Lilbits: Vertical tabs for Chrome, Mac OS 10 for the Nintendo Wii, and a CyberDeck Pi

The CyberDeck Pi is a DIY handheld computer that looks like something designed for a world where smartphones never existed. It’s a chunky device that probably won’t fit in your pocket. But it’s also a full-fledged computer that can run desktop GNU/Linux software thanks to its Raspberry Pi brains. And it’s made using a combination of off-the-shelf components and 3D-printed parts.

The $599-$699 MacBook Neo has been a huge success for Apple... but that success presents a challenge. Apple is reportedly going to run out of the A18 Pro chips used in the laptop, and producing more could cut into the company's profit margins. https://www.culpium.com/p/apple-in-talks-to-boost-mac-neo-production #MacBookNeo #AppleA18Pro #Apple

MacBook Neo: Playing Minecraft on a 4K 32" display connected via USB-C. This is running perfectly fine in a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels while the game renders at 60fps, which feels perfectly playable. At the 4K resolution of 3840x2160, you only get around 35-40fps, which feels a bit sluggish.

For comparison: On an M4 Mac mini, you get 120fps playing at 4K and still around 90fps playing in scaled resolution of 5120x2880. Much better!

Okay, here's something I really DON'T like about the new MacBook Neo. It looks like it doesn't support any scaled resolutions using a 4K display. If you want your icons to be bigger, you'd have to use a smaller resolution. This is really unfortunate. 😟

My M4 Mac mini is giving me these scaled options, which are a lot nicer to look at.

Oh, well... it is what it is.

I ran a few 86Box virtual machines on the MacBook Neo to check out its emulation capabilities. Everything works quite nicely, from discovering my existing retro machines, running all kinds of DOS games, MT-32 music emulation, even the floppy drive sounds.

The emulation performance seems to be very respectable for an A18Pro iPhone chip. I went through several virtual systems, from a slow 386SX all the way up to a Pentium MMX 233MHz and even, just for testing, a Pentium II 300MHz. The performance meter never dipped below 100% and everything did work as expected. I believe, this is VERY good news for retro gaming on this budget MacBook.

Conclusion: I'm very happy!
