@Cdespinosa am bummed. I really like Congresswoman Porter, but Schiff really dodged wrong to her with his pac supporting Garvey. And I was the biggest Garvey fan in the 70s. Sigh to both parties on this one.

Macintosh 40th Anniversary

@thanius That was a decision since 1984, when the original Mac had one mouse button, to keep the system simple as no consumers were familiar with graphical user interfaces. As for the the trash can, that was indeed an odd decision.

@thanius While it was an odd UI decision, the File menu did include Eject (Command-E)

Hidden UI in the macOS design language can go straight to hell.

The fact it hides this button is just so damned infuriating.

@thomasfuchs impressive that they are functioning in that heat 🙃

Returned my Upgrade Program phone and closed the loan. Took about 5 minutes. All they need to do is scan the serial and IMEI. Came right up on their device, entered my email, got a receipt and left.
