This is ridiclous
Introducing the new Apple Power Bottom.
Optional $200 dock with satisfyingly clicky lever mechanism that is activated from the front.
They clearly want you to let this one running 24/7, or, can you turn it on using the keyboard and that low power BT thing?
Looking forward to see the 3D prints made to fix this “feature”.
How is this newsworthy… smh
This is fake right
As long as your default mode is sleep it’d be ok. I touch my PCs power button only when it crashes so horribly that a forced shutdown is the only way out…
Just run it upside down.
At least it does mean your cat can never turn off your pc ever again with this
It’s a bit of a bummer given the power of the machine it would be otherwise good in IT environments. The small size would allow a rack or stack of them. This one
featuredesign choice makes that not possible. It’s on purpose.Apple insider are already framing this as not a design flaw but an advantage somehow
Now you can slam the top of the machine to boot it up
Guess the Magic Mouse design team was getting bored
Asahi Linux 👀
?
excellent marketing strategy to get us talking about their stuff that would otherwise get almost completely under our radar.
i mean fuck where the power button of a product ill probably never need is.
This is the epitome of a first-world problem.
Oh an Apple thread. More people angry at something they were never going to buy anyway.
if it didn’t make us angry, and INFLUENCE OTHER BUSINESSES TO DO THE SAME REPUGNANT SHIT, we’d be buying it.
I’m not angry. I’m just confused.
I thought it was satire at first, because the magic mouse has a charging port on the bottom making it unusable when charging
Turns out its not 🤡
More like laughing at what they were not going to buy anyway.
I’m still laughing at the mouse you can’t use while it’s charging
I guess I’ll be the exception as someone who does have a macmini because it is the best priced mini pc that can’t be beat, and will likely get the base model for this too for the same reason.
But I still would prefer a power button in the front.
Gotta get the Apple haters to be their #1 advertisers for free.
Keep it up people. Apple did almost nothing to advertise this computer. You’re the advertisement.
