Why you should buy the Apple Mac mini M2

We tagged the Apple Mac mini M2 Pro as “the best mini computer ever” in our review of the machine, which also sits on top of our list of the best mini PCs. The impressive performance also applies to the Apple Mac mini M2, and with one of our recommended configurations of an eight-core CPU, a 10-core GPU, and 16GB of RAM, the mini computer will be able to keep up with most of your daily activities. It won’t have any trouble multitasking between apps, and it will be powerful enough to smoothly run Final Cut Pro and Xcode, among other software — all within such a compact size.

To connect the Apple Mac mini M2 to your monitor, internet, and other devices, it features two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB-A ports, an HDMI port, an Ethernet port, and a headphone jack. However, even with a complete setup and hours of usage, the Apple Mac mini M2 remains quiet and cool, so you don’t have to worry that it won’t be able to last through long working days.

If you want a mini PC, you can’t go wrong with the Apple Mac mini M2, especially if you’re able to take advantage of the $130 in savings that’s offered by B&H Photo Video. You’ll only have to pay $869 for this configuration with the eight-core CPU, 10-core GPU, and 16GB of RAM, instead of the sticker price of $999. You need to be quick though, as the stocks that are up for sale are limited. The price of the Apple Mac mini M2 may be back to normal sooner than you think, so you have to complete your transaction to secure your own immediately.

Humans actually prefer talking to an AI than a support person, says gas giant as it cuts jobs
British Gas cuts 1,300 support jobs as its CEO points to changing customer habits
Executive, Person, Electronics

Centrica, owner of British Gas, is cutting 1,300 call centre jobs, and its chief executive says changing customer behaviour is the main reason. The company plans to remove 800 roles as part of a “targeted deployment of AI tools,” on top of the 500 cuts announced last month. Customer service teams in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Leicester, Stockport, and Leeds will be affected over the next two years.

Some positions will disappear when employees leave and are not replaced, while the remaining cuts will come through redundancies. Trade unions have warned that Centrica’s AI investment will hand hundreds of human jobs to chatbots.
