   For me one of the joys of using macOS is when you realize adding option or shift to a shortcut does a similar but more specialized thing that is more useful. In Windows the shortcuts have always seemed less logical to me, though the newer W

   I am not sure about the premise that the "surge of mobile ad-blockers" in the developing world will translate to "skyrocketing" usage of ad-blockers in the US. I think the incentive to limit data usage by blocking ads is

   FWIW, when the previous FCC chairman was nominated there was concern about his being a former industry lobbyist [1] - but he supported net neutrality strongly. (On the other hand, he and the Obama administration didn't do much to preve

    Multi-monitor support got pretty effed up around 10.7 or 10.8. It had something to do with the new full screen app mode. It seems like 10.6 is the agreed-upon high point for macOS - then the porting of iOS designs/features (remember th
