10 Hidden Easter Eggs in macOS

[Pinkyyy 💜🍎]

I feel like this is a bit of an easter egg as well: The Finder about window still calling the "Mac" a "Macintosh". It must be one of the few places within macOS where you'll still find that terminology, maybe the only spot even.

It's not the only one, there's also the "Macintosh HD" !

Very interesting article. I enjoyed it.

When I read stuff about Steve, it really makes me miss him. He was such a character that would push the boundaries, challenge the way we think about things and what we were capable of. He always inspired me.

I feel the same way ! I love reading stuff about him. He was such a passionate, charismatic and inspirational character. Miss him a whole lot. ❤️

I have a feeling in the future we will be able to find referencing Apple Vision Pro. 🥽

Interestingly, a few hours after posting my long rant on the startup chime, YouTube served me this exact video… Funny how the algorithm works 😅

Yep. And say what you will about Steve having been a bit of a d!ck, having abandoned his first daughter, having an estranged biological father and whatnot; his relationship with his last core family seemed to be quite normal and wholesome, unlike Bezos's and, obviously and glaringly, the complete lunacy that is Musk's familial track record. The latter is a certified sociopath.

Is that the same ‘poof’ that used to happen when you dragged applications out of the dock? I miss that ☹️

Yep, it's gone now. It also has a bit of lore of its own, it seems…

Yep. There’s no doubt what Steve did with his first daughter was so wrong, and it’s not only the fact that he abandoned her, but the way he treated her too. But hey we all are humans and we all make mistakes. At least he became more mature as he aged up and learned from his past mistakes, that’s what truly matters.
