@JohnShirley2023 And pretty much anyone who's opened a business on North Williams in the last 8 years, or Mississippi in the last 12.

@JohnShirley2023 Hey, have you ever met any infants? Totally repositories of demons. A bit like squirrels that way. And Powell's Bookstore sales clerks.

I don't know how many other people are seeing it but I have the doge (i.e. dog meme) icon substituting for a twitter icon right now.

Elon has lost his fucking mind.

OTOH is there any more iconically perfect country rock song than Marshall Tucker Band's "Heard It In A Love Song"? Of course not, I hear you say. What kind of question even is that?

Is it just me or does listening to Blind Faith or Traffic feel like submerging in a stifling enclosed universe? Love me some Stevie Winwood but there's a strange claustrophobic private universe affect to that early stuff.

@JohnShirley2023 Well that's just a hell of a thing to say about what the Classics IV ultimately transitioned into

@JohnShirley2023 Goddamnit don't tell me ARS lied to me.

@sarahemclaugh Always a sure sign of having objective fact on their side.

@Popehat It was "beat them incontinent" that sold me in the end. I admit I'm childish that way.

@Popehat Time for a rewatch of Olivia de Havilland in The Snake Pit

Note that the nytimes is still deticked because they had the brazen cheek to speak up.

Excellent profile edit there.

@Twashe Mmm, come to think of it a VM probably won't prove anything... the host MacOS environment is going to be handling the hardware.

@Twashe Well it's good to know that Apple trackpads work nowadays, I'll try it on a VM on a macbook. The magic mouse seems to have some support problems still.

@Twashe Indeed, it might be a function of the Synaptic driver or the actual physical hardware on non-apple trackpads. I'm using a Logitech keyboard on MATE and it's driving me nuts at the moment. Disabling all gestures including two-finger scrolling fixes it, but I don't want to do that.

I really would like to switch from #MacOS to #linux on the desktop but there's still no way have two-finger scrolling without relentless gratuitous zoom-outs and -ins because it thinks your fingertips didn't trace perfectly parallel lines. MacOS NEVER gets confused about this kind of thing.
