@imyke The weird part is when you put the Vision Pro on, you were clean shaven.

Earlier today noticed Mail on the Mac reporting 9 messages unread when I could only see 1 in my inbox. Quit and relaunched. Force quit the app. Restarted the computer. Started rebuilding the mailbox.

Only then did I realize that I had marked one thread of 9 messages unread. 🤦

Happiest days of my life: 1. Becoming a father. 2. Getting married. 3. Someone gives Tim Cook one of my GOOOD MORRRNING! t-shirts. Thank you, @jonathangulbrandsen! https://gigant.social/@jonathangulbrandsen/111862652894053316

@jonathangulbrandsen @Moltz Everything about this story is amazing. I hope Tim has it framed and leaned against the wall of his office like the rest of his art. 😂

That time someone gave Tim Cook the shirt @Moltz made of our recurring @rebound bit. Legen-fucking-dary.

Running far enough behind that I’ve hit the upper limit on how long I can park. Think Apple will pay for a parking ticket if I get one? 😬

All right, let’s take a look at this thing.

I got to spend some time with Level Lock+, the sneaky smart lock that now includes home key support and I love it. https://sixcolors.com/post/2024/01/review-level-lock-brings-apple-home-key-support-to-the-stealth-smart-lock/

Question for the Mac hive mind: What would lead Mail drastically overstating the number of flagged messages in the left-hand rail? It's showing 265 there, but selecting all of my flagged messages and dragging them yields a count of 133.

@robpegoraro I run into this not infrequently. Rebuilding mailboxes might help. Or might not! Mail is wacky.

@dmoren@zeppelin.flights avatar

@robpegoraro I have messages that I can’t delete from my inbox (until I switch to another folder and then they’re gone).

My wife: "It's been a couple days. It should be fine!”

@scottearle We’re enjoying it! It is also tremendously overwhelming at times, even for D&D aficionados like us. (As for GOTY, I really loved Spider-Man 2, and I never even got to Tears of the Kingdom, but boy, what a great year for games overall!)

My wife: “Hey Siri, add whole milk to my shopping list.”
HomePod mini: “Okay, I’ve added HomePod to your shopping list.”

Has anybody noticed that in the ~3 days since I announced I have Covid, I've been engaged online, shipping app updates, and generally kicking butt? My test line is still bright red, but I'm doing OK - probably thanks to getting EVERY vaccine, and taking Paxlovid. Science: It's more than a good idea.

@danielpunkass Watch out for the rebound. (But not @rebound). I got hit with that after I got COVID at WWDC last year.

dmoren,
@dmoren@zeppelin.flights avatar

@dnanian @danielpunkass @rebound Yeah, it really helped with that first go-round. Science is still amazing!

Is there a bigger pool of users to attack on iOS than macOS? Unequivocally. But I do wonder how many people in the EU will be downloading and installing alternative app stores. What percentage of Mac users even activate the “App Store and identified developers" option?

@ratkins @stevetures I believe it’s because he’s technically still in charge of the App Store. This may be his last big initiative.

Apple's scary warnings about the risks created by the adoption of these new EU measures are frankly hilarious, given that basically this exact same system—notarization, "sideloading,” alternative app stores—has been in place on the Mac for years.

dmoren,
@dmoren@zeppelin.flights avatar

@jann I don't think SIM cards play into this at all? A zero-day attack could also affect a Mac, if it's sent over iMessage. And if the person who owns an iPhone also owns a Mac, much of that data is already synced to it. 🤷

dmoren,
@dmoren@zeppelin.flights avatar

@jann Wallet's also on the Mac; and we're only talking one vector here. And many people have their SMSes forwarded to the Mac as well.

A new post for Six Colors Members about my desire to have iOS and watchOS handle upcoming travel, instead of just pretending that wherever the iPhone currently is is where it’s going to be for the rest of time.

@joesteel QuickTime 7 Pro! Man, I used that for a bunch of stuff for a very long time. I think I actually had a cracked version for a million years. 🤫
