I just got the new ARM-based macbook. I was shocked that the menu bar is sooo fucking high now, and that there is a gap between the menubar and the maximized app.

How can this be? Are they totally nuts over there at Apple? I bet Steve would fire the responsible person immediately.
Is it really that hard to be somewhat pixel-perfect?

This looks so out of place and disgusting. It literally hurts my eyes.

Picture? I searched and cannot find a pic of this?

Apple UIs are full of little mistakes.
Ten years ago there were none.

Regression to the mean 🤦🏻‍♀️
(aka laziness)

@Root People talk about the Golden Days of Apple with Jobs. But weren't the Golden Days actually when Wozniak was still there?

@Demolishun People are stupid and mentally lazy. They credit Jobs because he was the face, like people credit the band’s lead singer for the music and lyrics.

@Root Yeah, it tripped me out when I learned Prince wrote the song Manic Monday.

@Root Steve’s edge was his uncompromising demand for quality.

If the tech was not up to the task it had to wait until the tech could do it.

This almost killed apple once and got him fired.

But once he got back the tech was more up to his expectations and his obsession worked better.

But it was also this obsession that was his final down fall when he rejected medical help and favored his own treatment.

He apparently also stepped on many people.

But as long as you bring your in money you get away with a lot.

And in that regard he and elon musk have a lot in common. No and impossible is not really acceptable answers.

"just works", "you're using it wrong"

@Demolishun the menubar is twice the height of the regular one, even higher than the notch.
The screen corners are round and you can‘t move the cursor beyond the rounded corners.
But you can move the mouse under the notch, if you click though, the mouse cursor is moved out of this area.
This all looks and behaves so random and cobbled together.
