Considering that I need a good dozen utility apps to override absolutely bonkers macOS design descicions there is no way around that.


I keep jearing this but after years of using MacOS Is still hate the windowing behavior. There is already a way for windowless apps to run - its in the top right corner of my menu bar. Why not use this if you _really_ need windowless apps to run in the background? Also dont get me started on window switching...


Exactly what you think - pops out a cup holder


D'uh, thanks! That did not occur to me at all to be honest. But it does make sense.


They just announced the end of their fleet editor


Yeah, and that they are pivoting it to an agent first editor.


https://air.dev/ provides more info, for anyone who's intrigued.


After fleet fiasco? No thanks.


I heard really good things about Zed, lol. I’m with you. I canceled my jetbrains subscription a couple years ago and I have no intention of returning. They have been superseded and are no longer a relevant company. AI has made them obsolete.

Atlassian is next…


But you only need to record your song once and get money forever. Nobody pays me per function invocation in production, that would be very nice


You can also install uBlock Origin on Edge for Android btw.


Edge for Android also has (limited) extension support. It only supports a subset of extensions, but I am using uBlock Origin (full version, although _lite_ is also available), Sponsorblock and Dark Reader for example.


I just unlocked the bootloader on my Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 today (which was a nightmare to do btw.). Why did I unlock it? The device has nice hardware, but is stuck with Android 13 and does not get any security updates either, so flashing a custom ROM is my only chance of having an up-to-date device.

Next step will be to try PostmarketOS and see how that goes


The cursor being captured when hovering buttons is the worst UI I've seen in a very long time


It's what iPad does when you use a mouse. https://web.archive.org/web/20200602200001/https://www.apple...


Is that meant to be an argument in favor of it? That it's what the iPad does for the extremely rare case of a user using a mouse with it?


Just information. I don’t know rare this case is, I use my iPad mostly with magic keyboard which has a touchpad.

Honestly it doesn’t bother me at all because it only applies to UI elements and not the websites link or buttons.


It sucks on there too. Thankfully it can be toned down/disabled there.


This is, for all I care, on par with sites that mess with scrolling.

I sort of understand this being used on artistic or playful sites, or ones to show off tech, sure. On a document that talks about usability? Feels like satire.


I honestly do not know if I have any screen that supports HDR. At least I've never noticed any improved image quality when viewing HDR video content and compare the image on my M3 Macbook Pro screen vs. an old external IPS monitor. Maybe my eyes are just broken?
