your favorite little computer program hoonja-doonja (mac version)

i use the launcher gesture all the time. it still gives me a little minority report thrill.

i have the bottom right corner set up as show desktop. the corner hotspots are great because they work while you're dragging a file (unlike gestures). i use it a lot to drag files from browsers, etc. to the desktop without needing to hide windows.

You mean you don't always have a .5cm square of desktop on, err, which corner is it today, that you drag things to??

ha!

you have to sort by date modified on desktop imo. then the most recent nonsense is always top right. and with that hot corner, bottom right shows the whole shitshow.

hmm…don't trust it

that was my reaction - bitcoin miner, bot need, what is it?

PCalc 4 life

otm

what's wrong with the default one

no RPN no credibility

RPN all the way. Using the HP theme for full effect.

i was a math major but i could just never get with rpn

huh, interesting. i was viewing a pdf in preview, and outside of that i updated the underlying file and generated a new pdf for it, and preview automatically redrew the newest version. wouldn't have thought it would do that.

it does do that, very useful for TeX things.

Search box is my calculator

lol yes it me

someone described Pro Office Calculator as the Frog Fractions of calculators. if that sentence is not gibberish to you, it may be worth playing around with

hmmm. so it's NOT really a calculator, you're saying

i mean, it DOES work as a calculator, for a while

the finder sorts numbers in filenames in a natural-language order now!

e.g.

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
07
8
9
10
11

Didn’t it always?

huh i guess the internet says it's been there since 10.0, which would mean i should have noticed it before 10.14. but i came up on system 7 and unix and got used a long time ago to prefixing the filenames i wanted to sort right with 0s

i'm still getting so much delight out of my time-warp OS upgrade, what a wonderful life

apple does this according to a sanctioned alternative of the UNICODE COLLATION ALGORITHM

gonna try to master this multi-touch gesture:

Show desktop
Spread your thumb and three fingers apart to show your desktop.

i always forget about that one

i already forgot it

same

yet here i am doing it now, thinking about useful it would be

i still use fingers-together for launcher and feel like a boss every time

best reminder app for macos? like something that can just flash up the word "posture" every 30 minutes

i have settled on Time Out - it's v good

DENTAL PLAN

i just excitedly searched the app store for "dental plan"

saxamaphone, $3.99, reminder app but only for telling to get the reeds for the thingy that your daughter plays

my new coworker uses Time Out to trigger breaks, seems like there's a lot of configuration you can twiddle depending on your behavior-modification needs

bah Time Out wants me to pay a subscription SORRY MY DUDE THAT IS NOT THE WAY OF THE HOONJA DOONJA

playing around with these pomodoro things to see if i can make one work for what i want

If you spend most of your time in a browser there’s probably an extension that does this

Stand up! https://getstandapp.com

Maybe this is the hoonja-doonja Tracer Hans is looking for.

Of course it’s probably going to tell Facebook you are slouching.

hoonja doonjas must be software only!!

Chris i think yours is exactly what i'm looking for

xp what kinda dark angel fuckin shit is that?!?

Beta of Reeder 4 is out https://beta.reeder.ch

I love Reeder; fantastic app

is it better than instapaper?

Free trial of Rhino 3D

reeder is a feed reader, whereas instapeper aiui is still a bookmark/offline reader for articles you have already found and want to bookmark or read.

Although the latest version seems to have some Instapaper-like functionality too

got it

I stopped using instapaper for Pocket after instapaper stopped working well. Pocket is way better.

I use reeder on my phone but find Feedbin so good that I just do all my feed reading via browser.

instapaper works now, fwiw

i tried pocket for a few months during the great data protection fail that felled instapaper but several times it grabbed just the first few grafs of a story, which was just enraging
