  • I have a gaming PC aside from MacBook so keep my Windows muscle memory mostly up-to-date but what I find is I’m constantly in the back of my head going “Why it this like this? Why are you asking me this? Why do I have to do this?” while using it. It just throws up so many stupid barriers and forces you to do things you shouldn’t have to do.

    That was what drew me to macOS around 15 years ago, that it got out of the way and just let me do whatever I sat down to do. It’s still true today.


  • Same! I’ve always considered time travel to be a “plot cheat code” because it allows writers to do whatever they want. This works out ok sometimes but other times it just makes for bizarre stories that defy belief. This would definitely be the latter kind!

    I enjoy ST largely because it’s believable (in a broad strokes ignore the details kind of way) so far-fetched stories don’t do it for me as much. Time travel is firmly in “never gonna happen” territory.
