The MacBook Pro 16-inch 2021 could see MagSafe return to the MacBook for the first time in several years. We already saw a version of MagSafe launch with the iPhone 12 but that was a specialized. With Big Sur and M1, Mac users can run a greater range of apps than ever before. All of Apple’s Mac software is now Universal and runs natively on M1 systems. Existing Mac apps that have not been updated to Universal will run seamlessly with Apple’s Rosetta 2 technology. And iPhone and iPad apps can now run directly on the Mac.

Accessing an M1 Mac mini in the cloud just got cheaper. Amazon Web Services (AWS) began offering Intel Mac mini instances at the end of last year for $1.083 per hour, in minimum 24-hour chunks. Scaleway, a European cloud services company, is now offering the M1 version for €0.10 ($0.12) per hour, with the same 24-hour minimum …
- Android Studio on M1 Mac is now supporting ARM images. Created a tablet with the image and a good resolution + ram. Install Game Pass. Stream your games from the cloud. Caveat: No Bluetooth support from the android emulator. No keyboard or mouse support from the Game Pass app. Only touch-ready games you can use a mouse. Edit: formatting text.
- You may be aware of some Mac users reporting excessive data being written to their internal SSD. In a previous video, I determined that although swap memory.

The company says the service is aimed at distributed development teams working on iOS and macOS projects.
This new launch provides Scaleway customers with the latest fully native Apple experience based on macOS Big Sur running on the lightning-fast Mac mini M1 at €0.10 per hour. All systems come pre-installed with the latest version of macOS Big Sur 11.2 and Xcode 12.4 […]
With the introduction of its Mac mini running on Apple silicon M1 on November 10, 2020, Apple stunned the world by delivering massive computing power while consuming 55% less energy than previous generations, and claimed the title of the “world’s best CPU performance per watt”.
Arnaud de Bermingham, Founder and President of Scaleway said, “The Apple silicon M1 is exactly the sort of innovation that we look for to deliver better computing performance to our clients while consuming less energy, in line with our DNA and environmental values.”
Yann Lechelle, CEO of Scaleway continued, “This is the perfect setup to tackle increasingly complex macOS or iOS continuous integration and delivery for distributed development teams.” Indeed, creating a Scaleway account to take remote control of a newly installed Mac mini M1 takes less than 5 minutes.
Scaleway is deploying its Mac mini M1 farm in its state-of-the-art DC4 data center located in a former nuclear fallout shelter 25 meters underground in Paris, France. As of today, Scaleway’s customers can benefit from the Mac mini M1 from anywhere in the world, and compute more while burning less.
AWS said in December that it expects to have M1 Mac minis available in the first half of this year.

Microsoft released a beta of their web-based xCloud game streaming service recently. It would seem that this version of the service will work with any web browser that supports WebRTC, so let’s see how that works.
I decided to plug an Xbox controller into the USB port of my Pinebook Pro running Manjaro Linux and the open-source Chromium web browser.
If you have an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, you can try the new beta web-based streaming service at Xbox.com/Play as well. The system requirements say that you need a Windows 10 PC or an Apple iOS 14+ device, but… guess what… Linux works, too.
Of course, you’ll also want a high-speed 10Mbps+ internet connection for the streaming, and an Xbox controller plugged in via USB or paired via Bluetooth. Microsoft mainly built this version because Apple won’t let them make a game streaming app for the Apple App Store, so the web-based method is a workaround for that. The bonus is that this web-based version happens to work with a lot of other platforms too.
This Pinebook Pro has extremely low specs by the way. It’s a six-core, 1.4GHz, Pine64 ARM processor with only 4GB of RAM and 64GB eMMC storage. If that was running Windows 10, everything would be laggy!
See below for how Xbox Game Streaming actually works on this very inexpensive Linux laptop running Manjaro XFCE Linux.
As you’ll see, the simple games work quite well, while more action-oriented games are probably going to need a bit more processing power on the client-side. Outriders worked ok, but there was certainly some latency, and Halo 5 Guardians turned out to be practically unplayable.
