When Apple's macOS Big Sur 11.3 update launches it will include a new screensaver that pays homage to the first Mac.
While Apple regularly refreshes, updates and tweaks its system UI with each major macOS release, the company rarely releases new screensavers for its desktop operating system. The last addition, a specular 3D waveform visualization called Drift, came with macOS Catalina in 2019.
To commemorate the coming launch of its latest M1-powered Mac, the newly announced 24-inch iMac, Apple created an all new design that draws inspiration from Mac's past.
Quietly included in the macOS Big Sur 11.3 Release Candidate is 'Hello,' a screensaver that dynamically draws and displays 'hello' in cursive text. The text is a nod to the now classic 'hello' displayed on Apple's first Mac during its unveiling — and subsequent ad blitz — in 1984.
In macOS Big Sur, the 'Hello' animation is similar to one presented during Tuesday's 'Spring Loaded' event, at which Apple unveiled the redesigned 24-inch iMac. Swooping text is drawn onscreen as a virtual camera pans and zooms from various angles before settling on a full-screen view of the greeting.
Display options include 'Soft Tones,' 'Spectrum' and 'Minimal,' which change background colors and text models. By default the screensaver is set to cycle through multiple languages, though a separate option allows users to fix the greeting to their native language.
Apple is expected to launch macOS Big Sur 11.3 in the near future, potentially alongside iOS 14.5 next week.

HoRNDIS is required for Remote Network Driver Interface Specification (RNDIS) which is a USB protocol to provides a virtual Ethernet link. If you don’t want to access your device over network – don’t install HoRNDIS. It is optional.
Make sure the following drivers are installed:
- HoRNDIS, HoRNDIS (pronounce: “horrendous”) is a driver for Mac OS X that allows you to use your RNDIS to get network access to Pluto. It is known to work with Mac OS X versions 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) through 10.12 (Yosemite). Although you should be careful with all drivers that you install on your computer, HoRNDIS has been tested at least well enough for the author (and many others) to run full time on their own personal computers. It would be great if Apple decided to support this natively – since RNDIS is a Microsoft specification, it’s unlikely.
The drivers and files should be compatible with:
- macOS El Capitan 10.11
- macOS Yosemite 10.10
A reboot is required after installing the HoRNDIS.

Like most of the network settings on Pluto or the M2k – things are meant to be easy to use. This also means things are inherently insecure.
For example – the root password of Pluto is analog. We post it on the Internet. Think about that for a moment. This could allow anyone with an IP connection to take over the device and use it for malicious purposes.
Never set up a bridge between the Internet and a network connected Pluto with the default images.
Unfortunately – nothing on your host understands the what the IP address of the usb device is. You, the human behind the keyboard need to understand this before any sort of networking will work. There are two main ways to do this:
Hello From Pluto Mac Os Update
Once the HoRNDIS driver is installed, you should see something like this when you goto → System Preferences → Network.
You may need to reboot without the PlutoSDR plugged in, and then attach the PlutoSDR to get HoRNDIS to load properly
To check things out, it should look something like this in dmesg:
Hello From Pluto Mac Os X
ssh config
Adding a quick/short ssh config file, which describes the USB device can be helpful. It’s maintained in github, and it’s a simple matter of grabbing the raw text file. You shouldn’t do the exact below unless you have no ~/.ssh/config file. Otherwise, click on this link and copy/paste it into the system wide /etc/ssh/ssh_config file, or the user specific ~/.ssh/config file.
Since the ssh key on the pluto changes every boot, we want to be able to never store the key (so we store it to /dev/null. This does make it easier to use (don’t need to continually edit the known_hosts file), but does make things susceptible to man in the middle attacks.
if you have sshpass installed, you can use that so you dont need to type in a password:
