  1. I forked Bluesnooze, the tiny macOS app that stops a sleeping Mac from stealing your Bluetooth headphones.

    What I added to this fork:

    - disconnect only selected devices
    - keep keyboard and mouse wake working
    - restore previous Bluetooth state on wake
    - modernized for macOS 13+
    - pure Swift now
    - local linting and CI

  5. PamStealer:infostealer per macOS con funzionalità avanzate
    I ricercatori dei Jamf Threat Labs hanno individuato un nuovo #infostealer per #macos con funzionalità più avanzate rispetto a simili #malware PamStealer viene distribuito tramite una versione fasulla di Maccy (noto clipboard manager) e sfrutta l’interfaccia PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) del sistema operativo per validare la password dell’utente prima di inviarla al server remoto.

  7. Attacchi ClickFix per macOS e ConsentFix per Windows
    I cybercriminali cercano sempre nuove modalità per rubare dati personali o accedere agli account. I ricercatori dei Jamf Threat Labs hanno individuato un attacco ClickFix che sfrutta inserzioni pubblicitarie su X per colpire gli utenti Mac. Gli esperti di Huntress hanno invece rilevato una variante per Windows denominata ConsentFix

  12. Apple har snedkereret et open source Docker/Podman-lignende værktøj ved navn "container". Det gør det nemt at bruge Linux-containers som letvægts virtuelle maskiner under MacOS.

    Koden er Apache-2.0-licenseret, så du kan trylle med det, lige så tosset du vil ;-).

  15. Interesting... I can't remember the last time tooltips in #macOS got any sort of visual update but in macOS Golden Gate, they now have rounded corners. This also includes the auto-expanding tooltips on labels.

  17. This time I'm dealing with one of the more esoteric programs out there that I can no longer live without. It's called #Hookmark, and it lets you create links between all of your files on #macOS.

    It's a little bit more nuanced than that. Take a look at my blog entry for more info.

  19. Beta 4 systemów 26.6

    Apple udostępniło czwarte wersje beta systemów z rodziny 26.6.

    Tydzień po trzeciej becie Apple wypuściło dziś czwartą rundę testów dla całej rodziny systemów oznaczonych numerem 26.6, jak informuje MacRumors. Rejestrowani deweloperzy mogą już pobrać nowe wersje z poziomu Ustawień, w sekcji Ogólne, wybierając Aktualizację oprogramowania.

    To już ten etap cyklu, w którym Apple po prostu domyka temat iOS 26 przed wrześniową premierą iOS 27. Nie należy się spodziewać żadnych nowych funkcji, a jedynie poprawek błędów i wydajności. Jedyne dwa elementy, które warto odnotować, wracają z poprzednich bet: nowe komunikaty informujące o przekroczeniu limitu zablokowanych kontaktów oraz wciąż niepotwierdzona ostatecznie funkcja blokująca iPhone’a, gdy ktoś spróbuje wyrwać go z ręki — pisałem o niej szerzej przy okazji jej pierwszego pojawienia się w kodzie.

    Warto śledzić tempo tych aktualizacji z innego powodu niż same funkcje. Cotygodniowy rytm bet sugeruje, że Apple planuje wydać finalną wersję iOS 26.6 stosunkowo szybko — być może jeszcze w lipcu, na długo przed tym, jak uwaga wszystkich przesunie się w stronę pierwszej publicznej bety iOS 27.

  20. MacOS + Git, a question for the @silex and @vscode users

    As far as I know, there's no graphical Git installer for Mac - I mean an easy way to install git without Xcode (a ~1 GB Apple popup) and Homebrew in the terminal

    Not great if you just want version history

  22. Overall takeaway:

    macOS security threats are not standing still. Attackers are leaning harder on trusted tools, fake apps, and social engineering.

    That makes patching, careful downloads, and clear user education more important than ever.

  23. When you get a new Mac, your user account gets set up for day-to-day use. But adding a second user account has some real benefits. And while it may sound complicated, it is straightforward to do. Here we show you how to do this and why. #mac #macos #troubleshooing devontechnologies.com/blog/202

  25. Spent the past couple of days trying to eliminate all the personal data and applications from a friends 2006 Windows XP desktop PC. I must say that seeing the immense stupidity of that system, which included multiple “blue screens of death”, I have come to appreciate my switch to macOS a couple of years prior to that box seeing the light of day. macOS has its warts and disappointing moments, but I’m so glad I’m not having to deal with Windows anymore!
