May 18	comment	How can I adjust the apparent color temperature of my display in OS X? Here's a bonus tip: a command-line utility to set the display brightness (ie in lieu of the F1 and F2 keys). hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20090901021817717

May 18	comment	How can I adjust the apparent color temperature of my display in OS X? Maybe I don't understand the difficulty, but can't you just set F.lux's daytime slider to 2700? When you say "sometimes", do you mean algorithmically predictable times/dates? If so, then a script would solve your problem. I think it's possible to write a script to force F.lux to a certain daytime temp (or nighttime for that matter).

Apr 25	comment	Text unselected when clicking to activate Terminal window (OS X Lion) Thanks again, but this can cause yet another headache: all the windows that are activated during cycling are also brought to the top (as expected), disturbing the stacking order of other apps' windows. I keep some term windows behind everything else, and would like them to stay back there when possible. Yeah, I'm picky. Nice try though.
Apr 25	comment	Text unselected when clicking to activate Terminal window (OS X Lion) Thanks. I knew about the keyboard shortcuts, but usually nothing beats clicking the window itself. If I have 3 terminal windows on the current desktop, Cmd+backquote may take me to the window I didn't have my eye on.

Mar 21	comment	How can I install Adobe Flash manually or without giving root access? Why is it not any safer? Can executables in the pkg be run when a pkg is installed? What would these look like in the pkg file? Btw, the pkgutil terminal util can unpack (--expand) a pkg file.

May 13	comment	Is there a way to password protect individual apps? @Austin you're entitled to your downvote of course, but I don't understand your reason. I think my caveats and paranoia sections should be enough to indicate that this is not meant to be a secure solution - it's only a deterrent. I added your caveat, but it's essentially the same idea behind caveat #2. Also, the OP said that he/she didn't care about another person reading "already retrieved emails".

May 12	comment	Is there a way to password protect individual apps? Wow, 3 upvotes in 4 hours? I didn't expect too many people to use such a hack, especially since you have to create one applescript for each app you want to protect. I'd like to hear how people are using my solution, even if just for learning new tricks.
