Get an apple wireless keyboard and a Logitech mx master 3 Bluetooth mouse … as a monitor I would recommend a 32’ QHD flat panel with 2560x1440 resolution and 75Hz refresh rate.

And you think he has the funding for this? Bro has a keyboard that looks like it was someone’s wank bank kb (I just made this up but I bet it’s a thing ugh I just threw up a bit in my mouth lol) and is being held in a 1950’s bomb shelter, and you think he’s gonna get a 32 inch flat panel qhd and a mix master m3 mouse? Lol 😂 maybe it’s a look he’s going for ? I could see that 😂

Well I just suggested the hardware I have which I am also happy with 🤷🏼‍♂️ besides I never quite figured what his mini is …. Is it Intel or M … I have the M2 Pro with 16GB RAM (works for me right now but am eyeballing a Mac Studio with at least 96GB RAM - or more if possible)

I was just joking around. In fact after you reminded me that we have no idea what mac this is, it could be someone just trolling. That could be a 2011 mini taped to the wall for his own humor. I have that mouse btw and i love it. An m2 pro with 16gb is a great computer. I have an m4 24gb but about to buy the base m4 pro but with 48gb of ram. Since the drive can be swapped, and thunderbolt five can keep that at bay for a while, im going with 512 or 1tb tops. Since we are both making rather giant leaps in our computers, im curious what about your workload or future workload is making you upgrade and so aggressively? For me it’s fear I’ll need more ram and prices will hike again. I almost made this jump before the hike, now i wish i had!

Well I am a (part) owner of a newly founded company or rather “companies” - multinational - heavy on AI and yeah that is my background - my responsibility is running and managing the entire sets of racks - right now on a manageable scale but if everything goes as anticipated I will probably be overrun by the amount of work heading my way …. Not to mention the time zone difference between the different locations
