@hazardwarning Reminds me of a gag: "You know those Harry Potter books have to be fictional, I mean, a ginger kid with TWO friends?"

Amazon delivery expected tomorrow. It's a breakaway magnetic connector for the Thunderbolt 3 power cable. Supplied in two parts, one fits over the existing power cable, the other goes into the T/bolt port with a magnetic flange that marries up with the first bit.
I never had time for the game of Monopoly, but this new Cheaters Edition has me a bit intrigued. https://www.fastcodesign.com/90172834/50-of-monopoly-players-cheat-so-hasbro-redesigned-it-for-them
@phoneboy 20+ years ago, it was realised that Australia was running out of 9-digit phone numbers. The transition to 10-digit numbers was by no means easy or logical. Area codes pre-change were 2-digit for capital cities & 3-digit starting with 0 for regional areas. For example, my area code was 059. Queensland, Victoria, New South Wales/Australian Capital Territory, Tasmania, South Australia/Northern Territory & Western Australia capital cities all had their own 2-digit area codes.
After the change, zone codes replaced capital city codes. WA/SA/NT came under 08; Queensland score 07; NSW/ACT 02 & VIC/TAS is now 03.
Regional area codes lost their 0, having it replaced by the relevant zone code. So my Victorian regional code of 059 became 0359. The rest of the phone numbers were mostly unchanged although the transition had to be staggered to prevent extreme confusion.

Jealous of his best friend Kim,
Donald said ‘Treat me like him!’
And so the US folks took heed,
And together they agreed . .
To stick the egocentric coot,
Inside a tight black boiler suit,
And launch him miles from anyone,
All hail the mighty Dum Jerk-Don!
Donald was a family man,
And so he came up with a plan,
To keep immigrants of any age,
Together in Melania’s cage.
@variablepulserate That worked. Previously if the Mac was off with the cover open, connecting the power would elicit a charging chime like an iOS thingie, then the Mac would boot up.
Not now, though. Now under such circumstances after connecting the power & hearing the chime a battery level indicator briefly shows on the screen.
Autoboot when opening the cover is also disabled.
@variablepulserate I think it is only the pro models. I get annoyed when connecting the power boots it up as well. I'm investigating a Terminal script to disable the connect power/lift lid auto bootup process.
