This is how the new dark Office 365 theme for macOS Mojave looks in Word, PowerPoint and Excel

With the launch of Mojave macOS, there are many applications that are being updated to support their new dark theme. In that sense, Microsoft did not want to be left behind with Office 365, and already in October began to appear a new dark theme in the Insider versions of the main applications of the subscription service of the suite.



Finally, Microsoft has just updated the common versions of Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Excel with the dark theme, which has, in addition to the visual, some details to comment. For example, the new dark mode is completely linked to macOS Mojave, I come out to discover an unofficial way of activating it in other versions. Already in Mojave, the dark mode only applies if we select the dark mode, and the interesting thing is that the applications change dynamically with the system.

That is, it is not necessary to restart applications to establish their dark mode. With just go to "System Preferences -> General -> Aspect" and select the option "Dark", the theme will also be established in all Office 365 applications that support it. If we want to prevent them from changing, there is this trick

And that's how the dark theme looks in Microsoft Excel:

As we can see, it is a dark theme that goes in line with what Apple has done with its applications, but it introduces a stronger black base that later softens in different parts of the interface. This means that, for example, the search fields are distinguished very clearly from the rest of the window. The buttons with black lines turn to white and also manage to visualize correctly. For those who do not have this mode yet, an approximation is the "Focus mode", which was already darkened before. Even so, now it is much more polished and the icons have been "emptied to let the black background pass well.

'Bohemian Rhapsody' by Queen is already the most reproduced song of the 20th century on the Internet

Image
Universal Music Group has revealed that 'Bohemian Rhapsody' has just become the song of the last century that has been heard more times in streaming, surpassing the 1,600 million reproductions.   The acclaimed song of the iconic band Queen recorded more than 40 years ago and part of the Hall of Fame of the Grammys has taken the place of another classic, but from the 90s, 'Smell Like Teen Spirit' by Nirvana. The number of reproductions counts both those made in Spotify and Apple Music and other streaming music services, as well as the reproductions that the video has on YouTube. In Spotify the song is about to reach 600 million views and on YouTube the video has just over 750 million. One of the reasons why the song had a boost in popularity recently have to do with the biopic about Freddy Mercury and the band that premiered recently, titled in the same way as the song: Bohemian Rhapsody. While other twentieth-century songs like Nirvana's 'Smell l...

"Malicious Memes", how a new type of malware is taking advantage of hidden code in Twitter images

Image
Trend Micro security researchers have identified a new threat that they have called "malicious memes." Basically, it's a new type of malware that receives its code instructions hidden in memes posted on Twitter. Cybercriminals exploiting this use an old technique (stenography) to hide malicious code in images and evade security, the novelty here is that they are using the technique in images that are shared in the social network. Now, the malware itself is not downloaded from Twitter and the mechanism used to infect users, or where it comes from, or the intentions behind it has not yet been identified. It is a remote access Trojan that when infecting the computer can take screenshots and steal other system data that it then sends to its control server. It seems to be an experiment The authors of the malware identified by Trend Micro published two tweets with malicious memes last October through a Twitter account created in 2017. The memes contained an embedded command...

JQBX, listen to music with your friends in private or public groups where everyone can be the DJ

Image
JQBX (sounds like "Jukebox") has just become one of my favorite applications this week, if I had discovered it before maybe it would have gone to one of our best lists of the year. If you are a music lover and you have at least a small group of friends with whom you enjoy sharing your discoveries, you will almost certainly love it. Those who once used the deceased Turntable.fm probably find something familiar, basically brings that concept to the Spotify era, and Spotify plays an important role with JQBX, since you need a premium account of that service to enjoy the app. Since we have established that only Spotify Premium users can enjoy this little gem, if you are one of them, keep reading and failing, we feel in your soul that it is not integrated with any other streaming music service. Join or create your own music room, DJ or let some friend or stranger be it Jqbx Genbeta App interface in macOS when you're inside a room JQBX is completely free and integrates 100% ...
