Comment on Apple's last tower topples… and the others will follow

masterspace@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

This is a bad article. It’s just an Apple fanboy watching their company continue its trend of shitting on customers and assuming that everyone inevitably will, apparently never once reflecting on whether their insistence of sticking with Apple is the real problem.

Their argument boils down to CPUs increasingly integrating basic versions of other components over time meaning that desktops will disappear… Ignoring that the desktop market has stayed surprisingly flat that entire time and has certainly not disappeared.

If your argument is that integrated CPUs will outclass discrete components connected with high speed buses then you need to make it from an engineering standpoint, not a headline one.

I also don’t understand his reasoning that because NVidia don’t buy ARM they don’t get to make an integrated CPU… They still do … to this day … Because ARM’s entire business model is based on companies like Nvidia licensing their designs.
