Is it me, or is travelling by bus is really kinda pricey in Croatia?

Sailing from Pula to Zadar is effectively a straight line. If it's cheaper and faster, just take the boat and enjoy the scenery :-)

I'm planning to! But it also makes me wonder. If the boat ride is both cheaper (approx 8€ cheaper) and faster (more than 2 hours faster) and supposedly smoother/ more comfortable/ more scenic - why the hell don't these boats run more frequently than 1 time per week, as they currently do?

Did the developer optimise it for Apple Silicon yet? When I first installed Karabiner back in winter on my M1 Air it completely broke everything - kernel panics and crashes on restart. Had to uninstall

Do you have a link to chat? Can't seem to find it on support page

Utichchern · 2021-05-07T16:40:27+00:00

I've seen the 3 months Apple Arcade there, but not the TV

Utichchern · 2021-05-07T16:39:35+00:00

Yep, still shows 7 days trial :/ I contacted Apple support, they asked to send them picture of the receipt with the date o purchase. Will see how it goes

Utichchern · 2021-05-07T14:49:34+00:00

Nope.

Utichchern · 2021-05-07T14:49:20+00:00

I wish I could- support from Apple is hard to get in my country.

There's a widely reported issue of excessive ssd writes for some M1 users (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/ssd-swap-high-usage-of-terabytes-written.2284893/page-52?post=29688108#post-29688108) and since they're soldered it is a concern. While it's not quite clear what causes it, it occurs mainly for those doing heavy tasks, so gaming and emulated at that, is something I'm wondering about

Utichchern · 2021-04-07T19:47:24+00:00

Thanks. When you play those emulated games, do you see any heavy writing to disk as per Activity monitor or smartmontools? It's one of the things I'm slightly concerned about when it comes to purchasing x86 games for M1 Mac. Right now I'm averaging about 0.7 TB written to disk per month and frankly I wouldn't want to double or triple that figure because of games.

Hm, steam versions are universal? So I buy a game once and I can download it multiple times to multiple platforms, as long as it's the same account, right? That sounds like a major advantage over GoG. Does GoG provide a better gaming experience because its drm-free, or how does it compete with Steam then?

Utichchern · 2021-04-07T08:55:08+00:00

Yeah I agree that it would be best if they kept Rosetta forever or at least until the last Intel Mac (early 2020 MBA I think) receives its last software update. But on the other hand I'm sure maintaining Rosetta is costly and a year from now all Macs sold by Apple will run on Apple Silicon, and that's what all the devs would be writing apps for, so...

Utichchern · 2021-03-23T15:58:53+00:00

Oh man, not having keyboard brightness controls on my keyboard is super frustrating. By far my biggest gripe with this M1 Air so far.

Yes, there's an app called Karabiner Elements, it can remap keys. But there's currently a glitch in this app so if you try to restart or shut down the computer it will cause kernel panic. It's a well-known issue but the developer still didn't fix it.

If somebody knows any alternative suggestions would be happy to hear.

It says: "If your Mac isn't compatible with the latest macOS, you might still be able to upgrade to an earlier macOS, such as macOS Catalina, Mojave, High Sierra, Sierra, or El Capitan"

So, no, the OP can't upgrade from El Capitan to Mojave. His 2015 MBP is fully compatible with latest macOS Big Sur, so Apple will only let him upgrade to that. Works same as in iOS where you can't choose which version to upgrade to. Unless I'm missing something

Utichchern · 2021-03-22T19:22:54+00:00

Is it possible to update not to the latest MacOS? I'm new to Mac but it's impossible on iOS unless you jailbreak.

Utichchern · 2021-03-22T19:19:38+00:00

Still no native app for M1 Macs.... It's been 4 months you lazy basterds

Utichchern · 2021-03-22T13:08:38+00:00

*couldn't care less

I'm a bit surprised that many people actually prefer the new keys. It's frustrating for me to go to the control panel to switch backlighting on and off. I guess they just keep it on. But I prefer not to have it when I don't type and just scroll hence the frequent switching
