It does not stream in content, but I would guess the API might support that some day.

It remains the case even if you’re only a few ms away.

As a developer that supports B2 (I write ExpanDrive) I think it’s great that they are moving on from an API that doesn’t expose any extra value. That being said, I wish B2 performance was better. Throughput is dramatically slower than S3.

I think the APFS snapshot integration is easily the coolest part of Arq 6. Arq now has access to a special Apple entitlement to take full-desk point-in-time snapshots of an APFS container and backup from that. It's like what time machi

For the most part, I'd just be using macOS WindowServer. Which isn't very helpful. That's part of what is driving the question about whether one big monitor is ultimately better.

I’ve been playing with the beta of Infra, which serves a similar purpose. Also with checking out https://www.infra.app/

They have access to a kernel module and entitlement that only they have access to, com.apple.fileutil - and Apple has said they aren't giving out any more entitlements for it.

Curious if anyone knows what Dropbox will do about SmartSync. KAuth extensions are likely out as of 10.16, and the Endpoint Security extensions don’t let you block a reply for more than 60 seconds, so you can’t dynamically page in large fil

They currently offer no replacement for VFS. But I bet they will offer something fuse-like if they offer anything at all. Also: the file provider api they use for iCloud Drive that was supposed to ship in Catalina but got yanked is still li

I have no inside information but assuming they continue to expose the VFS layer they will very likely build a usermode extension framework that is quite like FUSE, but supported by the OS and maintained by Apple.

I think this is fairly overblown, there are a fair number of FUSE for macOS forks out there with signing certificates. I have kext signing certificate for ExpanDrive, Google has one for Google Filestream, I suspect many others have one as w

Fairly sure this is not true, unless you have a source. Drew did all the client side work in python/librsync to get going.

We only email a couple times a year. And we definitely don’t silently update to a new major version. Ping support and link this thread and we can upgrade you free. Sorry for the trouble.

Having mouse support to enable a high quality remote desktop client could be a real game changer. I'd love to use an iPad, but can't develop on it. While I don't need it to be a primary development environment by any means, t
