@aral I liked the touch bar, I was in the unpopular minority at the time. I think Apple tragically under-invested in it, from a developer relations perspective. Invested big in the hardware but couldn't get devs to capitalize on it, so customers didn't see the point. Lack of physical escape key was a serious misstep too imo.

@aral nice! I've thought about building a PC in that case but don't think I really have the space for it. Hope you find a good buyer, and condolences on the Mac!

@aral I followed that whole saga, it was dismal. Glad the Mac is working better for you.You should fix the note in your post that elementary is broken, because it still uses accessible X11 by default (Wayland will be an option in the upcoming release, but will not be the only option until accessibility features are mature there.)

@aral it wasn't shipping Wayland at all when you published the piece about accessibility, though. Of those on your list, elementary held back from shipping the busted experience. That seemed to be worth noting!

@aral with elementary 8's release, I can confirm they did exactly the right thing: left the screen-reader classic X session as the default (and expanded screen reader support to many more areas, crucially the first-boot experience) while describing Wayland as an optional alternative to improve security in some scenarios."OS 8 will use the Classic Session by default and apps will work and behave as they always have"https://blog.elementary.io/os-8-available-now/I wish other systems were as careful.

Go for the closest.

@futurebird @PetraOleum my dream from the time I was a 7-year-old was to sit in a cozy alcove and eat fruit gummies while a computer did my math homework

@futurebird @PetraOleum I didn't start learning math through programming until I was probably 16, and then I intensified it significantly during college. I know at least one teacher at my high school was doing things in that area, teaching remedial algebra using the Racket language. I wasn't in a remedial class though.

@futurebird when I read this scam message the only thing I thought was that they were taking about reinstalling their email client. It being about a car totally took me by surprise.

@demiurg @cwebber I talked to their team at Google Cloud Next when they announced this feature. I said, "somebody's going to sign based on your summary, regret it, and blame you. you're not worried about that?" and they were like "interesting, nobody has brought that up, email us and we'll get back to you"

@futurebird it's not necessarily gross. A man is going out of their way to out-dress and aesthetically show up the men around them, would be an example. If your husband were to go directly from the opera in his finest to the boys' night out and made everybody else look schleppy, he'd be "mogging on other men." If somebody's doing it obnoxiously that could be gross, or if somebody's saying that to imply any man who puts effort into their appearance in the presence of other men is weak or smth idk
