Awesome Cookie Manager: popup URI

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/06/14

I blogged about [WayBack] Awesome Cookie Manager before. The Awesome Cookie Manager lets the user manage cookies in Google Chrome. It is great.

It is even greater that the pop-up dialog has a URI:

chrome-extension://hcpidejphgpcgfnpiehkcckkkemgneif/popup.html

Get it at [Archive.is] Awesome Cookie Manager – Chrome Web Store:

Displays a list of all Google Chrome cookies. Allows searching, viewing, editing, saving, restoring, and deleting cookies.

It helped me solve the below cases, where I had too many cookies, to the Web Archive bailed out; Awesome Cookie Manager helped me to clear the right cookies:

MacOS: killing Chrome from the terminal

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/06/14

Every now and then, Chrome hangs to badly on MacOS that the whole Mac GUI becomes unresponsive so even the “Force Quit” dialog does not appear.

Sometimes you are lucky enough that you have a (remote) terminal shell open.

Then you can do either of these:

  • Less hard kill:
    • killall 'Google Chrome'
    • killall Google\ Chrome
  • Hard kill:
    • killall -9 'Google Chrome'
    • killall -9 Google\ Chrome

The less hard kill sometimes brings up an unresponsive task and still allows you to save any changed.

  • Choose the help icon  from the universal sidebar, then choose Keyboard Shortcuts.
  • When viewing a page, press shift+?
  • While editing a page, choose the question mark icon from the editor toolbar.

a list of some of the most common shortcuts:

…

Markdown

Use markdown shortcuts to format text from the comfort of your keyboard.

…

  1. Either:
    • Type [ and then the first few characters of the page title, user’s name, image name or file name.
    • Type the first few characters of the page title, user’s name, image name, or file name (or select relevant text) and then press ctrl+shift+k.
  2. Click the relevant link from the list of suggestions.

If the item you need is not in the list, either choose Search for ‘xxx’ to continue looking for the page within Confluence, or Insert Web Link to link to an external page.

When a Windows shortcut has Ctrl in it, the MacOS shortcut uses Command.
