*For what it is, it's pretty good. It probably needs a sequel that goes a thousand years into the future.

Reasonably sure Mastodon peeps like libraries and might like a peek at this wowzer I stepped into today.

Books are art, and art is labor.

Welcome to the rereading Project! We're working to build and maintain tools that respect and support the relationship between readers, authors, editors, and independent publishers by making it easier to read and archive books.

Mac Users!
I've been pulling my hair out over dragging and listviews in the Finder. It works fine with a mouse (when I'm at my office) but when travelling and using the trackpad, I just can't get it to work.

Turns out if you turn off "Force Press and Haptics" it works just fine again. This has been bugging me for over a year and it's a relief to finally figure it out.

But it is another example of creeping bad #UX decisions by Apple

“What Music Ownership Means to Me” by @flamed

> Streaming as a way of playing music is fine. Streaming as a replacement for owning is what I don’t trust. At the end of the day it’s rented access, and the artists aren’t benefiting most of the time either. Stuff comes and goes. Tracks get greyed out. Albums dissapear. Licensing, regional, business, exclusivity deals. None of that has anything to do with the music…
