Any rumours pointing to an upcoming Apple 5K or 6K display that supports 120hz? 🙏
After a Sequoia update, has anyone else had to manually set Word and Excel as the default apps for opening .docx and .xlsx files?

As per the subject line; neither Word nor Excel were recognised as standard apps for these file types and I had to do it manually (and against the advice that it wasn't known that these apps would open these files). I have had to do this on more than one machine, both with Intel (i7) and Mac...

Watching the keynote — macOS Sequoia looks really compelling.

Isn't it kinda strange that Apple has a subscription thing going for Final Cut on iOS/iPadOS but keeps it a one-time purchase on macOS? Oh well, I'm not complaining!

Got around to checking out Orbstack. Simply amazing.

Happy I can stop using Docker Desktop for Mac.

Running #Retrobatch on an M3 Max chip is just magic. Resizing 10.000 images with this app takes about ~3 mins. This app seems nicely optimised to use Apple's image frameworks and those seem nicely tuned for the M3 Max.

I remember a time not *that* long ago I was easily waiting >30mins for results in similar workflows.

If you're doing anything related to batch image processing, you really should check out https://flyingmeat.com/retrobatch/

Retrobatch is a unique application for automating actions to tens, hundreds, and even thousands of images at the same time

So, I've hosed my mastodon server by failing to upgrade and having no backups... Lesson learned. I'll now be outsourcing this problem and I'll just start using masto.host 😅
I am searching for a highly flexible cat6(a) cable to complete my new home office. I need it in bulk so that I can customize the cable lengths as needed. Ideally, I would prefer a cable made of nylon or a similar textile material, similar to retro instrument cables or Apple's latest textile Lightning/USB-C cables. Does anyone have information on where I can find such a cable or if this even exists? The regular cat6 cable is too rigid and doesn't sit neatly on my desk. #HomeOffice #HomeNetwork
Note to self, always save a backup of your Unifi Controller config to save yourself 1hr of work when upgrading said controller and having to reset and re-adopt all your network gear on a sunday evening…
