macOS Sequoia

And then Apple slips in some kak on the final release relating to the network stack so neither Crowdstrike nor Cloudflare works and now we need to figure out a way to block it.
 
Just updated my M1 MBA to Sequoia and so far so good, feels a little smoother, will probably begin to notice a few new things as I go.
I am not a "power user" when it comes to my laptops, I usually work on MS Excel, PowerPoint and then online digital marketing platforms (Meta for Business, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Wordpress etc...) so use Safari and Chrome quite a lot, so I will have to force myself to use my machine more to see what's new/changed here and there when I am not on my work laptop.
 
The mirroring doesn’t seem to work when you are using said phone as personal hotspot.

I really like the new ‘ad zap’ feature in Safari
 
I miss the days when OS updates were about performance. For example going from 16bit to 16bit with 32bit extensions to 32bit to 64. Or going from the real mode of Win 3.0 to 386 enhanced mode of 3.1 or the co-operative multitasking of Windows 3.11 and the quasi co-operative multitasking of Win 95 to proper pre-emptive multitasking of OS/2 or Windows NT/2K/XP. Even Mac OSX had similar performance upgrades, chiefly memory compression, can't remember if it was Snow Leopard which introduced that or not. But now it's mostly features you can get with add on applications and bling.

I remember how a 386 running 95 was more responsive when accessing the disk than a Pentium 90Mhz when doing the same but on 3.11.

Missed MacOS Big Sur and the move to ARM?

iPhone mirroring is great. You even get phone notifications on your Mac and when you click it it opens the app in the app on your phone. Awesome stuff.

I saw it in the Apple presentation, I read about it on here…but still, to see it for myself is amazing.

And there is literally no lag or delay, things happen instantly. I’m blown away.

And it’s a feature I will actually use and appreciate.
 
Seemed to have bricked my bluetooth with my Keychron K8. Reset the board, tried syncing again - nothing. Picks it up but refuses to connect. Been trying for two days.
Not sure if anyone else has any issues with this and Bluetooth devices? My Logitech Master Mouse works, but sometimes I need to restart for the side scroll button to work again. I use it for volume, and it won't work sometimes on startup.
Weird.
