Curious to know what “zoom normally” means for you. For me, it’s ctrl+mouse wheel or maybe two finger pinch/pull on trackpad. I am thoroughly confused as to why GitHub’s mermaid integration doesn’t seem to support any zoom outside of t

Even as a non-woman I sometimes like to have my nails done up nice, and sure it’s my _choice_ just as it’s my choice not to purchase products that are fine excluding a chunk of the market. Out of curiosity, do you remember what controller?

Take a peek in the accessibility settings - there is a setting for keyboard navigation that defaults to Off - setting jt On should let you navigate those items

Also, somewhere in accessibility settings, you can turn Keyboard Navigation to On - this allows you to tab through just about any control on the screen - very helpful. I find keyboard navigation much more fluid and easy on my Mac than my wi

There’s been plenty of times where I would rather drag an item on the screen than fiddle with the sometimes flaky responsiveness and range of a touchpad. I’m usually fussy about my Asus laptop’s pad - the MacBook _usually_ does fine in the

Trump has largely not had that kind of money. He’s had a _lot_ of money, many many times more than most, but by all accounts except his own, those numbers are much lower than he likes to brag about. Well, they were - there’s been a troublin

You would have? I don’t necessarily think I like the idea of using AI for anything that I’m going to send to anyone else, be it prose or code. But I’d rather get an AI generated pull request than have anyone in my medical team using it for,

This has been the (largely) conservative playbook for decades, at least since the religious right took over, it’s just being borne out in a much more direct way. The old model was “claim that public institution X is bloated/corrupt&#x2

Wouldn’t a WiFi mesh network be more reliable in war-torn areas? If you just need communication then actual “internet” is incidental and probably a security risk - just having a fairly secure local mesh network, with nodes covering hot-spot

To some degree this is how they’re trained, and imo the people doing the training also need some form of repercussions - if you haven’t before, check out some information on the courses that are (were?) taught to precincts across the countr

I definitely notice a difference in my desktop as the host (better everything, hardwired to the router) than my partner’s old HP, but they both do well enough. It’s probably also important to note that the most we’re pushing it for is usual

It’s wild how many of you have issues with Siri - and to be clear I’m not here to discount those issues, and I very much believe all of the anecdotes here. For me, Siri on either phone or watch is pretty much perfect - I don’t ask for much,

“The default is hunter gatherer” kind of leaves out a lot of communal living that happened throughout human history. Someone had to hunt, someone had to watch the kids, someone had to garden, eventually people needed to work on sewage lines
