Hidden Fantastical Settings

Resize the 'all day' section on the 'Week' view

With the 'Week' view, it would be really awesome if we were able to manually resize the top 'all day' section

• defaults read com.flexibits.fantastical2.mac MaxAllDayHeight

Accessing / Exporting Apple's Screen Time Data

Some notes on accessing / exporting Apple's Screen Time data

• From ChatGPT (Ref):
  • Note: This seems to be wrong, at least on macOS Ventura.. not sure if it was ever correct.

  • On macOS, the Screen Time data is stored in a SQLite database located at:

  • ~/Library/Application Support/ScreenTimeAgent/Database/CoreDuetData.db

  • To access this database, you can use a SQLite browser tool, such as DB Browser for SQLite, which is a free, open-source tool that can be downloaded from their website at https://sqlitebrowser.org/.

• > Once you have installed DB Browser for SQLite, you can open the CoreDuetData.db file and browse the tables to view the Screen Time data. Note that the data is stored in a compressed format, so you may need to use a SQLite extension or command-line tool to decompress the data for viewing.
