The $700 wheels aren't *really* intended as a product to be purchased. Don't get me wrong - they sell them and you CAN purchase them, but the wheels exist to psychologically manipulate buyers of a Mac Pro. The default configuration includes the wheels. You can then choose to remove them and "save" $700, so you become convinced that you've gotten a spectacular deal. It's a tactic as old as retail itself.

"they are huge, they're ugly, and they're awful"..... UK plug's/socket's are simply the best: Safer with strong chunky prongs that are shielded where they'd become live, ground on top because gravity, on/off switch to isolate supply and arcing/sparking, fused which is never a bad thing although not required in the US. And they supply higher wattage at the socket. The badly placed socket shown was a poor example to make a point, I'm sure the same could happen anywhere. We do suffer with more bulk, true, and sadly many just stick a UK plug onto their power adapters and call it a day or do it for aesthetic like Apple rather than designing it for the market. But if you want a safe, robust, capable plug/socket to deal with deadly electricity then nothing beats it.

Seriously. As a brit living in USA, US plugs are atrocious. If you buy a 7 socket power strip for example, you can expect to only be able to use 4-5 of those sockets as many of your devices will just block the other ports with their size.

"they are huge, they're ugly, and they're awful" - The UK plugs are the only ones I know of that include a fuse INSIDE the plug that protects everything you plug on the device/power-strip level. Without those you would need to rely on circuit breakers to detect shorts which rarely happens before something actually catches fire. I'm not from UK, but their plugs ARE better. Imagine a power strip can handle at max 2kW before catching fire. The embedded fuse would prevent it from burning, but a 15A circuit breaker, which is 3.4kW would not.

@aimmlegate Месяц назад

its actually funny to hear complainse about UK plug from person who live in country with THE WORST PLUG DESING IN THE WORLD.

@cjmillsnun Месяц назад

The fuse is needed because of the arse about face way we wire our socket circuits, which means you could pull 32A through one plug if the device has a fault. Also the fuse is not to protect the device itself. It's to protect the flex from the plug to the device. But you're right, our plugs and sockets, whilst big are the safest in the world. Except in one situation. On the floor they are always pins up and stepping on one hurts more than stepping on lego bricks.

@salmiakki5638 Месяц назад

Don't really appreciate the British plug that much But I second the argument that US citizens should be the last to have a say on the topic

@lumer2b Месяц назад

The fuse is needed because UK wiring system: a single ring of copper is used to connect all outlets in the house, so it allows very high current in faults which is very dangerous so the appliances must protect the system. In every other country they use radial circuits which have their own protection in the electric panel itself, so the fuses in the appliances are not required.

I have a 16” 2021 MacBook Pro and needed a dvd player for some old media I have, and while reading/playing back a dvd works perfectly fine, I got a very similar error when trying to burn a disc. The stupid thing is that on Apple’s website it explicitly says (at the time of writing this) it is compatible with any Mac made since 2008 as long as you have a USB-C to USB-A adapter, including for burning discs, and mentions nothing about compatibility problems on modern Macs.

So funny enough, I was a major user of USB on iPad going back to the iPad 4 which I had in school. At my family house, we had suck terrible wifi that everything had to be wired by ethernet for decent use. This included my iPad. I used a iPad 4, with the USB 2.0 connector to a powered USB hub, to a USB-to-Ethernet adapter for years. I continued to use this setup into my iPad Air 2 when my 4 got too slow, and then a major upgrade to 3.0 with my original iPad Pro 12.9 inch. iPads were necessary at my highschool and I kept using my iPad as my daily driver for notes, zoom/teams meetings, and much more through University. I only stopped using most of those when I got the first gen 2018 USB-C iPad pro 12.9in which I still rock today. My first job in highschool and into college was working IT for schools and we managed fleets of iPads and the USB connection was so useful for so many things. It's crazy to me to look back at how limited iOS for the ipad used to be and yet we got as much as we could out of those machines.

I like the cleaner look of using the Apple extension cables, which are also more stable inside 3 pin sockets, and really really stable inside international sockets using the native cables. I also prefer this over using a generic extension cable. I did look at other non-Apple brand chargers, but nearly all took up to much space on the wall and/or power strip.

I worked at an Apple Store for 8 years until recently and the lightning to usb 3.0 adapter is still in wide use at stores because it supports wired data transfer between lightning iPhones and allows power in for charging during the process. It also allows the phone to work over a wired network provided you use a usb-a to Ethernet adapter and plug into power. I even used it with the old Apple wired keyboards which used to allow you to unlock and interact with an iPhone if the touch screen stopped responding but since iOS started locking out the usb connections if the passcode hasn’t been entered within a certain timeframe that hasn’t really been available.

Something I really appreciate about Apple is that they sell some of this old stuff still. As someone who collects iPods from time to time being able to just go out and buy a first party genuine Apple 30-pin cable is wonderful. Also while EarPods don’t sound as good as some other earbuds at their price point I will argue that they are quite practical. They don’t insert into your ear canal so if you are a person who has difficulty with in-ear buds you’re good. This also means you can easily put them in and take them out of your ears if you are in an environment that requires you to do so often. They don’t bleed sound in any way close to the version of the Apple earbuds they replaced. They also still sound pretty good for what they are. For phone calls, podcasts, audiobooks, and non-critical listening they sound pretty good. Especially for phone calls that microphone is absolutely superior to any wireless alternative.

@a1white Месяц назад

Really odd how he was critiquing them by showing how damn good the Mic quality is (mainly because the are not Bluetooth) and how they sound decent (that coming from a self professed audiophile) but then said Apple shouldn't be selling them becuase you can get cheap Chinese ones instead (that are bluetooth anyway, so the Mic won't be as good).

On the 35 w adapter, Apple also sells the extender kit (a lot of people put them on their MacBook chargers).

The earpods with the 3.5mm jack are still very popular in some countries. I know a lot of folks that keep buying them for use with their laptop. I think long-time Apple fans have gotten used to the sound profile on Apple buds and want to keep using something they know, rather than trying another pair that they don't know. Others keep a pair around to have a wired option/ headphones that don't need to charge. In South Africa, we have loadshedding. That basically means that the power goes off for between 2 to 4 hours, sometimes 2 times a day. If you forgot to charge your AirPods, Galaxy Buds, etc, a wired backup is useful.

People say the european adapter is better because it's safer due to the fuse and the covering over the prongs. The cover on the prongs has already been done on the american one and just needs to be made standard.
