#Macstodon now runs in the latest bleeding-edge build of the Snow emulator! And if you use Snow's built-in HTTPS stripping, then you don't have to configure WebOne or another proxy, just install Macstodon and start using it 😎
Thanks @twvd for the FPU fixes and all the other hard work you put into Snow! This is the kick-in-the-pants I need to get the next version of Macstodon out the door 🙂

Okay, so... In light of all this government surveillance and hacking going on, I'm in search of a true proper fully anonymous, secure encrypted messenger. I tried to like Signal, but with the US Gov using it and it being infiltrated, I don't think I trust it, anymore.
(Don't worry. I'm keeping Telegram for all the folks who won't use anything else because they're Stockholm'd babies afraid of new experiences or refuse to use other apps because they're stubborn fussy brats. Just don't expect me to use it much because it's unsafe, AI-infested, and loaded with censorship bots.)
I also want to send in-line images and videos, and also other files to my friends, without an absolutely lame af size limit like 100MB or less. (Ideally, there should be no limit, or a very large limit like say, 2GB.)
The messenger can be either P2P or distributed/decentralized.
Element/Matrix looks okay but it's designed for business, enterprise, corporate, IT, and white collar office nerds who use things like Slack, Teams, Zoom, etc and need their whole communication system integrated into a single app.
Wire seems to be going this route as well.
Tox is a newer one, and seems to have the right idea about personal chat apps, but their own website states that it is unstable and being heavily developed so there will be lots of bugs and other issues.
Session looks like a great contender, but it's pathetic file size limit of 10MB is abysmal and completely unacceptable.
I'm running out of options, here.
If anyone has any suggestions, please share.
(and don't be a smartass and suggest that I code my own, because I can't and won't.)

My favourite app on macOS:
Dayflow is a native macOS app (SwiftUI) that records your screen at 1 FPS, analyzes it every 15 minutes with AI, and generates a timeline of your activities with summaries. It's lightweight (25MB app size) and uses ~100MB of RAM and <1% cpu.
If you use local ollama, it's 100% private, local. Open source.

Thanks #Adobe.
I had 129.07 GB of CACHE for After Effects, an app I HAVE NOT OPENED since 2023 that I have had UNINSTALLED for months.
(This is on Mac).
Absurd.
I’m done with my #Mac storage cleanup.
I deleted:
- cache for two Adobe apps that have been uninstalled months ago (After Effects and InDesign)
- cache and apps for two browsers I haven’t used in months (Chrome and Arc)
- cache for a Mail account that I haven’t opened in years
As a result, I cleared 227Gb of local storage and deleted 370,000+ files.
Kind of crazy how much bloat accumulated from so few apps.
Thanks #Adobe.

Does anyone know if anyone else makes/sells curved transparent “covers” for flat LCDs so that they can be fitted to CRT cases? I have bunch of classic #Mac s where analog board is beyond repair and two have broken tube. I can easily design so-so replacement to power logic board but with my education and will to live would not touch #CRT stuff with 40cm isolated rod. #retrocomputing

Hiya! I'm an over-the-road #trucker, originally from the #Midwest. I'm gay as fuck, (still) single as fuck. When I'm not criss-crossing the country, I like to explore #technology (I'm a #Mac, but also #Ubuntu,) eat lots of comfort food, take in a #baseball or #hockey game, and other random things including visiting #Canada often. I'm a bit reserved and #introverted, and like to enjoy things at my own pace. I'm trying. I sometimes pretend I'm a #coyote. #introduction

Setting up a new #Macbook and just going great!
1. Had to configure the Wi-Fi, timezone, etc. 3+ times before hitting the desktop.
2. Terminal settings hung multiple times, preventing force quit and full computer restart.
3. Switching to zsh completely borked my terminal because I was missing tmux.
Being a lifelong #Windows / #Linux user, I'm trying to keep an open mind with the new #Mac, but this is really hurting my brain.
You use Cmd / Option instead of Ctrl / Alt, which is a well-known pain point and I'm trying to work with it, but it's so much worse than just learning new hotkeys.
Most Ctrl operations on Windows are Cmd operations on Mac, but that's not universal. Ctrl+Arrows on Windows moves words, but it's Option+Arrows on Mac, not Cmd+Arrows.
You can't just think of this as "Mentally swap Ctrl and Cmd".
I'm using an external keyboard with Ctrl, Win (Super), and Alt keys. But none of those exist on Mac. Ctrl means a completely different thing, Super seems to be Cmd, and Alt is Option?
Cmd+C / Cmd+V for copy paste feels reasonable, but that's not what I'm typing. I'm effectively typing Super+C / Super+V and just confusing my muscle memory even more when I need to use the embedded keyboard rather than my external one.
Maybe I need to internalize Super = Cmd?
Is there an iPad or Mac video editing app that can organize and tag my library of videos and clips? Editing features don't need to be too complex, but library management is a must.
I'd rather not do this in Finder. Too basic and inflexible for what I want. Paid is fine.
Let's pretend for a second that #Linux and #Mac don't exist.
Why the hell are so many people using #Windows 11 on personal computers (personal use)? Even people that absolutely despise AI continue to use it. A little critical thinking would cause one to question why.
Windows 10 support may be "officially" dead, but anyone who can Google would learn of #TSForge, which gives you years of #ESU, and therefore, no reason to use Windows 11 in place of Windows 10.
I have managed to get Windows 10 operating on the latest hardware, including my Strix Halo tablet. I even got the WiFi 7 driver to install.
My PC (or any Linux or Mac in general) is faster than yours, if you're running Windows 11. I can pretty much say that no matter what hardware you have. /r
