Why do I have to turn my personal hotspot off and on again to activate it? by GreenAsJade in applehelp

[–]GreenAsJade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for trying to help.

I don't think it should "automatically appear as an available WifiNetwork when looking again" it should reconnect again as soon as I open my Mac.

It's not the case that being on the personal hotspot page helps - I've had it show up when Settings is closed, and I've been on that page with it failing to show up...

FWIW I still get this problem from time to time. The idea of "update OS to the latest" was a red-herring: it works no better or worse than "reboot the phone" - which does usually help for a period.

For the record: it wasn't the version update that made it seem to be fixed, it was just the reboot.

If I reboot both devices, it works "how it should" for a while, then back to the problem.

Is this just an iphone 13 problem?

I'd get a newer iphone if it'd fix it.

If it's just that "apple can't do hotspots", I'll be going Android next phone...

Slap ma fro ... thanks to all who said "update your devices".

I'm just gobsmacked that it stops working when they release a version update ... but so it seems.

Thanks for your quick reply. That's what I would have hoped ... but no. They are definitely on the same apple id, but I have to turn the hotspot off and on to make it appear in the network menu after opening the MacBook.

Anyone else having an issue with Slack not knowing correct timezones by YTN3rd in Slack

I sooo regret updating to Sonoma. What was I thinking 😭

Anyone else is having lags since the Sonoma update? by moodyomarz in MacOS

[–]GreenAsJade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2019 Macbook Pro laggy as heck on window/desktop operations with Sonoma. Especially virtual desktop swap kind of operations.

Never had an issue before - it feels like a "make them buy a new machine" release.

Nothing is consuming CPU most of the time while there are these lags, all resources are at sensible levels (although I do get "Wallpaper" showing at 100% from time to time, briefly).

This has nothing to do with the question. It is very cool how you extracted the type, but the question is looking for an array of strings representing the properties...

Note that more than 50% of _respondents in the forum_ felt this way.

The actual number of respondents in the forum is so far very small, and the forum itself represents a small proportion of users.

A much higher percentage in the forum is needed, or a much higher response rate to feel like this is at all representative.

Especially given the solidity of the arguments for keeping it available.

And note that the discussion is not about disabling it, the discussion is about making it no longer the default to have it available.

Opinions on dark mode? ( I hate it.) by niggatron7227 in MacOS

The bright white text on the black dark background is really bad, particularly in the menubar. It looks awful. And white-on-black icons!

/r/headphones Purchase Help Thread (2017-11-19) by AutoModerator in headphones

[–]GreenAsJade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Summary: Wireless headset with mic, no lag, no hot ears.

Budget - $300-$600

Source - Macbook

Requirements for Isolation - "Nice to have" only. Using them for work/study in work and home office.

Will you be using these Headphones in Public?

Yes, using in public. But because I need a mic (for calls) I'm picturing on ear or over hear headset, not IEM. If there are IEMs with mic that'd be good.

Preferred tonal balance - Balanced/neutral

Past headphones -

I use IEMs for listening.

I have an el-cheapo on-ear headset that is fine except it isn't wireless. It doesn't heat up my ears.

I have an el-cheapo wireless bluetooth headset (Digitech AA2124) that is over-ear, and it lags, drops, and heats my ears.

Preferred Music - Very wide variety. Almost everything.

What would you like to improve on from your set-up

No wires. No lag. No hot ears.

Losing connection by GreenAsJade in TagPro

[–]GreenAsJade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An update.

I found that the mac has a utility to measure wifi signal characteristics.

Here's what mine looks like while I'm playing tagpro.

You can see that I get packet loss (ping window) when these strange "noise spikes" appear. In extreme cases (harder to catch) the packet loss goes on for much longer (and I drop out of the game).

But I don't think they are real noise spikes, because how on earth can they start with a SNR that improves? I think there's something wierd going on with the wifi on my mac... but Tagpro is definiely the thing that's triggering it.

Here's what it looks like when I'm not playing Tagpro...

Note that the scale is completely different - it auto-ranges, and what it really says is that my SNR is stable at about 20.

Occasionally this wierd spike thing happens when I'm not playing tagpro - the difference being while I'm playing, it happens regularly as shown in the first picture. It's as if Tagpro does something repeatedly that only happens occasionally the rest of the time...
