Where the fuck they found such ancient hardware in 2022??? Don’t they feel shame in charging this much money for this shit?

    Our printer at work is fancy and has a haswell based pentium and a whole 4 gigs of ram. It’s only a little over 10 years old hardware.

    The printer also supports vnc for some reason. I haven’t figured out why.

      You can VNC to the printer to access the control panel. I do remote support and it’s a life saver when trying to troubleshoot / test scanning by functions

      I saw a thing today that the new apple displays have 12gb of ram because their economies of scale for their in house chip is so low.

        The prior-generation ‌Studio Display‌ had 64GB of storage, so the new displays have double the capacity. Apple likely found it more affordable to use existing NAND storage from its iPhone supply chain rather than to invest in smaller modules with less storage. Most of the 128GB is probably unnecessary.
