@sysop408 @davidtoddmccarty The best part is when you update from 26.0.1 to 26.1 and the update bricks your Mac Studio so that you have to wipe it completely (Revive didn't do it) and spend the better part of two days restoring from backup (my backup system is the best money I've spent in a very long time), and you also discover how handy it is to also own a MacBook which you hadn't updated yet so you can do the Restore without sending the Mac Studio to Apple.
On the plus side, it's an opportunity to not install all those apps you never use anymore ...

#BBEdit has retained more or less the same UI for the better part of — what? — 30 years? It’s brilliant.

I don’t always agree with @daringfireball , but I think he’s pretty much spot on here regarding Tim Cook, Apple, and Trump. The US is a racket, and Cook is paying protection.

‘“Being able to write well and think coherently were basic requirements in most graduate jobs 10, 15 years ago,” said a senior recruitment professional at a large consultancy firm from London, speaking anonymously. “Now, they are emerging as basically elite skills. Almost nobody can do it. We see all the time that people with top degrees cannot summarise the contents of a document, cannot problem solve.
‘[…] Various employers and professionals in HR and management positions shared that university leavers they encountered often struggled to speak on the phone or in meetings, take notes with a pen, relay messages precisely or complete written tasks without internet access.’

‘As the head of HHS, Kennedy said his federal department is undergoing an “AI revolution.” He implored viewers to “stop trusting the experts,” as highlighted by Gizmodo, and, presumably, put their trust into AI instead of decades of scientific consensus.’

I love #StarTrek, & I really enjoyed #PicardSeason3 at first viewing. Unfortunately, the more I read other's issues the more I'm realizing it just doesn't live up to the ideals of Star Trek. The biggest issues are that most female characters are essentially there just to aid in male character advancement, & one of the few LGBTQ relationships in Trek is just completely dismissed & ignored.
