Separate from this policy debate I think you’ll find Australia is a country where the right frequently wins actual majorities of the vote.

Isn't that basically every democratic country?

We can't judge how "right" or "left" the political culture of a country is by how frequently the right or left win office, because in the long-run they tend to win office roughly equally often just about everywhere.

A better way of judging this question, is how the policies of their main left/right parties compare to those of their counterparts in comparable countries


Run ARM64 Linux and install Rosetta inside it. Even on the MacBook Neo it'll be faster than your 2020 Intel Mac.

The US simply has more numerous and more important companies that rely on being able to freely export their services globally. The leverage here is with Europeans not only because of this asymmetry but because there is also more political appetite there to punish America than there is in America to punish Europe.


Apple has a motion sickness mitigation feature that displays dots on your screen that move based on physical motion, so it’s fairly well known that the accelerometer exists.


That's for iOS devices though


https://support.apple.com/en-om/guide/mac-help/mchla3c4f1da/...:

“Vehicle Motion Cues

Vehicle Motion Cues may help reduce vehicle motion sickness while using a Mac and riding as a passenger in a car or other on-road vehicle.

To customize Vehicle Motion cues, click Customize Appearance, then set any of the following options:

- Pattern: Select Regular for a stable and predictable pattern of onscreen dots, or Dynamic for a more engaging visual experience.

- Color: Select a color of onscreen dots. Color saturation will automatically adjust to maintain contrast with the content behind each dot.

- Larger dots: Turn on Large dots to increase the size of the dots that appear onscreen.

- More dots: Turn on More dots to increase the number of dots that appear onscreen.

Note: This option is available on Mac laptop computers. It’s not available on MacBook Air (M1) or 13-inch MacBook Pro (M1) or earlier.”


It’s also for macOS


No.


I disagree. Incrementing the minor number makes so much more sense than “gemini-3-pro-preview-1902” or something.


A lot of the cursor weirdness on macOS comes from the window server owning the cursor and only passing events to active windows.


It's kind of nice, though, because you can click anywhere on a window to focus it. If you want to interact with a background window without focusing it, hold Cmd and click.


On every app but the System Settings app since it is so busted it takes 5 or 6 clicks before it focuses.


macOS gained window snapping last year, and you can bind some keyboard shortcut to the “exposé” view (which is triggered by a trackpad gesture by default)

full screen is still its own thing as you mention, though


The key binding for Exposé is just F3 on most keyboards!


If you set Liquid Glass to the more opaque mode in settings I find iOS usability to be fine now, and some non-flashy changes such as moving search bars to the bottom are good UX improvements.

The real stinker with Liquid Glass has been macOS. You get a half-baked version of the design that barely even looks good and hurts usability.


Still takes multiple taps to find something on a page in Safari.


You can restore the old UI by changing the “tabs” setting from “compact” to “top” or “bottom”.


You can just type the text to find in the address bar — “find on page” will be the at the very bottom of the list of suggestions.


This is, again, something you can fix in Settings


iOS 26 is a disaster on devices with 4GB RAM though, so I'm not upgrading my iPhone 13 Mini again (that was a traumatic few days).


Interesting. I haven't had any noticable problems on my 13 Mini.

What are you seeing?


Are you sure that wasn't just a beta thing?


Imagine running iOS 26 on an iPad Air 3 from 2019…


All of them can do it but Codex has the least frustrating usage limits.


When using it in VSCode? The browser system running its own container seems like it would be the most demanding on their resources. The stand-alone client is Mac-only but I don't know if it makes a difference.

My goal is to do it within the usage I get from a $20 monthly plan.


You don't have to use their container thingy though, you can run Codex (CLI or VSCode, it doesn't matter) just fine in YOLO mode in your own local containers, or VMs, or however you want to isolate it.


Why would you use it in VSCode?

OpenAI are offering double the normal usage limits for Codex for two months. Go with them and do it in the terminal or the Mac OS codex app if you have a Mac.


It's different to use it in the terminal vs. vscode? Don't have a mac.


Sorry I wasn't aware it's available in vscode. Scratch my suggestion, then.


It is confusing especially when token efficiency is on the line.


Both
