This is depressing. Perfectly good alternatives to all Adobe have existed for many years and are used at pro level, but someone hallucinates some code with claude (which I hear was trained on code of programs like gimp and inkscape) and suddenly everyone is raving about it being the end of Adobe, though the thing they praise is at best entry level stuff. But like other snake oil sellers, they claim it will get there, though their "in one month" is now "many months"

        When working from my home office, I regularly switch between my corporate Mac and my personal Mac. Since I share the same Apple Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse between both machines, switching devices used to be a bit annoying. Most of the time, I ended up plugging in a cable just to move them to the other Mac (and of course first wasting time to find a lightning to USB-C cable).

        So I crafted "a Keyboard Switcher" which is an open-source macOS menu bar application that makes it easier to switch paired Bluetooth input devices between Macs. Instead of manually reconnecting everything, you can simply release devices on one Mac and connect them on the other with just a few clicks.

        Some of the features include:

        • Connect or release individual Bluetooth devices
        • Group multiple devices, such as a Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse, and switch them together
        • Use global hotkeys to switch device groups without opening the menu
        • Get an overview of paired and connected devices directly from the macOS menu bar
        The goal was simple: Solve a small but annoying problem in my daily workflow without adding unnecessary complexity. The project is open source, and the source code is available on my git server and GitHub. If you use multiple Macs and share your Apple input devices between them, feel free to give it a try. Feedback and contributions are always welcome!

            Just added direct file level restore INTO the guest VM object in for VE based systems.

            Directly restore files from backup to VMs in with !

            No more awkward workflow where you first have to download the file to your local machine and then upload it back into the VM.

            Requirements:
            The initial implementation has a few requirements and limitations:

            • Backups must be stored on a Proxmox Backup Server. Local backups are currently not supported.
            • The VM must have the QEMU Guest Agent installed and enabled.
            • The VM must be running while the restore operation is performed.
            This feature probably takes place in version 1.4.0 which might make it right to the . You can also meet Nico and me there!
