    duncannah got a reaction from StarsMars in Question about pulling files from Mac harddrive   
    That iMac doesn't have the T2 chip, so I think it could be doable. You'll need to use some software to read the drive on a Windows machine.
    This one might work, read-only is free: https://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/
    Though, if FileVault was enabled, it might complicate things.

    I still wonder about the technical specifics of this "detection" by the public Wi-Fi. Even though Snapchat is not E2E, it should still be using HTTPS.

    The simple answer is that they've made an error while linking to the website.

    But seriously, no.
    And if you want help you should probably give more details.

    It seems like f3 is a common choice on Linux and macOS. It's available on Homebrew, but there's also a GUI frontend for it called F3XSwift.
     
    Though, I have no experience with this.

    Maintained by a single person with no credibility, behind on software updates (Latest version is M117 while latest Chrome update is 119)...
     
    Does the supposed performance gains weigh over the numerous cons of using an amateur fork? I doubt it.

    1.9 million subscribers and 3500 videos hosted by YT for free..... and complaining about being censored. 
     
    It is like those political book writers who sell millions of books and talk in 20 news shows every week about how they are being censored and can't propagate their message.

    There's nothing else like here any more. The forum format makes it a great place to talk and have substantial conversations, especially compared to 'modern' social media.

    duncannah got a reaction from IAmAndre in Why can't I use a mouse properly on my Mac?   
    I have an MX Anywhere 3 and I encounter the same problem, the cursor jitters a lot too. The thing is, I didn't have this issue with my previous very cheap mouse, so the culprit is most likely Logitech... Maybe uninstalling their software (Logi Options) might help things, but then I can't configure many essential functionalities, like the scroll wheel stiffness, or the side buttons. I'll definitely be avoiding Logitech in the future
     
    EDIT: This is a recurring issue with Logitech mice on macOS:
     
    A reply in another thread, uninstalling the Logitech software fixed it for them:

    duncannah reacted to WereCat in PCs on desk or floor?   
    Unless the PC case is tiny I see no reason to have it on the desk at all, it's just a waste of desk space.
    I've got this desk on wheels for moving heavy crates for like 10eur and it's the best thing I've done for my PC case, it's so easy to move it around when I need to clean or access the rear side.

    duncannah got a reaction from wanderingfool2 in What is [50-99] in regular expression?   
    Here's an explanation from Regex101:

     
    So it matches 5 and 9, but it also matches 0-9 → it's the same as [0-9].
     
    You should definitely try out Regex101, I use it all the time when I need to write some RegEx.

    duncannah got a reaction from shivajikobardan in margin-inline and padding-inline?   
    Inline margin and padding follow the text's writing direction and orientation. It has two directions: start and end.
    So for example, for regular English text (Left to right, horizontal), start would be the equivalent of margin/padding left, and end would be the equivalent of right.

    On some computers, a supervisor password needs to be setup before you can change the settings.
