 I want to check out Hamish MacDonald’s memex tool. I click on one of the screenshot thumbs on its GitHub page. It won’t let me zoom in. macOS’s system-wide ML/OCR thingy kicks in and selects the text inside the thumbnail instead. I click and click again but there’s simply too much text in the thumbnail. I get the kids. I leave for the garden. 4 comments
Two pictures fail to export. It gives me two hash IDs but no thumbnails. I have no idea which of them are missing now. I want to share the pictures on Dropbox. I right-click the folder and select the appropriate action. Nothing happens. I’m confused. I open the Dropbox app. All of a sudden the Share dialog appears. It’s a weird hodge-podge of non-native controls. It’s slow too. I put in my partner’s email address and click Send. The dialog disappears. Is it shared now? I don’t know. You know what? I don’t want to know. The software collapse can’t come soon enough. |

It’s the next day now. My partner wants me to share some pictures of a festival we attended. He doesn’t have a Mac so I can’t use AirDrop. I open Photos on my MacBook. I drag the pictures out of my album into a folder on my desktop. The process takes forever. It needs to convert all the pictures into JPEGs first for some reason.
