I want to buy a 14.2" MacBook Pro, but I can't decide on the chip. My tasks are:1. Various daily tasks, such as web browsing, potentially some multitasking.2. Software development, webshit and some C/C++/Go/Rust.3. DAW4. Image editing, no more than one 5000x5000 (or less) image at a time.5. 3D modeling, 3D animation, 3D rendering (if it's animated in the first place, then it's no more than 5-10 minutes).The choice is between the base M5, the M5 Pro and the M5 Max chips. M5 Max is obviously the best, but I've heard bad things about battery life, thermal throttling, fan noise of the M5 Max chip in the 14" chassis, so I'm really unsure about it. M5 Pro is next best thing, but it has a significantly weaker GPU, the M5 Max's GPU is twice as powerful. I'm not considering the base M5 too much, but I've decided to include it anyway.In general it feels a little weird to me how I got upsold to the M5 Pro from the base M5, but I can't figure out at all whether I want to go to the M5 Max even though the increase in price is roughly the same.What do you suggest?

>>108493291Keyboard recommendation>Budget: Up to $300.>Location: Europe, but I'm ready to order from the US and have it shipped here through a forwarder.>Switches: I have no idea. I know jack shit about keyboards and mechanical keyboards. But my use cases for the keyboard are coding, typing text, using shortcuts in programs. I don't want the keyboard to be some kind of noisy thing. I do want it to feel pleasant to type and to press the keys, whatever that means. Feel free to suggest switches or types of them. I think ideally I would prefer to buy everything in one package without buying something separately.>Layout: ANSI or ISO, it doesn't matter. I guess I prefer ANSI, but I don't know.>Form factor: 75%. In general I want something without the numpad, but with arrows and with Home/PageUp/PageDown/End buttons, or close to it. I kinda want my hands to be roughly centered on the keyboard. Feel free to suggest other sizes if you think they're better for this.>Backlight: I don't care.>Current keyboard: My current keyboard is a membrane keyboard with a layout that is like ANSI, except that the Enter key is L-shaped in exactly the same orientation as the letter L (i.e. it's not like on ISO where it's an upside down L), and the key that is above the Enter key on ANSI is instead placed to the left of backspace, which takes only one key. I do not necessarily want this layout, it seems to be non-standard.
>>108530834Epomaker makes nice hardware (even when they aren't trying to pass off Skyloong keyboards as their own, Skyloong makes fabulous keyboards) but has horrible software
Very interesting find, Skyloong GK68 Mix has a PCB cross-compatible with both hall effect switches and normal MX switches, and has a socket for a knob module in the upper-right that can still have a switch of either type put in it instead

>>108520369Why are you not using userscripts anon? UBO is a must for many things and I have sponsor block too, but aside from that I'd shit myself over fingerprinting with that many extensions and a lot of these seem based around a single functionality. There are userscripts for muting channels among other things. Personally I've used ubo to remove a lot of the shit I find annoying about youtube but I'm not good at html or javascript so I have to rely on clicking shit and looking it up.
