The main metric has been with Adobe apps. 2017 Macs with 8GB of RAM are still able to run Premiere and a few others things smoothly simultaneously. Windows machines with the same config were crashing constantly and kept going.

But I’m still not defending Apple here. It’s been 6 years, and their base level MacBook still ships with the same amount of RAM.

In my entirely anecdotal experience, MacOS is significantly better at RAM management than Windows. But it’s still a $1,600 USD computer, and 16GB of RAM costs nearly nothing, it’s just classic Apple greed.

I think Jacob Geller is the best video essayist out there, he posts a nebula exclusive for all of his videos too.

I’m gonna be honest, I saw this coming. Maybe it’s because I’ve had experiences with abusive media companies (though not nearly this severe), but when I saw Madison left with no real explanation, I had a feeling something was up. I still follow one of the women who was on their camera team, and she posted some vague but knowing comments after the news first came out that Madison quit.

Fuck these egotistical tech bros that think they own the world because they got lucky. The worst part is they’ll never understand that they did something wrong.

When I was still watching I remember he said if LMG ever tried to unionize he would take it as a personal failure. The intention of that statement may mean well, but it’s a really not great view to have and profess. Unions can (and should) maintain a good relationship between the workers and management.
