How can I get the tar command to show me the hidden resource fork files in an archive?

Is it possible? If so, how? If it matters, I am using macOS Sonoma 14.7.2. As a test, I created the following folder: ``` $ tree tmp tmp └── myfile.txt ``` I then created an archive by doing: ``` $ tar -czvf tmp.tar.gz tmp 07:59:02 a tmp a tmp/myfile.txt ``` I ran the following python code: ``` import tarfile tar_file = tarfile.open( "tmp.tar.gz" ) for member in tar_file.getmembers(): print( member ) ``` and it output: ``` <TarInfo '._tmp' at 0x11b938b80> <TarInfo 'tmp' at 0x11b939000> <TarInfo 'tmp/._myfile.txt' at 0x11b938c40> <TarInfo...

Help with Mac Mini Color Mode

My Mac Mini M4 is currently connected to my Alienware AW3423DWF and can output only 10-bit YCbCr Limited when HDR is on. Is there a way I can change it to 8-bit with Dithering RGB Full Range mode with HDR still on? I even bought BetterDisplay, but it doesn’t show me the option to enable what I need. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Disappointed by new M3 Air 13”/16/512 performance. Lags while multitasking. Help! :|

Hi nice people of this sub, I’ve been nerdy about tech for maybe 15 years, and have gone the whole arc from android/pc-gamer teen (who *wants* save money) to Apple ecosystem adult [new iPhone16pro, MBA, and a 2yo iPad Air] Not gonna lie, it’s insane to own any of it and pretty damn fun! However, I’m particularly disappointed by my MBA’s performance. Is it supposed to lag while doing the following together: extend display to iPad, run software for external keyboard+mouse, run 6-7 pdfs, 40-50 safari tabs, 2-3 pages...

Old iPhone DIY project: Constantly available Continuity Camera

I’ve got an old iPhone lying around that I’d like to repurpose as a dedicated Continuity Camera for my Mac. The idea is to have it permanently mounted in my home office so that it’s always ready for video calls or recording, without having to fumble with setups each time. I’m curious if anyone has tried something similar and what challenges you encountered. Here are a few things I’m pondering: * **Staying Awake:** How do you keep the iPhone awake and connected without it going to sleep? Any settings...

Best Way to Switch to a New Macbook but without having the Second Macbook

Hey guys, As the weird title suggests. I have a Macbook M3 Pro that needs to be returned and I will get a M4 Air. Since the M4 Air isn't out yet, I won't have access to it when I have to return the M3 Pro. So what's the best way for me to back up everything from the M3 Pro so that it sets up the M4 Air exactly as I have done with M3 Pro? The Apps, the wallpaper, widgets everything. Thanks for the help.

File Sharing on MacOS - "connect as" confusion

Hi I've got a question with regards to file sharing on mac. I just upgraded my personal device to a M4 Pro MBP running 15.3 Sequioa. My old device is a 2017 Intel MBP still running 10.15.7 Catalina.

MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1 - iMac Magic Keyboard issue

I recently updated to MacOS 15.3.1 and now am experiencing keyboard issues on my iMac \[M1\] Magic keyboard. When I try and use the shift key in conjunction with any of the numeric keys on the Bluetooth iMac Magic keyboard the corresponding symbol does not get produced. Instead the shift-number key combination seems to act more like a keyboard shortcut. For instance Shift-7 does not produce an ampersand, it instead brings me to the Systems Settings window. Very strange. Anyone else seeing similar behavior with their keyboards?

In Sequoia, how do I keep more than one window open at a time?

Dunno if it's just me, but I couldn't find the solution to this with Google. I updated to Sequoia. After the update, multiple windows doesn't seem to be a thing. If an application is not in focus, its window minimizes. This feature is absolutely useless to me and it makes my workflows impossible. How do I turn this feature off?
