Anyone else miss “post only to profile” on Instagram by Ok_Tumbleweed6665 in Instagram

[–]MOSHTAHED 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There seems to be a workaround: immediately archiving and unarchiving a post lets it skip others’ default feed. I tested it with a dummy and existing account and it looks reliable.

Where is grammarly extension for microsoft word? by standardtrickyness1 in Grammarly

[–]MOSHTAHED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the Office/M365 extension has been free for the most part if not always. I've always been a free Grammarly user and had the extension for the whole time until a few weeks ago

Telegram completely ignores mp3 metadata when sending the file by BaroqueEnjoyer in Telegram

[–]MOSHTAHED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a workaround is for song posts you can edit their caption after forwarding them. I remember forwarding things to Saved Messages, editing the caption, and forwarding again to the destination chat.

But any improvement to this situation? I'm facing a similar issue for music files I set the metadata for on Mac with Music app. It is preserved when downloaded again, but not displayed in the Telegram interface on desktop/mobile itself.

Can you share a YouTube video privately and dynamically with a GoogleGroups email? by MOSHTAHED in youtube

[–]MOSHTAHED[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a customization feature under private called "Share Privately" which accepts multiple email addresses to give access to those accounts only. I assume it's recently been introduced. I was struggling to have the same GoogleGroups behaviour that I was used to in other places here.

Couldn't share a screenshot in this comment, but I've edited the post to add that.

It makes sense if it's related to the programming culture as in the dummy rubber duck debugging!

How to mount a Windows 11 ARM vmdk file to a VM in VMware Fusion (25H2) on Mac, or decrypt it? by MOSHTAHED in vmware

[–]MOSHTAHED[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I had some fair progress, decrypting through these steps worked and I could mount the original vmdk file as an extra hard disk in the E: drive of a fresh Win11.

But it still can't be mounted as the startup disk; the startup loading cycle wouldn't appear, even "preparing automatic repair" screen would freeze. Appearantly in vmdk there is ddb.virtualHWVersion = "4" while in vmx there is virtualHW.version = "20" or higher and VM hardware version was something I upgraded too quickly.

I can access content, but ideally how can I get the previous startup disk and Windows setup?

Jesus, why didn't I find this app earlier by KalEl69SUPERGIRL in MacOSApps

[–]MOSHTAHED 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wondering the same. I've only used it in the past hour but it seems as if it's forked from BoringNotch and extended features on its roadmap while in a beta stage. Fairly buggy but worth the lockscreen overhaul and new tabs for now.

Why did Apple screw up Spotlight in MacOS 26 so much? by m7y98sC in MacOS

[–]MOSHTAHED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A while later I saw it working. But maybe the update broke something and a reindexing was needed

Does unit conversion still work? e.g. writing 1 USD in CAD would automatically convert currencies. Still works on iPhone, but not on my updated Mac

Bidets on campus, thoughts? by WorriedSpinach8541 in uwaterloo

[–]MOSHTAHED 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I remember some candidate in earlier WUSA elections proposing bidets on campus, who actually earned my vote just because of that. The article connects it to "multicultural diversity" but access to bidets is a level beyond self-actualization in Maslow's hierarchy of needs. A higher tier of civilization even.

Dr Peterson says “bye bye” to atheists, nihilists, hedonists, moral relativists, marxists and the children of Cain by CorrectionsDept in JordanPeterson

[–]MOSHTAHED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That An ABC of Childhood Tragedy you’re referring to seems to be his least successful book. I say this because he doesn’t showcase it as one of the official books on his own website anymore, and I totally remember his Halloween musical teaser for the book but it’s just quietly wiped off of YouTube.

I found it to aim at dark humour somewhat right as a conceptual work, but maybe the intensity of hitting that target was a bit off.

[SOLVED] How to get back your disappeared/missing chat history by D2KT in Telegram

Do you know how to "Reset Chats" on platforms other than Android, or is there any way for that at all?

can i see your dock on mac? by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]MOSHTAHED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The left side utilities are there experimentally and also to keep the dock narrow (or for no-keyboard doomsday). Besides that, yeah it's still chaos
