that’s because apple uses arm chips which are much more power efficient than Intel and amd’s x86 chips

it mostly uses 15-20 watts or around that which is easy to dissipate than 45-50 watt Intel and amd produces which requires fan

I’ve heard even the most powerful m1 max chip doesn’t need fan when video editing (which can go for continuous 6 hrs on battery and you don’t see a performance hit when charging or on battery)

The MacBook Air with the M2 chip is fanless as well. If it gets to hot, performance is downgraded.

yeah, apple screwed up the m2 series

but I have the m1 air and it is near perfect
the only thing I want is a taller display like 3:2 and 15 inches maybe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
