You can finally power on a Mac remotely

This article discusses Apple's new feature in macOS 26.5 that allows Macs to automatically boot when power is restored, regardless of how they were shut down. It highlights the use cases for remote Macs in lab/CI environments and portable racks for events. The feature supports Mac mini (2024+), Mac Studio (2025+), and iMac (2024+). It also covers configuration steps, caveats like FileVault requiring SSH login, and compares it to Wake on LAN and PC capabilities.
