M2 MacBook Air has audio bug, Apple notified. WARNING loud audio at end

3 years ago by octalfudge to c/apple_enthusiast

Attached: 1 video Tested 12.4 and 13.5 on M2 MBA, sounds just as bad, so this has been going on for a *long* time now. M1 MBA does not have this problem, nor does M1 MBP 16". This might be an M2 MBA specific problem. It is very, *very* obvious if you just play a 300Hz sine with any random frequency generator website and crank the volume up. Upgrading to Sonoma now, but I doubt they fixed it... it seems this has *always* been broken on at least the M2 13" MBA. Edit: Still there in Sonoma.

I get that this is a bug, but it kinda sucks that people feel it's all right to act this way. Software is hard and unless you're using a language with zero-overhead iteration you're probably writing your drivers in C and iterating with a for-loop like our ancestors did. Off by one errors are stupidly common and everyone is human.

I mean, fuck mega corporations. This is still cringeworthy.

That being said, it's going to be fun to see quality differences in these operating systems in a few years because, as far as I know, Apple would rather force Swift into the systems-level language space than adopt a memory-safe language today.

Meanwhile Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, etc are all investing heavily in Rust by integrating it into their platforms.
