Hard shells. Soft tacos suck.
Just to clarify. I was born and raised in San Diego until age ten. Home of one of the first Taco Bell’s. $.19. We had extended family taco feasts all the time in the early sixties. Some of my best early childhood memories. I still like the basic taco from them. I skip the cheese. And smother it in hot sauce.
 
Thanks. I finally gave up and shut the PC down(I rarely do). It seems to have cured itself.:wacky:
If you’re on a windows machine, shutdown every few days. It’ll help keep things normal.

I grew up on Windows. I hate it. Ten years ago I went to all Apple IOS on iPads for my personal stuff. Had to stay with Windows for work. Now that I’m retired, it’s all Apple IOS and and iPad. It just works.

Same. For me it was about 6 or so years ago when I switched. In part because of not wanting to learn a new system and compatibility with some of my programs. We bought the wife a MB Air. I liked it and bought a MB Pro. Recently bought a new M3 Pro. Hate Windows and will never go back. But understand why some don't want to make the change.

I was helping my drummer friend set up his audio interface with his newish MacBook.
What is the deal with that trackpad? No right click? And try to drag a file from Google drive into Reaper? No dice.
 
My first car was ‘59 PV 544. Sold it to a collector when I went away to college. I wish I could have kept it.

We had a bulletproof ‘84 240 DL that I sold at around 200k miles. Wished I had kept it too. Solid, basic, easy to work on. Couldn’t get out of its own way. But it was what it was. Safe, reliable, comfortable, and economical with the 4 speed and overdrive.

My brother, a Mopar guy, went to Art Center in the early/mid eighties and got a second degree (his first degree was a ME from Cal Poly SLO) in trans design. He hooked up with Volvo when they opened the SoCal concept design center in Camarillo. Some great stuff that never saw the light of day was developed there. Ford screwed them.
'66 122S Estate Wagon - not mine but just like it with a nice chromed factory roof-rack. My favorite car I've owned. My current '05 Honda Element is in second place.

Click with two fingers for right click. And to drag a file, click and hold with one finger and drag with another.

Two finger tap. Sounds weird but once you get the hang of it it's as naturals as the typical R click.
