Microsoft Windows PowerToys: “Always On Top” utility
- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/always-on-top
- https://defkey.com/windows-11-shortcuts/win-ctrl-t-109516
This utility comes bundled with PowerToys.
Sometimes I hit the keyboard shortcut accidentally (Win+Ctrl+t). Having certain windows (e.g. a browser window will all its tabs) pinned like that results in conflicts with KeePass – you cannot make that window “the other window”, that KeePass pastes the credentials into. So I “always” have to find the shortcut to restore the ordinary state. That’s why this article is here.

my MacBook on macOS Sequoia does not connect to the Apple Store
My MacBook cannot connect to the Apple Store and update the utilities. It can also not get new utilities installed.
It is actually on macOS Sequoia Beta 15.0 . I am looking forward to the next release of macOS Sequoia. Hopefully this MacBook will be able to connect to the Apple Store again then.

Homebrew on Synology NAS
- https://github.com/MrCee/Synology-Homebrew = MrCee/Synology-Homebrew on GitHub
- I think this package screwed my NAS
- amongst other things I think it did “chgrp -R root” on my HOME directory #WTF
- it turned my DiskStation upside down
- this “homebrew” is also called “linuxbrew”
- after upgrading to “DSM 7.2.2-72806 Update 1” my diskstation needed this:
$ sudo ln -s /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/glibc/2.35_1/bin/ldd /usr/bin- https://github.com/ublue-os/bluefin/issues/1079 – “brew install llvm” fails with “Cannot write: No space left on device” #1079
- there was a dependency on llvm … – the filesystem in question is tmpfs (?!?) mapped into the RAM – setting the HOMEBREW_TEMP environment variable to /var/tmp
- this was also necessary: “$ ulimit -n 1024”
