After two months of work, i'm so happy to be able to share Accessible Virtual Machine, or AVM for short. AVM lets blind and low-vision Mac users install and run Windows 11 on Apple Silicon entirely with a screen reader — no sighted help at any step, from download to hearing JAWS or NVDA speak. AVM was coded by Claude, but I’ve spent countless hours testing it before releasing it for wider testing by you. First tester build is out now, free and open source: https://github.com/allisonfm85/accessible-virtual-machine/releases/tag/v0.1.0 #accessibility #a11y #VoiceOver #macOS #blind

With Apple phasing out AFP in macOS 27 and Time Capsules officially reaching end-of-life, it's time to move network backups to proper SMB.

If you run a FreeBSD server, you can build a fast, rock-solid, and secure Time Machine target powered by ZFS and Samba - neatly isolated inside a FreeBSD jail using Bastille.

Keep your macOS backups running smoothly via SMBv3 (with full vfs_fruit support) and full dataset quota control on ZFS!

One of the things I find deucedly frustrating about modern #macos is that SO MUCH of the mechanics of actually making full use of your machine are either undocumented or woefully under-documented.

And because they change so often, searching for help on the internet VERY often yields just plain wrong information.

Take for instance the struggle I had trying to simply set up an automount for my home NAS share.

How the !$@# is that even supposed to work? After wasting hours combing through man pages and making unsuccessful attempts, I finally got it working with the help of infernal machines 3:< but I put the script into a Github repo in case others might find it useful.

https://github.com/feoh/macos-nas-automount

But this is the kind of crap you just don't need to struggle with on Linux. NFS/Automount interfaces have been around FOREVER and are fairly well documented.

@lproven on how we lost more advanced #computers:
https://liam-on-linux.dreamwidth.org/98868.html

"So we went backwards. [...] Out went multiple different purpose-built OSes for different purposes and platforms. Out went using the best language for the job and the best platform and OS for the job. And out went #GUI-only OSes.

Instead, in came the lowest-common-denominator, stupidest, simplest, but !!FREE!! #OS that could with a tonne of work do everything.

[...]

1980s computers were all amazing and very cool.

1990s ones turned into boring beige boxes, as dull as staplers, but there were occasional flashes of brilliance - most of which you couldn't afford.

Then by the 2000s nothing was left but staplers. It's all just office equipment now.

Devices like modern phones and the #ReMarkable make me want to cry, they are so stupid and so clunky.

I watched my chosen field go from bold and innovative to a sad bunch of efforts to polish turds. It is heartbreaking."

“Apple should end their prohibition on shapes in MacOS app icons”

There's a lot you can say about macOS, but one thing Apple used to be incredibly good at were making beautifully crafted, detailed icons. As with almost every other aspect of macOS, this deteriorated sharply over the years, with the recent macOS releases with Liquid Glass being an absolute low point. Not o

#macOS

I saw this and my first though was 'Come on! The #Almquist shell has never been ported to #macOS before 2026⁈ It must have been there since the #NeXTStep days, surely. Someone has simply not known about it because xe never thought to look up the name Almquist.'

https://github.com/dotike/fsh

So I went looking.

Mad as it may seem, from what I've found so far, an Almquist shell on macOS does not turn up before 2025.

https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/dash-shell

Nary a mention of Almquist on Apple StackExchange.

It looks like macOS went straight from the C shell on NeXTStep to the Bourne Again shell.

But macOS has had a Korn shell for decades, right?

A tale of two path separators

In macOS, you can apparently create files and directories in the Finder with names that include slashes. If you then go into the terminal and take a look with ls, you'll see that the slashes are actually colons.

I don’t understand all the nuances, but I know this is a side-effect of the fact that macOS has not one but two path separators: the slash (/) and the colon (:). The

#macOS

Just read that #MacOS #Tahoe is the last one that will support Intel-based #macs, and it only supports some 2019-2020 models.

So that means that #Apple is targeting six or maybe seven years of hardware support.

That's an e-waste empire, guys.

Alt...

A ginger tabby cat looking down at us, saying "Pathetic."

A few months ago, I set myself a simple goal: understand the operating systems I use.

The journey has been fun, but there’s always a bit of fiction along the way.

Spend a week deep in the #FreeBSD world, then switch back to #MacOS or #Arch, and you quickly realize how much your own muscle memory slows you down.

So I built and open-sourced UPKG:

https://github.com/seuros/upkg

UPKG gives you a single package management command across operating systems.

It doesn’t replace the native package manager. It simply provides a consistent interface so you can use the same commands everywhere.

On macOS, it can completely replace Brew.

If you’re thinking about moving to BSD, install UPKG first. Get comfortable with the syntax, then when yo a’re ready, drop the 'u' and use pkg directly. Or keep using UPKG if you prefer.

PS: Nothing here is vibe-coded. I read the source code of every target package manager and wrote a proper wrapper around them.

My MBP M1 Tahoe is almost freezing daily. Unuseably slow. Can't figure out why.

If I run any of the stats monitoring tools I know, CPU and memory seem to be fine. Same with drive space.

Appears to be something to do with the filesystem. Open apps run fine, until they try to do something like spawn a terminal instance, or try to retrieve a list of files.

Too many files open? Failing drive?

Ideas?

is there someone on here who uses #pkgsrc with #macos ?

i can download #alacritty with pkgsrc now, but the version it installs for macos doesn't seem to be the version i can download from github -- it isn't installed to /Applications and has to be bootstrapped via Terminal.app to run.

are there any clever/simple ways to rig this up? am i missing something obvious?
