  • I don’t use full screen windows much because I do agree that they become kinda annoying to find if you have more than 1-2 open at a time, mainly because I do most navigation with Exposé and they don’t nicely integrate there.

    You pointed out that “cmd+tab” doesn’t cycle between windows, but that’s why I recommended “cmd + >” in my first comment, since that’s exactly what that does.

    “Ctrl + Arrow Down” will only show your currently focused application’s windows, it’s different from “Ctrl + Arrow Up” which shows every application’s windows. So if you just use “cmd+tab” to focus on whichever application you’re currently looking for, and then hit “cmd + >” a few times (or “ctrl + arrow down”) you should find your window pretty quickly. Just a different process than cycling through every window on Windows, but I wouldn’t call it worse.

    Unless you have like 20 windows open for a single application, I guess I could see how things could get convoluted in that case.


  • Concerning your window management troubles, have you tried Exposé/Mission Control at all? “Ctrl + Arrow Key Up/Down” will show all open windows, and all open windows from the currently used application respectively. On trackpads this is bound to a four finger swipe up/down.

    To cycle between the active application’s windows use “cmd + >” (add shift to cycle backwards), or alternatively you could right click an application’s dock icon to view a list of all its open windows.

    If you combine these with “cmd + tab” to cycle between active applications you can bring any window you are looking for to the front quick and efficiently, using only the keyboard or trackpad.











  • As a vegetarian you still pay for animals to be murdered for your personal enjoyment. Every laying hen whose eggs you eat had a brother who best case was shredded alive soon after hatching, or kept around for a few weeks to be murdered for his flesh. Laying hens are murdered once they age out of peak egg productivity to be sold as cheap meat. Cows and their male counterparts suffer similar fates.

    My point is that yes, even most well-intentioned communist humans indeed are a plague, and the planet would be better of without us.






  • My goal is to spend 20 bucks a month on physical books. I’ve been reading exclusively on eReaders since 2009, and I’ve become a little insecure about my shelves being filled only with plushies and comic books now that I’m in my 30s.
    I don’t want to accumulate too many books, but a few just to signal to guests that yes I do in fact read might be a good idea, even if it feels a bit vain.
