I finally ran a benchmark (should have done this months ago when I bought the thing). And, my seems to be underperforming, as I expected.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on what I can do to fix this? Is it just bad silicon? This benchmark is underperforming compared to the exact lesser counterpart of the same manufacturer.

When the M1 MacBooks dropped, they looked amazing and I picked one up in 2021. It's 2025 now, so it's fairly typical of me to be upgrading. It felt a little unnecessary since my M1 was: extremely perfectly fine. It's an excellent machine really and it will continue to be for it's next owner for surely many, many years. I'm just a privileged dude and we have a work budget for these things.

dell has made the genius move of completely changing their naming scheme for all products. gone are the latitudes and XPSs and inspirons. now we have a two-pronged system: there's three categories (dell, dell pro, dell pro max (yes, really)), as well as three tiers (base, plus, premium)
this means we'll now have something like "Dell Pro Max 13 Premium" instead of "Dell XPS+ 13", and "Dell 15" instead of "Dell Inspiron 15". in some ways, this is clearer, sure, but it has the same problem replacing tweets with "posts" does: "XPS" on its own is short and memorable and doesn't require you to mention the brand. now it's a Dell Pro Max Premium, which is far clunkier. there's a reason samsung calls it an "S24 Ultra" and not a "Samsung 24 Ultra Premium".
dude, you're getting a Dell Pro Max 15 Premium!

I just had a glitch in the RSS feed resulting in me getting the last 50+ articles anew. But that's not the reason for me writing.
Getting this massive overview showed me that you published a few opinion articles or commentaries like this one in the last few days and weeks and I just wanted to tell you that I really appreciate those. The news are great but putting context around developments is even better. So thanks. 🙂

Remote work and study is an effective way to reduce the spread of contagious infections, but not everyone has access to reliable networks. We want to shine a spotlight on offline-first software which allows people to synchronize data when they're connected to the internet, and to continue interacting with it when they're not.
We're interested in hearing about applications that support intermittent connectivity. Tell us about your success stories with the use of such software, or the failure cases with online-only apps that motivated your interest.
Share the lessons learnt from development:
* how you handle or prevent conflicts when replicating data
* the UX impacts of eventually-consistent models
* approaches for debugging unexpected behaviour in distributed systems

The US should not be called "America". Nor should its citizens be called "Americans". Interestingly, many ex-pat US citizens refer to themselves as USians. Strange to articulate, but expresses their position on nomenclature clearly.
The US is not all of the Americas. The "Americas" was a convenient designation for the western continents decided upon by a European mapmaker, and the name stuck with the Europeans. So, when they stole the lands of the western continents, they just glued the name onto everything.
This humorous and largely accurate video lays bare all the insanity that is "America".
