Time Sink 2.1 macOS 12 mb Time Sink watches how you use your Mac, recording the time spent in each window and program - whether that be foreground or background time. You can view and export reports, exclude apps and windows, and group related tasks together into one pool, which is then tracked as a single object. Time sinks are often associated with hardcore games, though whether this is a positive or negative association depends on the context. Implementing time sinks in a video game is a delicate balancing act. Excessive use of time sinks may cause players to stop playing. However, if not enough time sinks are implemented, players may feel. Time Sink Version: 1.2.6 Release Date: 09 Sep 2016 Language: English Developer: Many Tricks MAS Rating: 4+ Mac Platform: Intel OS Version: OS X 10.7 or later. Time-sink definition: Noun (plural time sinks) 1. (informal) Something that consumes a great deal of time, usually with little benefit; a waste of time.

Time Sink 2 is out today—yes, it’s a major update in version numbers, and no, it won’t cost you a cent. That’s right, Time Sink 2.0 is a free new major version, for both direct and App Store buyers.
Why free? Because all though we’ve done a ton of behind-the-scenes work to make Time Sink an even better time tracking app (so it’s indeed a major upgrade to us), the user-visible new features may not feel like typical “oh wow this is a MAJOR update!” material to you. So instead of trying to justify charging for the upgrade, we decided to give it to everyone for free. (But hey, if you want to buy another copy or gift one to a friend, we won’t mind—it’s still just $5.)
So what’s new in Time Sink 2? We won’t bore you with all the many behind-the-scenes changes, other than to mention that Time Sink is now sandboxed, so we can add new features to the App Store version to keep it in sync with the direct version—hooray!

Here’s the stuff you can see and work with as a Time Sink user:
- Ad-hoc timers can be used to track non-Mac activities, such as phone calls or client meetings.
- All timers can be paused via an assignable hot key, and can be set to resume automatically when activity resumes.
- A pop-up menu at the bottom of the Activity Report window lets you easily select time frames like today, this week, this month, or this year.
- Define the “start of day” time for the “today” Activity Report view. No longer must you start working just after midnight.
- Use window title filters to merge windows from apps that include always-changing info in their window titles, as when Photoshop appends @50%, @75%, etc.
- Exported reports can be opened in Time Sink to view historical data.
- View time usage in the Organizer as percentages of total time instead of hours/minutes.
Finally, there are a couple of new themes for the Activity Report:
The original purple (left) is joined by light (center) and dark (right); the blue shown in the dark theme shot will be replaced with whatever you’ve set as your macOS highlight color (System Preferences > General).
How to update
Direct customers can get the update via in-app updating; App Store customers should see the update in the App Store app soon, if not already. (Just one note of caution: Time Sink 2 requires OS X 10.8 or newer; if you’re on OS X 10.7, you’ll want to stay with the original Time Sink. See the museum for links to older versions.)
I saw this post on the EQ2 Forums and just had to share it.
Mikbove asks:
I’ve heard this phrase being bantered around a lot on this forum. However not being technological minded and all that, could someone please explain to me what it means on plain English.
Thanks in advance

It goes like this: game designers are a creative bunch and they want to make games which, like a great movie, move the story along at an exciting pace. In come the thugs from accounting who tie them down and whip them until they promise to put countless repetitive and time consuming requirements into the game. The accounting thugs claim the company can’t make any money unless games are made this way. We’re still waiting for the MMORPG game which proves them wrong.
