It was a cool visual but I have to admit it felt wrong destroying all of the stuff for a cool visual. The iPad will never replace real world experiences. It can help produce art and music but real world objects can never be replaced by digital replicated ones. Using real paint, playing a real instrument, or playing an original arcade game is just not the same on an iPad. I love technology but certain thing can just not be replicated.
The first iPhone didn’t even have third party apps. I’m not saying the Vision Pro will make it but even the iPhone had its issues to begin with. I’d like it to succeed because I think it has potential. It is super expensive but hopefully that will get better. But you’re right the iPhone got way more expensive. Although I suspect the first iPhones were highly subsidized to begin with and I doubt the Visio Pro is.
Well it depends on the size of the one time payment. A 6 or 7 figure one time payment would likely get a maintainer to do something. But micro$oft should really be paying a long term support contract for sure.
Pretty sure a decent resin printer has enough resolution for a record. Not sure about durability though.
I’m just waiting on this so work will buy me one. Hurry up Tim Apple.
With a dark theme.
Neat. $130 neat? Um no.
This is some of the worst game music I’ve ever heard and I’ve been gaming since the late 70s.
Yeah I’m not paying $700 and then another almost $300 per year for something unproven. It sounds neat but not that neat.
This dude is just waiting for that plastic shit to get off of his nice warm spot.
I’m not even close to a video person but this type of video really makes this stuff understandable and accessible to us laypersons. Very well done.
I can already remote play games on Xbox and ps5 with my iPhone. With a Bluetooth paired controller and display port output wouldn’t the essentially be 95% of the way to a cool steam-link type device?
This sentence was overly hard to parse.
“I would be surprised if Apple ever mentions this in a keynote. “
Unfortunately this is like feeding a dog from the table to get them to go away. You’re essentially rewarding bad behavior.
Unless there is ever an incentive to not lose your luggage or a punishment if they do the airlines will continually do this.
Why? I don’t want an system that looks out of date 5 years after I buy an expensive car and likely not even paid off. I just want a screen that displays the software and hardware that is likely updated every year. I don’t want another damn subscription to use services I am already paying for. This car companies are greedy and short sighted.
How can something that is not really sentient have something like racial bias that requires sentience. It is merely parroting the racial bias used to train it in the first place. Headlines like this annoy me.
If you don’t like the outcomes maybe they should have used better data. Reminds me of the very old computer science notion of GIGO: garbage in garbage out.
You want me to upgrade a phone pretty quickly? Tell me I can use it a week without having to recharge. I know we aren’t anywhere near that but I would pay a lot for that.
I think it’s a terrible idea and will turn general purpose computing into walled gardens that will kill macs in the long run.
But seriously I think some of the “unification” of the UI is going in the wrong direction. Different devices need different interfaces because they are used for different things. Some of the recent design changes for MacOS have simplified the experience at the expense of functionality and I’m not a big fan.
A good example for me is stage manager. I think as an idea it works for an iPad but is confusing as fuck on my Mac pro. I have two 43 monitors so I don’t lack for screen real estate. Plus the implementation is just wonky trying to figure out how the app groupings work on two monitors. I just don’t like it at all. I understand it’s optional but at some point it may not be.
Another example is Settings. The new interface looks very IOS-like but some functionality was just removed, like network locations …yes I know it sorta came back in 13.2.1, but why did it go away in the first place. I suspect it was either overlooked or they added it back when people complained, likely the latter especially since a very prominent functionality is now hidden under “…” now.
Long story short, stop dumbing down my machine to help me. I’ve been using these machines for a very long time and I sometimes know what I’m doing 😀
God I miss that feeling of going into an arcade when I was like 15 years old. Just that feeling of wonderment and escape. No cares, no responsibilities, nothing hurt 🙃, the excitement of getting to level you hadn’t seen, all of it.
Granted this was like 40 years ago and the games are a lot better now and I’m playing on a giant TV in my own bonus room but I truly miss those times. Especially the not hurting part 😂
English is weird but this is right. It might read better if it was “and then later they found out he had been disgraced and forced to quit as police chief.”
