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?
That would be no problem, unless your electricity is unreliable and you don't have a UPS. I rarely use the power button on any of my PCs or Macs, except the one old PC that can't do S3 sleep anymore (crashes on wake).
Are y'all not using sleep mode? Also the Apple M-cpus are extremely power efficient so leaving it on without sleep mode is a perfectly fine option too.
Power efficient if all your software agrees with it. I use an M3 at work and it dies in a couple hours during sleep.
s0ix is the same shit show on all three major platforms
Optional $200 dock with satisfyingly clicky lever mechanism that is activated from the front.
This is apple we're talking about. So it'll be $500 and called the iDock and the fans will call it innovation.
Introducing the new Apple Power Bottom.
How is this newsworthy... smh
For shitty reasons. You have to sniff a lot of your own farts to think putting it there is a good idea. Its like they don't think their crap crashes. I just had to to a net install on two this week in our lab.
Looking forward to see the 3D prints made to fix this "feature".
Can you just flip it over and leave it upside down? Cause I certainly would.
This is fake right
No, seems to be real.
Yeah, must be The Onion or smth
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...
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 ~~feature~~ design choice makes that not possible. It's on purpose.
Just run it upside down.
Or 3D print a stand to keep it sideways.
Or not buy it
At least it does mean your cat can never turn off your pc ever again with this
Computer so tiny cat knocks it off the desk instead
