I've installed mojave on that same computer model and the font smoothing switch is there, and the pixels look the same as before, which is great. Nothing has changed.

Maybe they only removed the switch on retina macs.

One thing I don't like is having a 30% chance to have to wait 2-4 seconds whenever I swipe to go to the previous page or click the back button.

You can use goaccess to create a log every day to json, excluding IP while retaining stats for geolocation.

For this you can logrotate daily and run goaccess before rotation. I believe you can keep the server logs for a week for debugging while respecting GDPR.

For today's "realtime" data you can use goaccess on today's log on demand and use a cache.

You can write your custom stat viewers or use goaccess to view time range data from multiple json files.

Affinity Designer fits somewhere between PS and AI.

I find it better than both for doing web design and game graphics.

YouTube used to have an open feed for any search term, but they took it away. This seems to have search but I don't know if you need to authenticate first.

Because on iOS Safari any touch on the lower area reveals the autohidden bottom toolbar, so now the button has moved up, and now you have to click on it again for it to work.

You can do that by building it with only the modules you want: https://github.com/jquery/jquery/blob/master/README.md

There's also an official slim build without ajax and effect modules.

I didn't say that. The "if it exists" I wrote came from "women may be biologically" from the parent. I'm disputing the statement that it's biological. The burden of proof is on whoever is making that claim.

I dispute that the difference in interest, if it exists, is biological. There are so many societal factors that come into play here from early age, and they all influence the outcome. It's an unfair world from the start.

> you can't get away from it if you're doing client side development (not even by switching to yarn).

Explain yourself better or top spreading this nonsense. What do they give you that you couldn't develop without them?

> you basically cannot do serious client-side development without one of them

You're going to have to explain that better, otherwise you're just perpetuating that dumb lie.

You absolutely can do serious (whatever that means) client-side development without yarn or npm.

Desktop skype has also enabled a sound volume limiter or background filter that's awful and for that reason alone we still use an older skype version.

It's also slower. The scrolling is choppy and I shouldn't need a top of the line computer to scroll smoothly through some emails.

That's what feedburner was for and looking back it's so obvious why google bought them.

Youtube used to have an rss feed for a search term, it was very useful.

Now we have to web scrape the results page because their api requires authentication and who wants to use that for results that are public anyways. I sure don't.

Rss worked great and they removed it. Boo.
