How much resources do these take up? Probably around 1 gig of ram to run in the background.

Firefox does the same thing which tells me there's malicious software buried beneath the surface

Why do you need a screensaver? Just let the display turn off.

getting super technical, they are a relic of times when burn-in was a real concern & leaving anything statically on a screen for more than 5min was a bad idea (funnily enough we’ve come full-circle a bit in that regard with OLED but I digress)

either way, I appreciate the work Apple still puts into making some beautiful screensavers, especially with how power-efficient modern displays are (i.e. a screensaver can be left running with minimal power impact). it’s the little things

What else you using that 1gb for?

Not that impressed. Watching on a 4K OLED monitor and they just lack detail and range.

Probably because all the links have "sdr" in them.

Congratulations, you found another way to complain. Write it down so you don't forget.

I'm getting the same in Firefox. In Safari the link loads fine.

None of them load for me in Safari (17.6, fully up to date on my older machine).

Sadly it doesn't seem so, so far, at least not in Public Betas 1 and 2.

I wanted the same thing for Sequoia... That Sequoia morning, day, and night would just automatically switch to match the time of day, but alas they don't, they act like separate choices.

I really want that functionality on the Sequoia forest and the new Tahoe lakeside view!

ah okay. yeah that would be cool. I really miss dynamic wallpapers, but the article is implying that they do that, so not sure what they're talking about...

They also function as dynamic wallpapers that adapt throughout the day.

Is there any way to get a static snapshot for the desktop?

How these work is the video screensaver comes to a gentle stop when you unlock your Mac, ending up on a different part of the video each time as your desktop image. If you really wanted static images just do fullscreen screenshots when you see the frame you like, using these video files of the screen savers.

Are these available on tvOS?

It's safe to say they will be.

This is incorrect. These are not dynamic wallpapers.

When selecting Random aerial Tahoe screensavers, the download was massive. I deleted them all manually. It's a great feature, but I prefer the relative space.

Also got that warning in Firefox. Tried in Safari and it loaded without problems.

Don't agree! Looked good overall on a Philips 32" 4K model 32M2N8900/00.

I try everything but can't set those wallpapers/screensavers as dynamic changing style

I had the same thing here.

Meh, not impressive. No “gosh, come look at this!” I kept waiting for the Himalayan sciences to become larger, or zoom in on a peak for some detail; nothing. These remind me of 12 scenes you’d see on a calendar handed out at your bank.

Think this is a first. Happy to see screensavers from India. Some of them are very good. Will definitely be using these.

The link for all of those beautiful aerial (LA, SF, London, etc)???
