@marcan@social.treehouse.systems @adiz@outerkosm.us Also, Apple will be up to like M5 by then. I have a hard time seeing them lose to Intel, who have to carry all their fun legacy cruft, on power efficiency.

@nyancient@ninjagroup.moe That's true, but the world runs on x86. For better or for worse, Apple's SoCs aren't going to be widely adopted across industries as Apple is highly proprietary and completely locks their hardware and software down. ARM/RISC might be the future, but it won't be Apple's implementation therein that dominates the global market. @marcan@social.treehouse.systems

@adiz@outerkosm.us @marcan@social.treehouse.systems Considering that Apple's CPUs are compatible with the aarch64 ABI, it doesn't really matter which ARM vendor gets the larger part of the cake. Apple, and especially Linux on Apple silicon, benefits from increased ARM adoption regardless.

@nyancient@ninjagroup.moe I completely agree with that (re ARM). @marcan@social.treehouse.systems

@adiz@outerkosm.us @marcan@social.treehouse.systems Of course, if Intel were to just get their shit together wrt power efficiency that's also a perfectly fine outcome of Apple's foray into laptop CPUs as far as I'm concerned. I don't have strong feelings about CPU architectures as long as I get decent performance and battery life out of my laptop.

@nyancient@ninjagroup.moe Same. But there's never going to be a non-Apple machine running Apple architecture. @marcan@social.treehouse.systems
