On my mac, VO will say Authentication, application, application or something similar every minute or two. It's really annoying and shows just how bad this platform is. I'm guessing the screen saver kicked in or something and it just can't deal with it, or my ssh session is causing it. But I still hear that even after I closed it.

@tspivey Nah, the platform is fine, it's just VO that royally sucks.

@tspivey Did you try VO+F1 or VO+F2? I think VO is trying to remind you that there may be an application waiting for your response?

@vick21 @tspivey It would do this on my end if the Mac goes into Screen Saver on its own, super annoying.
What I do is just hit the power button to lock it, then it won't do that.

@johann @tspivey Ah yes, thanks for that reminder... I now remember... I simply disabled the screen saver to get rid of this behaviour. I have not seen it on my system for a while...

@tspivey I‘ve never had that. But I also never have screen savers activate either.
