The Tectra Sidebar just got a design overhaul!

6/24/2019

 
When I created the Tectra Sidebar, I mainly focused on features and compatibility. The design was not my top priority. However, that has changed with the latest update to the Tectra Sidebar, version 1.2. This update improves the Sidebar's design, introduces a new way to customize it, and adds a handy new feature. Keep reading to learn more!

Design improvements

The Tectra Sidebar has gotten several design improvements in this update. It now uses a nicer font and has flat buttons. I have to admit, the Sidebar looks really nice!

Customization

You can now change the color of the top panel in the Sidebar. Make it unique!

Always on top mode

When you enable always on top mode, the Sidebar will stay in front of other Windows. Pretty handy if you're viewing something in the browser!

Bug fixes

This update fixes a few small bugs. Yay!

What's in John's Backpack? (EDC)

I may no longer be a computer science major, but I'm still fascinated by electronics of all kinds. That's why I take great pleasure in writing about my "everyday carry," that being the devices that I regularly take along with me. These are often being swapped around, as I am an enthusiast at heart, but some of these have stuck around for a long time. So, here's the list: Phone: iPhone 15 Pro (128 GB) It's a very nice phone. That's about all I have to say about it. Like most people, I'm pretty apathetic toward iPhones. I prefer iOS for my needs, and it does what I need it to. 'Nuff said. Laptop: MacBook Pro 14" (2023, M3) I feel bad for my MacBook Pro. It gets tossed around in my bag, is constantly being used, and has a fair few battle scars. But it keeps on going. This laptop has gotten me through college thus far, and I'm hoping I won't have to replace it for a few more years. Watch: Apple Watch SE (the newest one) I swear that this i...

I love my Instax Mini SE. Here's why!

Hey, folks! I did it. I finally got into instant photography. And I love it. Admittedly, I've had some experience with instant photography before now. I got my first instant camera at a thrift store in 2022. It was a Polaroid OneStep from the 90s, and while film was still readily available for it, it was far too expensive to justify using it regularly. As cool as instant photography was, I accepted that it wasn't economically viable for me and moved on. ...Until about a month ago! On one of my first dates with my girlfriend, she introduced me to her Fujifilm Instax Mini 11. It was a much more compact and modern instant camera than my Polaroid. It also used smaller film slides. This was a big deal, as she informed me that the smaller film came at a smaller price. I was intrigued. A couple weeks later, I ventured to Walmart and splurged. I picked up the cheapest Instax they sold: The Mini SE. It only cost about $57, and it came bundled with 10 slides of film. I also picked up an ...
