Upcoming change to GitHub Actions: macos-latest will move from the macOS 14 image to macOS 15.
There's a slight change in tooling, if stuff fails, you can pin to macos-14.
More interestingly, the macos-13 image will be retired between 1st September and 14th November.
Notably, macos-13 is Intel, and macos-14 and 15 are Apple silicon.

This is a very specific #macOS and #Wireguard question.
Is there a way to start a Wireguard tunnel (which I now do manually for reasons which will become obvious) when you change your Location to specific ones?
For example:
* Location "Office" -> no Wireguard
* Location "Home" -> Wireguard to specific endpoint
* Location "Automatic" -> Wireguard to another endpoint
I know the launchd trick¹ to have it run at startup but this would be "all the time" as opposed to location-dependent:
I'm sure there is a magic macOS incantation for it
__
¹ for those who don't know how to start Wireguard at boot on macOS:

@chockenberry @rmondello > “DELETE is the absolute last thing I want to see when dealing with passwords.”
Made me chuckle;
in The Netherlands, the text to eject an external drive on macOS is: “Delete” (“Verwijderen”).
Yes. Read that again. It’s like the worse translation, ever…
They translated it *literally* instead of giving it a proper/intuitive name... #macOS #apple
all operating systems suck uniquely. find the one that sucks the least for you and use it. also, shut up about it.
It's been a few month since I switched my work environment from Linux/KDE to macOS. I'm mostly used to the new workflow, except this one habit is really hard to unlearn. I used to set up KDE so moving the mouse cursor over to a window made it automatically active without clicking it. Now on macOS, I have to click a window. Ugh.
#Linux #KDE #macOS
Quite frankly, we will tell our customers to refrain from updating to #macOS "Smear", and we will NOT use any of the ugly, and unusable new glassy UI elements in our #NeoFinder flagship software for the time being.
"UIDesignRequiresCompatibility" is your friend.
#Apple needs at least three more years to make this at least a little usable. Or drop it, and start from scratch, if they even still have people able to pull such a thing off.
Yikes.
Results of my little survey. Why is Linux growing?
19% believe it is because of sunsetting of OS versions. Microsoft is forcing Windows 11 on people and a lot of people are not happy with that and some are just not able to run it. So with a choice of replacing the HW or the OS, plenty of people choose the OS.
20% believe it is because people are just discovering how good Linux truly is.
41% believe it is a combination.
21% think it is something else, with some mentioning SteamOS as a reason.
Whatever the reason, more and more people are seeing Linux as a great choice, which is only good news to me.
MacBook trackpad: Accurate enough to be a scale
Apple's solid-state cursor field detects pressure very accurately. This is even enough to determine what you put on it to the nearest gram.

Apples Solid-State-Cursorfeld erfasst Druck sehr genau. Das reicht sogar aus, um Gramm-genau festzustellen, was man darauf legt.

#macOS und #Linux jagen #Windows in #Deutschland deutlich Anteile ab https://www.drwindows.de/news/macos-und-linux-jagen-windows-in-deutschland-deutlich-anteile-ab
Nice optimisation now available for anyone using my macOS binary packages from https://pkgsrc.smartos.org
Packages that require fortran support now only depend on the smaller gcc-libs package (7MB) rather than the full gcc package (300MB).
Once you've "pkgin upgrade"ed, remember to "pkgin autoremove" to clean up the now-unused gcc package.
This brings it in line with the SmartOS package sets.
Continuing to push back against bloat one step at a time. Next up, ghc.
