I do not know if other operating systems do this, if the MacBook is running hot and the fans are spooled up 100% and then you activate Siri, the OS shuts down the fans so that the mic can pick up the voice command clearly. Genius. One of the many reasons I love Apple products.
How to rebuild my Intel MacBook Pro twice returning to Sequoia, for some reason it keeps automatically updating to macOS 26.
So much faster with Sequoia.
I have used @SparkMailApp both on the Mac and iOS for years, it worked very well. It had more features than I needed, but was missing one feature for me, which was not to automatically mark an email as read once it’s open. Apple Mail now offers it so I’m switching back.
I followed the rule of not letting the battery on my iPhone Air drop below 20% before charging it, and never charging it above 90%, still, it dropped to 95%, battery capacity after 352 cycles, so I guess I went wrong somewhere.
I was disappointed with iOS26, MacOS26, and iPadOS26, I am happy though that Apple made the focus of 27 to clean and speed things up.
Watching yesterday’s Apple announcement made me feel even happier that I bought the iPhone Air the day it came out last year.
I never thought Apple would release a folding phone, even if they did, I would not be interested, however, it really is very interesting, but I will wait till next year’s version, it will have the missing features added such as Face ID.

I was mistakingly sending compressed files from Teams on my iPad to my iCloud Drive, decompressing, then sending the fils to @PDFExpert_ to deal with when I could have just bypassed iCloud Drive completely and went straight to PDF Express which handled all directly.
I don’t get it, WWDC hasn’t started yet.

The-One drawback for me for updating my iPhone as that at some point with some update the battery percentage will drop, I’m sure it’s not due to the update, but somehow the update triggers the percentage.
