  ok so I just saw the most unhinged tech setup and I need to talk about it someone stacked like 50+ Mac Minis on a shelf. yellow shelf. looks like a construction site met an Apple Store. and honestly?? this is lowkey genius and I'm mad nobody told me sooner because here's the ***** secret the M-series Mac Mini might be the best value compute unit on the market right now. per watt, per dollar, per cubic inch of space. it destroys traditional server hardware in efficiency. it just doesn't LOOK like serious infrastructure so people dismiss it but some guy in a random office somewhere said you know what, I don't need a $400k rack from Dell. I need 60 of these bad boys, some ethernet, and a dream. and now he has a build/test pipeline that probably runs faster than your company's entire cloud setup no loud fans. no special power requirements. no "enterprise support contract" where someone charges you $800 to restart a service. just apples. wall to wall apples. the chair sitting lonely in the corner of the shot is sending me. someone WORKS there. they just sit next to the apple army every day and think nothing of it we are not the same #ai #macmini #macmini4

  Update regarding this issue: I just visited an authorized Apple Service Center. They told me that if Apple approves the replacement, it will take about 1–2 months because the replacement unit needs to be imported from Singapore. Even though I have the case number and a letter from the Apple Store Shinsaibashi, they said those documents don’t guarantee that my iPhone will be replaced. If Apple declines the replacement request, I’ll need to contact Apple Support again. I’m really hoping they’ll replace my device. In the meantime, I’ll be using my other iPhone as my main phone.

  CHINESE DEVS PACKED 1,000 MAC MINIS INTO A SINGLE DATA CENTER AND BUILT A $9,000,000-A-YEAR AI BUSINESS OUT OF APPLE'S CHEAPEST BOX. one thousand silver boxes. rack after rack, floor to ceiling, a wall of fans roaring to keep the whole room cool. Apple sold every one of them for $599 as a desktop for students and creators. these guys turned all thousand into a private cloud that rents compute Western companies charge a fortune for. the build cost around $600,000 once. electricity runs a few thousand a month. and roughly a hundred clients pay monthly retainers to run their models on hardware that never touches the public cloud. run the math and it stops looking like a hobby — boxes bought once, power measured in the low thousands, revenue clearing tens of millions before anyone in the West notices. OpenAI raised billions to build data centers. these guys raised nothing, bought a thousand boxes off the shelf, and quietly undercut the entire industry. the craziest part isn't the scale. it's that every piece of it was sitting in the Apple Store the whole time. tomorrow I'm breaking down how a farm this size is actually wired — the racks, the cooling, the software holding a thousand machines together. save this before running your own cloud stops sounding insane ↓

  Welcome to Apple. Where everything is carefully scripted. That said, lots of Apple employees have told me the same. Building for Apple's scale is much more difficult than being a startup and launching something on a weekend that isn't secure, is nerdy to use. Go to an Apple store and watch some of the classes people are taking. Many are still figuring out how to use their camera on their iPhone. Getting an agentic system into the OS will take a lot more thought than what OpenClaw or Hermes has put in yet, which are systems designed for early adopters/developers who know what they are doing. It makes Apple seem slow and not innovative. I saw the same inside Microsoft when I worked there. Hard to do innovative things when you have a billion users who are on a spectrum of grandmas to nerds. Then there is protection of their existing business models. I have a phone that has a completely agentic operating system on it, which takes away a lot of the business model of app stores and apps. Apple will take years to do such a thing, is my prediction. If you want such a thing (I do) then you gotta look elsewhere unfortunately. (It runs on Android since that OS lets developers do crazy things like that).

  Just spent nearly 5 hours on the phone with Apple support today and yesterday. As a customer since 2001, this is the worst experience I’ve ever had with them.Ordered a loaded 16" MacBook Pro + Magic Mouse + AirPods Pro, twice on their website. Both orders were cancelled with zero explanation.First order: Apple Pay/Apple Card issues. Reps kept saying “it’s your bank” even though Barclays confirmed no payment request ever came through. Spent hours getting bounced between pre-sales, post-sales, and tech support. Order status links broken, phone number problems, account linking issues. Second order made the next day after double-checking everything and it was also cancelled overnight.When I called back today, I was told they “can’t tell me why” it was cancelled and to “just keep placing the order until it works.” Asked for a supervisor and a rude rep hung up on me while I was waiting.Their only suggestions: call pre-sales again or go to an Apple Store (not an option for me).This is unacceptable. Long-time loyal customers deserve better than this runaround with no answers. Apple used to be top tier. What happened? #Apple #AppleSupport #BadCustomerService

  If this saved you $70 or helped you realize the Pro 2 is worth $70 more one ask: Repost the first post so the next person standing in the Apple Store staring at two boxes has the breakdown before they buy. Follow [ @RidiTechAI ] I break down the hidden comparisons, features, and pricing games that companies bank on you not questioning.

  A guy walked into an Apple Store to buy a MacBook Air. He walked out having spent $2,100 on a $999 laptop. He thought he made smart choices the whole time. His brother in law, who worked Apple retail for 9 years, watched the receipt and just shook his head. In the parking lot he said: "You didn't buy a laptop today. You bought seven upsells wrapped around a laptop. The storage tier. The AppleCare pitch. The trade in number. The 'while you're here' accessories. None of it is random. Every rep is trained to hit those seven moments in that order." He broke down 9 tricks Apple retail uses and the counter move for each one. Two months later the brother bought his own MacBook using the playbook. Same store. Same model. $760 less. Here's everything he said.

  Sign of the time She is so ******* bored and distracted….she wasn’t really looking for trouble, yesterday. “I was just standing there,in an Apple store, USA,and got hit in the face for no reason at all.” What happened next?? Public fights are normal nowadays. Weird.

  I think it's way deeper than cost efficiency. Several Apple employees have talked to me over the years about "Apple scale." If you go and sit in an Apple Store and watch people taking a class, there are many Apple customers who are still learning how to use the camera on their phone. When they roll new technology into the Apple platform, it has to work for everybody, not just the nerds. I think that's mostly what he's saying: this technology is still too hard to use and too freaky for normal everyday people, and it brings new service problems to Apple. There is a cost efficiency part to it, of course, but it's really about making products that work at Apple scale. And how many users does that involve? Billions, right?
