Meanwhile, giant ants like to follow along the trail you leave.

As someone who has a broken vacuum cleaner, I can say with confidence that it sucks badly.

Are you sure you're not addicted to port?

I had to stop and think about it, but then I was clear continue scrolling.

I love this feature so much it's useful in so many different cases. I just wish there was an option to control how the scaling happens. Sometimes the blur is nice, but when I'm developing software I often just want to see crispy pixel edges.
