In a relatively small US city, 600/600 mbps fiber and I actually get it 24/7. I could get 1200, 2400 or even 5000 but I don’t see any point. Heck I can get 700/35 on my iPhone (overnight).

Honestly, I probably wouldn’t use the max to the full potential. Look at some bg3 performance charts for the m3 family to see how much it might matter. For rendering, they will both be great, but it may just take a bit longer on the pro vs the max.

I don’t believe heat to be a significant issue with the 14 inch device. I am a fan of the smaller form factor and were I to buy one today, I would select the m3 max chip with the 14 inch form factor, but I am selecting it for the gpu cores. If you don’t plan on needing those, the m3 pro is a good chip.

It means that even though Mullvad already doesn’t log anything about their users activities, there is no persistent storage on the servers, so as soon as it is powered off or raided by The Agencies, there is absolutely nothing to retrieve from it.

From what I understand, yes. This vulnerability is to gain information about another user using the same computer (at the same time?). This is why I have disabled the performance-impacting spectre/meltdown mitigations on my home Windows PCs.

The Mac didn’t get the game yet. It’s still a six-month old pre-release version.

Except it’s not available on Mac on day one. Larian hasn’t even announced when it will be aside from “at a later date.”

Update: Apparently, the Steam Discussions page has a post that lists it as September 5.
