Running the codes will empty the Trash, but remember to reboot your computer afterward at your convenience. While the error itself is unlikely to affect your entire computer, —if, of course, the deleted file was not system critical— privilege related errors tend to keep spawning until you restart a computer, even if Finder says you have a total access to the file.

Test Multiple Zip Archive Files on macOS
Note that not all files flagged as error-ridden will produce an error when decompressed. Both this method and the GUI utility relies on the unzip command from the same package, which was originally released in 1989. It is why the GUI utility and even the command itself is literally a can of worms. Unzip was originally released for classic Mac and Linux, it then later ported on OS X, creating another incompatibility between the standards. This is why simply switching the default encoding on Text Edit cannot display properly; Text Edit is displaying the contents with UTF-8, but with different…
Downgrade APFS to HFS+
With everything considered, it is safe to assume APFS simply does not work with spinning drives at the moment. At the current price range SSD is flying, it is unlikely HDD will be completely phased out on consumer products. Instead I find it more likely for hard drives to survive another half a decade just for backup purposes or a hybrid configuration, much like fusion drives. I expect Apple to release a follow-up on coming WWDC.
Take Screenshot on macOS
Most of the Mac related documents would simply use the icons for shift(⇧), control(⌃), option(⌥), and command(⌘), instead of writing out everything. If you happen to have trouble finding the right keys, you can look for the icons instead. These icons are also inscribed on most of the Mac keyboards.
Block Suggested Apps on Windows 10
I personally don’t understand where did Microsoft get an idea to create an ad space on a local PC. If this was implemented as an option on public spaces, libraries and such, at a discount, I would have reluctantly agreed. If this was an option provided before the paid upgrade, —although Windows 10 was a free upgrade in the first place— much like how Ads on Kindle work, again I would have accepted the idea. But blasting an ad on a local screen is a computer from The Exorcist, to quote The IT Crowd.
How to Make a macOS Bootable Disk
I can’t stress this enough, but try to keep a bootable USB handy with the most recent version of OS, at the very least up to the most recent major release. (i.e. keep a copy of 10.13, if 10.13 is the most recent major release) Also if you happen to do regular fresh-install on your computers, I highly recommend using Time Machine. It can come in very handy to restore important files after a fresh install.
Manage the Partition Auto Mounting on macOS
Let me know if there is any issue.
Stop Windows 10 from Downloading Unwanted Apps
Now Windows 10 will not auto download apps on your work computer. This decision to download apps in the background is just a shooty behavior. We may or may not see this spreading to other Microsoft-owned apps, but until then, hopefully this will block the intrusions.
How to Disable auto-add to Quick Access on Windows 10
Now you can rearrange the items in Quick access and Windows will not tamper with your picks.
Install Ubuntu Updates via CLI
Be that as it may, this is definitely far from user-friendly approach. There should be a one line command that deals all of this “intelligently”, and when necessary, more apt user can explicitly provide arguments to control the flows manually. But until then, you will be running with 3 lines of commands every time.
Compress in Tar with XZ algorithm on macOS
Simply replace two bracketed items and run the command, and you are good to go. FYI, Terminal will not give you any visual progress bars. So unless you are absolutely certain compressing has come to a grinding halt, just give it some time. Xz is notoriously slower compared to gz, but it comes with higher compression rate. Try different methods for different purposes.
Duskers Quicksaver

Known Gmail Tricks and Its Usages
All of these tricks could make using Gmail worth it. But again, use it at your discretion Stay on top of your own device, and don’t let it lead to your demise. Google can easily decide to stop supports for these tomorrow. These are neat tricks, which I would love to see in my work email, but almost always never happen.
How to Upgrade Stock Fans on AKiTiO Node
After all this modding, I had to come to the terms that competing products with ‘just works’ approach are more sound solution. The only defense for Node, at this point, is that you can upgrade your eGPU down in the line to make a power-hogging, yet silent, real deal workstation. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, the new generation of enclosures will need streamlined design with customization in mind, much like PC cases, with significantly lower prices; and it can’t look sweeter than it should.
Force Spotlight Indexing on macOS
What annoyed me even further is the fact that there is no direct way of monitor indexing, other than guessing it from activity monitor. Soon as I find out, I’ll update the post to cover that area.
