They might be referring to when Apple removed subpixel antialiasing around ~2018. It caused some consternation at the time because there were still plenty of non-retina Macbook Airs in service. While it technically works, macOS really is not meant for non-high DPI displays.
Yes, there’s a video where Michael Okuda (with Adam Savage, I think?) recalls the TNG cast being worried about where to tap, and his response was essentially “you can’t press a wrong button“.
Hah, yes. Satire can be "deceptively" effective. I didn't create this, and naturally it was flagged for a time, but if it made someone chuckle it was worth posting on a Saturday night.
To judge one's actions is to judge one's beliefs, because beliefs drive action. I go to the gym because I believe it'll make me healthier. I eat beef because I believe it to be one of the most beneficial foods on the planet. I teach my kids to think critically, because I believe it will serve them well in life. I act in accordance with my beliefs, and you act in accordance with yours. Actions are dictated by beliefs.

And each level up in RAM typically includes a bump to CPU and/or GPU core counts as well, so it is even more difficult to discern the true pricing. Annoying, but also understandable that they don't want to produce every possible combination of specs.
Don't get me started on needing to buy a 1TB+ iPad Pro to get double the RAM, though.
> He [Epperson] is currently conducting a multisite study in Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Louis that examines the development and implementation of deferred prosecution programs, a prosecutor-led innovation to divert people with nonviolent charges from traditional criminal justice processing.
Seems reasonable to me, and a far cry from "an explicit, open policy of not prosecuting petty crime" that is somehow country-wide.
"We, alongside the mujahideen, bled Russia for 10 years, until it went bankrupt and was forced to withdraw in defeat ... So we are continuing this policy in bleeding America to the point of bankruptcy."
