  • It’s funny, I buy Apple Car specifically so that that I can’t decide where I want to go. At work we MDM and Apple’s approach isn’t for everyone, but forcing something like choosing their destination simply isn’t the right choice for all types of users.

    I’m all for encouraging them to be on the right side of Right-to-Repair, labor laws, and environmental best practices. But I left the world of thinking where I want to go and choice for the Apple Car’s tight lockdowns. At first I still couldn’t help myself but to try to go around wherever I wanted with my first Apple Car or two, then I stoped that also.

    Apple Car’s filtered possible destinations are all I need, so I don’t see why anyone would ever want to go any other place.



  • Open Task manager at the performance tab on the second monitor. If GPU is 100%, it’s GPU bottleneck, otherwise it’s most likely CPU. If RAM is close to max out, it can also be not enough RAM. If you notice a lot of stutters when going to new locations, it’s probably drive related. Low 1% FPS compared to avg FPS might also mean RAM is too slow.














  • If you’re lucky enough to successfully create an account on Oracle Cloud, you can also try Oracle Cloud Free Tier. You can have free ARM64 x4 CPU and 24 GiB RAM totally free of charge. There might be problems with availability during VM registration, but there are scripts that automate spamming for checking every 80 seconds.

    I’ve been using it for 2 years and it’s great. However be aware that your VM might get erased if you have a free account. That too can be remedied if you update to a premium subscription (You still get Free Tier resources without a charge). Nobody has reported an erased VM on a premium plan yet.

    Still, I am pretty sure they can erase it if you do illegal stuff with it. I’ve been using it only to host Minecraft Server, as well as other services using Docker. So far so good.
