Vinegar

[Lorie McCloud]

I had toupdate vinegar to get it to run on this computer. I’m trying to 
set it to work on youtube but the only option I can find in settings for it is: 
“ask” if there are other options, where are they? I don’t think “ask” will do 
much good unless there’s something about this I don’t understand which could 
well be the case. I’m expecting to see other things like. “Always” or “never” 
but I don’t. suggestions please.

thanks.
Lorie

Apple mail in Ventura

[Lorie McCloud]

I’m trying to find the place where you can set trash and junk to delete 
every 30 days. I can’t find it. is it available in Ventura or will I need to do 
it manually?

thanks.

 either I suppose I’ll have to use a usb mic.
 
 the voices available are different. did they do away with Alex and if not, 
 where is he?
 
 thanks.

Re: Old dinosaur looking to upgrade

[Phil Halton]

Jonathan, thanks for answering. Do you have anything more substantial to say about the reasons why you would suggest the air over the MacBook Pro? For example how about my question concerning the  M2 chip in the MacBook Air versus the M3 chip in the MacBook Pro? And also about the touch ID sensor on the external keyboards?Sent from my IPhoneOn Dec 1, 2023, at 8:52 PM, Jonathan Cohn  wrote:I would suggest getting a top of the line AIR instead of a base model MacBook Pro. They should be about the same price but the additional memory and storage will probably be more beneficial then Ray tracing or a few more cores in  the processor.But then I’m still running a 2015 Mac Book Air 11.

I'm looking at a base model MacBookPro 14 inch with the m3 chip. I'm not a power user anymore so I'm thinking this will do fine.I'm just wondering about a few things such as, is the M2 chip in the 15 inch MacBookAir that much less powerful than the M3 in the MacBookPro, and is the Air worth considering?Then there is the external keyboard question. I need an external to minimize the impact on carpal tunnel and the Magic keyboards seem to have some  features like touch ID, and keypad. I don't need the keypad, but the touch ID might be useful. Is touch ID worth the extra money? Currently I get by just fine with an old external apple keyboard with no features, but I don't know what the newest machines are like and what might be a real benefit.I'd appreciate any helpful information you can give me on the latest and greatest from Apple Macs.Sent from my IPhone-- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.Your Mac Visionaries list moderator is Mark Taylor.  You can reach mark at:  mk...@ucla.edu and your owner is Cara Quinn - you can reach Cara at caraqu...@caraquinn.comThe archives for this list can be searched at:http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries@googlegroups.com/--- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/macvisionaries/3A0BCE88-11C8-4DE4-ACE7-9125C5E4D0E9%40gmail.com.
