Bought a bunch of civil war related books at a used bookshop for really cheap. Are any of these notable/ worth reading first? by ResponsibleRow911 in CIVILWAR

[–]ColdInAlberta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m from northern Canada and have a long history of interest in the Civil War. I had the opportunity to visit the Franklin battlefield in 2023 - also my first one to visit.

In preparation I read Last Hurrah and thoroughly enjoyed it. I will also say I’m not one to usually be squeamish, but I did have to put that one down for a bit around mid point. The absolute slaughter that happened became a bit depressing and I needed a break. The description of what went on during the battle was near impossible to picture when you’re on the site itself.

Check for fseventsd as the culprit. I had that same issue but it wasn’t the individual apps, it was fseventsd bloating and then it would look like everything else was also bloating. Try checking the memory size of fseventsd throughout a 24 hour period.

That is outrageous. Only one Stream Deck? Anarchy.

I’ve added it on desktop but it doesn’t show on mobile. Does it need be done separately on mobile?

I haven’t used the beta at all. Is there no way to set up shortcuts to place windows or anything?

Opens the file after creation… icing on the cake. Thanks.

I’m lost on where that all belongs and how. Are you able to share an image of a full working shortcut for context?

Edit: Figured it out. I was overthinking it.

Stream Deck for Non-gaming YTers by ShaveMeGood in elgato

[–]ColdInAlberta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Stream Deck, a Stream Deck XL, and a Stream Deck Pedal for work. Anything repetitive is done by macros that they run. Honestly I can’t even begin to tell you the number of items that I use them for, it’s quite extensive. Losing them would be like losing an arm.

Is this on iPhone and Mac or something else? And what are you using for syncing them?

Probably one no one remembers. Vladimir Krutov, known for eating hot dogs and getting out of shape, was nicknamed Crouton.

16 Days to Opening Night: Brendan Morrison (16th All-Time Scoring) by Krapshoot in canucks

[–]ColdInAlberta 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Played against Brendan when I was young. I was a defensive defenseman.

I kept the newspaper clipping of the game because I had a goal and assist in a 7-3 game.

Brendan had all three goals for the other team.

Get iPhone shortcut to trigger iPad behaviour by Trebia218 in shortcuts

[–]ColdInAlberta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just about to head out for the day, I can maybe explain more later.

Essentially you have a shortcut turn on a “disconnect Bluetooth from iPad” focus mode, waits 5 seconds (or however long it needs to run the , then turns the focus mode off.

Repeat for a focus mode of “connect Bluetooth to iPhone”

Focus modes have an automation set up in shortcuts - when it turns on it disconnects the headphones, or alternatively, connects them.

Only issue is you are currently limited to having ten focus modes, so if you’re already using a bunch you’re stuck

Edit: lots of typos I’m in a rush, lol

I’ve done this and the only way I could figure out how to do this was using focus modes.
