@naughtfollowers @pierce @reckless @alexhcranz @mslopatto hey there, thanks for the feedback. we’ve listened to the video on multiple devices, including headphones and speakers, and with multiple listeners and aren’t able to hear a problem with the audio. can you describe what you’re using to listen and what you’re hearing? — PolitiTweet.org

those running the watchOS 9 beta — do the hourly chimes work when you’re in a focus mode? read somewhere that they do, but it’s not working for me (didn’t work in watchOS 8 either) — PolitiTweet.org

it’s truly baffling that i can’t block a particular artist from ever showing up in a personalized playlist generated by apple music — PolitiTweet.org

@CastIrony @drbarnard i actually think the framework of a different model at each $500 increment makes sense! it’s the existence of the MBP 13 M2 and a kinda lousy M2 Air base model that is giving everyone agita — PolitiTweet.org

how do any of these ideas get funded — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@zainpunjwani i’d put the money towards the storage upgrade if you have to choose between one or the other (256GB is also just kinda cramped, beyond the speed issues) — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@ryanmfrancis maybe/probably not, depending on how many tabs she uses. i was able to saturate the 8GB RAM and force it to swap to the SSD with my review unit with my daily workload. but that unit had 512GB storage which runs twice as fast so it didn’t present an issue. — PolitiTweet.org

@PatriiickM apple sells a $1500 stock config of the M2 Air likely for this reason. it’s what’s in apple stores and other retailers. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@DatGeekDad my biggest gripe with the M2 Air is just how expensive it is now. M1 Air is still an excellent computer and available under $1k quite often! — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@ryanmfrancis no because you’ll get slower storage. check out vergecast tomorrow for more, but if you are looking at the $1200 M2 and aren’t able to go higher, just buy the M1 and save even more money. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

i don’t think the 13-inch MacBook Pro or the base model M2 Air should exist. so when you ignore those as you should, Apple’s laptop line up clears up a bit: $1000: M1 Air $1500: M2 Air $2000: MBP 14 $2500: MBP 16 and then you configure w/in those tiers per prefs/needs — PolitiTweet.org

@_benmattison_ cheers, i’ll have to look into it. would be bummer to give up the extra vertical real estate the new screen offers, kinda just wish Apple made the top bezel a little thicker and stuck the camera in there. — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@Thealex09 screen is nicer, but no, don’t upgrade from the M1 yet. unless you want to splurge on a 14” Pro — PolitiTweet.org
