Last night our new Amazon Prime show The Mighty Nein had its world premiere on YouTube. Judging from the live chat reaction I'd say it went down quite well. Honoured to be a part of the this great Titmouse crew! The series will air weekly on Amazon Prime from November 19. Check it out!

@myke.social I too am having issues with Spotlight in macOS Tahoe 26.0.1. It can find Apps, but not contacts or files. However, I just realised that I can find files through Finder's search tool, which is truly bizarre because Spotlight and Finder use the same database under the hood. 🤷‍♂️

@fakegreendress.bsky.social @adobe.com @adobevideo.adobe.com 🤔 Any known issues with After Effects and the new macOS 16 Tahoe that launched yesterday? The Adobe macOS compatibility page has not been updated for Tahoe at time of posting. helpx.adobe.com/download-ins...

Saw Jurassic World Rebirth. The whole premise that people are "bored of regular dinosaurs so we need to make mutant dinosaurs" is absurd. Nobody is bored of zoos. People queue in long lines to watch a lone panda sit around and do fuck all. No, we are just bored of this franchise.

I wish Apple had re-named the much improved Files app to Finder in iPadOS 26. With menu bar support, multiple draggable windows, and column view, it's Finder in all but name! So of course I used the classic Shortcuts custom icon trick to right this wrong! #WWDC25

I firmly believe that the phrase "A watched pot never boils" should be replaced by "An eagerly anticipated delivery never arrives". Out for delivery MY ARSE.

@fakegreendress.bsky.social Please make the text of AE alerts selectable. It would really speed things up, when writing jsx with ChatGPT, if I could quickly copy and paste an error into the message field instead of tediously typing it out 😂.

Well done, Universal Studios. Well bloody done.

Drove 350 miles through a rain storm to hang with the awesome Star Trek: Lower Decks cast and fellow crew at the series wrap party, meeting many of them for the first time in person. Totally worth it! 🖖 @mikemcmahan.bsky.social @tawnynewsome.bsky.social

@fakegreendress.bsky.social Hey Victoria. Can you look into making the Interpret Footage > Preserve RGB setting accessible via scripting? When automating a pipeline, not being able to access this via a script is always a stumbling block. #AfterEffects

Strange new greeting card trend at Whole Foods. The envelopes have the same designs as the actual cards. SPOILER ALERT.

Since 2001 it’s been my New Year’s Day tradition to drag last year’s emails into a new folder, mark them all as “Read”, and never look at them again.

Got the Bay Area Tsunami warning whilst on the phone with the speaker to my ear. I’ll be ok at my current location, but the alert siren almost blew out my eardrum.

Loving the "Age yourself with your first computer" posts on #RetroComputing. Here I am in 1985 playing on our Commodore 64 – which I still have! I graduated to an Amiga 1200 in 1992. In 1999 I switched from hating Microsoft as an Amiga fanatic to hating Microsoft as an Apple fanatic. It runs deep! 😂

A handy browser extension to find the Bluesky account of people you follow on Twitter! Just open the extension on your Twitter Following page. Once it's done scanning you'll want to scroll the list confirm it's the same person on BlueSky. For me, most of them were.

Good lord. If this doesn't perfectly illustrate the Mac vs Windows experience, I don't know what does.

Changing the mouse scrolling direction in Windows 11 requires 16 steps including obtaining the device ID, editing the registry, and a reboot.

On macOS? A single click.
