Any #Mac / #macOS security experts around?

- external SSD used only for #TimeMachine backups
- Backups are password-protected
- M1 Pro 16-inch #MBP
- OS 13.4.1 Ventura
- Haven't plugged the drive in for 53 days
- Plugged it in just now
- Mac displays a 'trust this drive?' security prompt
- I got worried something broke
- Clicked Yes
- Seems ok, Time Machine backup kicked in

Does that seem normal? Why did macOS ask to trust a drive that has existing, authenticated TM backups?

New workhorse.

OK, members of #tech #mac Mastodon:

Is there any way to keep my custom #icons on my #MBP from changing when the apps update?

I currently use the basic right click → get info to change the icons.

Is there a better way to do this? I can't seem to find one.

I'm painfully aware that the 2016-18 vintage was particularly bad for #MacBook pros, but even so, it's *always* my #MBP that's the problem device in my line-up.

On this one I got a bit giddy in the with the whole apple store experience and bough the most expensive one, so I'm begrudgingly make this one last, despite the lure of the M2 Air.

@cdp1337 Looking at the #Linux GitHub page for my 2016 #MBP it seems like everything would work minus WiFi. Seems like a possibility

I have a 2016 #MBP 3.1ghz quad core and #System76 Gazalle. Seeing that my Mac is slowly become deprecated. I refuse the idea of having to buy a new mac every few years just I order to have a well functioning mac. In the #Linux world the specs of my MBP would make for a good machine. My System76’s performance is spectacular but the build quality and battery life is a total disappointment. Does anyone have any suggestions for a quality laptop for Linux or BSD? Doesn’t have to be a new model.

DHL 好快，比預估提前一天送達👏🏻 #MBP #M2 #Pro

I have a brand spankin new M2 Macbook Pro with 64 (!!) gig of ram, a terabyte of disk, and more horsepower than some third world countries.

But what I keep tearing up over is the actual row of function keys and a real live Escape key. _sniffs_. It's so beautiful...

Ok, another person confirmed it. #dtrace on #m2 max #mbp with Ventura is completely broken.
Feel free to mention existing feedback FB12061147 if someone ends up reporting it as well.

I give up. #Dtrace just doesn't work on #m2 #mbp anymore, does it? The most basic invitations freeze my machine every single time 😒

MacBook Proって、セキュリティワイヤー付けられないんだよね。。。
昔はあったのに、いつからなくなったんだっけ？
#MBP

Da #elgato ja vermutlich noch nicht hier mitliest - weiß da jemand rat? Wenn ich die #HD60+ direct über ein USB-C Kabel anschließe, bekomme ich diese Fehlermeldung. Nehme ich einen Adapter und ein USB-C auf USB-A Kabel - dann geht's. Verrückt. (Mac ist ein MBP '19)

I have a problem with my work #MBP crashing when being connected to a monitor from sleep. I looked at the error report and noticed:

> Darwin Kernel Version 22.3.0: Thu Jan 5 20:17:53 PST 2023; root:xnu-8792.81.2~1/RELEASE_ARM64_T8010

Curious, this is an Intel Mac, why is it saying ARM64…
Turns out it's the #bridgeOS in the #TouchBar that is crashing and it's taking down the entire computer. 😐 So not only is the touch bar user hostile, it's now also leading to panics of the entire machine.

Having a real struggle with my new twin #4k #monitors getting them to be consistently recognised over USB Type-C with my #mbp - is this usual and do I just need to put up with it? Keeps dropping to 30Hz or 1080p…

@multiplex #mbp and #air from 2013 and 2011. Still running strong!
