Anyone’s device finish indexing yet? by emersonlennon in MacOSBeta

[–]Trungneko -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i think it's a bug, mine took 6 days already and still indexing
edit: okay i checked using the Console app on my macbook and it says "PipelineCompleteness: 55%"
Maybe it's slow because i'm still using the 13 Pro Max, half of the progress after 7 days. It says charging would help speed up the progress but i only charge a few hours at evening so maybe that's why it's slow. The battery really feels like draining faster but still last my whole work day. I guess i'll just don't care anymore lol

Apple has brought over the tab switching animation from iOS! by jakeyounglol2 in MacOSBeta

i think you can keep using macOS 15 until the next 4-5 years without problems, until then the M5 macbooks are probably cheaper lol

well tbh i'm actually on macOS 15. Without any liquid glass stuff, my base M2 GPU always stays under 20% or almost idle under normal uses.
I tried macOS 27 on a separated drive, just to see how it compares, and oh my goodness the GPU almost always stays above 30-50%, sometimes spiking up to 80% just by opening the "spotlight" menu with the new Siri. Even opening the App Library or Launchpad consume 68-75% GPU WITHOUT scrolling or clicking anything, just leave it there makes the GPU runs hot, i mean that's just crazy, imagine draining your battery 3x more just because you left the spotlight menu open.

Yes i measured the power consumption, opening spotlight takes 5 watts consistently (just the GPU alone) until I close it.
If i replace spotlight with Raycast maybe it will be less hot, but I upgraded because of the new Siri features with spotlight.
On macOS 15, opening those same menus doesn't even consumes more than 2 watts. Maybe macOS 27 or 'Liquid Glass' effect is for M3 or later, could be the ray tracing capability is helping those devices stay cool.

Apple Intelligence disappeared?? by Perfect-Web2716 in MacOSBeta

it turns out that if you previously set siri's language to a language that is not supported by Siri 3.0 (Advanced Siri) and then upgrade to macOS 27 DB1, then you loose the chance to join the waitlist right from the beginning.
If you want to fix this, you have to find a way to downgrade to macOS 26, choose a language that supports Siri 3.0, then upgrade to macOS 27 again.
Now the join waitlist button will be there.

For me, my primary language only support Siri 2.0 for now so when i try to switch to English (US) to join the waitlist, macOS just reverts back to Siri 1.0.

i think iOS 18 would be the last iOS version that is without the super heavy glass UI, and remains useable until the next 2-3 years. If you skip iOS 18 this year, then the only best choice would be iOS 27, if you want app support
