So, the workflow: you’ve got dozens, if not hundreds of images to check. You have a finder window on one screen, you Quicklook an image onto a second screen, drag it larger, then go full screen. Every image you click now displays scaled to full screen size. #macOS #Mojave
You can do this one at a time, or as a slideshow - it’s an incredibly powerful workflow for dealing with lots of images. No having to bust out a DAM app, or open them all into Preview, just click and it’s there, you can even apply labels etc as you go. #macOS #Mojave
Well @Apple screwed this up in #macOS #Mojave as QuickLook will only honour an up-scale for the first image. From then on, any image that’s smaller than the pixel dimensions of your display will be at its native size. So the app-less fullscreen slideshow workflow is gone.
You really have to ask, how the hell did they get this wrong? The #Mac blogaratti so breathlessly repeated the PR line that @Apple had a “pro workflow group” - how does breaking a workflow like this, and it IS used SERIOUSLY by pros, get past QA? #macOS #Mojave

28 years ago, I graduated from #ShoreSchool - a fact I, frankly, don’t like to admit do. From the first day term 2 year 9, until I had a mental breakdown and tried to quit 2 weeks before my trial HSC, I was subjected to (multiple) daily verbal abuse and physical assault…
…constantly hunted in corridors, and grabbed by the hair, and hurled around, and against walls, labelled a “faggot”, for the crime of a *haircut*.

Yes, apparently, there are “gay” haircuts.

#ShoreSchool
That school was expensive, even then, and two generations of my family had all pooled resources to cover the fees - I was a third generation student.

It wasn’t until my (separated parents) father, having finally found out, after I told him I was “quitting”…

Gave the 2009 #MacPro cheesegrater a pre-summer service. Pulled every major component & blasted with the air-compressor. Re-greased the northbridge and processors (x-pattern).

Back together, temps are down about 5-8c, & ready for another year’s work.
Chassis & motherboards from 2009, processors & RAM from ~2011, Wifi from ~2014, spinning storage from 2009-2020, SSDs from 2018-2020, Graphics from 2019.

By a large margin, the most stable #Mac I’ve ever owned.

The sealed & non-upgradable = stability hypothesis is horseshit.
What makes these old #Cheesegrater #MacPro stable in a way the 2013 wasn’t & the 2019 isn’t (go look it up, the 2019 is a crapfest of wake from sleep issues), is that these machines are standard Intel reference designs - they’ve got the least #Apple, of any #Mac, in them.

Been doing #DTP for 26-odd years. Started with Quark Xpress 3.32 (AU$1900), and Photoshop 3.01 (AU$1200), bought Adobe GoLive 4 (~AU$4-500) & PS 6. CS1, & CS2. CS3 was the ruination of CS, with Dreamweaver & Fireworks clumsily replacing GoLive & Imageready, + Flash infection.
Nowdays, I’ve replaced InDesign, Photoshop and IIlustrator with @affinitybyserif Publisher, Photo and Designer, each for about AU$79.

Best description of Publisher, is “Frictionless”. You can be as rigidly process-oriented as you like, or you can also work quickly and loosely.
There a little relearning along the way, but even when you get the natural frustration at things being different, once you get the new methods, they’re just such comfortable apps to use.

so one of the great #Mac news websites #Macsurfer has closed down. It’s a real shame, BUT it was inevitable when they revealed their pricing.

Every time I see a website / podcast network membership pricing scheme, it’s always nuts, by a whole digit.

#Subscriptions
My whole email, web hosting, domain rego etc, works out at about AU$10/month. That’s my entire online infrastructure - a single news website suggests it should be worth AU$4/month to me?

#Subscriptions
Netflix, with all of its content, much of which they actually produce is AU$9/month.

Is *one* #Mac specific website worth half as much as *netflix*?

This is what constantly bugs me about subscription services / apps etc - they all seem to be in this bubble…

what’s wrong with #iTunes has nothing whatsoever to do with it’s “complexity”, and everything to do with incompetent #UI design at Apple.

iTunes doesn’t need features removed, it needs designers removed, and replaced with people who aren’t #Bozos
For example the breaking of the disclosure-triangle list on the left. Previously the conceptual heart of navigation, where everything could be found (even downloads), its mutated into this confusing combination where the first level of the app is modal to the media kind. ImageImageImage
Another offender - the downloads / activity window is now a separate entity, that loses its download history on quit, and has no place in the structural order of the app, even though downloading media is one of the primary things #iTunes does. Image
