@TK512 @ClassicII_MrMac There is a separate font called "Apple Garamond" that I remember using back in the day.

@ClassicII_MrMac I love Garamond, but I can't make this the same using a modern Mac. I adjusted kerning but it's subtly different.

I need this Apple eWorld mousepad 😅

@NitoriSmallArms almost the worst part was that there was only 1 samsung repair person for a metro area population of over 3 million, and repair wait times stretched out 2+ months if i wanted them to cover the part cost!

@NitoriSmallArms bought one of their dryers brand new, but the whole unit would vibrate and start walking across the floor when on. took it apart and the plastic blower wheel was warped, so they didn't bother to properly test it at the factory. brought it right back and went with another brand

You gotta hand it to Samsungs engineers. It takes a lot of work to make such a simple machine with so few moving parts this unreliable.

@Mandrik the best doctor I ever had was a fit Chad. competence can def be detected by appearance sometimes

People really get triggered by this post.

@ClassicII_MrMac @RetroTechorDie i still feel like downgrading to Sequoia on my MacBook M4 Pro because of the UI styling and memory leaks...like how Control Center will often eat up GIGS of memory for no good reason after a few days until i restart that process

Thanks to @RetroTechorDie for the template 👌 Honestly Tahoe is terrible on Intel.. and so so on M1. It is fine for M2 and newer.

😅

the same semantic argument against the 14th amendment has been used against the 2nd. so ruling against against birthright citizenship would pave the way to saying the right to bear arms doesn't actually exist...do we want that?

@ClassicII_MrMac there's lot's of old ARPLE CD images up on archive.org, which is the equivalent to this in CD-ROM form from the 90's! archive.org/search?tab=all…

AppleFacts: The Very Informative Guide to Apple Products. (May 1994)

No one is talking about the "discoverability collapse" of the internet. The old web disappeared. Scenes like Xbox modding, reverse engineering, old hacking forums, bodybuilding/steroid boards had actual geniuses dropping insane knowledge in random threads. Now search is Reddit sludge and SEO slop.

Imagine getting denied a mortgage because the bank said they can't see you making a good enough income to pay for the next 15 years And then later reading that same bank was giving 30 year mortgages to people who were 1 year from being kicked out of the country.

It's a real thing apparently: Far right is pro-AC Far left is anti-AC How did AC become the political battleground of choice in Europe?

@ClassicII_MrMac dayum!

Mac price increases are live 😢 MacBook Neo: $699 > $599 (+$100) MacBook Air: $1,299 > $1,099 (+$200) MacBook Pro: $1,999 >$1,699 (+$300) iMac: $1,499 > $1,299 (+$200) Mac mini (M4 Pro): $1,599 > $1,399 (+$200) Mac Studio (M4 Max): $2,499 > $1,999 (+$500) Mac Studio (M3 Ultra): $5,299 > $3,999 (+$1,300) Apple: "We're doing our best to mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we've been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable."

@reddit_lies some of it has to do with masking making conventionally ugly people feel good about themselves appearing in public for the first time in their lives

Redditor no longer trusts the science after being diagnosed with anxiety for being paranoid about COVID.

The biggest lie in V for Vendetta is that the British public would actually stand up to their totalitarian government.

@PossumPatriot @RVG_sieve @SeedOilDsrspctr omega 3 is just a type of polyunsaturated fat, canola oil is 9% omega 3

@RVG_sieve @SeedOilDsrspctr Ooh I thought they meant just omega 3s in general didn't do anything for you

They’re all oxidized

@SeedOilDsrspctr like fluoride, fish oil was a great way to market a manufacturing waste product

@Yeahitsfineokay the future consists of weak men wondering why they didn't stop a true rape culture from having full political power and military control over their ballistic nuclear missile subs

Think about the fact the men in these rape gangs could easily call up a whole group of men to come and join in on abusing a young girl and then tell me its not cultural.

@ClassicII_MrMac here's the full story: applefritter.com/content/macint…

@TheSynthBaron Omg where is this picture from?

My son is at a garage sale and asked if he should get this 😅

@Yeahitsfineokay IIRC, they try and buy their wholesale oil in the summer when the price is the lowest. so it was def time to unload what they paid out the ass for this winter

@TheSynthBaron Not to be a conspiracy theorist on small scale, but my oil guys delivered on their unscheduled scheduled deliveries a couple hours after the sanctions were lifted. From a business stand point I don't blame them, but from a personal stand point I'm salty.

waiting to fill my gas tank until 3 days have passed since the straight of hormuz has been declared to be open again by the trump admin has proved to be a winning strategy so far
