or get you to download some malware-infested files. But hey, they make Google happy, so they must be good.
