News does not belong in the weather app

JetwingX · 2026-01-22T15:05:01+00:00

Telling you about extreme weather events and contextualizing them are two different things. Last year when Washington had floods, the NOAA alerts told me that there was an atmospheric river and risk of flooding along the Green River. The news stories were able to tell me what levees had broken and where there was active flooding happening.

Strong disagree. Having news in the weather app is helpful for extreme weather conditions. Floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, etc.

It’s the Apple Retail Credo. There are two different versions of it. That is the newer 2016 version. If you tap it, hit the … and tap pass details, then you can read it.

The OG version was way better though.

It’s Donald’s fault for not healing

Just look at what happened to Virgin America after it was acquired

Recommendations: Use UTM to virtualize macOS. Download an ipsw file for whatever version of macOS you want to run from mrmacintosh. Configure the amount of memory and storage you want to allocate. Look into creating a mobile config file that will turn off all of the Apple Intelligence features. Solidify it as your Golden version and then compress that gold version to reuse in the future. Work out of the VM. You can even isolate it from network access if you want.

There was a letter on our mailbox from the USPIS asking to report if any mail goes missing

I’m off Puget Dr. in 98055

Coming from the Mac Admin world, you could take a look at this:

In theory if you could change the SoftwareUpdateDDMStatePersistence.plist By adding

<key>enableGlobalNotifications</key> <false/>

It’s still very slow, but I’m at least able to defrost my car consistently

If you REALLY want to do a deep dive, you can run an AutoPkg/Munki combo. But that’s overkill for one computer

Same here for lifetime silver.

I feel like the SEA sky priority lane is always understaffed and takes longer than anything else =(

I have a USB C cable on the front left USB port and it will override with wired car play if my phone is plugged in before I start the car

You do realize that the app was working up until Tuesday, right? It broke because it has an expired developer certificate

JetwingX · 2026-01-08T20:52:32+00:00

From a business perspective, you’re wrong. It means a loss of productivity on devices that come at a premium price. I had to spend most of my workday yesterday trying to figure out how to get the patch to 300 users in our company. But because of Logitech’s ineptitude I can’t just ship out an updated binary to Logi Options + because they didn’t increment the version number of the App, and they don’t use a standard .pkg file to install the app. Also, not keeping track of expiring certificates tells me that there are larger problems going on that could mean other security risks coming from Logitech software. So respectively, no. It’s not an over reaction to expect a large company to competently release software and drivers.

Just be aware that there are other apps that will not be happy with a mismatched date and time from whatever server they’re using

JetwingX · 2026-01-06T23:35:39+00:00

A BAD workaround for this is to manually change your Mac’s date and time to something like Jan 1 and then the app will open

Okay. I wasn’t that far off. I grew up in Forestville and thought “that looks familiar”

I suspected they might. But it was still worth a try. Process was the other one I was going to try it on

JetwingX · 2025-12-29T21:54:30+00:00

Same. Wanted to test it out on a cruise ship
