A comment on A dock that wakes up reliably.

On a similar note, I still do not understand why I have to plug a USB Flash Drive into my Mac twice for it to mount.

I take modern USB-C Flash Drive, plug it into my Mac. Nothing. Take it out, plug it in again, and it mounts just fine.

Same with SD Cards.

I have no idea why this is, and I'm not sure if it's always been this way, but I can't remember a time when I didn't have to do this.

Maybe 2027 will finally be the Year of Apple on the Desktop!

Do you have multiple accounts active at the same time? That was buggy for me.

Omg, I have the same problem under linux, no idea why. dmesg just reports nothing on the first time, second time, it just works
