Scroll Reverser

A MUST have for any 10.7 Lion Users!!!!

Tuesday, August 02, 2011

I Officially FUCKING HATE Lion, OS X (10.7)

1) Open Safari or Mail (if they were previously in fullscreen mode), and it creates a new desktop. A new desktop that precedes the one you were in, so if it was blank, you've now got an empty desktop added to your "mission control."

2) I don't want Safari to remember my open tabs! When I'm surfing stuff with multiple tabs open and hit command-Q, there is a fucking reason! I don't need it to all reload (with pop-ups - even though pop up blocking is enabled) when I'm demonstrating something else to my mother in law.

3) Fine Tuning audio is again gone from Mac OS (Used to be option+shift+volume). I guess that's too complicated for Jobsian Mac users though.

4) Full screen would be cool if it were actually full screen. The only benefit I see is that in that "MODE" I can no longer access the dock without switching to a different desktop.

5) I frequently CANNOT close tabs in Safari. I often have MANY tabs open at once and switch between them. If I want to close one, I want the option. The new Safari almost always gives me shit (i.e., the window won't show the damn X).

6) For Chrissakes, there are TWO DIFFERENT settings for scrolling. One for mouse scrolling, one for trackpad scrolling. YET, changing ONE setting automatically changes the other! WTF???? I want the trackpad to move like an iOS device and my mouse to scroll the way it always has. Is this so freaking difficult??!!??

There's more, and it will come.

This has to be the shittiest release Apple has made...certainly NOT ready for prime time...

DHHS to make birth control free for all women

In July, an Institute of Medicine report recommended making contraceptives free to all women.

That report came under immediate fire from conservatives like Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly.

“Many women who get pregnant are blasted out of their minds when they have sex, and they’re not going to use birth control anyway,” O’Reilly said last month.


Of course Bill O'Reilly can't help being a complete pig about it...
