That game was the most fun I’ve ever had playing a video game. Lots of other great games have happened, but the low barrier to entry (buy-to-play instead of subscription) and the reward for slotting a useful 8 skills that worked well with each other and well with the other 7 or so people in your group cannot be beat.

I think we agree; the past is over.

You’d be correct on that Airdrop assumption. I get most of Lemmy reflexively hates Apple, but Airdrop between two Apple devices you own is about as braindead simple as it’s possible to be.

Maybe it’s just the hardware I’ve tried to use it on but it always seemed to take too long for me in 10, too (haven’t used 11). Whether trackpad gesture or win+tab, it’s just always seemed sluggish compared to other options.

Clipboard history next please. I mean I can keep using an app for it but it’d be nice if it was just a thing.

There’s plenty of porn; I don’t need it trying to sell me a video game.

Eh, the default organization they put on the App Library doesn’t offend me. I did add a widget for Reminders and another for Music though.

I hadn’t considered the connection, but now that you mention it I use Spotlight pretty much exclusively on my Mac too. Hopefully they don’t mess that feature up in the future or I’m going to have to learn how to manually organize things.

Thank you, I thought I was nuts for a minute.

…I thought we all just stopped having apps the Home Screen when we could put them in the library and unclutter everything.

It’s annoying sometimes, but it’s also pretty easy to recognize and ignore. Usually some variation of “you can’t even XYZ in OSX and that’s been a feature of whatever-I-use forever.”

Vague? Check. Outdated Nomenclature? Check. Circlejerk Popular Opinion on Lemmy? Oh that’s a big check.

I’m getting good enough at it now that I usually don’t even need to read half the comment before knowing it’s going to be worthless, downvote it, and move on.

Here’s hoping for better mod tools and a more diverse set of users as time passes. I’d love to get back to arguing that making all the ports on the MacBook Pro Thunderbolt ports was a way better idea than kowtowing to photographers who can’t be arsed to update their habits is (spoiler, I lose and get downvoted but still think I’m right), but I can wait.

How deep does this rabbit-hole go?!

I don’t think bottom is a valid value for the position property either.

It’s really weird that this is what you imagine when someone buys something from a giant corporation that isn’t your preferred giant corporation.

For like the fiftieth time, no one that matters cares what phone you bought, what OS it runs, or what color your texts are on other phones you didn’t buy. As a person that keeps buying iPhones, I don’t care what you buy. Please feel free to stop caring what I buy.

Thanks, couldn’t remember that one.

…not what I expected but I’d totally play that.

I didn’t, but I get why. It’s a specious argument — it doesn’t matter if 99% of them are useless. It matters if the 1% that become ubiquitous for whatever reason provide utility that makes the useless ones worth it.

Yeah you can run a company that never provides any time or resources to tinker, but only if you’re okay with innovation never happening again.

Hey at least I didn’t miss it in the options somewhere. Fingers and toes crossed for soon.

Is there a way to collapse comment threads on it I’m missing? I’ve been loving some of its other features (like being the only one I’ve found that stretches when I turn my iPad lengthwise).
