FWIW, I think Adobe actually adds quite a bit to Creative Cloud every year, plus they offer fonts and connections with their mobile apps and such as part of the same price. Creative Cloud today is a very different beast from CS6. (obdisclai

Let me put it another way: there are many things we choose to do which generate data and provide that data to various entities. We have to decide which data we're willing to share with whom and for what benefits. I know some people who

Sure. They know I play Beat Saber and move pretty quickly while doing so. Maybe they'll try to sell me exercise stuff (though I rarely interact with Facebook and my browser setup is kind of aggressive when it comes to them). They also

When I bought an Oculus Quest, the fact that Oculus is owned by Facebook was slightly bothersome, but I honestly don't care a whole lot about this particular data at this particular time (basically just game playing). It's Faceboo

I've been using Macs since a 12" Powerbook around 2004 and think I've only taken a Mac in once over those 15 years. My current Mac is a 15" MBP from earlier this year as well. One precaution I took is to get a silicone k

Anchor was kind of like this when it started and, over time, grew into a podcast platform. While I like podcasts, I honestly have a hard time imagining using an audio version of Twitter.

My tip, which seems to be working for me so far: I upgraded from a 2015 to a 2018 a few months ago, and _immediately_ added a silicone keyboard cover that I got on Amazon for $8 or so. It's really thin and doesn't bother me, but t
