Agreed. I've been a Mac fan even through the dark ages of buying Performas at Sears... but Tahoe is a bridge too far for me. I doubt I'll switch away from iOS for my phone/watch as I'm reliant on some iOS-specific featur

I don't think a high price in the VPN market is a reliable indicator of "getting something better" VPN companies often overpackage their offerings and overcharge -- this truism doesn't apply when shopping for VPNs.

With online development responsibilities, I don't find VPNs to be compatible with what I do all day. That said, the few implementations I have test before seemed leaky and not as useful as they claim.

Reading "Why Mavericks" made me glad not to be alone in noticing the slow progression toward a general lack of usability in macOS. For me, it started with 10.7 when a lot of things changed just to look different. From then forward

This just seems like an extremely inconvenient, very hands-on subscription given that similarly priced AI detection exists with reliable, cheap cameras.

I don't think tables are the hard thing. If you wanted to grow your wood, plane and dry it yourself, etc... then you'd be "hard way" building a table. I assume you use tools?
