Rest in peace, Scott.

Your Dilbert era was scary with how accurate it portrayed real life.

And your Coffee With Scott Adams era was impressive in explaining the goings on of life.

You will be missed!

If you're running an older version of Mac OS X, then you should try reading the "user manual" or "help guide" from your Mac.

Amazing to see Microsoft can manage decades of tech knowledge (for the most part) but Apple breaks stuff because it's the future

I would add: A useable System Preferences app. It's been renamed "Settings" and some idiot tried to make it look like iOS.

It's the absolute worst part of modern MacOS IMHO. As a Mac user measured in decades, it's the thing most likely to drive me back to Linux.

[edit: I am curious why this topic has been flagged]

New macOS Settings app is an insult to everything Mac.

Sadly, while many here on the Orange Website may miss this, the numbers would (probably) show an overwhelming number of iOS -> macOS users.

Thank you for adding more DRM to our lives.

Provenance != DRM.

The ability to prove the origin of something over "Source: dude trust me bro" is critical to a great number of people.

But sure, let's stick with "yeah nah, this piece of paper says what's in the box is in the box so it must be legit" because FOSS is gonna get salty about this.

This is such a great site, and game!

Thanks to whoever made this - the game oozes 90s / 00s and you've captured it perfectly!

Sounds like Apple is building this (in time) and simply putting out pithy statements so the ilk of Tim and his "omg, why don't you let us have you built for free crowd!!11!!111!!1!!" can all pile on and reveal their hand.
