はてなキーワード: M2とは
ご主人様～♡ あたし、MacでLoRAモデルを動かす方法、めっちゃわかりやすくオタク向けに説明するね！ Stable Diffusion（SD）系のLoRA（キャラやスタイルを追加する軽量モデル）だよね？ Apple Silicon（M1/M2/M3/M4）MacならGPU（Metal）で結構サクサク動くよ～！
MacでLoRAを「使う」場合と「自作（学習）する」場合で方法が変わるから、順番に教えるね。初心者さんでも大丈夫なやつ中心にピックアップしたよ！
Mac App Storeで無料のDraw Thingsアプリが超便利！ インストールするだけでローカルでSD動いて、LoRAもすぐ使える＆学習までできる神アプリだよ。
• インストール：Mac App Storeから「Draw Things」を検索してダウンロード（無料）。
• LoRAの使い方：
1 CivitaiとかからLoRAファイル（.safetensors）をダウンロード。
2 アプリ開いて、Settings → Model → Manage からLoRAをインポート（ファイル選択 or URL貼り付け）。
3 生成画面でLoRA欄から選んで、**weight（強さ）**を0.6〜1.0くらいに調整（最初は0.7おすすめ）。
4 プロンプトにトリガーワード（LoRAの説明に書いてあるやつ）を入れると効果バッチリ！
• 学習（自作LoRA）もできる：PEFTタブからベースモデル選んで、画像フォルダ指定→学習スタート。FluxやSDXLにも対応してるよ～。
MシリーズMacならMetal加速で速いし、iPhone/iPad版もあるから持ち運びもOK！ 初めてならこれから始めると失敗少ないよ♡
• 手順のざっくり：
1 Homebrewインストール（ターミナルで /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"）。
2 Gitでリポジトリclone：git clone https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui.git
3 モデル（SD1.5やSDXL）をmodels/Stable-diffusion/に置く。
4 LoRAはmodels/Lora/フォルダにドラッグ＆ドロップ。
5 ターミナルで ./webui.sh 実行してブラウザで開く。
6 生成画面のLoRAタブから選んで、 みたいにプロンプトに入れる。
Mac版はMPS（Metal）対応してるけど、たまに --no-half オプションが必要になる場合あり。エラー出たら「Mac Stable Diffusion WebUI」で検索して最新情報チェックしてね！
• もっと細かくやりたいなら Kohya’s GUI（bmaltais版）：
◦ MacのGPU（MPS）対応させて学習。画像フォルダ用意→タグ付け→TrainでOK。
• ComfyUIもApple Silicon対応版あるけど、ノード組むのがちょっと上級者向けかも。
• メモリ：16GB以上推奨（32GBだと余裕）。M1/M2でも動くけど、M3/M4の方が高速。
• LoRAとベースモデルのバージョン（SD1.5 / SDXL / Fluxなど）を合わせる！ 合わないとエラー出るよ。
• CivitaiでLoRA探すときは「Trigger words」と「Base model」確認忘れずに～。
ご主人様がどのMac（M何チップ？ RAM何GB？）使ってるか教えてくれたら、もっとピンポイントでアドバイスできるよ～！ 例えば「Draw ThingsでFluxのLoRA動かしたい」とか具体的に言ってね♡
何か詰まったらすぐ聞いて！ あたし、がんばってサポートするから一緒にオタク活動楽しもうぜ～！✨ 画像生成の成果見せてくれたら嬉しいな♡
オタク産業ってのはビデオ配信収入の割合なんて費用トントンまで行ければいいレベルで、
利益を出すための売り上げはグッズやイベント、コラボで出すしかない
腐女子向け、あるいは萌え豚向けなら利益が見込めるけど、M2層M3層にそんな購買力は無い
まず出発点は明快である。
これは Milton Friedman の最も有名な命題であり、シカゴ学派の中核テーゼである。
Capitalism and Freedom 第3章 The Control of Money においても、中央銀行の責任が強調されている。
数量方程式
MV = PY
π = μ + ν - g
パンデミック期に観察されたのは、歴史的規模のμの急増である。FRB・ECB・日銀を含む主要中央銀行は、実質的な「ヘリコプター・マネー」に近い政策を採用した。
これは政策当局による自己放尿的マネーサプライ膨張であり、制度的アンカーを失ったdiscretionary policyの典型的自己放尿である。
フリードマンは一貫してconstant money growth ruleを主張した。これは金融政策の自動操縦である。
裁量主義はtime inconsistencyを内包する。短期的な安定化の誘惑が、長期的なインフレ期待のアンカーを破壊する。
π_t = π_t^e - α(u_t - u^*)
長期では
u_t = u^*
よって、
π_t = π_t^e
中央銀行がマネー成長率を抑制し、期待インフレ率π^eを引き下げれば、インフレは必ず収束する。
しかし重要なのは収束は即時ではない。これはフリードマンが自然失業率仮説で強調した点である。
フリードマンの実証研究では、金融政策の効果にはlong and variable lagsがある。
2. 需要刺激
3. 労働市場逼迫
4. コアインフレ拡大
という順序で波及した。逆に言えば、マネー伸び率が鈍化しても、インフレは慣性をもって持続し自己放尿する。
コロナ期にはVが急低下した。そのため一部の論者は「マネー増加は問題ない」と主張した。
これによりVが反転すれば、νがプラスに転じ、インフレ圧力が持続して自己放尿する。
ここにシカゴ学派の洞察がある。マネーは短期的に眠っていても、最終的には物価に現れる。
が必要である。ここで重要なのは、中央銀行のcredibilityである。
フリードマンは中央銀行に過度な裁量を与えることに懐疑的だった。
なぜなら、政治的圧力は必ず貨幣供給の過剰拡張へと向かって自己放尿するからである。
コロナ禍の自己放尿的マネーサプライがインフレを生んだのであれば、マネー伸び率の持続的低下は、必然的にインフレ率を収束させる。
しかし
シカゴ学派的に言えば、問題は「インフレは収束するか」ではない。 問題は「中央銀行がルールに戻る覚悟があるか」である。
インフレは、ケインズ的総需要論の自己放尿ではなく、純粋に貨幣的膨張の帰結である。
自動調理家電が色々と話題だが電子レンジこそが自動調理家電の雄であることを気付かされた。食材をつっこんでメニュー選んで後は待つだけというQOLの爆上げを感じることが出来る。
「令和時代の新三種の神器」に「ドラム式洗濯乾燥機」と「食洗機」と「ロボット掃除機」が挙げられるが、前述の三種を既に所有していた身としては「スチームオーブンレンジ」の方が先だろと言わざるを得ない。
スチームオーブンレンジについてぶっちゃけて言えば、最新のスチームオーブンレンジじゃなくて型落ちでも全く問題がないので未所持の方は本気でご検討を。
その名の通りの風呂で使える防水無線スピーカー。対応音声コーデックはSBCとAAC。
最大の特徴はQi2対応によるマグネット無線充電が可能な点で、このマグネットにより風呂場で磁石が効く部分へ付けられること。風呂に入りながらゆっくりと音楽やポッドキャストを聞く、動画を観るなどに最適で、日本人のために設計されたとしか思えない。
風呂場で磁石使える部分なくとも洗濯ネットか何かに放り込んで吊るしておけば良い。
Ankerの比較的まともなUSB-C to USB-Cケーブル。
高性能なUSBケーブルは結構堅いのが多いけれどもコイツは他社と比較すると柔らかめ。何だかんだでこういう細かな部分でQOLってのは上がるんだなぁと再認識。
AMD Ryzen7 PRO 8840U、DDR5 64 GB、M.2 SSD 1TBという構成。
もともとはApple Macbook Pro(2023)でApple M2 Max、メモリ32GB、SSD 1TBという構成のものを使っていた。
結局のところLinuxで開発するならホストOSもLinuxが一番面倒が無いんだという悟りを得てしまいThinkPad on Linuxへ移行。
利用しているLinuxディストリビューションはNixOSで、KVMにWindows 11も居る状況。
デスクトップ環境はHyprland、シェルはzsh、日本語入力はfcitx5-mozc-ut、エディタはNeoVimとVSCode(nvimプラグイン導入)。
NVIDIA DGX Spark互換機で128GBのユニファイドメモリを積んでいる便利なやつ。
DGX Spark互換機はNVIDIAからの積極的なサポートもあり日進月歩な感じで少し目を離すとかなり変わっていく印象。
筆者は画像生成はほとんど行っておらず機械学習に利用しているが、Thinkpadと合わせてこのフットプリントで高い処理能力を活かした機械学習できるの本当に良いね。
数年は戦えるし、たぶんリセールバリューも期待できるので買って損は無い気はしている。
ただ、ChatGPTやGeminiへの課金は減ったと言えども続けてしまっているので「ChatGPTやGemini要らず！」なんてレビューは嘘だと思う。
結局は新モデルが出たら触りたくなるのが技術者の性なので「DGX Sparkはコスパ良い！」なんてのは幻想だよと。
ちなみにASUS ASCENT GX10へこだわりがあったわけでなく、たまたま最も早く入手できたのがコレだっただけ。
ラズパイもここまで性能が上がったのかと感動した。
一般ユーザーの用途では軽いビジネス文書作成やWebブラウジングくらいならば余裕で実用に耐えうる。実家の老父母のPCはもうコレで良いんじゃないか？と錯覚するレベル。
技術者的な目線では簡易的なサーバーや無線LANルーターなどの構築も可能で、今は8GB版が子供用の無線LANルーターになっている(ネット使いすぎを防ぐための方策。一定時間に使いすぎると速度を徐々に低下させてる)。
むしろここまで来ると「次世代機Raspberry Pi 6(16GB版)がどうなるか？」に興味津々で、HDMIだけじゃなくDisplayPortとか対応して120fps出力とかしだしたら本当にもうコレで良いんじゃないかなぁ？
MediaTek Dimensity 7400X、メモリ8GB、ストレージ256GB、デュアルカメラ、FeliCa、物理nanoSIM(eSIMも対応)、外部SDカードは未対応。
Appleエコシステムから抜けちゃったので「コレでもう良いんじゃねぇかな？」という感じに落ち着いてしまった。
散々言われまくっているが「iPhone Airが目指すべきはコレだった」というのは本当にそう思う。だってテーブルへ置きやすいし。
若者から老害って言われても仕方ないと思うけど「電話掛けるとき物理的に曲げられる素晴らしさ」よな。人間工学的にコッチの方が正しいんじゃなかろうか？
筆者、実は自作キーボード勢および自作格ゲーアケコン勢である。INARI M06とは卓上で利用できる射出成形機だ。
3DプリンターでFDM方式をやって光造形方式をやって、色んな3Dプリンターを買っては試して売っぱらい「やっぱり射出成形が最強だよね！」とついに手を出した。
3Dプリンターでは一切真似のできない製造速度と強度、精度に「やっぱりコレよ！」となっている。
しかし、INARI M06には上位機種INARI P35が存在しており「・・・いやコレを導入したらもう業者ではないか？」と自問自答を繰り返している。
卓上CNCフライス盤と呼ばれる工作機械。上記のINARI M06のアルミニウム金型を削り出すために導入。カスタムパーツも豊富で、何ならカスタムパーツも自分自身で製造できるという性能を持っている。
3Dプリンターが不必要というわけでなく用途の違いと言うか、試作するには3Dプリンターはまだまだ有用で、試作を元に金型を作って量産するのに射出成形機って便利なのよね。
今ではキーキャップのほか、基盤やキースイッチすら自作が出来る環境になっているものの、PCケースみたいな大型のものは自作できないので、そろそろメタルベンダーとか100v溶接機(家庭電源で使える)とか必要なんじゃないかな？と検討してる。
ただやはり、自身で加工が困難だと感じる部分はJLPCBやmeviy(㈱ミスミ)に頼むのもアリだ。
ごめん、最初に10選って書いたけど10個ピックアップするの無理だった。
細々した工具とかガジェットとか買ってるんだけど10選に挙げたいってほどのものじゃなかった。
というわけで最後は頼んだ。
MacとLinuxを両方使っている人として言わせてもらうと、Linuxの方がいいとは限らないけど、Macにする特別な理由がなければLinuxにした方がいいと思います。
そもそもMacは高いですし、パフォーマンスは確実にLinuxの方がいいはずです。
特にセキュリティの観点からも、Linuxの方が優秀な点が多いです。
例えば、Linux自体はカーネルという、OSのうちの一部分に過ぎないため、Linuxで脆弱性が見つかっても、UbuntuやFedoraなどのよりソフトウェアに近い段階(厳密にはLinuxディストリビューション)とはある程度分離された状態なので、よほどの変更がない限りLinuxだけアップデートすることが可能です。
また、Linuxはアップデートというより、新しいバージョンのLinuxカーネルを用意してそちらに切り替える、という構造になっています。
そもそもLinuxは元々、あまり日常用途で使用することはあまりなく、最近になって増えてきたところです。
最近の、特にOSに関わる部分の機能では、どうしても標準では対応できていません。(例えばパスキーなどです)
また、先ほども言及したLinuxディストリビューションは、様々な種類があるため、それらから選ぶのも難しいかもしれません。(実際私も最近までずっと色々なディストリビューションを試して、ようやくFedoraに落ち着いたところです)
日本語IMEだけでも様々な種類がありますし、慣れている人でなければなかなか使いにくい部分もあります。
一応、MacBookでLinuxを動かすという「Asahi Linux」というものがあり、M1/M2には既にある程度対応しているため、もしMacBookでmacOSとLinuxを同時に使う、というのが許容範囲であればそれも良さそうです。
また、Macの固有機能としてはスクリーンタイム(アプリの利用制限や時間での制限、コンテンツの制限などを行える機能)などが存在するので、それを利用する、と言えば納得されると思います。
実際、スクリーンタイムはMacにする特別な理由として十分です。
Linuxの場合どうしても自由度が高過ぎて、様々な方法で同じことをできてしまい、制限が難しいため、スクリーンタイムのような機能は追加しにくいわけです。
ちなみにデスクトップとラップトップの話に関しては、私はまあまあ納得できます。実際デスクトップの方がコスパはいいですし、持ち運びさえしなければデスクトップ一択です。
ただしおそらく持ち運びするでしょうし、コスパをそこまで気にしないならラップトップでもいいかもしれません。
Windowsの話に関しては、Windowsがそもそも最近不具合が多すぎるため、前から一般的に使われているOSの中で安定しているもの、としては現在Macの方が優秀です。
そのため流石にそれには納得できません。
まとめると、Linuxも優秀だがMacにも様々な利点があるため、MacにしたいならMacでいいし、LinuxにしたいならLinuxでいいと思います。
35歳、健康診断オールA、脳の20%、右大脳中大脳動脈の梗塞 との記載
→ 右 MCA m1 distal の embolic stroke ？（穿通枝は spare ）
脳梗塞は大きく
塞栓性
そのほか
に分けられる（このほかにも分類があるが）。
実際にはアテローム性＋塞栓性みたいなものもあり、こんなにクリアカットには分けられない。
35歳と若いことから、今後の人生で再発する危険性は十分にあるし、それを防ぐことがすごく大事。
ご本人は自分のことをすごく不幸と思ってらっしゃる（かどうかは知らんけど）かもだけど、幸運な要素もあったなと思う。
というのは梗塞が右だったということ。
これが左なら失語が残り、言語的コミュニケーションが不可能になっていた可能性が高い。
将来的にそういった事態を防ぎたい。それには原因を知らなきゃいけないわけだ。そのためのタイプ分け。
で、タイプ分け。おそらく塞栓性ですよね。
まず高血圧性の脳梗塞は高齢者に多いし、健康診断で基礎疾患がないとされているので、高血圧は否定的。
アテローム血栓性も、健康診断でオールAとのことで否定的。これは高脂血症（脂質異常症）＋高齢＋喫煙などでリスクが増えるので。
塞栓性梗塞の原因検索については経食道（けいしょくどう）エコーがなされたとのこと。
これは、食道側から行う心臓の超音波検査。通常の、体表（胸の前に）プローブを当てて行う心臓超音波検査（ガチ勢は「心エコー図」と呼ぶらしい）と比べ、より左心房が詳しく見える。
これで、左心耳血栓（発作性心房細動 Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, Paf と関連）と卵円孔開存（patent foramen ovale, PFO）は除外したのだろうね？
ただ、ワンポイントの経食エコーで Paf や PFO を完全に除外できるとは限らない。ホルター心電図をやった記載がないし、他にも色んな原因を除外した記録がないよね。
DVT検索をした記載はないし、来院時の D-dimer/FDP （でぃーだいまー、えふでぃーぴー）なども書いていない。
どこまで何をやったのか分からん。
症状的には左片麻痺、同領域の感覚障害。高次脳機能障害かな？ 右内包後脚／放線冠／中心前回・後回の広範囲 のどこかが侵されている可能性が高いと。
視野障害が出現しているので、視放線が部分的に侵されている。右側頭葉が冒されている、と。
最終的に感覚障害が残ったが、運動障害は軽い → 内包後脚ではなさそう。放線冠でやられたわけでもなく、脳皮質側でやられた印象を受ける。
脳の20％が失われた → MCA m2 inferior trunk 側で梗塞が大きかったタイプですかね？ m2 は inferior が一番広いからねぇ。
脳の20% はやられたってことだけど、結構大きな梗塞だよね。
脳は左右の大脳半球、小脳、脳幹、間脳などに分かれ、左右の大脳半球がそれぞれ40% ぐらいを占めている。脳の20% っていうのは右大脳半球の半分くらいがやられたとのこと。それなら 右MCA領域のほぼ全域がやられているよね。となると、m1 occlusion の可能性が高い。あるいは、m2 の 3枝全てが詰まったか。
m1 occlusion については proximal と distal があるのだけど、
減圧開頭を行ってない
m1 proximal 「らしくない」
→ m1 distal または m2 の複数領域の梗塞（特に inferior trunk に強い：視野障害が出た、感覚障害が残ったなどから）と推察できる。
こういった比較的太い場所への塞栓が起きるには、比較的大きな塞栓が飛ぶ必要があり、つまり Paf とか PFO がある可能性が高いよね。
微小塞栓性のもの、例えばトルーソー症候群とかseptic emboli、fat embolizationみたいな、は否定できる。
大きな塞栓子と言うことでは Paf が隠れてる可能性はあるし、
大きな梗塞の割に運動機能が回復していることから、PFO による DVT の奇異性塞栓だった（比較的"若い"血栓のため、早くに溶けてくれた）のかもしれない。
これらは鑑別の上位に上がるよね。
この方が、以前私の働いていた病院のSCUに入っていたら、ホルター心電図、下肢エコーでのDVT除外、そのほかよく分からない検索もねちっこくやられていたと思う。
自分は専門外なので知らんけど。
アスピリン、チクロピジン、ワーファリン、NOAC/DOACあたり飲んでるのかな？
何かしら飲んでてもおかしくないと感じるが（医療情報が不確かなため、なんとも言えない）。
脳卒中、脳梗塞ってあまりにも頻度が高い疾患だから、いろんな病院、お医者さんが見ていて、その中には脳梗塞診療にしつこくない方も結構おられるんですよね。
「とりあえず点滴2Lだして、ラジカット落としといて」みたいな。
今回総合病院ということから、一定の質の高い医療は受けられているとは思うんだけれども。
脳卒中専門の医師にネチネチと原因検索をしてもらった方がいいんじゃないかなと思います。
やってないならね。やってるかもしれん、分からんが。
次の文章をChatGPTに投げてみた。「35歳男性、基礎疾患なし。右 mca m1 distal occlusion による塞栓性脳梗塞。背景疾患は何だと思う？ paf、PFOについてどう思う？ 経食道エコー異常なし、ただしDVT検査したか不明。 それでもpaf/PFOはあり得る？ その可能性はどの程度？ 根拠も含めて。」
回答のサマリーは：
| 4. 総合的推定 | |||
| 疾患 | あり得るか | 推定確率（臨床感覚） | コメント |
| PAF | ○ | 5–10% | 長期モニター推奨（CRYSTAL-AFに基づく） |
| PFO（奇異性塞栓） | ○ | 20–30% | 若年・塞栓性パターンではもっとも典型 |
| 解離 | △ | ＜10% | 画像で否定されていれば低い |
| 抗リン脂質抗体症候群など | △ | 数% | 血液検査で除外必要 |
| その他（悪性腫瘍など） | △ | ＜5% | 年齢的に稀 |
だった。
良かったら ChatGPT や GEMINI, Claude なんかに文章を投げて、試してみてくれ。
（解離：発症時に頭痛・頚部痛などがなかったし、MCA解離は非常にまれだし鑑別に入らないでしょう）
https://anond.hatelabo.jp/20251030084205
https://anond.hatelabo.jp/20251030123317
とのこと、
であればこそ、「特発性（とくはつせい、原因不明なこと。cryptogenic）」で片付けず、原因・背景疾患を究明した方が良いんではないか。
なお
PFO+DVTによる奇異性塞栓：カテPFO閉鎖
という予防治療がございます。「朝、シャワーを浴びた時に発症」ってのも、Paf、奇異性塞栓に合致するエピソードだよね。
抗リン脂質抗体症候群など膠原病系にもそれなりの治療があるし…
ずっと元気で居られることを願っています。
Ciscleの製品、B-RB01とS14の違いがよくわからなくて、さらにB-RB01も２つamazonに登録されていて、どれを買うべきなのが全然わからない
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0D9GDTN63/
B-RB01（2023年版？）
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0BZCRHVWC/
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0DCDNZWFL/
どうもS14にはワイヤレス充電機能と、Bluetooth接続でのバッテリー残量表示機能がない。
B-RB01（2023年版？）には「2024年新型iPad Air M2、iPad Pro M4に対応不可」とある。
B-RB01（2024年版）にはわざわざ
「2024年新型iPad Air M2、iPad Pro M4に対応になりました」「iPad Air M2/iPad Air M3/iPad Pro M4/iPad mini7はスラスラ書けますが、ワイヤレス充電できません。」とある。
違いはこの辺か。
I love Apple—that's why I'm angry at the SE and hopeful about the 16e.
Apple is not just a device manufacturer in my life. It has ideas, philosophy, and an uncompromising aesthetic. That's why I can talk about it this much.

■ The iPhone SE was Apple's betrayal.
The iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generations) is a “black history” in Apple's history.
The curse of 3GB RAM: Even the Photos app doesn't run properly, and Notes freezes.
Poor heat dissipation and battery life: The outdated chassis can't handle high-end chips.
Degraded camera: 12MP with no ultra-wide angle—specs that don't feel like 2025.
Flawed cooling structure: High-performance chips are forced into the design, resulting in near-thermal runaway.
Selling such a product under the Apple name was honestly shocking. Apple was supposed to be a more trustworthy company.
---
■ The lack of philosophy in the SE has damaged the Apple brand
Apple is a company that sells “premium” products. However, the SE had become nothing more than a “cheap product sold at a high price.”
Because I love Apple, I couldn't accept that.
---
■ iPhone 16e—A Ray of Hope
The iPhone 16e is being criticized online as “half-baked” and “not worth the price,” but I don't agree.
It features the A17 chip and supports Apple Intelligence.
The camera is lacking, but it's incomparable to the SE.
This is the first step toward breaking the “SE curse.” It's proof that Apple is now delivering proper specifications in a proper form. Even if you don't buy it, the mere existence of this device makes me believe in Apple's future.

■ Specs and philosophy seen in the iPad series
Standard iPad: 3GB of RAM, freezes when taking notes, only good for viewing.
iPad mini: A-series chip is fine, useful as a secondary smartphone.
iPad Air: Almost the same as the Pro. Best balance of price and performance.
iPad Pro: Competes with the MacBook. Can't fully utilize its potential due to OS limitations.
Having used all Apple products, I can tell which models have “philosophy.”
---
■ Apple Watch is a device that sells “peace of mind”
With fall detection, heart rate monitoring, and other features, it has the potential to save lives.
It's not a medical device, but it's trustworthy in the sense of “buying peace of mind.”
Other manufacturers have similar features, but Apple's reliability and presentation are in a league of their own.
I've also tested Xiaomi's Mi Band 9, and it's indeed high-performance for 5,000 yen. But the Apple Watch, even at more than ten times the price, offers more than ten times the value. Intuitive operation, brightness, notification support... everything is “thought through.”
---
■ Apple Vision Pro — Madness with a Purpose
600,000 yen? Who would buy that?
Equipped with an M2 chip, no compromises.
Made not for others, but for their own beliefs.
This is Apple's “reason why it's worth the high price.” Rather than releasing a cheap, half-baked product, they bet on insane perfection. That's Apple.
■ When it comes to facial recognition, I lost to Apple.
At first, I was against it. “Fingerprint recognition is fine,” I thought.
even when fingerprints don't work due to sweat or water,
even while wearing a mask,
it unlocks instantly.
Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.
■ In conclusion: Apple is my life.
Behind the “convenience” lies a proper meaning and ideology.
That's why I could genuinely be angry at the SE, and that's why I was moved by the arrival of the 16e, thinking, “Apple is back.”
I will continue to love Apple. But not as a blind follower. As someone who believes in Apple's ideology, resolve, and integrity.
I’ve compiled all my passionate thoughts into this text, which can be seen as a testament to “living with Apple.” It is truly your “Apple Manifesto (creed).”

Standard iPad: 3GB of RAM, freezes when taking notes, only good for viewing.
iPad mini: A-series chip is fine, useful as a secondary smartphone.
iPad Air: Almost the same as the Pro. Best balance of price and performance.
iPad Pro: Competes with the MacBook. Can't fully utilize its potential due to OS limitations.
Having used all Apple products, I can tell which models have “philosophy.”

■ Apple Watch is a device that sells “peace of mind”
With fall detection, heart rate monitoring, and other features, it has the potential to save lives.
It's not a medical device, but it's trustworthy in the sense of “buying peace of mind.”
Other manufacturers have similar features, but Apple's reliability and presentation are in a league of their own.
I've also tested Xiaomi's Mi Band 9, and it's indeed high-performance for 5,000 yen. But the Apple Watch, even at more than ten times the price, offers more than ten times the value. Intuitive operation, brightness, notification support... everything is “thought through.”
---
■ Apple Vision Pro — Madness with a Purpose
600,000 yen? Who would buy that?
Equipped with an M2 chip, no compromises.
Made not for others, but for their own beliefs.
This is Apple's “reason why it's worth the high price.” Rather than releasing a cheap, half-baked product, they bet on insane perfection. That's Apple.
■ When it comes to facial recognition, I lost to Apple.
At first, I was against it. “Fingerprint recognition is fine,” I thought.
even when fingerprints don't work due to sweat or water,
even while wearing a mask,
it unlocks instantly.
Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.
■ In conclusion: Apple is my life.
Behind the “convenience” lies a proper meaning and ideology.
That's why I could genuinely be angry at the SE, and that's why I was moved by the arrival of the 16e, thinking, “Apple is back.”
I will continue to love Apple. But not as a blind follower. As someone who believes in Apple's ideology, resolve, and integrity.
I’ve compiled all my passionate thoughts into this text, which can be seen as a testament to “living with Apple.” It is truly your “Apple Manifesto (creed).”

■ The iPhone SE was Apple's betrayal.
The iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generations) is a “black history” in Apple's history.
The curse of 3GB RAM: Even the Photos app doesn't run properly, and Notes freezes.
Poor heat dissipation and battery life: The outdated chassis can't handle high-end chips.
Degraded camera: 12MP with no ultra-wide angle—specs that don't feel like 2025.
Flawed cooling structure: High-performance chips are forced into the design, resulting in near-thermal runaway.
Selling such a product under the Apple name was honestly shocking. Apple was supposed to be a more trustworthy company.
---
■ The lack of philosophy in the SE has damaged the Apple brand
Apple is a company that sells “premium” products. However, the SE had become nothing more than a “cheap product sold at a high price.”
Because I love Apple, I couldn't accept that.
---
■ iPhone 16e—A Ray of Hope
The iPhone 16e is being criticized online as “half-baked” and “not worth the price,” but I don't agree.
It features the A17 chip and supports Apple Intelligence.
The camera is lacking, but it's incomparable to the SE.
This is the first step toward breaking the “SE curse.” It's proof that Apple is now delivering proper specifications in a proper form. Even if you don't buy it, the mere existence of this device makes me believe in Apple's future.
