Mac and More, "Quick" Update!
Brad Chin
Hey, everyone. Things have been hectic and stressful around here, but I’m hoping to get some writing finished today and tomorrow. I was going to write about markdown and apps straightaway, but I want to address recent revelations about the theft of customer information at Target — the 2013 Black Friday hacks. I don’t like the way Target is handling it, and I’ll explain why in detail. I found out about the severity of the issue because of an email target sent! but almost didn’t trust it because their email is super-sketchy and looks like phishing spam!
I hope that you aren’t affected by Target’s negligence and the data thieves. Everything about identity theft is stressful.
Also, I want to share more Mac OS X (Mavericks) tips that I’ve come across, in particular:
- How to get rid of (disable) the pesky, nigh-useless (redundant, slow) OSX Dashboard… and how to get it back again later if you change your mind.
- How to access the iCloud Photo stream without opening iPhoto.
Sort of like my post about removing apps from Launchpad, these are a few things that I wanted, and believe that it may be of interest to other Mac users.
Last, if you like strategic cards games and anime, check out Tanto Cuore.
Superb gameplay that really doesn’t have much to do with anime or maids. I’ve been a bit obsessed with Crunchyroll recently.
If you’d like a 48-hour all access pass, leave a comment about your favorite anime or drama, and send me an email!
I need some way to send you the code :-) I only have a few, and it’s first come, first served!
Well, if you get Tanto Cuore and want to play it with me, you’re at the top of the list. ;-)
