2017 MacBook Pro or 2018 MacBook Air?

I'm in the process of deciding between these two laptops that'll be purchased for business use brand new. The MacBook Pro is $1599 which is $200 off MSRP while the MacBook Air is at MSRP. My main uses will be video editing and AutoCAD, maybe some gaming.

MacBook Pro advantages:
Better Geekbench score
Better GPU
Brighter display with wide gamut

MacBook Air advantages:
Lighter
TouchID
Supposedly improved keyboard

I think I am leaning towards the MacBook Pro, the only thing that would sway me to the Air is TouchID. No, I don't have the budget to go up to a TouchID MacBook Pro.

My alternate is continuing to work on a 2009 iMac which is quite slow, sometimes annoying with AutoCAD, really annoying when trying to video edit (it's slow).

Announcing The Utter Failure Of Federal Prisons

Today it was announced that the Canadian federal prison system is a complete and utter failure. Jaysus H Christ it's a prison. No prison should have any drugs inside the walls. If that many drugs make it in, something is very wrong.

As a matter of fact, this whole 'safe injection site' bullshite is ridiculous. It is akin to taking an alcoholic to a bar at happy hour and leaving him there with $100, all at taxpayer expense. We need to start teaching school children that if you take street drugs, you WILL die. And then let them if they take drugs later in life.

Federal prison in Alberta expected to be first to open supervised drug injection site

Quote:

EDMONTON — The first supervised drug injection site in the federal corrections system is expected to open as early as the end of June at the penitentiary in Drumheller, Alta., according to the union representing federal correctional officers. Correctional Service Canada, the government department that runs federal prisons across the country, has refused to confirm or deny whether or not the union’s statement was accurate. “CSC received an exemption from Health Canada to permit the implementation of an overdose prevention service at Drumheller Institution,” said a statement emailed to the National Post Friday from Correctional Service Canada spokesperson Stephanie Stevenson. “Discussions and planning concerning the implementation of an overdose prevention service are ongoing.” (Health Canada, which, the union said approves the permitting process for such facilities, said it “does not discuss the details regarding exemption applications.”) However, Jeff Wilkins, national president of the Union of Canadian Correctional Officers, said his organization has been told it will be in place by month’s end. The news comes as federal corrections officers planned to march through the streets of Ottawa Friday to protest the system currently in place in some prisons, a needle exchange that sees fresh needles distributed to inmates, who tend to have much higher rates of HIV and hepatitis C, to prevent needle-sharing. “The correctional officers are dead set against the prison needle-exchange and the current way it’s being rolled out,” Wilkins told the Post in a Thursday interview, saying officers are concerned about their safety. As it stands, inmates are given needles in their cells and it’s the responsibility of correctional officers to distribute them. Wilkins said this isn’t solving the problem of needle sharing, and that as harm reduction “is in fact a health-care issue,” a more effective program would include overdose-prevention sites staffed by health-care workers. The program at the Drumheller Institution, a medium-security prison about 130 northeast of Calgary, will be run by health-care workers “under the supervision of” correctional officers, Wilkins said. "We recognize that drugs on occasion will make their way into our penitentiaries." While needle exchanges in prisons have been around for a long time in other countries — Switzerland has had one since 1992 — the system in Canada is relatively new. A pilot project began in this country’s federal prison system in June 2018 at the Grand Valley Institution in Ontario and Atlantic Institution in New Brunswick. As of 2018, Correctional Service Canada estimated 1.2 per cent of inmates had HIV, a rate approaching 10 times that of the general population, where 65,000 of 37 million Canadians have HIV, according to the Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research. In January 2019, the program was expanded to four other institutions. The government said there have been no overdoses in federal prisons as a result of the exchange program. “As with all CSC policy and program decisions, the safety and security of staff, the public and inmates are always paramount,” said an email from Stevenson. “CSC continues to have discussions with unions and staff as the program rolls out to address any concerns.” She said there have been no instances of needles being used as weapons in Canadian prisons. Wilkins said correctional officers have found one needle in the cell of an inmate to whom it was not given, suggesting prisoners are still sharing needles. “We know that they have the ability to share the needles that are being given to them by the government.” The drugs that will be used at the site are contraband, said Stevenson, not provided by the government “We recognize that drugs on occasion will make their way into our penitentiaries. Recognizing this reality, we have a responsibility to safeguard the well-being of those under our care,” she wrote.

iTunes fear

I was just reading a CBS News report on the demise of iTunes. Disturbingly, it suggests that songs bought on the site since it premiered in 2001 might require an annual subscription to the new Music app to be playable! Someone, please, tell me it ain't so!

Terminal icons on desktop

I have these showing and don't know why. This is a new laptop for me (MBP 2014) and they've just shown up. If I double-click one of them, it opens Terminal.

How do I get rid of them or close them or...?

Thanks!
