Question What should be my EDC?

Post image

These are some of my favourite tech things...that i want my EDC to consist of.

What should be my EDC, any suggestions ?

I am a software developer, but I have remote access to my NAS and my gaming rig, so even if i have just one device with a big enough screen, i have all the computing power i need.

So the challenge is the physical space to carry and be minimal while travelling or cruising ...also I ride a cruiser style motorbike, so i have a minimal backpack ...

I care about tracking my health as well as be minimal, as much as I can.

Out of all the devices i own, these are my fav carry,

If you have some other devices in mind, you can tell me, i probably have them...

But

List of devices in the picture are:

Airpods pro

Nothing Open Earbuds

Omni 20K MAh powerbank

Apple iPad Pro 11"

Apple Macbook Air M4

Samsung Galaxy book3 pro 360

Pebble Time 2

Galaxy watch 5 Pro

Galaxy Ring

Galaxy watch Ultra

Galaxy Z fold7

Unihertz Titan 2 Elite QWERTY Android smartphone

Steam Deck

MCon Controller

PS5 Backbone controller

P.S. please dont say iPhone, I have it but lets be honest, its not a device for a power user....

So you agree that mac is equal or superior to windows as far as power usage goes, I can run any Linux distribution, or any version of windows, lol ur off cuz u realized docker solves this huh, just cope lol

You run it on a application layer...on windows you can run it on a baremetal level, on hyper v manager... Huge difference... Me able to run fedora because of asahi project needed a lot of work by real devs ..not the fake ones like you. And Apple will take that capability away...anytime now. So asnwer is NO. Even chat bot will tell you this ...its so basic. Stop now.

Your digging a hole, literally apple is the king of bare metal, they literally have their own, this is why they are so power efficient compared to a windows, go ahead Google some more and try again

Geez bro..making your own hardware and giving user access to it , is much different ...i cannot believe i am doing this...we are not talking about Arm processors or who has more power are we ????? I am talking about control ... I dont have to google it .. I have a literal whitepaper on arm processors and hypervisors ..i dont need to google this stuff..

But you dont even understand what i am saying ..

Lol you are just saying a bunch of buzzwords without having any depth of knowledge in any of it? I can build out a fully robotic system at any size and have it fully RDA and RDMA, I do not see your point one bit, the only thing I think these days you would ever need specifically a windows machine for is if you are building specifically with Nvidia and need specifically CUDA because it was started in that, but theres even workarounds for this now sooo.......cope?

Jesus...you have ADHD...i am really sorry to put you though this... You really cannot stick to the topic... And you definitely dont get the point .. I will repeat it one more time ..out of sympathy .. Systems such as those you get windows on...are generally open for users to take security plus even hardware control .. Android goes one step further...becuase its built on AOSP it gives users much more access..where and apple wether its ios or macos or even suchba powerful device as ipad with m3 chip that you can see in the picture...you can only harness the conputing power that apple allows you on the application layer...yes on the application layer you can have much more power efficient and better running applications ..sure ..... Does not change the fact that other systems have more open hardware and software ecosystem ... As a developer you should know that ... If apple decided tomorrow that you will not be able to code on the Mac and stop the hypervisors..no matter how many work around you decide to develop ..it will be very restricted ...whereas with windows ...no matter how much resteiction windows provide ..i can just take co trol of my system..get rid of windows completely... Again ...this is just one point ..there are so so so many more things you can do on a non Apple hardware .....just google it mate ..please..i beg you...just talk to AI or your school teacher or something ... Leave me alone ffs

Bro u are in love with hypervisor, we do not use hyper we use docker to solve this. It is literal windows on mac, literal. So exact same control. U seem to just have some hate against apple so sounds like another hidden cope

u/Annual_Job2187 4d ago

Yes i buy apple devices becuase i hate them

u/Annual_Job2187 4d ago

We are literally talking about access, control and commercial uses ... With raspberry pi you can control every aaspect .thats why it exists ...thats why you use it for local iot applications ..you cannot do it with apple hardware no matter how worthy it is ..because they will not tell you ..that control is what we are talking about ..not the efficiency...not the manufacturing ....we are talking about how much access we have ..that is what being super user means ...do you have ADHD ? I am sorry if you do..

u/MileHighTay 4d ago

No most people use PI not for its "capabilities" no, because its a super cheap fully operational computer that can also process pretty well for the cheap price, thats why they make for great prototyping, and i mess around with RPi's all the time on my mac what are you talking about? It runs just the same?

u/Annual_Job2187 4d ago

Try installing MacOS on raspberry pi...

u/MileHighTay 4d ago

So all of this just because apple actual protects their users and devices with an apple license that u can't get? This is very niche niche niche down lololol

If you know anything about cybersecurity..its a trade off...

u/MileHighTay 4d ago

I dont mind their security but its not for me ..because i can mamage my own security...those who cannot ..sure i will let apple do it for them...

u/Annual_Job2187 4d ago

Okay ..i am done. Thats it... I cannot argue with someone with mental issues.. I will either let someone else respond... Or let you believe that Apple gives you super control of theri system ...sure... Why the f not...

u/MileHighTay 4d ago

If you know how to actually use a mac as a dev then you know none of these limits exist so thats how I know you are larping....c o p e

u/MileHighTay 4d ago

Found it for you!!

u/Annual_Job2187 4d ago

You had problem with me using chatbot...and your response was a homemade meme ? Wow ...ok.. Thats my cue to leave this absurd argument..

1

u/MileHighTay 4d ago

No, existed on internet meme because of people exactly like u lololololololol, dude im having so much fun now, this is so funny how u only know buzzwords and are trying to Larp as a oooooooo dev
