I do not trust the man. I don't like Zuckerberg's attitude toward privacy. I have been on Facebook since 2009. I have never given my phone number to them. I have never used anything that involves money. I have never paid them anything. I don't use Facebook for connecting to other apps or for logins, they don't need that information.

I do not use it for news, that should be done by legitimate news organizations, that is why they are there. I also use ad blockers. I just use Facebook for staying connected with friends and groups that I like.

40 years ago, I waited for the 512k Mac in the fall of 1984 and dove in. Been a Mac user ever since and have had a lot of them. I have no desire to change.
Because of the Mac I was able to build a Mac 9500 into a video editing machine in 1995, way ahead of the competition. Back then to rent an edit room was around $100 an hour. The room cost $100,000. Now, I could video edit at home. Work at home? No Problem.
I find it hard to believe that I lived 30 years without one.

In 1984, I waited for the 512k Mac in the fall and dove in after owning an Apple II and Apple III. Been a Mac user ever since and have had a lot of them. I have no desire to change.  It Just Works!

Because of the Mac I was able to build a 9500 into a video editing machine in 1995 way ahead of the competition. I made a good amount of money with that machine as I did not have to leave home and pay $100 per hour at a studio to edit standard definition video. The system had only 8Gigs of storage in an external disk array (a lot at that time). It cost $4700 and was about 40 minutes of SD video. For longer shows, I would build it in sections and lay them off to DV tape.

I had Photoshop 1.0 and Premiere 1.0 in 1990 and have been using them ever since. I started using Final Cut Pro since version 3 and I am stilling using it with the current version.

The price has not changed a lot for my Macs over the years. In 1984 my 512 with printer was about $3000. My MacBook Pro M1 was bought when it was introduced and was about $3000.

To use the volume button for starting and stopping horizontal shooting, the app only allows you only to shoot with phone with the button on the bottom of the phone. The only rotates one way. With the volume button on the top all the information is upside down. Makes it easier to put you finger in the way. (May be because BM is from Australia?)

What about Left Handed people?
