Which #HEX editor do you guys recommend using on which platform? Is there any app that works on all three? (#Linux, #macOS, #Windows)

Don't really need anything too fancy, also don't mind paying for a really well supported and quality app.

I've been looking at 010 (https://www.sweetscape.com/010editor) as well as HexEd.it. First one seems really powerful, but not sure I need that to edit bios and EC firmware files. Second is a web app with all due limits.

"Dev Mayur từ Ấn Độ đã tạo teleprompter cho macOS bằng Electron 🖥️. Ứng dụng trong suốt giúp đọc script khi gọi Zoom/Meet mà vẫn nhìn thẳng vào camera. Thử thách lớn: điều khiển phần cứng webcam (khóa tiêu cự & phơi sáng) bằng UVC driver và tạo cửa sổ 'click-through' để tương tác ứng dụng phía sau. Đang tối ưu hiệu năng ✨ Dành cho người dùng Mac!

komorebi for Mac playing nicely with Ghostty's native tabs on macOS (+borders +animations +monocle mode) 👻

Coming January 2026 (this month 😮)

#ghostty #terminal #macos #apple #komorebi

After experimenting with #cachyOS, I’ve decided to stick with #MintLinux for now. Some of the apps I enjoy using are only available for Debian-based distributions.

Or any other Distro recommendation for someone who comes from #MacOS?

🌘 如何辨識真實的密碼請求
➤ 掌握系統原生細節,守護 macOS 認證的最後一道防線
https://eclecticlight.co/2025/12/18/how-to-recognise-a-genuine-password-request/
在惡意軟體試圖竊取憑據的數位戰場中,辨識密碼請求的真偽是使用者的核心防禦手段。macOS 的安全機制雖然強大,但最終仍需依賴使用者在點擊確認前的判斷。本文深入解析了 macOS 系統原生認證對話框的解構細節,從鑰匙圈存取的圖示疊加規則,到 Touch ID 的生物識別行為,甚至是終端機(Terminal)中獨特的視覺標記。透過掌握這些由系統 API 生成、難以被第三方軟體精確偽造的視覺特徵,使用者能更有效地識破偽裝成系統通知的釣魚陷阱,確保個人資訊安全。
+ 這篇文章非常實用,以前從沒注意到終端機輸入密碼時那個「小鑰匙」圖示竟然是辨識真偽的關鍵,受教了。
+ 雖然作者說開發者很難完美偽造,但對於一般使用者來說,養成「預設懷疑」並優先使用 Touch ID 確實是更安全的
