I got tired of the AI writing before finding out if they even attempted to contact Apple about this issue? Does anyone know?

Also, massively over-dramatised. Yes, a bug worth finding and knowing about, but it’s not a time bomb - very few users are likely to be affected by this.

Knowing the nature of OS kernels, I’m guessing even just putting a Mac laptop to sleep would be enough to avoid this issue as it would reset the TCP stack - which may be why some people are reporting much longer uptimes without hitting this problem, since (iirc) uptime doesn’t reset on Macs just for a sleep? Only for a full reboot?

Anyway, all in all, yeah hopefully Apple fix this but it’s not something anyone needs to panic about.
