- Razengan 6y agoOn macOS, Cmd+Space and just do calculations in the Spotlight search bar.

- retromario 6y agoDo you have a source for this?
- argvargc 6y agoIt's in the ToS, and there was a big hoo-haa over it at the time it was introduced. Eg: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8473580 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8473580 Aside from that, the most basic understanding of what Spotlight is reveals there is no other way for it to function other than to send the users input off-machine: The user types in a value and results are returned related to that value, some, from online sources.
