That time I had conveyor belt sushi at the airport.
I used to use VirtualBox in the past, but it stopped working on my Mac after an update so I switched to Parallels. VirtualBox was also a pain when it did work. I’m much happier with Parallels.
They fell out of the accessibility tree and hit every branch on the way down. Impressive, actually.
