Hey, cool thing! Personal apps are awesome, and I really enjoyed your story.

I hadn't seen you mention OBD in this article, which is built in to most cars from the past 25 years.

If your shared car has it, you could put one of those Bluetooth LE readers in the port, and have copies of your app connect to the BLE signal on "vehicle return" to calculate milegae driven and maybe more, depending on what the car reports!

Might be worth playing around with, either way congrats on your cool thing

However, you have chosen to directly attack the above commenter based on your own views. This is tasteless, loaded, and detracts from your point.

I previously commented a solution to another problem, but it assists here too:

This command will make your MacBook hibernate when lid is closed or the laptop sleeps, so RAM is written to disk and the system powers down. The downside is that it does increase the amount of time it takes to resume.

A nice side benefit though, is that fingerprint is not accepted on first unlock, I believe secrets are still encrypted at this stage similar to cold boot. A fingerprint still unlocks from screensaver normally, as long as the system does not sleep (and therefore hibernate)

My my, what a warm welcome to competitors.

When resuming from hibernation I’m not prompted for credentials until the system has resumed, so I have to imagine the disk remains decrypted, i.e. same behavior as sleep.

I've worked around this problem on each mac laptop I've owned over the years by configuring "hibernate on lid close."

When I open the lid of the mac it takes maybe 20-30 seconds to resume. I consider this a small price to pay in exchange for reliable sleep and less battery drain with the lid closed.

If you want to try this, run in the terminal:

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 25

If you don't like it, you can restore defaults with:

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3
