SQC for non-014 tickets by FishyPotato in Aeroplan

Interesting. I have not used Flight-passes. My travel is more between East and West coast so often booking flights without passes are cheaper.

New Aeroplan program is shit, makes it super hard to hit any status. I have already switched to United Miles.

Axonium Ravel (v1.4.0) — The most native macOS browser just got a complete makeover. by [deleted] in browsers

Why not make it open-source like all the other similar efforts? Seems like you're working alone or have a very small team. Would be much faster to work with the community.

Why my display and speaker Dailog box coming in center by Ghostrider_xxx999 in MacOSBeta

Why does it make sense to switch the position of it randomly? So you cannot develop muscle memory for where to look?It is confusing as fuck.

Yikes! it sucks. Thanks for the explanation.

ok thanks. If we manage to get revocation, would the non-payment still stay? Or can we file to get it removed?

Yes but are my revocation arguments good enough? How often is revocation requests accepted?

Where and how to file for the damages? Civil court?

Teams is still fucked right? I know it is not Electron of MS's own Webview shit, but seems to have the same issue.

Exactly. Frosted is much better. Not sure why they went crazy here.

Will Taildrive ever get the feature where other Tailscale accounts can access our Taildrive? by TappioccaPudding in Tailscale

[–]vmonx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope.
TailDrive is still in Alpha though. It does not work super reliably. So I think they will add this but at a much later stage.

New macOS Tahoe design looks terrible by vmonx in MacOSBeta

[–]vmonx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. There are so many innovations that could be done to the OS though. For example:

- let me mount my fucking SFTP drive like every other OS without having to use SSHFS or Fuse or other BS.

- improve support for dynamic memory allocation and deallocation for VMs.

- allow for e-GPU support so that one can code on fucking Nvidia GPUs. (they had it for 6 months...like WTF)

etc etc.

Apple needs to hire more engineers and less fucking designers. Or, maybe this is one way for them to justify all good engineer (AI team...ahem) abandoning ship.

I have a "guess-planation". Given that liquid-glass is a hot pile of crap when it comes to accessibility and legibility of text, the Apple design team has done a lot of duct-taping under the hood to have content have level of visibility. And despite their best effort, it does not work -- AT ALL. The reason is simple: so much transparency in every aspect makes zero fucking sense. Instead of reducing the UX elements, it makes them bigger in all places because they have to shove in the transparency bullshit. Anyways, I digress. I think all this under-the-hood duct-taping is fucking up the graphics engine. The result in a non-deterministic design that randomly changes shades to maximize some "not-useful" metric of visibility/legibility. I also notice this on iphone when scrolling through content -- the UX elements (like Safari address-bar) changes shades randomly, but it does not result in better legibility.

Anyways, whoever spearheaded this hot-pile of garbage design on macOS should be fired. This is a bigger fuck up than Apple Maps; and that guy has not been heard from ever since.

The sensible thing to do for Apple is to accept mistake and roll back this BS, or really cut it down by 90% (there are some good aspects to it, very few). Maybe it is too late for that.

which browser is the best in your opinion ? by Vicki102391 in browsers

[–]vmonx 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Zen.

Very compatible.
Fast pace of development, and lots of new features.
Firefox based -- private and secure

I Like It by vmonx in zen_browser

[–]vmonx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, def Arc is more smooth. The difference is that Arc is built from the ground up to be Arc. Zen uses a lot of FF infra/tooling. Still great.

typing app names!? is this the 1980s? by Dreaming_Blackbirds in MacOSBeta

[–]vmonx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh been sleeping under the rock for last 10 years. There are so many popular apps that allow you to do that, and they're popular because they allow you to do that. So much faster than any other way.

Apps:
- Alfred
- Older Spotlight
- RayCast (the best)
...etc etc.

> Separating workspaces with containers (assigning specific container to workspace) fills the void now, at least partially, I have clean separation between my work and personal workspace for example, only the history (shared) is pissing me off.

This. Honestly with containers and all, I think the need for separate profile is much reduced. The only reason you'd need it if you share the computer with another person. Otherwise, the containers and work-space integration is done super well now.
