Tried to make an application using Applescript within Automator on my MacBook Pro but I couldn’t save it as the required Command Line Tools were not present in the Library.
However, they were available on the iMac and when copied across I was able to create a simple app to sleep the Mac. It’s in the Applications folder in my Home folder & in the Dock as well. Clicking on it puts the Mac to sleep.
@variablepulserate Conditionally, yes. You still need to selecvt the explosion timer mode, but it will retain the set timeframe.
One of the other social media outlets I contribute to (a fork of Mastodon) has added a new feature called “Exploding Toots” for its paid members. Prior to posting, you click (or tap if using the phone app) on a timer icon, then you can determine how long the message stays on the system. See screenshot for time options.
This is a nice change in the weather. It’s 9°C at 4am. The previous two day those figures were reversed, being 4° at 9am.
My toes appreciate the difference, no longer demonstrating classic Raynaud’s Syndrome symptoms. No longer numb & no longer white.

@joeo10 It’s possible (at least in Australia) to deny Zoom access to China-based servers, although when so set, a warning is given of possible service degradation.
I’m a big fan of Jitsi as well, it’s more effective with older folk who don’t have much in the way of online computer skills.

@joeo10 Credit unions are still quite large concerns, although a newer ban company encourages smaller communities to raise funds to open a community branch which account holders own a tiny parcel of non-voting & non-dividend shares. Such shares are required to open an account.
These local community banks have a reputation for donating to local groups.

Seems the latest wave of Covid hitting us is the Indian variant. Entire State of Victoria goes into lockdown for at least seven days starting tonight at 11:59 PM.
A five km limit is imposed, you can leave home for any of five reasons: education, caregiving, food and supplies, exercise for two hours and to go and get vaccinated.
