As much as I like using Chrome it is so buggy when its to the spell checker – text boxes where it doesn’t work then suddenly a minute later on the same website the text box magically has spell checking. Don’t get my started on a misspelled word that is phonetically close to what it should be but apparently Chrome isn’t smart enough to pick up on it but Google the search engine can. It reminds me of a YouTube video – “how can they be made by the same company?” Yes, that is a question I ask every day which is why I have uninstalled it and reclaimed back a bit of space. I’m looking forward to Safari 18.1 that is bundled with macOS 15.1 because based on the beta notes for Safari 18.1 for older platforms, they’ve made quite a few fixes which is a good sign that they’re continuing the drive to close the gap between Safari and it’s competitors.
New Zealanders who ‘felt bored’ and ‘wanted a change’ are now finding out the hard way that low taxes and low regulation have a high cost (link). Gee, who would have thunk it, when you cut services to the bone to pay for tax cuts and handouts to landlords that the wheels end up coming off. This is what happens when politicians play to your prejudices and you vote out of fear and anger rather than having a solid understanding of the policies being proposed.
I really do wish that AdGuard would provide a native version of their software for macOS – I’d be happy even for a Catalyst paid for version (I’ve already bought AdGuard for iOS) to replace the existing Electron based app that they have for macOS.
Wellington appears to be the queerest city in New Zealand (link) – I’m doing my part.
