  • What is a 'Retina' display, and why it matters

    Something now discussed: How Apple applies its high density configurations. I’ve used the Retina equipped iMacs since they were first introduced, but when I switched to a 5K2K LG display macOS does not recognize it as “Retina” compatible. This is manifested as images seen in Safari being 1/2 rez and pixelated, same with many dialogs/menus in Adobe apps. I’ve tried to see if the system can be forced to perceive the 5K2K display as high DPI capable, but no avail. All other text and images are rendered correctly. I should compare this display to other 4K monitors to see if this upscale issue is common to non-Apple monitors.

  • Dropbox won't be able to sync to external drives on macOS

    This is outrageous! The whole point of using applications like Dropbox is to offload files that bloat the internal SSD. This will definitely be a dealbreaker for any upgrades to macOS. I’m glad I read about this - I’ll be sending Apple a huge complaint.

  • TV app on Apple TV hardware frustrating users with large libraries

    I see this only in limited times, but I only own 260+ movies. What I really want to see is an effective “Continue” function where coming back from a prolonged pause doesn’t force you to start a search all over again, load the movie, then plunge through all the submenus.

  • First M2 Pro benchmarks prove big improvement over M1 Max

    “Wish I could simply plug a Mac mini into my iMac display.”

    I believe this to be deliberate. If Target Displays Mode still existed, the reason and need for the Studio Display would be greatly diminished. I believe many iMac 5K users would see the Mac Mini M2 Pro as a great alternative to buying a new Apple display.

  • Apple resurrects full-size HomePod with updated acoustics

    Great to see them again, but it should have been priced at $250…sorry, $249. $300 is a big number considering the array of competing samples on the market.
