    nsurlsessiond downloading nonstop in the background

    What’s the Consensus on Protective Shells?

    Protective shells don't seem popular in this forum given the dearth of messages. The argument in favor is obvious. But do these shells damage a MacBook Pro over time because of the extra weight on the hinge or the pressure on the display from the plastic fasteners? Are soft shells safer than...

    Customizing low power mode

    From reading around, lower power mode on MacBooks: Reduces CPU performance Lowers screen brightness Turns off Promotion (disables 120Hz refresh rate) Lowers fan noise (by reducing heat output) Apple doesn't seem to actually specify any of this.

    Has anyone repasted M1, M2, M3, M4 MBPs?

    I know repasting is not really necessary as these Apple silicon chips run pretty cool. However, the MAX machines can run into thermal throttling, so I'm curious if anyone has done it and what their experience with this was in terms of temp differences and difficulty, etc. I had a hell of a time...

    Inconsistent tap behavior into inactive window

    I just noticed something really strange on my new (to me) 16" M1 Max MBP running MacOS Sequoia 15.2. When tapping into an inactive window with the trackpad, sometimes the tap actually does something in that window, and sometimes it just makes the window active. This only seems to happen when...

    What type of SSD is this?

    It came from my dead 2014 MBP. What form factor or whatever is this? The connector on it does not look like all my other M.2 drives. What kind of USB enclosure do I need to connect this to my new Mac?

    Touch Bar should have been ADDED, not REPLACED

    So MacBook's unpopular Touch Bar is completely gone.... I think it was unique gimmick with something potential and it should have been ADDED to the full keyboard, instead of REPLACING the physical keys. What do you think?
