Kind of a deal breaker, from my angle
Then there's the stuff about 1Password. I feel his pain. Only I also use Things.app and OmniOutliner and DayOne, and a bunch of other apps that sync with my iPhone, which - frankly - you can pry from my cold dead hands.
OS X has definitely been getting more irritating, and don't get me started on the new Apple TV, of which I foolishly bought two.
But that I can lie in bed, and without touching anything say "Hey Siri, remind me to send John a birthday card", and it'll show up in Things.app tomrrow morning ... the future is here.
- knite 11y agoI've been considering the new Apple TV - could you share what you dislike about it?
- peteretep 11y agoI watch a lot of TV series. When I say "Homeland" to it, it takes me to a page about Homeland in general. From there I have to select a poorly named button to say "I want to see the episodes I own", and then I have to scroll along with no visual indication of which I've watched. When I hit Menu from that, I'm dropped in to the main menu, with no obvious way back. If I go in via TV Show from the main menu, it's a different UI that works more sensibly. This and 101 other minor irritations with the UI just get between me and my content.
- qbrass 11y agoSuspend on lid close actually does (or should) work on that laptop. It's just not enabled by default because suspend doesn't work on everything. Adding: hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=s3 to /etc/sysctl.conf should enable it.
