Custom Magic Keyboard

Making the Magic Keyboard Home & End buttons behave like Windows.


When you started using the Magic Keyboard, your fingers are likely to fall into the habit of trying to use these Windows commands:

• Home to go to beginning of the line (failed)
• End to go to the end of the line (failed)
• Ctrl + End to go to end of the document (failed)
It’s going to the end of the document, not what I want.
• Ctrl + Home to go to the start of the document (failed)
It’s going to the end of the document, not what I want.
• Shift + Ctrl + Home to select all to start of document (failed)

Some things did work — just not what you expect:

• Ctrl + Left to go to the start of the line (worked)
• Ctrl + Right to go to the end of the line (worked)

LIFX Z-TV Backlight Apple HomeKit Smart Home Bulbs vs other cheaper options

If you want a good backlight for your we**am, don't buy a selfie-ring, buy a LIFX Z-TV Backlight.


Last year when working from home, I wanted to invest in a good back-light for my We**am.


I reviewed two options – either buy a decent LIFX Apple HomeKit Backlight, or a cheap Cygnett Selfie Ring.


I bought both, so I could review which is best.

[ Verdict: Instead of getting a selfie ring, it’s a more elegant solution to invest in backlighting for your computer monitor AND it’s easier on your eyes too. AND you can set it to automatically come on during your work hours. ]

LIFX Z TV Backlight

After one week of using the LIFX Z-TV strips, I went all out and bought 4x more. They’re amazing.

Buy LIFX online now
It’s design time.
Late at night, I’ve configured the light to automatically adjust to a deep red glow, with Apple Siri Shortcuts.
I love being able to adjust the light to suit my mood.
I created an indoor garden, which has survived 4 months indoors – only with LIFX artificial lighting.
Apple Home app allows me to setup different Scenes and schedules – AMAZING.

Apple Watch ECG App approved in Australia by Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) — 2021

On 2nd March 2021, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia approved Apple to use an electrocardiagram (also called an ECG or EKG) app in the Apple Watch.


On 2nd March 2021, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia approved Apple to use an electrocardiagram (also called an ECG or EKG) app in the Apple Watch.


There’s some important considerations, and a release date is not yet confirmed, however this is good news for Apple Watch users.


Many people have also delayed buying an Apple Watch, specifically for the release of these new health apps.


The ECG app has been available in many countries worldwide on most Apple Watch versions, since the release of Apple Watch 4 in September 2018.

[ The ECG app can record your heartbeat and rhythm using the electrical heart sensor on Apple Watch Series 4, Series 5, or Series 6* and then check the recording for atrial fibrillation (AFib), a form of irregular rhythm. *The ECG app is not supported on Apple Watch SE. Source: Apple Support ]

However, it has only just received regulatory approval in Australia.

iCloud Mail Custom Domains

When you subscribe to iCloud+, you can use up to five custom domains to send and receive email with iCloud.


From 20th September 2021, if you have an iCloud+ subscription, you can personalise your email account to take advantage of your personal domain name.

[ So instead of [email protected] you could have [email protected]. ]

Before you start

Before you can configure iCloud Custom Mail Domains, you need to register a domain.
We recommend registering a domain with Namecheap.


Find your domain name

Establish your online presence with a unique web address.
Let your business reach its full potential by registering your domain name.
Check availabilityKeep me updatedPrivacy

By registering your own custom domain, it’s a much more professional looking email address and guaranteed to boost your reputation.


Plus, it makes it easier for your to separate your personal and work email addresses – but using the same inbox.

When you login in to iCloud Settings on a desktop browser, you’ll notice the new Custom Email Domain option.

Sticky position

Sticky elements are initially treated as relative positioning, when the scrolling reaches the boundary, it will become fixed.


Sticky elements have the best features of both relative and fixed positioning. Elements are initially treated as relative positioning, when the scrolling reaches the end of the boundary, it will become fixed positioning.

This will stick to 200px from top, even when its container continues to scroll, until the container is no longer in view.
This is not sticky.
This is not sticky.
This is not sticky.extra-tall-section{
background: ;
height: 550px;
width: 500px;
padding: 20px;
}item{
margin: 20px auto;
padding: 20px;
background: ;
height: 100px;
width:400px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}sticky{
position: sticky;
top: 100px;
bottom: 100px;
}

~How does it work?

It’s very simple, we add position: sticky; to the element.


We also set either top and/or bottom positioning.


~Troubleshooting
• May not work if
overflow
is set on any of the parents elements.
• May not work if
height
is set on any of the parents elements.
• Some browsers still do not support sticky positioning.
