Wow! This is super cool, thanks for doing this! I've long had an affinity for this screensaver; it has so much personality and creativity. FYI It looks like there might be an animation hitch with the solo rolling bagel.

I think the old 4 port usb-c macbook pros were similar, two usb-c ports were better for charging and supported thunderbolt, while the other two were non-thunderbolt and not optimized for charging. No visual markings. It's interesting b

Maybe I’m viewing truth too narrowly, but I feel like the printing press brought us as close as we could come to a “truth era”. Authorship of text, and the friction and cost involved with publishing seems to bend towards transmitting truth.

I was just looking into this today. I want to keep my computer updated with the cli tool softwareupdate. Before I was using the flag --all to apply any update, but then tried to change it to --recommended as I wanted to avoid any major macO

My biggest criticism with SPM is that there doesn't seem to be a way to use it with git worktree since the package cache is centralized as opposed to being at the directory/project/workspace level.

It's funny, I prefer to use Safari on iOS instead of native apps because I have more control over shaping my experience (through user scripts and custom css) and Apple's focus on user privacy which may be all lip service, but at l

To intentionally mix metaphors, I can't believe I'm about to knowingly kick this well worn hornets nest. It seems obvious that if Tanenbaum, or any open source project used a GP license in lieu of a permissive legally familiar lic

It’s odd because the original Macintosh had a smaller keyboard without a numpad, however one was offered separately. It’s interesting because this “original” keypad has different placement or operator keys than the Plus keyboard.

I don't have this app installed, but I would use the App Privacy Report in settings to inspect the App Network Activity to see what domains it connects to and how often. While not conclusive, I think it could provide some level of insi

My understanding is that it’s a loose autobiography. I read through two thirds of it during Covid. I think it’s has an unfair reputation of being a challenging read; yes you’ll encounter new vocabulary, but the narrative itself is really in

I provide a C89 source file from Vim 6 that targets Classic MacOS/68K systems. The file is large with tons of ifdefs referencing arcane APIs. I let it know that when compiled the application will crash on launch on some systems but not

I thought the selection tool allows you to limit the area of the image that a revision will make changes to, but I tested it and I still see changes outside of the selected area which is good to know. As an example the tape spindles, among

I found Bouncer to be a good fit for me. Free, open source, and uses regex. But it doesn’t come with a block list, so you have to construct your own. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bouncer-text-messages-blocker&#x2F

I've never been a fan of the argument of how voting against your own interest is some gap in logic. To me it can mean multiple things, one could be not understanding the implications of what that vote could mean, the other is a full un
