I love my M1 MacBook Air, but I can’t find a way to fully shut it off. Open the lid, it’ll boot up. Press on the haptic trackpad when it’s “off” will turn it on and it’ll give a haptic. I don’t know if there’s a setting I missed, but I don’t think I can disable that. It’s always sipping power sadly. I can’t necessarily power down my MacBook and walk away from it for 6 weeks (estimate) and have it still work. Which is weird
If you don't want the MacBook to turn on when the lid is opened, turn off AutoBoot. sudo nvram AutoBoot=%00 Not using your MacBook for 6 weeks or more is an edge case. I would suggest making sure that Optimized Battery Charging is on and leave the MacBook plugged in. The MacBook will learn that is being left on the charger and will eventually learn not to charge to 100%. There is also third part software, AlDente, but the default Apple software should learn to protect your battery.
Thank you Myke for your opinion on Apple Intelligence Image playground. I personally don't agree with you but we can agree to disagree. Let's come back here a year from now and see if this Apple Intelligence feature was a success or a dud.
