I have been a Macintosh user for quite some time now and I have never, not once, not a single time, correctly distinguished "brew update" from "brew upgrade" on the first try

Can someone at Apple vibe-code their way into this not being an app-modal window that prevents me from doing any work until it completes?

I fail using this UI at least once a week. It's the AirPods Control Center volume pane, where I go to put my AirPods Pro into Adaptive mode (which I have configured a hundred times to be part of the long-press selection, but that always gets inexplicably forgotten). What you're SUPPOSED to do is tap the circle to bring up the modes. But right below it is the OBVIOUS LOOK OF A DROPDOWN CONTROL, complete with the double-arrow and tint color, but it is NOT ACTUALLY A TAPPABLE CONTROL AARRGGHHH 😡

Another comically basic bug in Tahoe's TV.app: if you remove a download from this menu, you cannot remove any other downloads from this screen (because the menu item won't appear in their context menus!) until you navigate to a different section, then back to Downloaded.

I really have to wonder if anyone at Apple uses this app…

@harshil@mastodon.social @amyworrall@mastodon.social This seems like the kind of thing that Apple should shield us from, since THEY own the entire customer and financial relationship.

RE: https://toad.social/@KimPerales/115956833482668960 “Apple’s Tim Cook is among a group of CEOs being eviscerated for traveling to the White House on the same day Border Patrol agents killed a Veterans Affairs nurse in Minneapolis. "Cook, who gifted President Donald Trump a 24-karat gold desk ornament on his last White House visit, returned on Saturday to attend a dinner and screening of the first lady’s new documentary, ‘Melania.’” When we look back on his leadership in the future, let this be Tim Cook's legacy.
