@stroughtonsmith I use the brightness and volume keys all the time. Recently I started using the search key because of the CMD + Space issue.

Failed to update my Studio Display XDR. The alert tells me to try again in an hour or contact Apple support. That's oddly specific.

Remind me about XXX.

HomePod: "I can't connect to your iPhone."

iCloud is a thing, you know.

The ports on the new Studio Display XDR (outside of the main one, which is marked) are so downgraded from the original. I used to charge a MacBook Pro on any of the ports, but can no longer do so. It‘s just too slow.
iPadOS 26 does some weird things with the edge highlights. They're like 95 degrees (vs. 45 on iOS) and they rotate with the device orientation. So in portrait they show up on the top and bottom of the icon/widget, but in landscape they're on the left and right side of them. And it always looks weird. Also, as I already mentioned, they're way too strong on widgets.
What is this?

Recently (iPadOS 26.4?) Apple added a stroke border to windows to help them stand out when layered on top of each other. macOS had this for years, but iOS was always focused on the pure approach when it comes to outlines on things and was mostly flat.

It lowkey looks ugly, but I guess it helps. Previously it could be hard to tell where one window starts and where the other ends, more so in dark mode.

Why exactly is CMD + Space so unreliable on iPad? The search function key works fine.

Is there a trick to make showing/hiding sections with NSDiffableDataSourceSnapshot.apply(...) smoother?

Right now it looks a bit unwieldy with the overlapping views and the abrupt disappearance when removing the section. #UIKit

Looking at ipsw diffs, guess iOS 26.4 introduced some safety protection that discards notification from untracked APNs token, preventing CloudKit notifications from getting to the app 😂
