This is the thing; I feel like AI isnt the issue so much as politics, like ownership and such, idk tho

Hmmm anyone out there who could code an exorcist!? Pesky daemons

Yeah ive done my best to quit everything, its more the risk of some process starting up in the background, spotlight indexing is the example i can think of, and ive a script to switch that off but there must be other things that could start up, steal processing power momentarily, and so risk dropouts

I just wish you could turn all non essential features off. I perform music using my mac laptop and the m4 processor works great, but the recent update to apple intelligence forced me to turn siri off entirely as id lost processing headroom that had allowed me to perform without risking audio drops. I often wonder what other background processing is costing me that headroom, but the only thing i can easily turn off with a script is spotlight indexing. Wish I could switch off every background process with a click, apple could call it “performance mode” or some shit and introduce it with a slick new presentation but i guess they don’t because all tech companies value nowadays is not users but data…

to a vegan it kinda sounds equivalent to “just don’t be racist most days of the week, thats a good start”
