Is this MSI Creator A16 AI+ worth getting?

Is this MSI Creator A16 AI+ worth getting?

I’ve been looking around for a 4k resolution laptop with AMD processors and a decent GPU. Just want to know whether this is worth getting because everything is there all in one. Also, I’ll be using it as a desktop replacement and 1-2 hours worth of college classes per day.

Apple Virtualization Framework missing battery reporting (VMs always think it’s on AC)

Recently, I submitted feedback to Apple about this, but currently VMs on Apple Silicon (UTM, VMware, etc.) don’t get host battery info.

Guest OS from virtual machines in general always thinks it’s plugged into AC:

•	No battery percentage visible in VM

•	No power-saving behavior triggered

•	Potentially higher battery drain on MacBooks

This seems like Apple isn’t exposing a virtual ACPI battery device through the Hypervisor/Virtualization Framework.

Am I the only one who runs into this issue for virtualization? It seems to drain my MacBook battery by a lot.

Does anyone know whether the Lenovo IdeaPad 5a Pro will be released in the USA?

I recently heard about the Intel version rolling out in the USA however, I’m curious whether the AMD variant will be released in the USA as AMD processors seem to have better efficiency compared to Intel however, I’m not sure if that’s the case but I’m looking forward for its release if it will ever be in the US market as I want to upgrade from my 2024 Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i.
