  • Sorry but you're full of crap. The first TB5 laptop was released this year and I'm not sure there are more than a handful of models.

    You're welcome to prove me wrong though.

  • It's not about it being practical. It's about if it's actually doable or not and how well it would work. Having the native ports will always be better that using a hub/dock.

  • Supported display modes included up to 4k@120, 2x4k@60, or 5k@60

    Right, for a single device.

    What combination of resolution, frame rate, and color depth are you envisioning that having a dock handle a gigabit Ethernet connection, analog audio would require scaling down the display resolution through the same port?

    Dual 4k120 would already saturate the bandwith. Regarding networking, gigabit is pretty slow for LAN depending on your workload. If you were to require 10gbit, you'd be SOL.

    By 2021, the MacBook Pros were supporting TB4, and the spec sheets on third party docking stations were supporting 8k resolutions, even if Macs themselves only supported 6k, or up to 4x4k.

    Did you read the specs in your link? Even with that TB4 dock you wouldn't be able to do dual 4k120.

    I really don't get trying to justify manufacturers forcing you to buy an additional device to get the same ports they could provide natively without using a hub/dock. It's a pretty submissive attitude.

  • Please, list the devices that you know have tb5.

    Also, that's the total bandwidth in a best case scenario. You're not factoring in that you'll need to share that with all of the devices in a hub. That's without mentioning that you need the hub (which also has a cost).

  • Unless you want a desk setup. I have 2 monitors, kb, mouse, external dac, usb extension for thumbdrives, ethernet, usb soundcard for my mic and a kvm. That's dp, hdmi, 6 usb-a, ethernet and I still sometimes plug-in 1-3 devices to charge them.

  • You can only do that because your monitors are not high resolution and high refresh rate. The data cap for usb-c is not that high.

  • It is pretty flexible. But ethernet, displayport, 3.5mm, etc require an adapter. Plus, usb-c's bandwidth is typically 40gbps max, whereas DisplayPort is 80gbps, for example. Not to mention that the number of ports is way lower than it used to be.

  • How is this a meme?

  • It's been around for a while and it's already pretty popular. So I'm nlt sure what you're talking about.

  • The Os, Us and the way indians speak (meaning, their choice of words and cadence) is usually pretty distinct as well.

  • That would've generated fewer clicks. Sensationalism is always more profitable.

  • Not really, no. But it's ok. You do you.

  • It's just a tool. Inventing a hammer doesn't make you a carpenter, the same way that developing an LLM doesn't make you a physicist or chemist.

  • You can provide the updates via f-froid and github. So that's a non-issue.

  • Why would google be responsible for this?

  • The technology itself is still not something related to those fields so what's your point?

  • You can't "dmca" the fork that was created while it was still open source. They could only prevent it from getting future updates (directly from them).

  • You should watch more horror films.
