Of course, but that works only if the files are already in the same partition. A dmg is a virtual image, even if it's stored in the same partition, once mounted it acts like another partition.
Tahoe can't ramp up the GPU frequency fast enough, and many animation like the QuickLook one often run at less than 30 fps. So much fun.
Games are an almost perfect type of software to be run in a sandbox. The question is, why aren't they already run in a sandbox?
Long press is a shortcut, the longer way is to click on the icon beside the url and tap/click the enormous "reader mode" button.
TCC is a leaky shoot at limiting non-sandboxed apps permissions. The actual macOS sandbox is a different thing.
I would say that TCC is working as intended, unfortunately, with many obscure behaviors to avoid breaking existing apps.
It's even more unfortunate that a lot of apps that could be easily sandboxed aren't.
TCC is a different thing. Sandboxed apps work differently and won't need those TCC dialogs.
Safari, or better, macOS and iOS include a software AV1 decoder (libdav1d), but it's used only to decode avif, and to generate file previews in Finder.
It's missing the double click on a number feature from minesweeper.
To align the window corner radius to the window close/minimize/resize buttons distance from the edge of the window.
Because that's by design. The windows are meant to have different corner radius, they even explained it at WWDC. Then people forgot and rediscovered it again, like it was some new thing.
I am not saying that it's a good idea to have different corner radius, just that it's nothing new.
It broke some NSWindow styles: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/814798
Every device compatible with the Matter standard[1] can be used with Apple Home (and with every other solution that supports Matter, like Google and Amazon ones), so almost everything is compatible with everything out there.
It should be based on the app size, so maybe developers will stop shipping apps with a single feature and one button that takes 700 MB because of random bloated third-party SDKs that aren't even used.
All I read about is that it's less hardware friendly than H.264 and HEVC, and they were all complaining about it. AV2 should be better in this regard.
Where did you read that it was designed to make creating an hardware decoder easier?
I assume there is a reason for leaving out Windows Me.
web.whatsapp.com is still going to use more RAM than the old native version.
The macOS app is the iOS app running on macOS thanks to Catalyst, hopefully they won't replace it with that Electron/WebViewOfTheDay crap.
Nowadays it's all AppKit/UIKit/SwiftUI. It's no longer a webview.
DVD-Video subtitles are often only bitmaps, and the AppleTV can handle only text subtitles. HandBrake can't OCR bitmaps at the moment.
But there is already a "1-button magicbrake" mode, or maybe two buttons:
1. Open a file; 2. Click the start button in the toolbar.
Paralles x86_64 emulation doesn't depend on Rosetta.
Yup, just right in the upper half of the page there is a big search box and an "sort by" popup button.
Game developers make most of the money shortly after a game release, so having a 15 years old game not working anymore shouldn't make much difference in term of revenues.
Anyway, the whole situation was quite bad. Many games were still 32-bit, even if macOS itself had been mainly 64-bit for almost 10 years or more. And Valve didn't help either, the Steam store is full of 64-bit mislabeled as 32-bit. They could have written a simple script to check whether a game is actually 64-bit or not, instead they decided to do nothing and keep their chaos.
The best solution would have been a lightweight VM to run old 32-bit games, nowadays computer are powerful enough to do so.
That wouldn't scale well, something like .av1opusflacwebvtt?
The difference is that you need a Microsoft account to login in your computer. On macOS an Apple account is require for some services, not to manage the computer user login.
Yes, almost everything out there supports at least H.265, H.264, VP9, and AV1 in hardware.
Actually lately iPadOS is the one getting most of its features from macOS. iPadOS 26 introduced a menu bar, just like macOS, and a new windows manager that's just the same as macOS.
As I wrote above, use Accessibility Inspector to inspect the UI.
Actually it does not. It used to, but then was rewritten. The Accessibility Inspector app can be used to see what's the class of the UI elements, if you want to check.
Only if you consider making UI text unreadable an advantage.
