z/OS is their mainframe OS. The AS/400 is something different. Different hardware and different software.

The OS/400 operating system ran on AS/400 computers. The successor to OS/400 is the i system:

I mean did he try to just daisy chain them? He claims that he wanted to use DisplayPort 1.4 for connectivity. But the monitors do support daisy chaining over thunderbolt, and he also states that. But why not daisy chain? I mean I get that it's frustrating to get the thing working with DisplayPort, dongles and docks. But the best solution was right in front of him?

I believe macOS on Apple Silicon or Intel does not support DisplayPort MST (Multi-Stream Transport) which is required for daisy-chaining to work.

MacOS supports MST mirror (which imho is mostly useless outside niche uses), but not MST extend.

Over Thunderbolt at least. I imagine it might subpar on non supported stuff.

Not sure what you mean, Thunderbolt is unrelated to MST.

MST mirroring works with all the MST capable DP monitors I’ve tried (half dozen or so), but have never got MST extend to work.

I suppose it's the common knowledge that Mac OS doesn't support MST properly and author assumed it applied to Thunderbolt docks as well. This is on Apple for not implementing that, because it's not the hardware. Intel Macbooks work perfectly fine with regular DP Alt Mode docks in Boot Camp.

Sure. But it’s like in the marketing pics even. It works over thunderbolt. And that’s what they’ve said.

SUSE is owned, through various companies, the Wallenberg Family nowadays, isn't it?

EQT, a private holding firm, per google. Private and holding are doing a lot of work in that sentence.

SUSE is a public company, now. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/SUSE.DE?p=SUSE.DE&.tsrc=fin-...

Welp, judge them by their actions.

Then it'll send as a text message.

When initiating a new conversation, the number you add to it appears blue if they can receive iMessages, green if not.

If for some reason iMessages can't be delivered to the receiving party at the moment. Text messages are used as a fallback for them. If you disable the fallback mode. It won't be.

The whole thing is kinda intuitive, and works really smooth IMHO.

iClouds calendar and contacts used to just be CardDAV and CalDAV. Has that changed?

It still uses CalDAV (not sure about CardDAV), it is just difficult to get the URLs as it involves watching network requests on the iCloud webapp.

That depends on the keyboard layout. ⌘-` with an US layout is equivalent to ⌘-§ in almost all other layouts.

Mavericks? Do you mean Mojave? Because I don't even think Mavericks runs on the Touch Bar MacBooks.

How many EU countries are Apple News available in?

After UK exits, none.

Apple News is available in a whopping 4 countries, 4 years after its introduction.

Yeah so the EU can't do much about it.

Only the UK.

The UK is not part of the EU anymore.

Thats neither factually nor theoretically correct, as all the EU laws apply until the transition period has expired, which I wouldn't be surprised will be extended given corona has taken so much focus and time away from it.

Officially they are no longer part of the EU. They have agreed to abide by the rules of the EU for now, and the EU has agreed to allow them to trade as though they were part of the EU, but they officially left on Jan 31.

Duck typing says they're currently a member.

It's both factually and theoretically correct - the UK has left the EU, but laws are extended until the transition period is over.

Note the absence of the UK in the below sources:

https://www.gov.uk/eu-eea https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Member_state_of_the_European_U...

It is theoretically correct. The factuality is the point under dispute...

What's your definition of 'in the EU' and 'fact'?

If a nation state doesn't recognise itself being in the EU, and the EU doesn't recognise the nation state being in the EU, It's not in the EU.

https://europa.eu/european-union/about-eu/countries_en#28mem...

Well maybe there’s one way to resolve this dispute?

Did the UK MEPs serve their last day already?

Apple News is not available in Germany. The only thing we get is the non-customisable News-Widget.

Well it might not be available as a service but apple might be handling the RSS URLs anyway.

Which is really awful. Always showing tabloid nonsense that you can't get rid of.

IBM getting involved in something is usually a death sentence. Initially they might inspire hope. But they'll turn everything into a horrible mess lacking those polishing touches that makes stuff nice to work with. They'll tick feature check-boxes. But the stuff will barely be usable.
