Tim probably gets a daily report on the number of unibody MacBooks pro that upgrade to Pot Mountain to strengthen his resolve to ride this out. next he'll discontinue MagSafe 1 adaptors and let nature take its course.

i havent upgraded to it yet but it seems kinda awful. also my gf was showing me the message screen and all they did was put in an ugly font and bump up MESSAGES to Pt 32x because you may not have noticed you were in messages before with only a pt 12x font? idk e: for comparison, pre-ios10 msg screen  prolly a minor thing to complain about, but why make it so you only show up to 6 msg recipients vs 8? i don't like the BIG GRANDMA FONT direction and if that's all they're doing with that update (i havent followed w/e it does ) then ill probably avoid updating until i accidentally say yes Xaris fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Oct 22, 2017 |

tim finally learned that people were savvy and didn't buy the first iteration of their hardware so now every new product will be redesigned every release so no more weeding out bad designs in the next release, it's just new problems all the time every time

bad EM shielding. in the case of that lovely LG monitor, AFAIK it only happened if the WiFi router was near the monitor. like if you had them both sitting on your desk.

Shaggar posted:apple displays were always repacked panels that dell was using which means many of them were fine and good, aside from the markup. when you look at dell and don't see them making a monitor with the specs you want, it means its not gonna work. someone at lucky goldstar somehow convinced apple otherwise and the result was the comedy anti-wifi displays. again very right. dell was like giving yourself a free check for a second display if you didnt mind not having aluminum bezels Doc Block posted:bad EM shielding. sounds like a poorsumer level desk design

Can someone explain the logic in the goddamn window switcher Mission Control thing It keeps shuffling my window order in apparently random ways and I don't know why it likes changing them I like iTunes or Spotify to be at the end of the line, all the way to the right, but randomly it seems to appear back in the first 3 window places I like my browsers to be together next to each other, but they too just decide to change places for whatever loving reason Hair Force One decided was logical
