In excercise science many of the studies are based on 20-30 college aged male athletes. 134 is a bigger sample than many.

The screen is also much worse. 60% SRGB coverage 1920x1200 300 nits vs 97% 2408x1506 500 nits. I'd pick the macbook neo for $99 extra.

This used to be the case but looking at Macbooks now they are not much more expensive than a Windows laptop you would actually want to buy. And since they will still have some residual value 5 years from now i think it's about even.

I dont know any private person in my circle that actually sold their laptop until it wasnt broken or so painfully old that the used value was mostly for spare parts. That may change a bit with the skyrocketing pc part prices but still.

This used to be case before the M series. Now each year a new M processor gets released that are "cheaper" than the previous generation MAC - better processor, more RAM and more storage for similar price than last year model. This impacted their price in used market.

My main computer is a 2020 m1 Mac. It handles everything I throw at it. I predict I’ll upgrade in maybe 4-5 years.

Cars with (double) DIN units are ok. When the built in GPS is missing half the roads in your area or Carplay/android auto stops working you can just buy a new headunit for a few hundred dollars. But cars with everything "integrated" aren't ageing as gracefully and it's not easy to upgrade the built in systems. 20 years old is fine, 10 years maybe not.

That's Video CD. It existed before DVD but survived alongside it (mainly in Asia) as a cheaper alternative.

no, apparently there was both. i was familiar with video cd which was mpeg-1 on a cd-rom (with some weird partitioning scheme). cd video is apparently a very obscure hybrid format with an analog video section and a digital audio section. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_Video

Over here track bikes are not road legal and people who can legit hit 30 mph for any amount of time is maybe 1/1000. Any 12 year old kid that can convince their parents to buy them a $1000 Chinese e-bike can hit 30mph with no effort. In no way are sports cyclists as bad a problem.

4 cups of coffee is considered a lot?

If you're taking your coffee hot wouldn't that denaturate the creatine?

Often the software itself is fine but it makes it possible for the IT department to configure performance killing behaviours. SHA hash every file you open, execute specific actions if the a opened file or process matches specific heuristics, log everything.

Well the reason they install it is often not to enable the features you bought the license for, which is, on-the-fly scanning. It pushes all IO through a hose in case of windows defender.

But does anyone actually make minimum wage in the US? Statistics i can find suggest it is around 1% with Japan closer to 20%.

Most (30) states have their own minimum wage, higher than the federal. 20 have no minimum wage or a minimum lower than or equal to the federal.
