@ellane @dhrystone What Bartender does should really be built into #macOS. It’s even more critical since #Apple reduced the useable size of the menu bar on #MacBooks by adding the notch.

@ShadowJonathan

Wait till you hear about #Macbooks etc.

#Apple hates #repairs

@JessiCum @ubuntu @bradlinder @stdevel

#Apple at least has an #OS worth the #suffering!

Nobody buy #MacBooks for #Specs - that's just a lie by #Fanboys.

People buy it because #macOS is the least-painful option to use #creative #CCSS like the stuff that #Adobe, #Avid, #BlackmagicDesign and mamy more produce.

It's literally called #finalcutOS for a reason, because that shit works - just like #accessibility does: Nobody can touch Apple's macOS & #iOS on that front!

The only thing that's 'better' in the new #MacBooks is perhaps the M2 compared to my M1 but that's it.. :apple_inc:

If you upgrade from an older model (Intel) I guess it should be worth it but otherwise..

:blobcatgiggle: Sorry, Apple but adding some words like "super" and "ultra" and "gigatronultramegatron" doesn't do a thing for me :eeveecoffee:

#WWDC

@marcan imagine how mich better performamce and battery will be once decoding in hardware is being supported with something like a VAAPI driver...

Either way, the most power-consuming part on all #ARM64-#MacBooks is the screen by a long shot...

1/2 Epic fail in #Currys #Tralee last week. Specs of #Macbooks not displayed on shelf. Asked salesperson to confirm whether M1 or M2. Said person unlocked session on one, to a screen full of running apps and waiting prompts (script kiddies playing around with OSA). Incapable of shutting them down without rebooting, so showed them how. Then showed them how to find the sysinfo. Salesperson admitted they knew nothing about macOS. 🤦‍♂️

I’m gonna say it: The trackpad on the current generations of #MacBooks and #MacBookPros are TOO LARGE.

Even with palm rejection, I experience daily issues with extraneous “fingers” being detected, either because my opposite palm is detected as a finger, or because the ring/pinky finger on the same hand is hovering too close to the corner.

Looking at the wear/dirt marks on the trackpad, I hardly use the area beyond the width of the space bar anyway.

Alle neuen #MacBooks sollen bereits mit M3-Chip ausgestattet sein

Neben der nächsten Generation des Macbook Air dürfte auch ein neues Macbook Pro geplant sein

#Chrome auf #MacBooks!
Google verspricht Dauerlauf auf M2-Maschinen!
„Google versucht schon seit Jahren, seinen als Stromverfresser verschrienen Browser Chrome auf dem Mac zu bändigen!“

„Das Chrome-Team habe "eine Tonne von Optimierungen" in der aktuellen Version (110.0.5481.177) vorgenommen.“

„Performance-Verbesserungen soll es laut dem Chrome-Team zudem nicht nur auf der allerneusten Hardware geben, sondern auch auf älteren Maschinen.“

🤓Versprochen ist versprochen…

Microsoft is Forcing me to Buy #MacBooks - Windows Modern Standby needs fixing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHKKcd3sx2c

So I read this comment on Hacker News, where they said that even Microsoft employees are being given #MacBooks. And I started to think about like, if #Microsoft, #IBM, #Google, all these companies are just defaulting to #Apple, then no wonder Windows, Android, ChromeOS and so on are lagging behind. This, shockingly isn’t really about accessibility, where Windows still, for now, rules in simplicity of things like virtual buffers on the web, and utilities for #blind people. But even on #Mac, blind coders are making stuff, like #TweeseCake, and several #Hammerspoon scripts to make things better. I think, as M-series Macs keep doing so well, these tools are only going to grow, VoiceOver may get even faster as speech refactoring continues, and hopefully the #accessibility stack continues to be optimized to take up less RAM or CPU or whatever causes Safari to go unresponsive. Like, I can’t describe what exactly is happening here, with Apple just… Subverting every other company. But even if they just keep the current accessibility at this point, where yeah there are bugs, but leaning on iOS for stuff like audio charts and image descriptions, I think one day they may be able to become the dominant OS even for blind people. They just have to keep pushing forward and making the best of a good 20 years of built-up stuff.

It's almost like there's a reason to separate the web browser from the core of the OS. From @BleepingComputer: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/apple-fixes-new-webkit-zero-day-exploited-to-hack-iphones-macs/
