#Apple fixes new zero-day flaw exploited in targeted attacks

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/apple/apple-emergency-updates-fix-new-actively-exploited-zero-day/

Looking forward to #macOS 29, "San Andreas", and the entire visual language is triangles for no good reason ("Every pointy bit elevates/stabs your content")

Every icon, window, menu. It's triangles all the way down.

It's not usable but revolutionary AF.

#Apple #MacOS is not intended to be used as a server OS. It is overloaded and primarily aimed at end users. That's all fine.

On the other hand, Linux Desktop's market share is virtually near zero, while the server market is huge.

So imagine Apple teaming up with #LinuxKernel development to offer first-class support for #Linux on Apple Silicon.

Then Apple announces an 1U Apple silicon power server that runs both MacOS and Linux.

Would you go for it?

#Firefox ist und bleibt mein Browser der Wahl – aber unter #macOS hat #Safari für mich ein kleines -Feature: die Möglichkeit, mir „Apps“ aus Webseiten zu bauen.

Im Dock wartet deshalb neben dem Programme-Ordner auch ein Apps-Ordner, prall gefüllt mit u. a. schnellen Proxmox, Pangolin, Uptime Kuma Zugriffen – aber auch zu Invidious & SafeTwitch und Konsorten.

Heute habe ich mir (endlich!) noch ein kleines Schmankerl gegönnt: mit Unterstützung von Claude ein #Userscript für #Invidious gebastelt, das die unsäglichen #YouTube #Shorts einfach aus den Suchergebnissen verbannt.

Pro Tip: Keyboard shortcuts on macOS are nice, but be cautious with Shift-Command-L. This shortcut takes selected text, opens Safari, even if it is not the default browser, and sends the selected text to Safari's search engine (which is Google by default ). This could lead to accidentally exposing sensitive information. To disable it, go to: Settings Keyboard Keyboard Shortcuts Services Searching.

Vielleicht hat ja jemand unter meinen Followern noch eine Idee: Ich kann die App Reeder nicht auf meinem Mac installieren. Ich hatte die TestFlight-Beta installiert und wollte auf die reguläre Version wechseln.

Alle möglichen alten Reeder-Daten wurden gelöscht.

Folgende Ordner wurden bereinigt:

~/Library/Application Support
~/Library/Caches
~/Library/Preferences
Auch der App Store-Cache unter $TMPDIR/../C wurde gelöscht.

Hat noch jemand eine Idee?

Would folks be interested in a writeup with working scripts for 100% locally #selfhosted #LanguageTool Desktop (#macOS, #Linux should work too) with full grammar checking and sentence rewriting capabilities, taking advantage of the open source LT server, #ollama, and #mitmproxy or #Proxyman ?

The upshot is #private #secure #grammarcheck with #LLM rewrites, like a secure self-hosted alternative to #Grammarly without sharing out every word you type. Awfully #hacky, but it works... #infosec
