• Just bought my first Mac/Apple device (Macbook Air M2)

  I want to add another tip: learn to use Spotlight Search to launch apps, search for files or make google queries. To do so, type COMMAND + SPACEBAR. Down the road, once you get comfortable with Spotlight Search, you can replace it with alternative apps like Alfred or Raycast. Using the keyboard to launch apps and open files, from anywhere, takes macOS to another level of mind-meld. Highly recommend. Source: about 1 year ago

• macOS using 7 cores and 19 gigs of ram to perform subtraction

  It seems they are using it as intended. Apple lists what op does as a supported usecase.. https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/spotlight-mchlp1008/mac. Source: over 2 years ago

• App disappeared on Mac

  Hi there, sorry to hear that. It's possible that the app has disappeared from the dock after updating to the latest stable version that was released today (v3.8.0) but should still be in the list of apps that you have installed or discoverable via Spotlight. If it's still not there, please let us know. You should be able to install it from the downloads page and it should retain your preferences, but create a... Source: almost 3 years ago

• The right way to use Finder?

  One other thing I forgot to mention is Spotlight. As long as you know the name of file or folder (or other details) you can find it quickly with Spotlight. Just click the magnifying glass in the menu bar, or press CMD + Space. Source: almost 3 years ago

Any other tools that I may be missing? - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago

• Video games ruin everything for me

  In my experience, installing something like Cold Turkey on your PC (and having someone set up Screen Time with a hard-to-guess PIN on your Apple devices, if you have any) can help prevent relapses early on when the cravings are the strongest. Source: 10 months ago

• How to block porn sites on pc?

  I use this website blocker called cold turkey blocker. You can get it here on Cold Turkey - The Toughest Website Blocker on the Internet (getcoldturkey.com) . You can type out all porn sites that you know and put a password to it. If you are a real mf then just type gibberish as the password. It forces you download this extension on all browsers and works even on incognito mode. And the best part is IT DOESNT... Source: 10 months ago
