My iMac is currently downloading macOS Sequoia. I'm scared.

On one hand, security updates, the new iMessage app, Game Porting Toolkit, etc. are all fun new things I'm looking forward to.

On the other hand, since my Mac is an ARM64 device, I'm gonna get that Apple Intelligence bloatware shoved onto my computer. Also, big macOS updates are notorious for breaking shit, so if even a single one of my apps doesn't work, I'm gonna cry.

question for fellow gifmakers who use a macbook: what software are you using to screencap 1080p files now that the older version of mpv (that doesn't duplicate/skip frames) is no longer compatible with macos sonoma?

OG Maco Dead At 32 Spent Weeks In Hospital With Gunshot Wound

I spent too much time taking these photos to not share them

The last two were meant for a family photo in game, wish i took a screenshot of that one as well.

Somehow those two managed to get twins twice, gladly they live with the grandparents so the household didn't go to hell.

Also i deleted the last post to not give the person more attention, they deleted the post, then made another one about how they gave me dysphoria and calling me stuff (phrased as "i can't wait for another chance to do it", you know, plausible deniability and all), but that post got deleted as well, hope that ends there.

Which devices are affected?

The macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 update is necessary for all Macs running on Apple Silicon. This includes:

iMac Pros released since 2017

iMacs released since 2019

MacBook Pros released since 2018

Mac Minis released since 2018

Mac Pros released since 2019.

The update also supports several Intel-powered Macs released from 2017 onwards.

How to update your Mac

To update to macOS 15.1.1:

Go to System Settings/General/Software Update and click “Update Now” .

On older Macs, go to System Preferences and click “Software Update” .

Other Apple devices

Apple has also released updates for iOS, iPadOS, visionOS, and Safari to address these vulnerabilities. These updates are available for a wide range of iPhones and iPads .

Importance of updating

These are just two of four zero-day vulnerabilities Apple has addressed this year. Another vulnerability was demonstrated at the Pwn2Own Vancouver hacking competition (CVE-2024–27834), and the remaining three were patched earlier in the year. The sources underscore the critical importance of updating all your Apple devices promptly to protect yourself from these and other potential threats.

It seems that Zorin OS 17 finally fixed compatibility issues with a third-party Cirrus Audio driver that caused certain MacBook models to have no audio, so now my mid-2017 MacBook Pro 13-inch can have a modern, updating, OS that gets new features and active development.

Apple sold this laptop, new, until 2019 (which is when I bought mine, none-the-wiser), and they discontinued support in 2023 with the release of macOS Sonoma 14. I'll be damned if I let a 4-year-old laptop get turned into eWaste, though.

I had previously wiped the SSD and installed Windows 11 because of the aforementioned issues with the audio drivers. Now that I can have audio, though, this computer lives on as Linux machine, as it's 2011 15-inch counterpart does.

Fix Microsoft Office Showing "Upgrade Required" in AutoUpdate

Yes, the Office 2019 apps were all working correctly and no data lost. Even with this assurance, you could expose yourself to serious and potentially security risks if you do not upgrade to Office 2021. Also, see…
