# It might look like I outright hate products with an apple logo, but that's not the case.

I just deeply dislike working on them. Why? A single-button mouse is fine, **but**… A scroll wheel that only scrolls in one direction slows me down! I mostly work with windows that are **maximised** (not full screen — I want to see the menu bar). But why does macOS X, when I click the + button in the window title bar, only enlarge the window by a tiny amount?

I had to press the + button several times to stretch the window out. Then a week later at school after an upgrade the button had **a completely different function**! It switched the window to full screen! These are small things, but when I need to work fast they drive me up the wall. Especially when I regularly switch between operating systems throughout the day. I get the feeling that Apple always has to have **something extra**.

# What are wireless earbuds like

I got my hands (ears) on second-generation wireless earbuds from Apple — **AirPods**. They don't have IP4X certification or all the fancy extras, but they **fit** my ears better than the Pro version.

The **range** pleasantly surprised me — I can walk anywhere in the flat...

# One connector, many headaches

What I ran into concerns the *MacBook Pro 2018, 15"* and the *USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter (MJ1K2AM)*.

I was **powering** the laptop through the adapter (USB-C) while simultaneously having an **external** drive (WD Elements 1TB) in the USB-A port. The **performance**...
