Just shared my WezTerm¹ configuration. It’s not very long and mostly just adds a few keyboard shortcuts that I find more ergonomically-pleasing, specifies light/dark themes and improves colour scheme consistency and also, if you use Helix Editor², automatically implements light/dark mode theme changes for it in line with the rest of the terminal.

On a large desktop monitor, macOS 26 was ok. On a 14" MacBook Pro, it is repellent. Dark mode is a particularly ugly kludge. Why does Apple have to fuck with things? At least give us some options to turn the wildly curved corners off.

Accidentally clicked the update thingy on the work laptop so now I have the MacOS version everyone hates.
In dark mode it's not as bad but it's weird how certain OS ui features feel very sluggish.
Didn't like MacOS before, this update did not improve that impression.

Working on a website for a while until you look at it in chrome and it's horrible and you remember your dark mode plugin has been messing with it to make it look sane and dark. 😆
Gotta remember to turn these things off for the sites you're developing.

Well-written post, especially the “About Phanpy” part 😉
Very cool to see this.

I thought I'd killed my trusty #turrisomnia but it turned out my tinkering had left it and the recovery partition in a very old broken state. Fortunately after failing with a cheapo usb key I did get a more recent factory image on it. I now realise quite how fast back the system was because everything is dark mode by default now with a nice onboarding process.

"I have always believed in deeds, not words."
As the ongoing Russian attacks keep crippling our infrastructure (as seen from a cold unpowered home with a failing cell connection), I am left with few options. One of them, ruminating before sleep on a strange recurring phenomenon. If not careful, we become what we fight.
We're not infallible. It's the values we keep, the tradeoffs we make to succeed that shape us.
Be vigilant. Watch yourself.
And stay sa…

Morning!
How is *everyone*?
I've gone back to light mode for my tech stuff... I was finding dark mode a bit opressive 😅
I finally bought a new phone case as rawdogging it without one (after the silicone fail) was causing me deep anxiety.
Also, now using notbor.ing Weather app using accuweather as a source as Apple Weather was consistently incorrect for my location. #Apple #iPhone #DarkMode #LightMode #Weather #App
