A subtle but welcome change in macOS 27 is that the menu bar network icon now defaults to the primary connection. Before, it was always the Wi-Fi icon, even though my primary connection was Ethernet. If you didn't know this already, you can specify which connection your computer should use as the primary by reordering it in Network Settings.

Things that ended up not being fixed in the final release of #macOS 27 Golden Gate:
- can't drag & drop windows into the bar in mission control to fullscreen them, this still worked even in the first beta of macOS 27 and then was suddenly gone
- weird lack of contrast at the bottom of the new traffic lights in light mode (dark mode looks fine)

Has anyone been playing around with macOS 27 (“Golden Gate”) Public Beta 2? How is it for quirks, hitches, stability?
I accidentally upgraded* to macOS 26 last night, everything is bubbly and terrible and I hate it, and I'm willing to consider getting on the beta train this time around.

Tumult macOS Plugin Announcement

If you're using a Mac, check out https://
github.com/unixorn/tumult.plugin.zsh
It's a collection of scripts I've accumulated over the years that lets you control some of your Mac's behavior from the CLI.
You don't need a ZSH framework to use it - the framework code just adds the repo's bin directory to your $PATH automatically. If you're not using a framework, add it's bin directory to your $PATH.
