  • I did a speedrun of this sports analytics Excel case in 8:27 - the case is also available for FREE so you can try!
    Looks awesome! I'm curious do you do any drills or training to practice this stuff? I have been using shortcutfoo.com to memorize shortcuts and get faster. (Just for my job) Just wondering if you have any resources you use. Source: almost 2 years ago

  • Mimic Touch Bar screenshot functionality on non-touch bar M1 MacBook Pro
    If you want a fake (yet fully functional) touchbar on your screen, you could use something like: https://github.com/sindresorhus/touch-bar-simulator (I used that for a while on my 2017 mbp). Source: 11 months ago
  • Picture-in-picture for all videos that works on Safari 15 / Monterey?
    Baking soda or Fulifier would on most sites but not iPlayer apparently. However (without any need for an extension) I can use PIP on any compatible website via the button on my touchbar. Perhaps until you find an extension, use touch-bar-simulator? Source: over 1 year ago
  • Why does my new M1 Pro MacBook think it has a touch bar?
    Did you try a restart? It’s bizarre that’s it’s using so much virtual memory too. Only thing I could think of it virtual Touch Bar simulator, but I think you would probably know if you were using that lol. Is it possible there’s an app doing something similar? Also, side note, what do you use to rearrange your menu bar? It looks great. Source: over 2 years ago
