  • My first experience after updating my work MacBook today was my external monitor breaking 🙃 I spent quite a bit of time trying to diagnose this before finding out it’s a semi-known bug if coming from a dock. Thankfully I use a Pro so I have one last USB port to spare to make up for this annoying bug.

    Pretty annoying going from working to not after an update. I thought it was permissions or something else at first.

    But I updated my personal MacBook yesterday and haven’t noticed a ton of differences. I like the more shiny, 3D look to the window icons and more glass customization. I like having more glass and it’ll be nice for others who don’t want it to tone down the glass look. The icons are different but I can’t put my finger what changed. They just seem a bit darker like shaded.

    I hate the new Macintosh HD icon. What is it supposed to be? It used to actually resemble a hard drive. I’m probably alone because I doubt many others have this on their desktop like I do.




  • I wonder what the speed of the Micro SD slot will be at. Same as Steam Deck? Because my SD card slot is noticeably slow when downloading and updating games. I reserve it exclusively for retro emulation which still suffers on some Xbox/PS2 titles and newer. I had to move some Xbox 360 and PS3 games to SSD to get some better performance. It wasn’t much, but improved a bit.

    What would be even nicer is the ability to upgrade the SSD like the Deck. Even if it’s 2230 which is pricier. I think it was confirmed they are soldered on?
