Unless you’re keeping it for yourself…
If only for the UI. Back then, all bring white and beige and Windows blue screenofdesthblye. Be OS was pure joy, if only to play around with. Many third-party developers (remember sharewsre) took s liking to the Be aesthetic and ran away with it.
Pretty much as it happened with vinyl records twenty years ago. I remember seeing photos of this guy somewhere in Brazil standing atop heaps of vinyl records which he had amassed with HDLR intention. Now books. Some of us hold on forever.
This reminds me of a funky Windows screensaver, back in the day. Pretty cool.
Let’s not discount DeepSeek in this space…workhorse, in many respects.
A fraction of what its cost is for subsidizing other countries.
Correct. Smart move. Had Inhad the option to do the same for my car, I wouldn’t mind doing it (provided that I be compensated for it).
Your comments, yes. But the contextual thread as a while, no.
When the Mac version came out, I was all over it. WordPerfect user at the time, but wird processing was king back then. It would freeze and crash and irritate me. But I loved using it. If anything, it made things interesting for us Mac users as our options to PC software were quite virtually nonexistent.
WTF are Amazon’s data centers doung in the UAE? Excuse my ignorance, but why there?
As a Raycast user, I have to say the devs built something incredibly sleek and stable. It genuinely makes macOS feel like a pro-level OS.
For the developers: will Glaze replace Raycast, or are they meant to run concurrently?
Well-written books, especially the wealth of contemporary works now available in translation, affects me, and presumably many others alike, more deeply than almost anything else. I eagerly await my few hours of nightly isolation to explore new writing from around the world. There's lots to explore, trust me.
That is exactly why I ditched Microsoft for Mac thirty years ago. I’ve never looked back or regretted leaving MSFT during my "formative" years; in fact, I’m glad I did. That said, it’s great to see Linux stay the course and build a real alternative for PC users.
I’ve always wanted to try running Linux on one of my Macs, but I never seem to find the time to actually explore it. One of these days...
That’s the exact same 'missing features' script people used to dismiss Apple during the height of the PC era.
We’re expected to believe a single manageable medical issue compromised the entire crew (if not the entire mission itself). OK. Looks like a tactical retreat masked as a medical crisis. But what doesn’t appear cynical these days…
Why is AAPL still one stock?
I never brush my teeth, I irrigate them a couple of times a day and use floss as needed.
Switched early to a left-handed 65% keyboard setup—Keychron K7 Max QM7 on the left, Trackpad Pro and MX Master 3S on the right. Feels quick, natural, and fixes what Apple’s keyboards never did.
I actually sold my Nakamichi cassette deck to afford the NOKIA Communicator back then. The OS was problematic and couldn’t deliver the functionality that I expected. I ended up switching to a Palm or Handspring device, can't remember which, and stuck with a Nokia monochrome phone until the iPhone came along and changed everything.
If smart glasses can’t self-adjust vision or flag cataracts, they’re missing the point. This is not being discussed.
# Dash Usage Guide
*Hyphen (-)* = word-joiner
*En dash (–)* = “to/between”
*Em dash (—)* = pause, punch, drama
I believe the Reminders app, when used alongside Notes and Calendar, is becoming a strong competitor in the productivity space. One feature I'd love to see added is persistent nudging reminders that keep alerting you until you manually dismiss them.
Things 3 is another excellent third-party option in this category. Together, these apps form my essential productivity stack. I honestly can't function without them.
"vibecoded the wheel". Where did you get this from‽
The least one can do is adapt to using a bidet on a daily basis.
Seventy might feel like fifty in Scandinavian cities where cycling is part of daily life—but try that in the U.S., and the idea of retirement quickly becomes a parody.
I've long suspected these shady practices, and I'm relieved they're finally being exposed. Utilities and others aren’t far behind, sending invoices no reasonable person wouldn’t question.
Since 2019, I've relied on ride-shares and delivery services, consistently questioning their fee structures. During this time, I've spent an unconscionable amount on Uber and Uber Eats alone.
A big shame both to the ones running the show and the ones who trained them to think this is acceptable.
I’m now able to sign my name with flair using just my thumb while holding my phone—seamlessly and effortlessly. Very well done on the implementation.
I’d prefer it to nudge me when I’m about to add a task to my calendar, asking, “Why are you adding this?”
Actually, I just got an idea…
