Agreed that this downside is not worth the convenience. But, I think iOS 14 provides a great solution to this problem; you can pattern match against the contents of the clipboard without reading the contents. Then you can always read it if it matches.

Excellent point! I remember back when the original Rosetta was discontinued, and I couldn't play WarCraft 3 on my Mac. Haven't played D2 for a couple of years, but very excited by your points that even ARM can't kill this project. If the OS merges between iPad and Mac then maybe even D2 on iPad using OpenDiablo2. Very cool!

Devilution is still alive, AFAIK: https://github.com/diasurgical/devilution

Also, CMD + Arrow Up scrolls to top.

Interested. What UX "features" are you referring to?

Your comment made me remember that multiple Tesla engineers quit and spoke out about the insufficient sensors a couple of years ago: https://www.technologyreview.com/2017/08/25/149475/some-tesl...

Pretty late, came to this post from the post on the exploit unc0ver uses being patched, but Liberty does not work with the app "NemID", which is sort of a 2FA for all banking and public service apps in Denmark. Have yet to find a JB hider that does, and so had to un-jailbreak.

I do not understand why they did this, and I say that as a Catalina user. Jeff Johnson seems to have some thoughts (and a sort-of solution) on it, though: https://lapcatsoftware.com/articles/software-update.html

Read a user somewhere reporting that leaving his iPhone plugged into his Mac caused this problem to occur almost daily. After charging it with a wall charger, and not having it plugged in, the problem went away. After resetting PRAM and SMC too. Hope the issue gets resolved for you someday!

Ah, that makes sense! Good to know!

Ah, didn't see it. Thanks! Would say that it's exceptionally well hidden. "Write now. It's free" is too misleading, imo. At least add "Pricing" in the top menu. Doesn't really sit well.

Very cool! I'm intrigued, and might even use it for my next project. Are you planning on eventually monetizing it, and if so, how?

Any material on these tokens? Sounds cool!

Exactly! Reason why websites such as https://virtualmacosx.com are a thing.

Not disagreeing with that, but DiabloD3 was specifically talking users, not money.

With a 47% market share in the US, I can hardly agree that supporting iOS won’t win you a lot of users.

Sure, yes.

I'm guessing it's for people that want the Google products to be their main desktop office suite. Haven't looked into it, but maybe it can open .docx files etc. directly as the default app for it?

Would love to have a bunch of macros, but I honestly have a hard time imagining the 1400+ situations that are worth automating? Could you maybe provide some obscure examples of yours? That would be pretty cool.

Zoom and other such software allows you to swap the background out during video calls. Don’t know the tech behind it, but I do believe someone posted about it a couple of weeks ago on HN.

Can’t provide a source, but my mother-in-law works as a secretary at a school. Uses her computer 8 hours a day, every day. She has a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, and a USB-C dock that her monitor is plugged into. That’s all she ever has to use at work. At home she has multiple external hard drives with photos and videos on them, these all have USB-C cables, making the USB-A requirement a non-issue, really. She’s never complained about nor missed a port.

She used to have a thicker HP with all the ports, but this one was still plugged into a dock at work, as that was simply the easiest thing to do.

For her, her daily life has not changed at all going from all the ports to two USB-C.

Just an anecdote.

Very interesting. Thanks a lot! Firefox did really well, that’s cool to see.

Fair enough! Thanks anyway, though.

Guesss Xcode on ARM might be a good and necessary step towards ARM MacBooks?

Would love to see how Safari handles your benchmark! I find it pretty fast, but maybe that's just bias because it treats my battery nice.

One doesn’t have to exclude the other.

Can only speak for Denmark, where I'm from, but I'd venture that at least 50% of students have MacBook Pros. This is simply based on personal experience though. I might be way off. This is for the last three years of High School equivalent. University varies a lot depending on your field.

Man! On book 4 of Dune myself, and it's been going a lot more slowly than the first three. About 30% in, is it worth it?

Not true. Force touch works perfectly in iOS 13 on my XS. As does long pressing. It is true though that they had disabled force touch altogether in the iOS 13 beta.

Seems like Karabiner can handle that: https://github.com/pqrs-org/Karabiner-Elements/issues/346
