So here's the million dollar question about the GM, since I don't have access to that, I am curious, is the Facebook integration in there or is that gone now? I was always curious how they handled that. It was in the DP's right? But now it should be gone in the GM?

I don't have the issue in windowed mode, full-screen or in windowed mode coming back from full-screen. Enabling/disabling/enabling the Status Bar doesn't change anything either. I used the same website as in your screen shot.

Did you do a completely clean install (formatted the hard disk, then install it off a pen drive)?

Well i've done some further testing and found out that this only happens on my 27" iMac using the native resolution which is 2560x1440 or by using 1920x1080 and yes this is a clean install. I have posted a video so you can see it in action.

Facebook integration isn't present. I haven't tried installing the Facebook preview package though.

Reinstall the preview package it works just like before.

I have a 27-inch iMac with its screen running at native resolution. ;)

It just doesn't happen for me.

On the other hand Facebook never showed notifications in Notification Center for me even after installing the package. Go figure.

So the GM is the FINAL release?

My new Macbook is on it's way and i really can't be bothered to re-install everything on new machine, to do it again next week or the week after, i'm thinking about getting a dev account and downloading it for the convenience if possible? although if it's likely to change then it would be a waste of time.

unless they find any show stopper bugs than it will be the same as the final release, yes.

More or less, there's always the possibility of them issuing a GM2 but that's not the norm

I got the same problem on my 21 inch 2009 iMac. I never noticed until reading your post and now it's all that I can see. Still, I'm not too worried about it it's mostly cosmetic and I'm sure it will be fixed in time.

Would Power nap work on the iMac 2011? Looks a neat feature to have things backup whilst im sleeping haha

Nope, Power Nap needs a SSD that's soldered onto the motherboard, as far as I'm aware of. Even if you install a SSD into your other devices, it still doesn't meet the requirements. Even then, the feature is also going to be an update, which will be pushed via the app store.

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass.
    • Helium Browser 0.13.1.1

      By cork1958 · Posted

      FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • U.S. delegation throws away all burner phones and gifts from China before takeoff

      By AsherGZ · Posted

      See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By QuantumBigfoot · Posted

      He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
