new work laptop and it's time to vent again about just how _bad_ apple is at ux:
- clicking the clock doesn't display a calendar
- can't remove the clock because it's now tied into the notifications sidebar
- can't disable the notifications sidebar
- you _can_ disable desktop icons, but you have to do it scorched earth style, aka `defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop false && killall Finder` my beloved
- you can't maximize or aerosnap, fortunately there's the rectangle app for that
- the dead space around the notch is colored by your wallpaper instead of being a set color or transparency, fortunately there's the topnotch app for that
- the dead space around the notch is considered part of the wallpaper and clicking it dismisses all windows, but doesn't undismiss
- you can disable notifications, but if you forget a critical slider set to on, it overrides the main breaker switch for the whole notifications category
- the file system explorer is called Finder, good fucking god
- the _Finder_ refuses to acknowledge that this is a _computer_ with a _file system_ and only shows you a fictionalized version of your system
- seriously Finder, you're a unix-y system, etc exists, bin exists, opt exists, usr exists, the damn root directory exists, please stop gaslighting everyone
i could go on, but the cat says it's lunch time now...

Idk if anyone here is a Mac whiz, but I've been having a lot of problems with scanning software that is getting in the way of my archival work. I made a post on Reddit, if you feel like you have any advice to offer I'd love you to take a look at it.
https://www.reddit.com/r/applehelp/comments/17rmn1s/every_single_scanning_software_i_own_keeps/?
I've barely been able to get any scanning done and it's driving me crazy!

After WWDC this year, I feel more compelled to start dropping Apple devices than ever. I'm just so tired of Apple trying to tell me how to feel about the shit they're releasing instead of just showing it to me. Not to mention, I'm really pissed the laptop I bought, new, four years ago isn't getting new updates. If I'm gonna use a software that doesn't get major updates year-to-year, I could at least use something that supports more apps like Windows or is open-source like Linux. Not to mention, both of those OSes tend to have better longevity. I'm also pretty tired of buying hardware that I can't fix or upgrade for over a thousand dollars. Shit just becomes obsolete whenever Apple decides. It was a mistake buying an M1 iMac instead of a gaming PC, and I definitely won't be replacing my suddenly "obsolete" MacBook Pro with another Apple device. Had my eyes on Framework for a while. I just never expected to get the final push I needed, especially this soon.

So I just took the LSAT today and to be completely honest… wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be. Somehow finished every section with time leftover to doublecheck my work! Feeling pretty good about it 🥰 even though I pulled an all-nighter before it and still haven’t slept… 🫠
Not intentionally, mind you—LSAC’s new online LSAT Proctor software isn’t compatible with the new MacOS Sonoma 14.0… so spent all night trying to learn how to downgrade my MacOS version in order to download the testing/proctoring software before my 7am exam.
Turns out, on silicon-chip Macs (M1+), you can’t just simply downgrade or restart/reboot your laptop to the software it originally came in. That’s apparently only an available option on Intel Macs.
Instead, if you have a silicon Mac, you have to go through the complicated process of:
1. Backing up your Mac using Time Machine on some other external hard drive or disk (since downgrading completely wipes your startup disk and erases all data)
2. Setting up a Bootable Installer—also on an external hard drive (separate)
3. Downloading the version software from Apple’s App Store (the easiest part of the entire process! Though, of course, you can’t even run it until you’ve done everything else first)
4. Using the Terminal app and running the specific (in my case, Ventura) command as found on Apple’s website and proceeding with the rest of the commands to get it working.
which… don’t get me started on figuring out how to set up a Bootable Installer. This was all completely foreign to me and honestly I was two “error” messages away from a complete mental breakdown.
At 5am, I gave up and woke up my poor friend to beg her to let me use her laptop for my LSAT.
If anyone can send me a crash course on using the Macbook’s Terminal app, it would be more than welcomed!
At this point, I gotta set up a Bootable Installer just for the spite of it. Never letting myself get blindsided like this again! Will always have a backup version. Learned my lesson lol

Recover Recently Deleted Passwords On IPhone, IPad, And Mac
If you have recently deleted passwords on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac and want to recover them, you can check if they are stored in iCloud Keychain. Here’s how you can attempt to recover them on each device:
On iPhone and iPad:
Go to Settings:
Open the Settings app.
Navigate to Passwords:
Scroll down and tap on Passwords.
Check iCloud Keychain:
Make sure your device is signed in with your Apple ID and that iCloud Keychain is enabled.
Your passwords should be available here if they were saved in Keychain.
Recently Deleted:
There is currently no direct option to see a “recently deleted” section for passwords, but you may be able to find the password you need by checking each app’s settings for saved passwords.
On Mac:
Open System Preferences:
Click on the Apple menu and select System Preferences.
Navigate to Passwords:
In the System Preferences, go to Passwords or iCloud settings.
Check iCloud Keychain:
Ensure you are signed in with your Apple ID and that iCloud Keychain is enabled.
Use Keychain Access:
Open Keychain Access from the Applications > Utilities folder.
Look through the login and iCloud keychains to find the deleted passwords.
Tumblr media
General Tips:
Check for backups:
If you have backed up your device to iCloud or your computer before the passwords were deleted, you may be able to restore them by restoring your device from the backup.
Contact Apple Support:
If you are unable to recover your passwords, consider contacting Apple Support for further assistance.
Please note that there is no direct “recently deleted” folder for passwords like there is for photos, so recovery may depend on whether you have a backup available.

Resetting your Final Cut Pro trial can feel like finding an unexpected lifeline, especially for budding videographers, editors, and content creators who are still in the early stages of their careers or hobbies. Here are several compelling reasons why taking the time to reset your Final Cut Pro trial could be more than just a temporary fix—it could be a strategic move for your growth and learning in video editing.
Maximize Learning Opportunities
First and foremost, resetting your Final Cut Pro trial provides additional uninterrupted learning time. Final Cut Pro is renowned for its rich set of features, including advanced editing capabilities, innovative video effects, and powerful media organization tools. Navigating through its comprehensive suite requires time and practice. An extended trial period allows you to dive deeper into these functionalities, sharpening your skills without the immediate pressure to commit financially.
Project Continuity
For those who have embarked on projects and are nearing the end of their trial period, resetting the trial offers an invaluable extension to bring those projects to completion. This ensures that your hard work doesn’t go to waste and that you have the opportunity to finish what you started with the same level of quality and attention to detail.
Financial Planning
Investing in professional editing software like Final Cut Pro is a significant decision. An extension of the trial period provides extra time for financial planning, allowing you to allocate funds wisely or wait for potential discounts or promotions. This period can also be used to evaluate how often you use the program and assess whether the investment is justified based on your usage patterns and commitment to video editing.
Compare and Contrast
If you’re evaluating various editing software options, resetting your Final Cut Pro trial gives you more time to compare it against competitors without rushing your decision. Understanding the nuances of different editing platforms can be pivotal in choosing the right tool that best fits your workflow, project needs, and personal preferences.
Community Engagement and Support
With more time on your hands, you can engage with the Final Cut Pro community, explore forums, watch tutorials, and perhaps even contribute your newfound knowledge. This engagement can enhance your learning experience, provide networking opportunities, and offer insights into creative ways to utilize Final Cut Pro in your projects.
A Test of Commitment
Lastly, extending your trial period tests your commitment to video editing. If you find yourself eagerly wanting to use the software beyond the trial, it might indicate a genuine passion for video editing, suggesting that investing in the full version would be worthwhile.
In conclusion, resetting your Final Cut Pro trial is not just about prolonging a free service. It's about giving yourself the time to learn, create, and make informed decisions in your journey as a videographer or editor. Whether it's mastering the art of editing, evaluating your software needs, or planning for a financial investment, a trial reset can be a strategic step forward.

macOS Sonoma SMB Fix
If you run into an issue on macOS Sonoma where your SMB shares won't mount and you are using the right username and password–simply try capitalizing a letter in the username, and it may well just work. No idea why this works, but it works reliably for me connecting to my network storage on the latest release of macOS Sonoma (as of writing version 14.3.1).

I am like this close to subscribing to Adobe PS plan legally cos I'm too tired to follow the bajillion instructions on how to crack PS on Mac. I did it successfully once and then somehow Adobe busted my ass after a software update and now I'm having gif-making withdrawals... Photopea just ain't cutting it. This is a cry for help. If anyone comes across a good tutorial on how to crack PS on macOS Sonoma please reach out to me.

OS updates aren't what they used to be--which may be boring but is probably okay
I hope this post doesn't result in my having any early-adopter privileges revoked.
Procastination comes easy to me, but that usually hasn’t held up installing major operating-system updates. I typically download new mobile-OS editions within a few days of their release, while I’ve waited maybe two weeks for desktop releases despite their greater complexity and higher odds of breaking one app or another. But this season of OS updates from Apple and Google has seen me much…
