I have been using MacOS for about 5 years now and I have just discovered three finger drag for moving windows around. So much more convenient than clicking on the trackpad, holding and dragging.
Turn it on in the settings under Accessibility - Pointer Control (under Motor) - Trackpad Options
Toggle on Use Trackpad for Dragging and change Dragging Style to Three Finger Drag.
Enjoy 😀
Listening to The Sundays today and can’t help but feel that they are somewhat underrated, or at least under appreciated by music fans.
I love their story too. The two founders were boyfriend and girlfriend in college and decided to write some songs despite having no real music background, got picked up by the Rough Trade record label and had a big hit with their debut album Reading, Writing and Arithmetic.
It is nice to know that new video game releases can still excite me. Today it was announced that the next installment in the Trais franchise (Trails Beyond the Horizon) would be coming out in the west in autumn 2025 and I felt a genuine sense of excitement at the news.
Granted Trails is my favourite video game franchise but it is exceedingly rare that I feel such genuine excitement about a new game’s release these days; and when I do feel it, it is almost always a game in the AA or indie space.
Recently, I have cut back in a rather big way on the content I watch on Youtube. I used to have well into double figures channels that I watched regularly (probably 50 odd) but I have become rather disillusioned with the platform in general, and have reduced that massively.
There are still a handful of channels I will tune into on a regular basis though because they are both entertaining and informative in a way I don’t get elsewhere.
One of my favourite things to do is pick an artist at random in Apple Music, click on the three dots, then Create Station and just let it play. Done that now with The Mighy Might Bosstones and it is good.
I love Journey! From their early prog/jazz fusion days, to their pinnacle days when Steve Perry and Gregg Rolie shared vocals, to their AOR commercial success years, to their post Steve Perry years and the current Arnel Pineda led line up. They may just be my favourite band of all time.
I have decided to resurrect my silly little personal site as a micro.blog page under a new domain name and will make this my only social/online presence. I have grown weary of the modern web and social media in particular but I like to have a place to post about my nerdy hobbies and this seems like a good way to do it. Expect a mix of short and long form musings about whatever takes my fancy; mostly books I’ve been reading, music I’ve been listening to, video games I’ve been playing, food I’ve been cooking, tea/rum/brandy I’ve been drinking.
