alt tab command tab anyway through uh they've infected you with all this windows talk i know that's what they called their app if you want if you want to do windows style alt tabbing instead of the mac style uh where you have like where it's a hierarchy where you do command tab through apps and then command like tilde to do the windows within the app this will bring you through all your windows and it'll show you thumbnails so you can identify them and like that's the way you want to work you should check out these apps um

Accidental Tech Podcast

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

This is not the way I work with Windows at all, but I'm glad these apps exist for people who want them.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

There's a video of someone playing like the old AirTag versus the new one.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

It sounds different.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

I mean, I don't know if they did that on purpose or it's just a...

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

side effect of the louder chimey thing that they use to be louder and it just happened to be a different note uh but you will be able to tell the difference between the old ones and the new one as they chirp i was waiting for these because we have a couple air tags that are just like for whatever reason just don't hold the charge anymore like you know i have a ton of these little cheap little cheap coin batteries and like this one air tag like every time we put a coin battery in there it just eats it so like okay that one needs to be retired let's buy a replacement i said no don't new air tags are coming out that was like six months ago

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

They probably make more money from the accessories that they sell for AirTags than they do from the AirTags.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

Yeah, I mean, there's a million cheap things you can buy on, you know, everywhere for them.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

two dollar uh little air tag holder that lets you put it on a keychain from like amazon or something many years ago and it's made of like that rubberized plastic that like gets like sticky and tacky as it gets old yeah you gotta throw that away you know that right yeah you get what you're really toxic like yeah that's gross yeah service announcement everybody once plastic starts emitting oil uh you need to throw that away that's not good for you

Accidental Tech Podcast

The problem with the Apple ones is they're bigger and bulkier than the cheap third-party ones because Apple ones are very expensive and also very large.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

Anyway, I'll be getting new AirTags.
