On a daily basis I switch between Mac, Windows, and Linux (and occasionally FreeBSD) and I don’t feel the need to bitch about it. Which I’ve been doing for 30 fucking years. Only OS/2 has been removed from my life.
Every time I have to use a Mac I die a little inside because I feel like an old person who doesn't know how a computer works. This is like the 5th time in 20 years and I hate it.

Two things: (1) students who take transcripts don't usually wind up *thinking* during class; they're trying to get every word down. If they actually listen carefully, then can jot down a phrase or two, and that will be enough to remind them of more of what was being said. And ...

Counter argument: going off course is a -good thing- More often than not when I get lost* I discover something new. Never use my bike computer for maps.

My first experience with Atlanta’s MARTA mass transit system was that half the machines couldn’t dispense a ticket and the other half couldn’t take a credit card.
So for the first time in like 15 years I paid for a train ticket with cash. This is why people take ride shares.

what he actually said was that mamdani doesn’t need his help and that he doesn’t live in new york but that he thought the race was very exciting and that cuomo disqualified himself, but, you know, hey, go ahead and make up people to get mad at if that makes your sunday morning more exciting
What nauseates about Mayor Pete is that he’s an Atlantic Monthly-reading retiree’s idea of what a young (ok, 43-yr-old) person should be like. Thank god for competitive primaries

I’m no fan of Spotify but this is false. Spotify just released their Q3 numbers and the consensus around the stock falling is around content costs. Both their subscriber and their profit numbers have increased. And their stock for the year is up 36%
