I've played on my Macbook's touchpad a little bit and it's okay. You can definitely make it work.

This increases the Nether to take up the full height of the dimension, eliminating building on the Nether roof. I recall some people were interested in the increased difficulty.

I wanted a nice article from a researcher or historian or a Wikipedia page or something that was potentially high quality text written by an expert. The content I found even had a ton of AI images sprinkled in to let me know the text was for sure written by an AI.

Comment on Travel essentials: eight items to pack for your next trip – and what to leave at home in ~travel

I spend time at a community space. I recently found a laminated sign while cleaning up that says, approximately "Do not ask people out. If they are here it's because they feel safe and if you ask them out they will not and will leave. It doesn't matter if you have strong feelings for them." Which obviously feels like something someone made a while ago because of a specific incident they experienced. There are other less aggressive signs still on our walls. This sign in particular I have left in a drawer.
Now, it is completely reasonable to not want to be approached romantically. And this space does tend to attract a wide variety of people, including some emotionally needy men who are a nuisance to me - a man - and I'm sure are worse to attractive women. But I can absolutely see men reading it who are not part of the problem getting the idea that they should never approach a woman in public. It's not really possible to put on a sign how to read if someone is interested in you, how long is enough to feel things out, how long is too long, how to flirt, how to accept a rejection, etc. People really should figure all that out as teenagers. But it's sad if someone hasn't figured that out and they are prematurely beat down.
