Next in "Are we getting trolled?": they're doing an entire segment on AirPods.
- kick 6y agoSomething probably unintentional that they're highlighting with this particular presentation style (frequent female presenters, infrequent male presenters) is that seemingly every role that they require someone in a position of power talking for, it's male, while the grunt work doesn't seem to have been at all. Personal progressiveness mixed with systemic sexism?
- kick 6y ago"You all have trouble sleeping so we're going to make your phone teach you yoga and meditation" is a very weird thing to do automatically instead of just blue-light reduction (which they already have a feature for) seems weird, but they know the market better than I do I guess.
- kick 6y agoAll of the Watch features feel like they're aimed at a significantly younger demographic than the rest.
- kick 6y agoFilm adaptions of Asimov have been pretty poor but this could be interesting.
- kick 6y agoA full redesign of Mac? Well, this can't go well.
- kick 6y agoAh, yeah, Mac is now fully iOS-like design wise. The new icons look really bad.
- kick 6y agoIt looks like Deepin but slightly less polished, which is funny, because Deepin was Mac but slightly less polished.
- kick 6y agoComplete murder of contrast.
- kick 6y agoControl Center shows up, confirming that this was just to make it all like iOS.
- kick 6y agoWebExtensions will probably be a huge benefit to Mac users.
- kick 6y agoAaaand there's the ARM release.
- kick 6y agoKind of mundane. Apple's chips trump many desktop chips, so I imagine the Mac might get an edge on performance again, which would be interesting. They're probably going to blow it though.
- kick 6y agoI wonder if this means that they're going to put the final bullet in the Mac for Linux with an iOS-like TPM.
- dhosek 6y agoWhen I read the Foundation books a few years back, I was thinking about what it would take to film them and the biggest challenge I saw was the overwhelming sexism in the storytelling and characterizations. That part of Asimov's writing has not aged well. Not sure how the puzzlebox plots would translate to the screen.
- kick 6y agoAbsolutely agree.
