I've had a hard crash with Safari around 8 or 10 times since upgrading to Big Sur on my early 2015 MBP yeah.

It crashes pretty regularly for me, usually when I've tried to close a tab or something. It's certainly not daily, but it's a drat sight more regular than should be acceptable.

SlowBloke posted:As promised I tested isolating the Netatmo bridge internet access, commands over Siri fails, direct modifications over HomeKit(home app) works. Yep, this is what I would expect. Siri requires Internet access to work so that’s just not going to be operable if you don’t have Internet access. But so long as the local area network is working then provided your homekit hub is working then all devices will be controllable through the app and any automations that you will have set up should also work as well since those live on the HomeKit Hub. If the home kit hub has access to the internet but your netatmo can't connect to it's manufacturers home server then you should still be able to control the device remotely and use Siri. That's because all commands will be going through the homekit hub rather than the netatmo bridge. this would also mean that if the manufacturer decides to stop supporting the device in five or 10 years you should still work provided that Apple doesn't drop support for homekit.

I enjoy Mail's automatic "Unsubscribe" option that pops up when you first get an email from a list, but if you ignore it and later want to use Apple's system to unsubscribe for you after you ignored that, is there a menu option to get that to work again, or if you passed on it do you just have to do it manually by finding the unsubscribe link in 2pt. font somewhere in the email itself?

I got one of those 'magic keyboards' with the num-pad and it's got 7 additional F-keys (F13-19). Anyone have any idea how I can actually use them for something? Or bind them to something? Nothing shows up in keyboard options which, presumably, applies to my laptop built-in keyboard.

I generally use extra F keys to launch macros via Keyboard Maestro.

I’m pretty sure that unsubscribe feature just scans the email for the linked word “unsubscribe”. It should pop up on every email. I do notice it doesn’t work if the email uses different working like “no longer receive these emails” or something.

It unfortunately only seems to pop up once for a particular email address and if you say "no" then it will never scan and give you the pop up again. I'm just wondering if there is an option to reset to scan again since I'm loving sick of a poo poo ton of political ones I'm getting because my drat email has obviously been put on a list.

japtor posted:Just wondering, are you using the advanced filters one in AdGuard? I think that’s the old JavaScript style rules (and won’t be as performant), so curious if disabling that one might fix the issue. I just left all the settings at default. Will double check if that could be an issue. Tbh, even with AdGuard off, scrolling on the Mini M1 seems a bit choppy if the webpage has video and tweets. Safari is very quick on the M1, but the experience is still slightly lacking compared to the smoothness in Edge Chromium on my Windows pc and on Safari on the iPad Pro.

On my work Catalina machine, I want to run an Automator script once a week to do cleanup. Is there any way to do this built in to MacOS besides adding a cron job?

I need VLC to be "always on top." I watch a lot of youtube videos that are streamed to the network VLC feature. It's nice to float the window over my text editor, so I can type away with the video on top to maximize screen space. The Mac company sure doesn't make it obvious, as I see no options for it. On the subject of VLC, that is the best video player/streamer software right?

Movist and Movist Pro are my go tos, particularly for the robust subtitle support, especially for those subs that take advantage of special sub effects. They also do h.265 without blinking and already have Apple Silicon native support. Movist is the MAS version, pro is downloadable from their website.

What VLC doesn't have, and steadfastly refuses to add, is the ability to pause by clicking on the video. That's reason enough to ditch it, as far as I'm concerned.

withak posted:I think a lot of devs would have opted out right away until they can test. A lot of them have opted out as well where they have existing methods for users to subscribe or connect through the computer. If the user does it through the app store as opposed to use the dev's own landing page and infrastructure than Apple gets their 30%(?) cut of the revenue.

Also a non negligible number of apps still have a iPhone, iPad and macOS separate app model, merging means lost revenue in that case.

Upon loading, the open per URL option always fails to load. But VLC loads the stream fine. So I have to score VLC 1, IINA 0, unfortunately.
