TLM: I don't understand why people think that someone who is sending data to their servers is also using their app.

@joedf lol

@nnnik True ..
That aside, the real problem here is poorly implemented API frameworks, #eww.
I cringe every time I have to use one ( due to a new API coming out every other day ).
The real solution lies in vendors simplifying their interfaces imo but heh...

What’s new in Build 14971

PowerShell in the Shell: In an effort to bring the best command line experiences to the forefront for all power users, PowerShell is now the defacto command shell from File Explorer. It replaces Command Prompt (aka, “cmd.exe”) in the WIN + X menu, in File Explorer’s File menu, and in the context menu that appears when you shift-right-click the whitespace in File Explorer. Typing “cmd” (or “powershell”) in File Explorer’s address bar will remain a quick way to launch the command shell at that location. For those who prefer to use Command Prompt, you can opt out of the WIN + X change by opening Settings > Personalization > Taskbar, and turning “Replace Command Prompt with Windows PowerShell in the menu when I right-click the Start button or press Windows key+X” to “Off”.

Final Thoughts
Repairability Score =1 ( 1 to 10 ) (10 is easiest to repair)

+The trackpad is easy to access and straightforward to replace.
-Use of proprietary pentalobe screws makes servicing and repair unnecessarily difficult.
-The entire battery assembly is strongly glued into the case, complicating replacement.
-The processor, RAM, and flash memory are soldered to the logic board.
-The Touch Bar adds a second, difficult-to-replace screen to damage.
-The Touch ID sensor doubles as the power switch, and is paired with the T1 chip on the logic board.
- Fixing a broken power switch may require help from Apple, or a new logic board.

Permanently soldered on RAM, SSD drive, limited to 16 GB RAM, lacks ports that are in still in common use, gimmicky touch bar, no function keys, crappy keyboard, everything glued together, nothing repairable, and they call this a professional laptop!
Nope, just an overpriced, disposable, anorexic, consumer laptop that's a bit faster than the rest of their laptop line.
This is not what us professionals want.

Yeah, was thinking about an SSD. That would be lovely.... Just gotta do some saving haha
