Hi guys,

Sorry to ask this question here because I couldn't find any separate topic about this so hope you guys can help me.

My pc download icloud software and normally sync all my pictures there. I noticed that whenever i deleted my pictures using my iphone 11, those pictures still appear in my pc. How can i remove them?

And can i delete pictures in my pc and then iphone 11 will automatically delete them?

Base model with 28GB of RAM usage? Swap memory used? Did you felt any slowdown?

This is very depending on person though. As it for me, I open Capture One with high res photos, several Finder windows and Final Cut Pro with 4K video, easily hit 30GB

Bought the mouse and used few times only…so ended up selling it…the trackpad is much better imo as it can be used for so many things, gestures, scrolling is much better and etc…

Also gotten a trackpad coz I used an external keyboard (Keychron) needed the trackpad to be next to keyboard otherwise very awkward to use it with keyboard…

The mouse has bad ergonomics and the scrolling is not smooth, gestures on it is weird too..worse is the material is like plastic so it’s not smooth when you use gestures on it…

But it all boils down to what you need and what you use it for…if a mouse is necessary then consider the logictech mx master 3 (for max) for rm300+

Agreed. Macbook’s trackpad is much better than using mouse. I’ve been using only trackpad since 2013 and some people really wonder how I manage to do that lol.

Yeap im loving the large trackpad side by side with the keyboard…just love how smooth it can be with all the gestures etc…before this I wasn’t quite a fan of trackpad on a 13” coz of the much smaller size trackpad, but the 16” is a bliss, and the external is even bigger than the one on 16” biggrin.gif

This seems like the infamous memory leak issue. There is an update to Monterey 12.1 released today. This release is reported to solve the memory leak issue. Just try to update and see the result.

Aside from the memory leak bug, all Unix type system will maximize usage of RAM by keeping as much data as possible in RAM and minimize the available free memory, it's different from Windows.
For the memory leak issue, I think it's fixed in 12.1, at least when I tested yesterday under the same scenario, kernel panic does not happen anymore.
