Maybe it’s just the hardware I’ve tried to use it on but it always seemed to take too long for me in 10, too (haven’t used 11). Whether trackpad gesture or win+tab, it’s just always seemed sluggish compared to other options.

Clipboard history next please. I mean I can keep using an app for it but it’d be nice if it was just a thing.

Eh, the default organization they put on the App Library doesn’t offend me. I did add a widget for Reminders and another for Music though.

I hadn’t considered the connection, but now that you mention it I use Spotlight pretty much exclusively on my Mac too. Hopefully they don’t mess that feature up in the future or I’m going to have to learn how to manually organize things.

Thank you, I thought I was nuts for a minute.

…I thought we all just stopped having apps the Home Screen when we could put them in the library and unclutter everything.

It’s annoying sometimes, but it’s also pretty easy to recognize and ignore. Usually some variation of “you can’t even XYZ in OSX and that’s been a feature of whatever-I-use forever.”

Vague? Check. Outdated Nomenclature? Check. Circlejerk Popular Opinion on Lemmy? Oh that’s a big check.

I’m getting good enough at it now that I usually don’t even need to read half the comment before knowing it’s going to be worthless, downvote it, and move on.

Here’s hoping for better mod tools and a more diverse set of users as time passes. I’d love to get back to arguing that making all the ports on the MacBook Pro Thunderbolt ports was a way better idea than kowtowing to photographers who can’t be arsed to update their habits is (spoiler, I lose and get downvoted but still think I’m right), but I can wait.

I’m not sure you’re in the right thread here, unless ios and android are political identities now.

It’s a phone, man. Not an F-350 rolling coal with a Trump flag.

It’s really weird that this is what you imagine when someone buys something from a giant corporation that isn’t your preferred giant corporation.

For like the fiftieth time, no one that matters cares what phone you bought, what OS it runs, or what color your texts are on other phones you didn’t buy. As a person that keeps buying iPhones, I don’t care what you buy. Please feel free to stop caring what I buy.

I’m really liking the new beta certification for JS on freecodecamp.org. The old one was good, but this one seems like it’s all project based instead of exercise based, which is more entertaining for me.

That’s a really good point. From your article, she was apparently in there for like nine months, too, on “charges,” so not because she was even convicted of anything yet.

So, long enough to know about her, long enough to have done medical screening for underlying issues, and certainly more than long enough for them to release her pending trial, but I’d speculate that she didn’t have the money to pay an exorbitant bail or the credit for a bondsman, so they just tossed her in with minimal oversight and zero care. If only she’d had the foresight to be born rich.

Five or so years ago I’d probably scroll right past an article like this and think nothing of it.

Now, the “found unresponsive” just draws my suspicion, like “officer-involved shooting” where bullet holes seem to appear in people by magic.

Might still be nothing, but immediate suspicion seems like the only sensible response anymore.

I think it wouldn’t annoy me so much if I knew who any of them were. Seeing something about Globglopr having beef with Cronchstan just makes me think I’ve had a stroke.

Maybe someday we can start talking about tearing these down and sticking them in whatever hole the confederate monuments end up in.

Not being able to scroll recycled content all day has been hugely detrimental to me. I’ve actually started reading books again. BOOKS.

Why, though? If you already have it and it’s already hooked up to a lightning cable you already have, what would a refresh get you?

There’s a bit of comfort in only ever needing one type of cable, I guess, but I’m not sure it outweighs the hassle for me.

I had to look up what “force science” was because it didn’t sound like a real thing. After searching for about ten minutes, I’ve concluded that it is in fact not a real thing.

The only hits I can find for it are for what appears to be consulting firms that teach law enforcement how to lie convincingly about why they injure and kill people. Their “subjects investigated” section includes:

“How threatening suspects can end up struck in the back by well-trained officers making valid, lawful shooting decisions.”

Ah, yes, they just “end up” struck in the back. Somehow, as if by magic, bullet holes sprout from their backs but don’t worry the cops totally didn’t do anything wrong.

I guess I’m somewhat glad they’re stupid enough to pick something so obviously fake-sounding to try to whitewash their bullshit with the veneer of fake science.

Might not be able to scroll forever, but most of the stuff I see here is at least new to me if not actually new.

I find that having a really shit take on something tends to get even passive people talking, but I worry about the long-term effects of generating conversation that way.
