@Thoughtlesskyle but apple is happy to tout that the MBP 13 is the second most popular laptop model in the world (behind the Air) and it prioritizes more sales over anything else at this point — PolitiTweet.org

@Thoughtlesskyle it makes sense to call it M2, it uses a newer generation of cores. the bigger problem is they should have killed the MBP 13 or updated it to match the rest of the line. — PolitiTweet.org

@YevP Slack did have video calls but it was a separate feature from Huddles and worked much more like a trad phone call where you had to ring someone and they'd answer. it also sucked. Huddles is a much better implementation for this kind of thing, people just hop in/out — PolitiTweet.org

really tried to come up with a charitable reason why someone should buy this computer and i just can't. if you need "Pro" stuff, save up for the 14-inch, it's a lot more powerful. and the M2 Air stands to be much better for non-Pros. — PolitiTweet.org

here's @mcsquared96's review of the MacBook Pro 13 M2. performance is exactly in line with expectations and battery life is tremendous. but it's the same old MBP 13, so you should probably wait for the M2 Air: — PolitiTweet.org

honestly surprised it took this long for slack to add this to Huddles — PolitiTweet.org

@levelupJeffrey it'll have a small impact on battery life, but shouldn't be huge — PolitiTweet.org

@levelupJeffrey it's under lock screen settings -- "always show time and info" and then you can toggle off the "wake screen for notifications" — PolitiTweet.org

@levelupJeffrey the iPhone does not handle this well, but a lot of android phones just show a little icon on the screen when there's a new notification and it's persistent because of the always on screen. — PolitiTweet.org

@WirklichGesund i replaced the back panel with one that had an LED built into it. my phone had it, yours didn't. — PolitiTweet.org

@levelupJeffrey always on displays, which are available on every other Android phone at this point, kinda defeat the purpose these days — PolitiTweet.org

I asked her what made her put that and she said when music was playing in the house once an Ed Sheeran song came on and I was like "in this house we don't listen to Ed Sheeran" and skipped it — PolitiTweet.org
