I believe this is stating these microplastics are to small to pass through naturally, and since they cool when entering the body there isnt enough heat/micromes to turn them to lactic acid. So they can cause issues

Look part of playing couch coop ARK is surviving when only one of you can properly use the menu at a time.

Yeah swipping between screens or forward backward in the browser up and down the browser page, used to be 4 fingers up to mission control and I can’t remember all of them. It really did make movement pretty fluid. Now they do a thing that I believe is only integrated to Apple apps where if you are signed into your Apple account you can continue between devices fairly simply. Like if you have an email/texg open on the iPhone and walk up to your Mac an icon appears on the dock far right with a phone symbol, you tap it and it opens the mail/messages/safari app to where you were and wrap what you were doing. I believe it does the opposite as well by opening the phone, going to app switcher and the active app on the Mac will be an option to continue on the iPhone

Mac had gestures for both trackpad and their “magic” mouse. I’ve never bought an Apple product for myself, but I have repaired and worked on many in the past and I’ll say their trackpad has been great for years. That said the top of it used to be a glass, so when you’d do repairs they actual install instructions would have you tear a sticky note/paper and put them between all the edges to set it in the center then pull them out to ensure it was centered and wouldn’t crack by hitting the edge.

“secondary click” i have found unassigned in many a Mac. Like either they have been upgrading and using migration assistant to new machines, or it wasn’t a default when they got the machine somehow. Telling someone to two finger tap vs double tap sometimes gets confusing as well so I write it as ctrl click for Mac users

I hate that they auto hide. I have turned that feature off in the past.

I could never choose courage over chaos.

Yeah it would be nice if there were a few copies around

What does essentially a love in mean? Thinking I am just not hip that terminology as of yet. Maybe it’s because my age but I would have figured that apps were great tools when at cons.

That’s why Apple really needs to prove they are sticking with AI locally indexing information and not sent out. Whether it’s an RCS or iMessage and you say it’s E2E, but your calendar app on another device is now recommending an event based on that text… People should be verifying that at no point did that data leave their encrypted cloud data. If it did… Neither is E2E

See I would assume we would see reports of grindr going down for things like DragonCon in Atlanta during such events, but whenever I search for them I don’t find them. Wouldn’t the groups coming to run those events be similar? I would have expected more queer people there to be honest.

Our cat loves to kill mosquitoes and such. Understandably he doesn’t like to play with stink bugs much, but I’m still stuck in the conundrum that he wants to attack wasps. If one gets in I don’t want him to get stung, but also him getting stung would probably be what would defer him going after wasps, or he may never be stung, but it always ends with me trying to capture or kill the wasp and fighting to keep the cat at a safe distance with my leg, arm and anything else I can use.

It’s okay, there are weird people out there whom prefer to eat soup with a fork then drink the broth. Just about the only way I enjoy some soups.

So if you call it a dividend Republicans will defend it but if you call it a universal base income they’ll fight it? I mean if dude actually put forth guards to prevent inflation on rent/housing/food costs and said he’d give every U.S. adult 5k every year, that would actually help people.

Idaho seems to be a bit of an odd man out on that list

Ah okay. So it’s giving people a distraction. Whether it be the colloseum, the Olympics, or an NFL team.

So the U.S. is run by oligarchs. There are many of them, and they most definitely do not have a low return on investment. The oligarchs do not care about whether you think some country won some conflict, because they see their net worth go up. Did the oligarchs become poorer during the wars with (insert country here)? If the answer is no… they got what they wanted. In 2001 the top 1% held ~26% of the wealth in America, by 2021 they held over 32%.

So as far as the oligarchs are concerned, Afghanistan was a definite win for them overall.

Does it matter that the people who were in power are in power now? Not to them.

I don’t understand what people think they would otherwise do. Say you lived in Ukraine, Like 2.5% of their population are active duty. The other 97.5% of the population goes to work/school/etc the next day.

If your honest with yourself everyone age 1-17 and 35+ nothing too much would really change. More jobs would pop up manufacturing drones and such. Amount of males between 18-35 would decrease some, and for the most part life would go on. Oh and them wanting to add $1.5 trillion more dollars to the military budget would pass really quickly. If the U.S. put a deployment as large as Vietnam was these days, we wouldn’t even have 1% active duty.

The person was pre-cleared by TSA, aka who really cares if they swapped places. They were already cleared to not be a threat as much as the person with the ticket?

If you are on a no fly list or have a warrant out for your arrest, I assume you won’t pass the TSA pre-check.
