You probably use your backspace [delete] key quite a bit. If you have a Macbook Pro, you probably also hit the Open Siri button quite a bit, as it is (in)conveniently located adjacent to the backspace key.
This is quite annoying.
This short guide will show you how to remove the Siri button from your Macbook Pro’s touch bar, or Control Strip, disabling the button without disabling Siri.
Click on the Apple icon and select System Preferences.
🛈 You can also use Spotlight to open System Preferences.
2 – Open Keyboard Settings
Click the Keyboard system preference icon.
3 – Customize the Touch Bar
Click the Customize Control Strip... button.
🛈 In older versions of macOS, the button is labeled “Customize Touch Bar…” instead.
4 – Remove or replace the Touch Bar Siri button
Move your mouse down, off your screen and INTO the touch bar. This will highlight each menu item. Highlight the Siri button, click, and drag the Siri button upward and out of the Touch Bar. It will now disappear.
You can optionally add a new button to replace the Siri button, but I chose to leave it empty because I inadvertently click in the space all the time.
5 – You’re all done!
You go to hell Siri and you die there. Now that you’ve disabled Siri, perhaps you’d like to disable the MacBook Pro Touch Bar and revert it to its former Control Strip glory!

Have you ever found program management on a Windows system to be a bit of a pain? Well, no longer! Chocolatey is a powerful PowerShell-based software management solution that allows you to manage every aspect of your Windows software environment, including using Chocolatey to install programs. Via simple PowerShell commands, you gain a great level of control over your installed programs: Chocolatey can even handle batch installations, updates, and uninstallations (as we’ll explore in this article).
Chocolatey only manages that software that you installed through Chocolatey. But once you’ve installed a program using Chocolatey, you can then manage all aspects of your software environment easily.
There are two ways to uninstall a program managed by Chocolatey: either via PowerShell commands or Chocolatey’s GUI (graphical user interface) should you have it installed, which is really easy to do.
1 – Uninstalling a program with Chocolatey using PowerShell
Open PowerShell by searching for it in Windows search. Make sure to open it via Run as Administrator.
The first PowerShell command we’ll be using today is: choco uninstall which allows you to uninstall programs really quickly and easily.
For instance, you could use this to remove a single program: choco uninstall googlechrome
Or you could use this to uninstall a selection of programs all at once: choco uninstall googlechrome notepadplusplus 7zip
Or even uninstall everything managed by Chocolatey in one glorious shot with: choco uninstall all
To find a list of all your Chocolatey-installed software, use the following command in PowerShell: choco list --local-only
Finally, to ensure that your uninstallation process slides through without hassle, append your command with -y (for “yes”), which will automatically select the affirmative option from the software’s uninstallation prompts should any exist. See the example below.
choco uninstall googlechrome -y
🛈 You should always double-check in Programs to ensure that the software is uninstalled properly. It may not show up as uninstalled until you do a system reboot.
2 – Uninstalling a program through the Chocolatey GUI
If you are using the Chocolatey graphical user interface, you can also use it to uninstall any Chocolatey-managed programs you desire. The process here is as simple as right-clicking on the item in question and choosing “Uninstall” from the drop-down menu.
The GUI isn’t as handy for uninstalling a large selection of software in one go, however, so I’d stick to PowerShell for big operations.

Note that the first line, $(function() { is shorthand for $(document).ready(function() {. This simply means we are passing a callback function to the document ready event. It’s necessary to do this when our code is expecting DOM elements to exist.
Next we are creating a click event handler for our button, $(“#top”).on(‘click’, function() {. First we specify which element we are listening to, which in our case is #top. The on(‘click’ is very readable – simple means when the user clicks on the #top element. And as before, the anonymous function we create is being passing in as a callback function. So whenever the user clicks on the #top element this function will get fired.
Now for the animation. First it should be noted that we are targeting both HTML and BODY for browser compatibility. Some browsers scroll by settings scrollTop on BODY and other on HTML. No, I don’t know which ones, and it will probably be unnecessary soon if it isn’t already. jQuery provides an animate function that takes a dictionary of CSS properties and values as the first parameter, and an integer representing the animation duration in milliseconds as the second parameter. In our case we are passing in only one css property: scrollTop. And since we are scrolling to the top, we’ll set scrollTop to 0.
Then as the second parameter we’re setting the duration to 1000 milliseconds or if you’re really good at math: 1 second. This should give us plenty of time to watch our animation.
🛈 Keep in mind that if you’re going to use this code, you’ll need to add enough content to your page to enable scrolling otherwise the button will do nothing!
2 – Scroll to the top of an element
Now suppose we have an element on the page and we want to scroll to the top of it.
We first need to find out the offset of the image.
var position = $("#image").offset().top;
jQuery’s offset() function returns an object containing properties top and left. We’re only interested in top because we want to scroll to the top of this element. So using what we’ve already learned about scroll, we can use our new position as the value of scrollTop:
$(function() {
$("#top").on('click', function() {
var position = $("#image").offset().top;
$("HTML, BODY").animate({
scrollTop: position
}, 1000);
});
});
This will scroll you to the top of the element with the animation lasting 1 second.
3 – Scroll to the bottom of the page
Since scrollTop is the position on the page that should land at the top of the window, scrolling to the bottom of the page requires a little bit of math. The position we want to know is the document height – window height. document height will give us the height of the entire web page, while window height just gives us the height of the scrollable area.
var bottom = $(document).height() - $(window).height();
If you’ve been experimenting with animating scroll, you’ve probably noticed that if the scroll distance is small it scrolls very slowly and if the scroll distance is large is scrolls more quickly. This is because we are specifying a duration for the animation, and it doesn’t care about distance. In most cases, when your scroll distance can vary you’ll want to normalize the scroll rate. So instead of always passing in 1000 for the duration, we want to take our scroll distance into account. First, we have to decide the rate we want to scroll. Let’s pick something easy – 1000px/500ms or 1000px/0.5s. We need to write a function that takes the target scroll position, that is the position we are scrolling to, and returns the new duration in milliseconds.
First we set our variables. We need to get our current scrollTop position and store that value as currentTop. This allows us to properly calculate the distance between our current position and the target position.
Then we specify our rate, which in our case is 0.5 or 1000px/500ms.
Finally, we declare our distance variable which will be set soon. Calculating the distance is as simple as subtracting the target from the currentTop. We need to take the absolute value of the result to ensure this works for both directions. Finally we return the new distance we calculated multiplied by the rate.
Now let’s put our function to use in an example that scrolls us to the bottom of the page at our newly calculated rate.
As you can see the only changes are calling the getDuration function and using the newly calculated duration as the second parameter of the animate function. This method is beneficial because if all of your scrolls will animate at the same speed. If you want to change the speed, all you have to do is modify the rate in our getDuration function. Adjusting the rate to 0.2 will make it go much faster, whereas changing it to 1.5 will slow it down significantly.
