Is that true? Many other comments in this thread are saying Apple Silicon has something like 30% better efficiency/battery life.

Apple Silicon had a process node advantage over the Core 100 and 200 series due to having a better allocation with TSMC.

Now Intel's process node is also SOTA and on par with TSMC 2nm so they should be more or less equivalent and the only differences down to what set of compromises they make in the design of the chips.


There are enough keys there, just configure some to your liking. That’s a software problem.

You certainly can't remap the Fn key on the software side. If the keyboard firmware allows to remap the Fn-layer it would be a dream :)

Not really. PgUp, PgDown are missing. It is possible to configure software combination that would emulate them. But emulation is emulation.

Your reply is unrelated to the article which discusses measuring CO2 in order to gauge pathogen transmission risk.


Thanks for that tip!

Unfortunately, it's still bad. It's a bit better than dragging the handles of the selected area, but if I go to far and want to reduce the selected area, it doesn't work anymore.


yes, this feature seems to be extend-only.


I can agree to that, KDE is very good. Sadly my hardware has some persistent issues on Linux.

Also, while ScreenTime on MacOS is very unpolished, at least it exists. I do not think something similar exists for Linux or KDE.


Apple actually finally managed to allow 0 minutes as a time limit. Screen Time really needs to be finished by Apple, with a few more features, like more allowing certain apps at certain times (not just disallowing one set of apps at a certain time).


Yes, this was added a couple months ago!

And to top it off, in iOS 26 (Beta) you can set time limits for websites too! One feature I (and I'm sure many others) were waiting for since forever.


Thing is, Apple's not really interested in you using your phone LESS, so they don't really have an incentive to make it easier for you.


It also works in Safari, don’t have to use firefox focus.


Yup, this. Should have clarified.


They also said something about analyzing blood flow for the gesture, I think.


A single cow eats many times the calories it is worth before it is ready to be eaten.


Apple support recently told me to kill all other apps to make the Files app work. It was taking ages to download and save data.
