Hi,
Just wanted to add a brief description of my recent experience with performance
problems:
I have had pretty sluggish performance for a while on my macbook pro 2020. Not

system much.
I had some time Friday evening so
Hi,
Make sure all the txt files are in a folder and in alphabetical order.
Then in the terminal:
- cd to the folder where the txt files are stored
- cat *.txt >> ~/Desktop/combined.txt
- You should now have combined.txt on your desktop.
- Note the path to your desktop is ~/Desktop with a cap D.

Hi,
The compose tweet button has actions associated with it, so if you select
actions in the rotor and swipe up/down you should find create a new space.
Let me know if that doesn't work for some reason.

Another option is you can add the screen recognition to the rotor and that way
it’s accessible if it accidentally gets turned on for a particular app.

Hi,
I think it is under verbosity/text. You can change the announcement of
text to be the character to the right of the caret.
Sadly I have found this to be unreliable. That is, it works some times and
other times it announces the wrong character.
I found it too flakey to use anything but the

I got a beta invite for this last weekend.
The beta is $99/mo and $499 for the terminal.
You get a beta for that amount and only 150 mbps approximately based on the

Just my $.02.

I aim hoping I have missed something, but I can’t seem to figure out how to get

Ideally, there would be a way to get Voiceover to announce the number of spaces

Short of that, is there a way to

Hi,
This works exactly the same way on the Mac. You just touch the key and it

If they have the NFC chip built-in you can just touch them to the back of the
