like u can't do shit gaming wise on it which is the only thing an ampere could potentially do with a dedicated gpu. why don't the m1 macs support external gpus again? no thunderbolt in Linux?

@chfour im not 100% sure but i thinks thunderbolt requires licensing. idk why it wouldn't be backwards compatible with usb4 though. im just Not Sure.

@autumn yeah the thunderbolt Situation is kinda funny. thunderbolt itself is gatekept by intel but usb4 basically equals thunderbolt 4 and thats open to everyone lol so it doesnt Really matter anymore the way i understand it
