@benhaube I had the same card and ended up going with the Nvidia card in the end. Mostly for gaming and the ray tracing that it offers. Ended up selling my 2070 super to a friend a few days after pulling it out of my machine. Am staying AMD for processor but hard to leave nvidia for gpu.
Enjoying the #galaxyfold4 and hoping to check out #beeper soon. This would make changing between #iphone and #android much easier. I hope the wait-list is not too long
Fresh from Japan.. wife grabbed me a new 40th anniversary #gshock watch.
Seems to be snowing again this afternoon. They are saying an inch an hour..
Being tempted by #SteamDeck Looks like it would be a great way to finish up some of the epic single player games I am working on slowly.
@kevingamin That is an absolute hassle. I expect it is a rare person that needs that kind of security turned on by default. Funny I left #android because they got the carriers to lock the bootloaders and now #apple is making owning your own device somewhat of a chore. I have always used both windows and Mac since #osx. Leaning more windows given my recent hassles with apple.
@kevingamin It sure makes things difficult for a small IT staff to deal with. I have to imagine this has been a good thing for both chrome and windows devices sales as managing a fleet of apple devices certainly takes more effort with each “feature”
Another day waiting on #apple to unlock computers for us. We have managed to get on e of the three taken care of and is in use again but still waiting on two more. Did try the business manager service and even the subscription based option but nothing gets us further. Find my seems the be the biggest issue.
@kevingamin That form requires you to send a picture of the receipt. I have my fingers crossed that we don’t have 3 paperweights. Another fun thing is none of these employees turned in the chargers.. I did see some links that talked about some way around this in certain situations. One video- https://youtu.be/C_JLkLqbpv4

@kevingamin Aftwr an unsuccessful trip to #apple we found a link to a form that hopefully gets #apple to unlock the activation and let us wipe the unit. This is certainly getting us to rethink employee computers.
