    Ashley MLP Fangirl got a reaction from Wauthar in linus is the biggest hypocrite on earth   
    In the latest WAN show he says that spending $20K on a Mac Pro makes him extremely uncomfortable, and that he's trying to make as much content as possible in a short period of time so he can return it. 
     
    now tell me this, when linus makes a 10 gamers 1 cpu machine, does that make him uncomfortable? or a 6 editors 1 pc system? is it just because apple refuses to send you a machine that you feel uncomfortable?
     
    because it seems that way to me. you work with much much much more expensive stuff all the time, but only apple's system makes you feel uncomfortable while it costs less than the 2 systems i just listed, by a long shot. 
     
    please stop being a hypocrite and treat apple computers just like any other computer you cover, thank you.

    How are people so sensitive about things like this?
     
    Happy holiday? No! it's merry christmas.
    Santa hat? No! that's offensive.
     
    Here's a solution: Give them an option to add/remove the santa hat, don't outright remove it. Fucking babies.

    Ashley MLP Fangirl got a reaction from Ben17 in Can a Macbook Pro 16 game?   
    the latest MacBook Pro's are all quadcore or better unless you get a MacBook Air or MacBook. any 2019 MacBook Pro is at least quadcore. 
     
    the 13" MacBook Pro never had dedicated graphics and probably never will because of thermals.

    Ashley MLP Fangirl got a reaction from Zando_ in iPhone 6s Review in 2019 - 24 hours after purchase   
    introduction
    My old phone (iPhone 7) broke. The charge port stopped working, so I had to find something quick and I had a limited budget. I saw a cheap iPhone 6s and I went for it. It’s a 64gb Rose Gold model, which I bought for €130 yesterday. You can keep this in mind, I used the 7 for 1.5 years, so that is what I will be referring to when I draw comparisons between it and my 6s.
     
    Design
    As everyone knows the 6s and the 7 are basically identical in terms of design, and that’s not a bad thing. I like the bezels (makes it easy to hold the phone) and it’s plenty thin for me.
     
    Speed
    I don’t notice a difference in speed between the 6s and my old 7 personally. They feel very very similar. Opening apps etc feels exactly the same, probably because the 6s and 7 have very similar storage speed etc.
     
    Battery life
    It sucks. seriously. But my 7 did as well. My 7 was at 78% battery capacity and this phone is at 72%. Both battery’s are old and both suck by now. I can live with it because I always have a laptop and powerbank with me so I’m never without a charger, but like, don’t get one of these with an old battery and expect good battery life. When installing apps it loses a percent of battery every 10 seconds or so. If the battery has been replaced recently then it should be ok, but if it’s old don’t expect good battery life.
     
    Audio
    One big difference I noticed last night when watching YouTube in bed is that the earpiece speaker doesn’t work in conjunction with the main speaker to create stereo sound like the 7 does. That was a very noticeable downgrade. On the positive side though, I do get a headphone jack now which I have been missing on the 7, especially because I lost the lightning to headphone jack dongle for it.
     
    TouchID & home button
    Going back to the old home button that physically presses down was a very nice experience for me, I strongly prefer it over the 7’s solid state home button. I have noticed TouchID is less accurate on the 6s compared to the 7, but it was hit or miss on the 7 for me too.
     
    Conclusion
    I’m happy with my purchase, it is a good phone and it is one hell of a lot better than an iPhone that won’t charge lol, but on a serious note I’m probably gonna get the battery replaced and then use it until it breaks or apple stops supporting it.
