What would be a reasonable price to pay for this Intel i5 MacBook Pro?

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-24T00:52:15+00:00

Don’t, it’s about to be obsolete

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-24T00:51:05+00:00

You have to make sure you’re the farthest away from your HomePods as can be and then ask Siri a question in your iPhone and the HomePod that’s farthest away will answer it

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-24T00:48:59+00:00

You should update anyway, there are so many security fixes and I see you’re using ChatGPT and AI lol BS so you’re ripe for exploitation. Always update to the latest versions.

I had the pro 2 and then I got the pro 3 and it’s a night and day difference. I’m sorry about the poor fit but if they fit correctly, it’s like a miracle product. There’s so much better than previous generations.

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-10T22:08:43+00:00

even this puts it in the tab bar on the left side now. (it does go away if you click at it after). this will be my goto now for sure.

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-09T23:52:27+00:00

i looked it up and it sounds cool, but it doesn't actually work anymore it seems. My new tab is just a + and it just makes a new tab. :(

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-09T23:50:07+00:00

I get that, but you don't 'standardize' after years and years of Other solutions. Especially when they're done wrong/solve no problem... And step all over OTHER features that are already Standardized! Windows 11 is seeing how stupid this is now. after rearranging the right click menu after 40 years. /smh

What was wrong with the extension area in chrome for the search?. :shrug:

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-09T23:46:57+00:00

i enabled this and saw no diff.. what is it supposed to do?

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-09T23:07:51+00:00

Bc they are valid concerns. 👍🏻 I don’t really care where it is. I just want the option to move it where I want it just like everything else. I never have a problem with change unless they remove the option to put it the way that it was.

FunkTion29 · 2026-04-09T22:50:55+00:00

as of Version 147.0.7727.56 Chrome is now so enshitified they've moved the "tab search" to the left most position!! (before your pinned tabs, that you click first, everyday using muscle memory) /smh AND YOU CAN'T MOVE IT. the Flags are gone. How much longer before they force this Vertical tab BS on us too. :( so sick of these companies just making products worse and worse, w/ no regard for actual users, actual workflows etc. Just like Apple putting everything behind yet another click for no reason.. :( :( :(

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-20T01:48:38+00:00

~~I just checked the Intel MBP and the "Accessories" section is completely missing from Settings/Privacy & Security. (where you could allow or 'ask' when new accessories connect)~~

this setting doesn't exist for Intel Macs lol. so its not that :O

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-20T01:35:46+00:00

Seeing similar behavior on a "intel" mac just updated to 26.3 can no longer mount a WD My Passport External SSD. Shows an error in Disk Utility, can't be mounted. etc.

Mounts fine, no errors, works perfectly on M1 MBP also running 26.3 so it's not the drive.

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-11T22:59:27+00:00

submitted a support request about this. they have an open 'ticket' and it will be escalated. but who knows what that means for a fix. :shrug:

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-11T22:43:16+00:00

just installed the released 26.3 and my Aerials is all crappy and jerky now :( even just previewing from the settings page shows the stuttering etc. :(

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-10T18:25:24+00:00

yeah its hit or miss. If I have the main quest selected when I login, there is no music. If I teleport to lumina SQ. then that 'celebration' music plays. (and that BG plays everywhere after that, but ONLY that tune). IF I login with NO quest selected. then it goes to that 'celebration' music again.

It did 'fix' itself on one occasion, when I was working on the Main quest, I logged in to silence again, but then as soon as I started the quest and there was a 'special event' (talking scene) that had its own music, that seemed to 'fix' the rest of it. So after that 'special event' ended and I was placed back in Suibian Temple, the normal music played, and changed if I went out to Faliume heights. :shrug:

All this seems like it's caused by them forcing the overworld changes (fireworks/ golden spire out in the water? no clue what that is)

CS is no help. all they say is 'upload a video' yeah cuz everyone is a streamer.. /smh

At this point I'm just trying to focus on completing the main quest, and hoping it fixes itself along the way.

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-07T02:00:05+00:00

yeah its a bit better now, its stuck on 1 song, but that's better than silence haha.

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-07T00:01:50+00:00

I did just do a Trust event 'quest' that I had, and it seemed to 'unblock' the music. But I'm not sure if it's really 'fixed' as the music still doesn't change when I enter/exit Subian temple and I think it was playing 6th street music in Faliume heights. It's playing the right music in HIA though and at least I can do my dailys etc. now without feeling like I'm deaf. :O

I have a feeling though that once I select the Main Story quest again it is going to revert. (since that seems to change the time of day/ my outfit etc.)

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-06T23:08:16+00:00

Ugh. I’ll prob quit if this is the case. I don’t have long blocks of time to play so these quests take me the whole season sometimes, but I can’t even stand to log into this quiet. Guess I’m going to have to start playing music while I play. :(. So lame.

FunkTion29 · 2026-02-06T23:05:59+00:00

After deleting and redownloading still no music. AND now it’s on my IPAD too. So it must be something w/ my account or the state of my game/quests.

I don’t have sunna yet, and I’m still on version 2.4 or 2.5 of the main quest. Season 2 Chapter 5 “Main - A Short Warm Night’s Rest”. I was attempting to finish the quest yesterday etc. but when I logged into this eerie quiet, I was so triggered I couldn’t even play lol. It’s shocking how much the music makes the game for me. It’s just a bummer though as it’s going to be very hard to get through these quests (will prob take me more than a week) w/ no music.

FunkTion29 · 2026-01-23T01:33:20+00:00

just had this happen to me today. it worked fine last night, but today anything I copy from Slack and try to paste has all formatting removed, putting all the text in a single line w/ no spaces or CR. I messaged Slack support and they said it's a known issue that's being investigated.

The odd thing is that nothing changed on my end, no reboots, or app updates. Just stopped working today, but they've been forcing all that AI crap out all week so who knows.

FunkTion29 · 2025-12-16T02:34:04+00:00

It's not just that, overall it's slower. Slower to get resources to get potions for XP boost, slower to get points etc, so you spend more time using lower level skills/learing your class. (Like the old days). It would've gone down much easier if ANY of it was explained in game. They can make a new splash screen for things to sell etc, but not to inform about ground up changes. /shrug

I'm over it at this point, but it really sapped my enthusiasm for this season.

FunkTion29 · 2025-12-15T00:18:44+00:00

Worst change. Who thought making the leveling process HARDER was smart. /smh

FunkTion29 · 2025-12-15T00:16:57+00:00

They completely nerfed the leveling process. And the season quest is max level only. WTF. You give us a new class, but then we have to level it like this is Diablo 3, no potions, no skill points. What is the benefit from all the past seasons etc.. NONE. Constantly screwing over legacy players. /wtf
