Virtual KVM (Mouse and Keyboard) for Windows + Mac --> Barrier

I use Windows and Mac at the same time... with multiple monitors: 1 on Mac and 2 on Windows. Barrier is one of many applications that allows seamless transition using the same mouse and keyboard on both devices without clicking on a hardware button. It's like you are using the same system.  As per normal pre-caution, please make sure the application you are downloading are safe to use (no guaranty on my end). Configuration Application used: Barrier Network: wifi When Barrier server is setup on Windows and Client is on Mac, the mouse stutters on the Mac System even though I have very fast Wifi Mesh. The best setup is Barrier Server on Mac, and Barrier Client on Windows.

Most website recommends changing option key to command key and vice-versa. I use Barrier to use the same keyboard and mouse for both Windows and Mac system. My preference is to map Command Key to Control and Control to command. Instructions for MacOS Sonoma: System Settings Keyboard Keyboard Shortcuts Modifier Key Change Command to Control Change Control to Command This allows me to use Ctrl+C, etc. seamlessly.

Import Apple iPhone photos and videos to Windows PC and Delete/Erase after import

Windows PC is so finicky for importing iphone Video/Photo from Apple devices. As of Nov. 2022, it looks like in the latest Microsoft Photo update, they don't allow delete photo after import option anymore. The recommended option is to use the Import pictures and photo option: Update iTunes to latest version Open iTunes and select Trust this PC option on your phone Open Windows Explorer Find Apple iPhone on the list (should be under This PC) Right Click on the Apple iPHone folder Click on Show More Options Select Import pictures and videos Once the application opened, go to option and select "Erase after importing" Start the process and cross your fingers If it has error during import, I recommend doing selected import and delete.

React Native + Javascript Date Time manipulation: moment and date-fns libraries

Moment developers have discouraged developers to use moments at this time due to not being built for modern JavaScript era. Day.js Installation: npm install dayjs --save Header import: import calendar from 'dayjs/plugin/calendar' import dayjs from "dayjs"; Usage example: dayjs.extend(calendar) dayjs().calendar(dayjs( '2008-01-01' )) dayjs().calendar( null , { sameDay : '[Today at] h:mm A' , // The same day ( Today at 2:30 AM ) nextDay : '[Tomorrow at] h:mm A' , // The next day ( Tomorrow at 2:30 AM ) nextWeek : 'dddd [at] h:mm A' , // The next week ( Sunday at 2:30 AM ) lastDay : '[Yesterday at] h:mm A' , // The day before ( Yesterday at 2:30 AM ) lastWeek : '[Last] dddd [at] h:mm A' , // Last week ( Last Monday at 2:30 AM ) sam
