Game Mode is enabled on macOS Sonoma by default, and for good reason. Unless you have specific processes running in the background while you game, there's no reason to disable Game Mode. As these synthetic tests show, Game Mode isn't just a marketing ploy by Apple to get you playing games on the best Macs out there. The feature actually does make a difference, and it's worth using anytime you game with macOS Sonoma.
This article starts to explain a bit more about Game Mode and what it really does, a topic that seems to have drawn a bit of blank elsewhere.
In September, Shopify, one of the world’s largest eCommerce platforms, unveiled its latest integration—Apple’s iOS 17 Object Capture—for creating augmented reality (AR) 3D digital assets on-the-fly. Using an iPhone Pro with a LiDAR scanner, online stores can now have access to a completely free, cutting-edge platform to upload items directly from the physical to the virtual.

Yesterday, my iPhone rebooted itself, right before my very eyes.
What happened was this: I was at work, and it was getting noisy. So, I took out my AirPods, put them on, and was waiting for the connected-tone before I start playing music. I was waiting and waiting and waiting, and nothing happened. I pressed on the AirPods, hoping it will start playing music, and nothing happened.
So I glanced down at my iPhone, and saw the big Apple logo.
(Things seem to be working fine after the reboot was done.)
