''' This expects `strs` to be a list of strings and tuples. Each

Raw system calls in Swift
// macOS x86_64 syscall works as follows:
// Syscall id is moved into rax
// 1st argument is moved into rdi
// 2nd argument is moved into rsi
// 3rd argument is moved into rdx
// ... plus some more
// Return value is stored in rax (where we put syscall value)
// Mac syscall enum that contains the value to correctly call it

Reverse-engineering the dynamic wallpaper file format in macOS Mojave.

The dynamic wallpaper in MacOS Mojave is a single 114 MB .heic file that seems to contain 16 embedded images.

It also contains the following binary plist data in its metadata under the key "Solar". It's an array of 16 items, each with four keys:

  • i (integer). This seems to be the image index.
  • o (integer). This is always 1 or 0. Stephen Radford thinks it indicates dark mode (0) vs. light mode (1).
  • a (decimal). I’m pretty sure this is the angle of the sun over the horizon. 0º = sunset/sunrise. 90º = sun directly overhead. Negative values = sun below horizon.
  • z (decimal). This seems to be the cardinal position of the sun relative to the camera. 0º = sun is directly in front of the camera. 90º = sun is directly to the right of the camera. 180º = sun is directly behind the camera.
