Apple explique pourquoi il n’y a plus de chargeur inclus avec les Mac et iPad en Europe

L'annonce du nouveau MacBook Pro avec une puce M5 s'accompagne d'une mauvaise surprise pour les habitants de l'Union européenne et du Royaume-Uni : le chargeur est désormais optionnel.

Boqun Feng spoke at Kangrejos 2025 about adding a frequently needed API for Rust drivers that need to handle interrupts: interrupt-aware spinlocks. Most drivers will need to communicate information from interrupt handlers to main driver code, and this exchange is frequently synchronized with the use of spinlocks. While his first attempts ran into problems, Feng's ultimate solution could help prevent bugs in C code as well, by tracking the number of nested scopes that have disabled interrupts. The patch set, which contains work from Feng and Lyude Paul, is still under review.
