It’s good to be reminded that when people give concrete examples of using space differently to improve the lives of people living in a neighborhood, there’s always some constipated car-living boomer to add at least one humbug to the discussion. Don’t like it? Move to Florida.

So sad that my neighbourhood lost 2 parking spots to accommodate a dog-friendly patio, with flowers, artwork and bike racks, that fits 20 people.

Absolutely furious that people are currently able to buy THE SIMS 4 for $19.99 when I myself paid $59.99 several years ago. A real slap in the face to those who worked hard and paid full price.

If it's possible to bootstrap a new device and get existing credentials on that device with only a phishable password, phishable SMS code, and phishable unlock code, the solution is phishable. It enables an attacker to control "something you have" using only "something you know."

@aaronpk 56 GB for the software only? That is mind-boggling. Adobe's Creative Suite was the last thing I owned, and it was partially responsible for me to choose a different professional path, one where I didn't have to keep using Adobe CS. I miss Photoshop sometimesl (I even used to teach it at PNCA), but I minimized my toolset, and don't do anything that can't be done in Acorn.

ok that might have been a slight exaggeration, but it gets close to that once you install Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Lightroom, Audition, Premiere, and After Effects, all of which I have used somewhat regularly.

It's the perfect metaphor for web3 stuff: reliant on existing web infrastructure, but there's also a crypto middleman pretending to do something to create the illusion that the blockchain is doing anything meaningful

@aaronpk Are you using Gimp now or something else?

no i really don't like that software. I'm using mostly Lightroom on iOS and Affinity Photo on mac, and Keynote for some things I used to do in Photoshop too

I love my Aranet4. It’s a phenomenal piece of technology. When I start getting brain fog and forgetting people’s names during Zoom calls, I check the CO2 levels. It’s usually the lack of ventilation in the office and not lack of caffeine.

@aaronpk Oh, I so wish Apple could dust off Aperture and do a Photoshop equivalent. Together then with Logic and Final Cut, they’d have a real contender.

I know right? Logic and FCP are great! I used Aperture a ton back in the day

Boomers melting down about how this isn't fair is really something. We know life isn't fair. You told us that every single day of our childhood. So I'll give you the same advice you always gave us: Get over it.
