In the mechanical keyboard community, I've also heard this type of layout referred to as "southpaw"

The child did not consent.

Facebook us currently being sued for targeting children with "sexual exploitation, solicitation, sextortion and human trafficking."

However, you have chosen to directly attack the above commenter based on your own views. This is tasteless, loaded, and detracts from your point.

I previously commented a solution to another problem, but it assists here too:

This command will make your MacBook hibernate when lid is closed or the laptop sleeps, so RAM is written to disk and the system powers down. The downside is that it does increase the amount of time it takes to resume.

A nice side benefit though, is that fingerprint is not accepted on first unlock, I believe secrets are still encrypted at this stage similar to cold boot. A fingerprint still unlocks from screensaver normally, as long as the system does not sleep (and therefore hibernate)

Yeah, lol.

Was all Apple since the iBook G4. Bought a Pixel last week. It's nice.

My my, what a warm welcome to competitors.

Except for that time they didn't.

Since it hasn't been mentioned, my first thought is valid users browsing on iOS with iCloud Private Relay enabled.

I have this enabled on my iPhone and websites that report my IP show the block is owned by Cloudflare or Akamai.

I really hope Logitech is paying attention, because when Harmony finally dies, I'm not sure how I'm going to replace it.

When resuming from hibernation I’m not prompted for credentials until the system has resumed, so I have to imagine the disk remains decrypted, i.e. same behavior as sleep.

I've worked around this problem on each mac laptop I've owned over the years by configuring "hibernate on lid close."

When I open the lid of the mac it takes maybe 20-30 seconds to resume. I consider this a small price to pay in exchange for reliable sleep and less battery drain with the lid closed.

If you want to try this, run in the terminal:

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 25

If you don't like it, you can restore defaults with:

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3
