The Caps Lock button on MacBooks knows if you really want to press it. (alien.top)

Try to hit your CAPS Lock button as if it's a mistake and see what happens. Mine is reading my mind.

The difference between unintentional hit and an intentional one is very slight, but it knows :)

Yeah it’s a slight delay before it activates. Been on MacBooks since I got my first one in 2010.

It’s one of those things like faceid where it just works without you ever having to think about it.

    I don't think I've ever had that experience with Face ID haha, but I get the sentiment. Never seems to work reliably for me.

    Touch ID, other the other hand, is just chefs kiss.

    Face ID fails in bed…

    Wish I have Touch ID for those moments… or any moments of me not looking at the phone directly

    2 factors at play:

    1. How much of your face is being obscured by your pillow (if you’re lying on your side)

    2. Angle of phone-to-face. If the angle is too steep, Face ID will fail to detect.
