I hate that by default #macos hides scroll bars at rest. I mean, look at that settings tab in #FaceTime. It appears to show everything, but there's more if you scroll down which isn't obvious because scroll bars are hidden.

The fix, for you and future Carlo […]

The perspective on them drive icons, though – fuck me, what are they smoking over there

Learned about higher numbers (20+) today, and folks, it was WILD. How do you pronounce those, how are they written? Let's consider this very real example, 97:

EN/SV: "90 + 7"

DE: "7 + 90"

JP: "9 * 10 + 7"

FR: "4 * 20 + 10 + 7"

DK: "WE HOPE YOU ARE GOOD […]

Useful tiny #fish #llm function:

--model openrouter/qwen/qwen3-coder

If you're getting all tingly just thinking about #remedy's #control game, and would like some fine reading that goes along so well with it, don't sleep on this: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/antimemetics-division-hub

There's a properly edited v2 of this coming […]

On the phone: "Hello Mr Police, I'd like to report a TRUE CRIME. Just look at the goddamn perspective of that goddamn standard #tahoe drive icon"

My #obsidian + Contacts + #shortcuts mini #crm is making good progress. This is fun. I had hoped that I would be able to only use core plugins for it, but Bases alone doesn't cut it – no way to get the vault name inside a Bases document, it seems, which is […]

Wenn es um Web-UIs geht, macht niemand #microsoft etwas vor!

(Also, vielleicht machen sie Microsoft etwas vor, aber Microsoft passt einfach nicht auf.)

Dear #apple, I hate this so fucking much. My app requests permission to control Shortcuts Events. Customer grants it. All is well …

… until the machine is rebooted, and then the permission needs to be granted *again*. This is ridiculous. #macos

@marioguzman It looks terrible to me. But since devs are preparing for Tahoe, there are already several app updates that backport this great look to Sequoia et al.

I'm happy to announce the biggest update yet for my contextual #macos Shortcuts launcher, BarCuts. Productivity Frens, let me tell you: It's a banger!

This update adds a new floating panel to #shortcuts for linking ("tagging") apps to workflows (before, we […]
