Republicans are the party of business, the party of free enterprise and deregulation. So why in the world is the Republican governor of Ohio dictating 10 p.m. “last call” at bars?
This doesn't even make sense. What, you are not contagious before 10 PM? But reps are fighting the Governors orders.
The "only contagious after 10 PM" is another sign of intelligence in the virus. There are many, like how trick or treating is forbidden in California, but mass looting is still peachy.
ReplyDeleteHow you doing with the Blogger editor? I don't know what Wordpress turned into, but is this better?
There are problems with the Google/Blogger interface, but overall my experience here is more like it was over at WP before the support staff lost their minds.
DeleteI am totally disgusted with Greg Abbott, Governor of Texas. You can add him to the list of politicians that I will vote against next time he's running for office.
ReplyDeleteThe WP interface - the old interface - was more flexible, but there are things it didn't do well either.
ReplyDeleteStrangely the one thing that is pissing me off is that the Blogger interface insists on my entering dates/times in American format. Dates don't bother me so much, but I have not used AM/PM since my 20s. And WP let me manage everything with a 24 hour clock.
Actually windows, email, everything is in tune with the way Europeans and the Japanese do things, so I can set most things (everything except Blogger?) to use a 24 hour clock. I hate the whole AM/PM thing.
I type most stuff in HTML. As I tried to tell the folks at WP, I have been using markup languages since before Generalized Markup Language was twisted slightly to become Hypertext Markup Language. I don't want Markdown or WYSIWYG (because you almost never see what you get anyway).
And apparently WP just posted another update which has driven people even crazier. Not my problem after Sunday.
I've never come across the AM/PM thing, I suppose because I don't post times very often.
DeleteI find that I go back and forth between the "Composer" and HTML views so often that if it was rug, I'd have already worn a path. That and using preview to try to see what it's going to look like. Their auto-translation of text to HTML is written at a level a first grade coder might have.
Simple example in paragraph mode: every paragraph has a "div" "align=left" statement and a "/div". If you hit return in paragraph mode, instead of just the "br /" you get another begin and end of "align=left" statements. Pictures are aligned in the center. They could have one "align left" for the entire document instead of one for every paragraph. Turn on center for the picture and turn it off after the picture, and you're back at align left. I know "memory is cheap" but it makes the files bigger and harder to get it to display what I want.
Well, pardon my ranting.
Sounds Like Blogger was trying to implement a "lite" version of the WP block editor.
DeleteI know what WP was up to. While they had 35% (or more) of the Internet, Square Space was taking a lot of the new web-based merchant stores. Block make sense if you are trying to sell shoes. And so of course, WP had to corner that market as well. I don't think they did a very good job of it.
But then I am not trying to sell shoes.
