I appreciate all of the privacy and ethics-associated reasons why it is preferable to start a Windows 11 installation with a local account, but if I could just add one more...

When you use a Microsoft account to do so, the operating system still requires a fucking username for the name of your user directory (because a local account must be created regardless, yes,) and all it has to go on is the email address you used to set up your Microsoft account.

A few years ago when I first installed Windows 11 on my home PC, the email address still associated with my primary account was ihadtopee@gmail.com.

So, what do you think my user account folder was named? You'd probably assume it'd be ihadtopee, right?

No. Through whatever process they set up to decide upon this, Windows 11 came up with ihadt.

Perhaps it makes me a superficial person, but that shit bugs me far more than anything else about the whole thing.

Depending on the generation of CR-V, I suppose - and without any hard math/stats despite how hard I've tried - I suspect the net impact of your relative driving it for the rest of its usable life vs buying a brand new EV to be significantly less, considering Lithium mining, curb weight, etc.

Datestamp horror.

 

does anybody have/know of any still-working apps/services for creating mocked-up images of single Tweets?

It occurs to me that I'm late in addressing this and panicking a little bit lol... Given the state of things, it definitively no longer makes sense to embed them imo... (publish.twitter.com stopped working a few weeks back, anyway, which was a real wakeup call lol.)

... but obviously, I still come across Twitter content I absolutely want to retain every day.

(if you're still not sure what I'm talking about - the exact same function as Re:Toot's exclusive purpose, but for Tweets instead of Mastodon posts.)

I've inadvertently spent more than an hour this morning going back through my favorite old methods and loosely classifying their current states. lmk if anyone desires more details on that.

 

Mocked-up iPhone 15 Pro screenshot of an example result of my File Reminder shortcut.

I created this Shortcut to address a long-present and costly need of my own: interlinked, visible task management per single files of all types. It has begun to assist me in slowing the accumulation of redundant/duplicate/forgotten/lost files across all of my various file systems.

Out of the box, this version requires Toolbox Pro for its whole function.

Video Demo

Shown are two methods:

  1. Running the Shortcut independently (which will show a file picker.)
  2. Running the Shortcut from the Share Sheet.

Setup Steps

  1. Choose native Apple Files tag(s) to attach to the input file. (Optional)
  2. Customize behavior of the Change Case Action. (Optional)
  3. Customize the output format of the File Size detail. (Optional)
  4. Choose a List in Apple Reminders in which to add the Reminder result. (Optional)
  5. Choose whether or not the Reminder result will include an Alert. (Required)
  6. Choose the priority of the Reminder result. (Optional)
  7. Choose whether or not the Reminder result will be flagged. (Required)
  8. Choose tags (in Apple Reminders) to attach to the Reminder result. (Optional)

Howdy folks!

Pretty straightforward ask: though Timery for Toggle new charting features + corresponding Shortcuts action are incredible and almost certainly all I'd ever need, I was wondering if anybody out there had ever taken the time to integrate Timery data with Charty via shortcuts actions.

Thanks!
