Probably but that's why gatekeeper exists, apple won't verify the developer and will require the end user to allow unverified apps to be installed in order for the end consumer to install the application.

Well I have a dummy app running that uses it and that isn't in the store so I cannot see how or why they would allow not app store apps to use it. Yes it will be a fight to get it installed on ML but it does, at this time, work.

Has the Trash can icon changed in Mountain Lion? I know the Dock has different perspective/reflections, but the icon itself looks different. It also doesn't seem to get "fat" anymore when you add things into it.

Been using it on my main production main (LIVING ON THE EDGE!) since monday, havn't had a single crash. Stupid stable right now, loving it so far. As little as things have changed since Lion, my new Air that came with Lion, felt old as crap, really weird.

Hopefully someone finds a way to force airplay to work on older machines, also how to disable this nasty dock shadow.

Yeah, Apple finally included the Trash icon they've been using for their PR material. :woot:

Still can't cycle through Launchpad windows with the mouse wheel. Dunno why they haven't fixed this yet. If they want us to use it they should make navigating through it as easy as possible.

I'm using Launchpad these days and with my Magic Trackpad it really couldn't be any easier.

Nice, I knew it looked different.

I've finally switched back to the Dock on the bottom after so many years of side-docking. Thus, I had no idea the Dock even changed until DP4. Man, it looks great.

At this point, I'll probably just go ahead and install ML over my primary Lion install. DP4 has been rock solid for me and I don't foresee any major issues between now and the GM.

It's easy enough to do it in terminal

defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser BrowseAllInterfaces 1

then just kill the finder and voila

That's for AirDrop. Might not work for AirPlay.

Also it seems hard disks are set to sleep after a set time by default now and the option to disable it has been removed from the Energy Saver prefs. To disable sleep (on battery and AC) run this from the terminal: sudo pmset -a disksleep 0

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
