An AppAddict Review for your Mac - AltTab - the Mac application switcher doesn't show you open windows like its Microsoft equivalent. If you miss that behavior, this FOSS app recreates it in macOS. This review has info on other choices for app switching as well. #Apple #Mac apps.louplummer.lol/post/what-…
in reply to Lou Plummer 💖

I find alt+tab to be broken on Mac, generally. So many times I tap it to switch between windows and simply doesn't work. It's most often with VSCode and Firefox, but that could be because they're the apps I use most often.

A stunning #Roman amber flask, found in Aquileia, dating 1st/2nd c. AD.
Aquileia's position at the end of a main amber trade route resulted in its becoming a centre for the carving and distribution of Baltic amber across the Roman Empire.

»Die Entsperrung eines Mobiltelefons durch zwangsweises Auflegen eines Fingers eines Beschuldigten auf den Fingerabdrucksensor des Telefons kann auf die deutsche Strafprozessordnung gestützt werden. Das sagt das Oberlandesgericht Bremen (OLG) in einem Beschluss vom 08.01.2025 (Az. 1 ORs 26/24).«

Ich kommentiere das nun nicht, sondern verweise auf das GrapheneOS 2-Factor-Fingerprint-Unlock-Feature. 👇

Da dürfte man mit einem iPhone mit Face ID relativ sicher sein. Einfach die Augen schließen oder wo anders hinblicken.

Kampanj mot sillfiske i Östersjön med falska argument. Inte bara falska argument utan också helt missriktade krav. Det är vad som gäller en kampanj som lanserats av Coaltion Clean Baltic (CCB) och Naturskyddsföreningen mot sillfisket i Östersjön.

Pixelfed & Loops Kickstarter Campaign Just Launched


To celebrate the release of the Pixelfed Mobile app going live on the Apple App Store & Google Play Store, we’re proud to be launching our first Kickstarter campaign.

The Pixelfed Team builds open source and ethical social networks for the masses. We aim to be the first Fediverse app with a billion people by taking on the worlds biggest players using open source standards. Designed and built for a better society, to bring us closer together without tracking or surveillance.

I've gotten some odd vibes from him (his recent posts hyping up Loops and Pixelfed have slightly manic energy to them), but I'm curious what you find weird about him.
in reply to Chozo

Exactly that. He comes off as manic. Doesn't seem to be good at working with others. I just get a really bad vibe like he's doing it out of ego.

Ed Martin, a conservative activist lawyer, will be in charge of the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington D.C.
which has overseen the 1,500-plus prosecutions related to the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol.
Trump granted clemency in nearly all of those cases on Monday.
Mr. Martin has served on the board of a group that advocated and raised money for Jan. 6 defendants.
In his first official act in the U.S. attorney’s office, he filed a motion to dismiss all of the Jan. 6 cases still pending.
Typically, when a new president is elected, most of the 93 U.S. attorneys from the previous administration resign and,
until a replacement is nominated and confirmed by the Senate, their deputies serve in an acting capacity.
That changeover period can last months.
In this instance, however, the Trump administration seems determined to quickly place its picks in key posts.

The New York and Washington federal prosecutors’ offices tend to handle a host of politically sensitive cases.
