Pro-motion also makes a big difference in perceived fluidity.

Even though they've come up with GPTK, which was a surprise, Apple wants native games. They want native games to run on iPhones so that can present every new model as "the only game console you need" and sell the narrative that if you want a phone that can run "console games", or simply the most...

I just read your post.

I'm not convinced by his arguments. Build a storefront? You must have games first, and I'm not sure a storefront would convince game developers. The Mac user base is too small, regardless of a store front. Throw money at publishers? What's the ROI? Would Mac sales increase that much?

We need a comparison using the same scene and settings before we can judge. EDIT: @dsparil reported 25 fps at 1440p with RT on. By comparison, a 4060 Ti manages 36 fps (on a different scene) at 1140p with "quality" upscaling. Not sure if @dsparil used metalFX, but if they didn't, the...

PC with Nvidia GPUs also seem to have performance issues.

Ok? I don't think @Scud was comparing game catalogues.

This tells more about the level of optimisation of the game and its settings than about the capabilities of these two machines.

Ubisoft opted for simultaneous releases on many platforms, and possibly decided that performance on macOS was good enough for the initial release. I expect performance to increase with updates.

Of note, Control Ultimate Edition comes to the Mac on the 28th. The game has recently been updated to support HDR and resolutions >4k.

Well there's a difference. There are web browsers which work well on an iPhone. Tens of thousands of apps. But almost no AAA games. Why is that? Being a general purpose computing device is what makes a smartphone a poor gaming device. Touch controls just suck for most types of games. There's the...

But Apple's hardware is not dedicated to gaming. No one buys a Mac for gaming. If you want to game on a computer, get a PC. As for the iPhone/iPad, neither is adequate (for non-casual gaming, that is). Mostly because of touch controls. IMO, it's the lack of dedicated hardware that's the main...

OpenGL and Vulkan barely make a difference. There are plenty of Unity and UE games that don't have Mac ports even though the IDEs support macOS. It's again mostly a question of user base.

That's what I was trying to say. The warning suggests that macOS can execute whatever code is in keyboard layout bundles.

Apple should reconsider this warning and only show it when relevant. They don't show such warning on every Safari extension or every app you launch.

When I look up a word that I know may relate to many files, I use the Finder search field with a combination of "search tokens": file type (pdf, docx...) file name and/or content. I don't expect Spotlight to show me the most relevant result on top. I mostly use cmd-escape as an app launcher.

No problem here.

When deleted text is set to appear in bubbles (tracked changes) comments on sections that contains deleted text no longer appear as bubbles. Say I delete a letter at the end of a word and I select the word to add a comment on it to justify the deletion, that comment isn't visible as a bubble...

What's amazing is that you can play 32-bit games on a modern Mac, as long as they're not Mac games.

I've been using VMWare to play some relatively old (DX9) games including Source games (HL2, Portal2, L4D2) and Deus-EX HR. Performance was much better than with crossover.
