My screen is black
Windrider
16:11:35
OK, I see you, using MS Edge
Windrider
16:12:48
Interesting: black screen was with Safari Technology Preview. All is OK with regular Safari.

Apple's proposed App Store class action lawsuit settlement
BobBeach
16:34:36

JeffG
16:34:36
And welcome!

Damn! 😂

ANy company will try to maximise profit. A government has to decide whether such
BobBeach
16:46:13
Profits are “excessive” (known as economic profit in economics)
BobBeach
16:48:35
Lotus 123. I remember it well
ChuckJ
16:48:47
I want to forget it.
BobBeach

And WordPerfect

Unless Google is behaving (economically) irrationally, the extra revenue generated for Google must be greater than 15 billion
JeffG
16:53:19
I bet it's much greater than what they're paying.
BobBeach
16:53:48
It has to be or it would irrational to pay it
BobBeach
16:59:30
Apple is not hiring (paying) Google. Google is hiring Apple!
BobBeach
16:59:40
Genius!
ChuckJ
16:59:52
LOL...they are hiring each other!
JeffG
16:59:53
It really is brilliant.
BobBeach
17:01:30
Apple MAps integrates much better with other Apple apps and devices
BobBeach
17:02:13
I much prefer it to Google Mps because of the close integration with CarPlay and the Apple Watch
JeffG
17:05:39
Same, except when I'm searching for a type of business instead of a specific business. Google Maps is much better for that.
BobBeach
17:05:45
Apple Maps now alerts you about speed cameras in the UK
BobBeach
17:07:41
I used to prefer Google Maps but Apple MAps is now much better for me
Windrider
17:08:33
I need an mapping/navigation app that gives a speed warning. Onmobile I'll use Magic Earth, Here WeGo or Waze.
BobBeach
17:11:06
We ignored Apple MAps’s directions once recently and we ended up in a traffic jam!. I should have listened to it
ChuckJ
17:11:31
It can be tough to trust, but trust you should.
ChuckJ
17:11:48
(That was my best Yoda impression)
Windrider
17:12:24
Waze & Here WeGo used to have a wider range of downloadable voices. This is why Magic Earth is better.
BobBeach
17:14:25
Struggling with words he is
patrice
17:14:39
More tea he does need!
Windrider
17:16:59
Without tea there is nothing but darkness and chaos.
BobBeach
17:17:45

BobBeach
17:18:31
Wo ist das Callum?

You can also create a Quit All app/service/workflow (more limited than Jfff's recommendation) in Automator.
