@al3x@hachyderm.ioI have disabled and re-enabled Spotlight indexing hoping that the index was the issue. (why would a bad index crash the app is a different question).
Spotlight crashes continuously.
At this point it is completely useless.
Apple doesn't have a store in Romania so there's no way to handle this but alone.
Incredibly frustrating experience.

@publicvoit@graz.socialIt’s hard to justify #macOS #Tahoe icons

Another good example how
@al3x@hachyderm.ioOn Tahoe 26.2, I bring up Spotlight, enter a few characters, Spotlight displays some results, and then it simply disappears in under 1 second.
Has anyone seen this behavior?
Is this something specific to my machine?

My apologies for directing this to you as you are the best position to have heard of it.

@lil5@social.linux.pizzaSo the #MacOS convention is to only sometimes use ~/Library/Application and sometimes ~/config
Yes perfectly normal to have 2 competing standards for configuration files

@nohillside@smnn.chThe icons in the menu entries on #macOS Tahoe are confusing and distracting. This article explains it in detail. https://tonsky.me/blog/tahoe-icons/

BE THE ELDRITCH HORROR YOU ALWAYS KNEW YOU WERE
It's pretty great, put in 8 hours so far.
The general gist of the game is strategic, puzzle-like reveal of map levels - capturing cards of creatures and humans, wrapping them in your blood sucking vines, and generally conquering all.
When you get stuck, spend some of the blood to open a card pack and get random helper tools, effects, and critters.
Sounds are superb and visuals are very 𝒜𝐸𝒮𝒯𝐻𝐸𝒯𝐼𝒞 - if you dig Cult of the Lamb or Darkest Dungeon, you'll probably enjoy it.
Only downside is that there's an occasional indicator that English is not the primary language of the game developers. Very rarely you can see untranslated Chinese text on-screen, one or two oddities (uncapitalized, punctuation slightly off). This is unfortunately probably why they're getting a little beat up in the Steam reviews.
Honestly, in my 8 hours so far, I've noticed it like 3? 4? times tops so far. The game is so very much my jam, it really hasn't bothered me.
Some people are also reviewing it as "too linear" - they definitely gave up way too early. There are SECRETS, side areas, choices you can make, intentionally difficult areas that will take some thinking to unlock, etc.
Currently 10% off right now, give it a shot!

@timbray@cosocial.caMy Mac is running hot, apparently because “WindowServer” is locked on 47% of one CPU permanently. Known bug?
[Update: Turned out to be a random open-source app.]

@al3x@hachyderm.ioIs there a known solution to send a link from any non-Safari #macOS browser to Safari's Reading List? This is possible on the iPhone as part of the Share actions.
I'm mostly interested into how to do this from Chrome and Firefox based browsers.
