    Does macOS Catalina 10.15 fit in a bootable 8GB USB flash drive ?

    Trigger SIRI without Keyboard

    This has probably come up here already, however, I just installed the latest 10.15 Public Beta on a 2017 27" iMac. I enabled Voice Control as soon as 10.15 was installed and said "Open Siri" and it triggers SIRI perfectly. So that's really handy. I understand using the keyboard for many might...
