Doesn't matter. It's a combination of both for dGPU or iGPU, I'm afraid. Use the analog loophole to send to the producer.

Alfred is complementary to Spotlight more than a replacement. It can do simple file finds and a whole lot more, but Spotlight is still what you need for deep searching.

I installed Alfred more than a year ago and haven't found myself using it once. There's an initial "neat!" factor that goes away pretty fast.

I use Alfred as a complete Spotlight replacement but I admit I've literally never used Spotlight search, which seems to work very well from what I've seen and heard. It really comes down to the fact that I know how to develop plugins for Alfred, but I have no clue how to get started with dev on Spotlight, so I've just stuck with it.

Posting from my 'new' mid-2014 rMBP. Just slapped High Sierra beta 3 on it and did a clean install onto a APFS case sensitive volume. Booting from the same volume. No HFS+ in sight. Can't wait to do this with my unsupported Macs. It's a pain with the beta on unsupported hardware so I'm waiting until its out of beta.

Alfred can be way more powerful than spotlight if you add the right recipes to it. However sometimes just clicking 2 buttons can be way more convinient than typing an command...

does anyone know why safari will sometimes prevent you installing extensions from .safariextz files unless you turn on full keyboard access and select 'Trust' using the tab key and the spacebar? this is such a bizarre bug https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/214760/force-installing-untrusted-safari-extensions

I guess the 'sleep' timer is no longer a thing in 10.13 Not sure how it works but my MBP does sleep and I can't disable it from the energy saver prefs. I normally wouldn't care but I'm doing some battery poo poo. Shaocaholica fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Jul 19, 2017 |

Having UPS stuff automatically come up in Power when you hook up a unit with no drivers or extra software is super cool. Haven't had the balls to pull the cable yet to see how well it works (if at all) but soon. Maybe.

Man what the gently caress is up with using AirPods on MacOS? They don't work without skipping at all without turning BT off on my 6s+, thus rendering my Watch useless. Any ideas?

Yeah the only thing I don't like about BT is it can't read my mind to decide which device I want to use my headphones/speaker with so I'm always having to either disconnect or disable BT on my phone, computer, laptop, or Apple TV.

On a side note I just found out you can output to multiple Bluetooth audio devices at the same time with a Mac. This is great for on a plane when 2 or more people want to watch the same movie without a tangle of headphone wires.

I'm trying to use ffmpeg to concatenate like 30 mp3s into one mp3. They've all been renamed to file1.mp3, file2 and so on. I used: ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i <(printf "file '$PWD/%s' \b" ./*.mp3) -c copy output.mp3 And it spat out an error about a possible growing file and output.mp3 was just a copy of the first file in the list. What gives? I ended up just using mp3wrap but I'd really like to get ffmpeg working because then I could adjust the quality at the same time and work with mp4s as well.

Edit: I ended up double checking on the concat page on the ffmpeg site https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Concatenate Here is the example they use for the exact thing you're trying to do (except with .wav files). It looks like your \b is cocking things up. code:Proteus Jones fucked around with this message at 23:55 on Jul 19, 2017 |

I'm assuming concatnating MP3s is tricky and they all need to be the same bitrate and sample rate. Did you check if MP3 was even supported for concatnation?

I think the best thing to do would be to convert them to AIFF, normalize and concatenate, then convert the finished product back to MP3. That way you're working with straight audio streams and not trying to stick 30 different formats of MP3 together.

Out of curiosity, I saved my System Info report from 10.12.5, then ran the combo update to 10.12.6. Noticed that the BootROM was updated from MBP111.0138.B25 to MBP111.0138.B40 on my late 2013 rMBP. I'm sure other machines will have updates to their BootROMs as well.. Apple and their subtle updates.. at least it explains why the update takes so long, it's probably flashing the firmware in the background.

Binary Badger posted:Out of curiosity, I saved my System Info report from 10.12.5, then ran the combo update to 10.12.6. I noticed my rMBP 11.1 has a boot rom that's newer than what's on Apple support pages. Maybe because I have High Sierra Beta installed? And it needs some EFI magic to boot from APFS? I read that APFS booting was just boot strapped from a helper partition during the preliminary testing phase. Not sure what's affected if they just go that route for public release as opposed to doing it natively in EFI. Sorry if I have no idea what I'm talking about.

The BootROM update may well be a futureproofing for AFPS, but Apple shut up about documenting their firmware updates years ago. I've noted Apple only ever did a few hidden firmware updates in El Capitan, but it seems like they do it with every new revision in Sierra. I wonder if it's to somehow prevent hackers from doing what they did for the Early 2009 Mac Pros, which was to create BootROM updaters that flashed the Early 2009 machines to Late 2010 MP's, thereby allowing machines that formerly were stuck at El Capitan to have Sierra/High Sierra compatibility. It pretty much works there as Late 2010s only differ from Early 2009s in CPUs included, logic boards and internal components are nearly identical.

Hackers can get around that by just faking the BootROM version. I have two installs of Sierra, and only the first I updated also updated the firmware. You can tell because it requires two restarts instead of one. Fortunately, it's not erasing rEFInd every time. It would suck to have to boot into recovery each time I updated to reinstall it.

Shaocaholica posted:Heh, I figure a guy trying to concatenate mp3s probably doesn't give a gently caress It's for audiobook chapters so you're right, and I think converting them on both ends would work well because then I can lower the bitrate to save space! I'll give that a shot and try out the n instead of b option in printf. It's actually my first time using it so I don't really know what I'm doing there.

Lol Adobe. This doesn't make any sense. Nothing is prohibited in a case sensitive file system if your source files are from a case insensitive file system unless you have lovely code that references files using the wrong case. Shaocaholica fucked around with this message at 06:10 on Jul 20, 2017 |
