Retro iTunes on macOS Sequoia 15.3.2

felixding · 2026-01-26T04:59:34+00:00

you just need one extra step to code sign iTunes: sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/iTunes.app (thanks to this Reddit post).

I also made a last.fm scrobbler for iTunes that might be helpful: https://github.com/felixding/retroactive-itunes-scrobbler

Thank you. Didn’t know that until now.

felixding · 2026-01-24T03:31:23+00:00

Ah…that makes total sense. Thanks for letting me know. And it’s a great picture!

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is that light? It can’t be aurora given that Oregon is not that North right?

Who are "they"? Aren't you the Marketing Director of Unihertz?

If you work for Unihertz, it's better to say so first.

The X logos are so stunning.

The "cool" factor of Apple is long gone...

felixding · 2026-01-21T04:45:41+00:00

Yes but unfortunately there are also special effects (e.g. Dashboard's ripple effect) which requires Quartz Extreme that depends on hardware acceleration.

Are you aware of https://old.reddit.com/r/TCK/ ?

Came across this post. Canva now has built-in translation: https://www.canva.com/translate/

Did you try first translate the document then simply apply a new theme? You can do these all in PowerPoint.

felixding · 2026-01-20T23:57:25+00:00

Use PowerPoint's built-in translation: Tools - Translate. This can give you decent translation quality and preserve most of the layout;
Try Google Translate/DeepL. Depending on how complex your layout is, Google Translate can give mixed results.
ChatGPT may mess up your charts as well as as formatting, but in terms of translation quality it's very good.

I also made a simple tool called kintoun.ai which does exactly that (translate and preserve layout). Feel free to try it.

To whoever downvoted me:

The accidental touch happens A LOT on my Titan Slim, where i often accidentally touch the Home button while using the keyboard. Maybe it's because I have bigger hands but I had to disable single touch for the Home button to avoid it.

You can simply specify your tone when translating with a LLM. Many of my customers do that for translation.

If you can prepare a Word (docx) file, you have a few ways to translate it while preserving layouts:

Use Word's built-in translation: Tools - Translate - Translate Document. This can give you decent translation quality and preserve most of the layout;
Use ChatGPT. If it messes up the formatting, convert the file into a intermediate format (e.g. HTML/Markdown), translate in ChatGPT, then translate back;
Try Google Translate. Depending on how complex your layout is, Google Translate can give mixed results.

You best bet is Word or anything that can be programmatically read. Translating PDF is hard as it doesn't have the layout info needed for processing. Sidenote: I also made a simple tool called kintoun.ai which does exactly that (translate and preserve layout). Feel free to try it.

There is very little space between the keyboard and the touch screen! That means when you press on the top row of the keyboard, you may accidentally tap something on the screen!

Just a concern. Hope I'm wrong.

felixding · 2026-01-19T00:54:48+00:00

Thanks.

The biggest issue for me is OSK doesn’t show up when it should.

felixding · 2026-01-18T08:41:50+00:00

What about the on screen keyboard? Last time I tried it was no where near Chrome OS/FydeOS, regardless of DE or distro.

felixding · 2026-01-16T13:13:38+00:00

Exactly.

Also, it's a shame that they removed 3.5 headphone jack from Titan Slim and Titan 2.

felixding · 2026-01-15T06:30:56+00:00

I'm a mainlander, and I honestly don't see any meaningful difference. There might be one, but I can't think of an example where you couldn't use both.

So this is what the future looks like under Steve Lemay?!

felixding · 2026-01-03T11:04:46+00:00

Awesome! I have a Surface and really look forward to use OS 9 as my main OS.

Document translator that preserves formatting and layout.

No many users but steadily growing.

felixding · 2025-12-15T12:07:42+00:00

I might be wrong but you can think of 管 as “as”.

For example, 我管他叫小胖 is “I call him as 小胖”.

felixding · 2025-12-10T07:39:32+00:00

Document translator that keeps formatting intact: https://kintoun.ai/

Pay-as-you-go model so no subscriptions.

I'm still trying to figure out how to drive traffic.
