1. Night Shift color profile on macOS

    So you like your iPhone’s Nigh Shift mode and want to do the same on your MacBook?

    Open Display Preferences > Color tab
    Click Calibrate…
    Continue until you get to Target White Point
    Uncheck native, and drag the slider all the way to the left
    Continue, and name the new profile “Night Shift” or something

    Now you can switch back and forth between the Color LCD and Night Shift profiles as desired.

  2. Insert a linebreak in Facebook comments on Ubuntu

    As a new Ubuntu user, you may have just discovered, to your dismay, that Shift+Enter does not insert a linebreak or new line in a Facebook comment.

    Try Ctrl+Enter.

    (Or, if you’re like me and you remapped Ctrl to Cmd, Cmd+Enter.)

    Firefox on Ununtu 16.04. Please let me know if this is true in other Linux distributions.

  3. Correct color rendering of Adobe Illustrator CC 2015 Save for Web... PNG images in Firefox

    Adobe Illustrator CC 2015 doesn’t save *any* kind of color profile with the PNGs it generates using Save for Web…  these images render correctly in Chrome and Safari, but not in Firefox 45 on OS X.

    A workaround, possibly a solution, is to use unix pngcrush utility to add an sRGB chunk. Anyway, it worked for me.

  7. Ultimate Spider-Mite Solution

    Spider mites decimated my houseplants this summer. I show them no mercy with daily application of insecticidal soap, but this looks like a more permanent solution for some plants. Wilt Pruf is a product that helps protect plants from excessive aspiration, but it also seems to be like a tarpit trap for tiny mites. Heck yes, if the plants survive the treatment.

  10. Storage space on my phone is disappearing | Apple Support Communities

    This has been bugging me for weeks - I deleted a bunch of photos because of low storage, but it turns out to be a bug. Signing out of iTunes & App Store instantly changed my available storage from 204MB to 3.9GB. Grrrrr.

  11. Freeze panes freezes unselected rows and columns

    Excel for Mac 2011
    I was going about freeze panes all wrong. Don’t Cmd-select the top row and first column. I was doing that and Excel froze the first 13 rows and 12 columns. Unfreeze, start over.

    Put the focus on cell B2, or whatever the first *unfrozen* cell should be. Then freeze panes. That solved my problem. Thanks for the tip, Bob Ryan.

  13. iOS 8 - Automatically answer calls with Bluetooth headset

    For some reason, iOS wants to answer calls with the internal speaker, rather than my bluetooth headset.

    This article shows you how to fix that. Cheers!

  14. Apps | Tumblr

    So when you add a custom description to a link that you post from the (updated) bookmaklet, and then go back and edit the link, your custom description disappears.

    This is serious suckage, Tumblr. Why why why?
