I just wanted to also suggest BetterMouse ( https://better-mouse.com ). SteerMouse is great, but it lacks the ability to map gestures to the thumb button on the MX Master mice. BetterMouse allows you to do that and has a UI thats

When I go on Mastodon, half the posts there are bitching about 'how bad' X is. The engagement on posts is extremely poor as well. No one replies to anything. As far as the problems people complain about on X, I don't see them

Siracusa's simpering, consoomer defensiveness for Apple has become intolerable. He seems unable to deal with the fact that his precious company's business practices are incompatible with his political/enviromental beliefs. In

This was the point I began my Google-exit. What I feel is more remarkable than how long ago this all began, is how stable the choices I moved to have been. Fastmail has been amazing, Feedbin is still very solid, DuckDuckGo while not perfect

Bought one of these a few years back to use with my old butterfly keyboard MacBook Pro: https://shop.bird-electron.co.jp/?pid=128928848 Nice to see something easier to obtain and 3D printable at that.

It does seem like in the last several years, the quality of ThinkPads has declined as other business lines like Dell Latitude/Precision and HP EliteBook/ZBook have improved.

I had a 2011 MacBook Air that I used as a casual "couch laptop" up until a month ago. I probably could have continued using it if it wasn't for both the battery and the power supply becoming unreliable. It surprises me that w

Anybody experience writing a sentence and never use a period so that the sentence just goes on and on for an entire paragraph and its difficult for others to read and understand?

Seconded, I take psyllium husk powder daily. Am I missing something by doing this that I would gain with more typical sources of fiber?

I guess if your time is free or you enjoy all the labor that goes into research, assembly and maintenance, sure, this is cheaper.

The fact that there is a wall between the Linux stuff and Windows stuff (“You can't edit a file that originates from the Linux userland inside Windows.”) sounds very hacky to me.

Question for Paul, if you could use a Windows machine for work, would you? If not, why?

by ranqet 9y ago
I probably flip several settings to make macOS liveable for myself. I’d have to do all the adjustments Paul discussed and probably more to make Windows liveable.

So, the main reason he switched to a Windows machine was to use the latest/fastest hardware with Adobe Lightroom and Premiere, but then he goes on to say the Lightroom and Premiere don’t take advantage of many core CPUs, the fastest GP

Then what you're saying is touch screens on non-tablet devices is a fad to lure in clueless consumers? We're in complete agreement then.

by ranqet 14y ago
I agree, and we do see plenty iOS feature appear in OSX and vice-versa (notification center for instance). But it should be kept in mind that we are dealing with separate paradigms. The way one uses a tablet is very different from the way a

Then what is the point of a touch screen on machines like the Dell XPS 27? I think if given the choice between OSX versions of an app and iOS versions of an app, most would choose the OSX versions. For example, Tweetbot for iOS would be a p

Hypothetically, if Apple were to allow the ability to run iOS/iPad apps within OS X, and put a touch screen on their laptops and desktops, would people use this? This is basically what Windows has done with laptops and desktops with touch s

A ring notifier would be kind of pointless, unless the call could be routed to an app within OS X in order to be answered.

I'm really excited for these things. Growing up (5-12yrs old), I had an old Commodore 64, hooked up to a small TV to play around with (so I wouldn't mess up something on the fancy 486 machine my dad used). The simplicity and lack of distrac
