@provuejim At the time, and unbelievably, BP only accepted … PayPal!!! … via their app. Now they accept Apple Pay as well.

[For Mac Eyes Only @formaceyesonly]

@provuejim Yep, Exxon/Mobile has those. I’ve been using their app to purchase with Apple Pay for quite a while now. They were the ONLY brand to accept Apple Pay when I started — and I started because we’d just had our CC stolen at a gas station for the second time in 6 mos.

[For Mac Eyes Only @formaceyesonly]

@provuejim Okay, I won’t ask you to get up that early normally, but maybe we can get you up for a guest spot one of these days. 😉

[For Mac Eyes Only @formaceyesonly]

@provuejim You are correct on the dragging of ANY background window. I used Finder windows as an example, but should have clarified it could be any window. Thanks Jim!

[For Mac Eyes Only @formaceyesonly]

@provuejim Eric and I ran experiments “offline” to test how close to the front of a Mac the ultrawide lens can “see”. In our testing, there’s about 2 - 2.5” in front of the Mac that can’t be seen. Otherwise, with crop and straightening, it’s very possible!
