I swapped for the cooler-looking adb IIGS keyboard back when I had my mac SE but that was like 1991. e: that only had one apple key qirex fucked around with this message at 00:57 on Jan 19, 2018 |

I can't find it due to the proven true mandela effect (shazam, etc) but they definitely had that going up to right before the og imac era. guaranteed.

iigs was the first apple computer to use the adb bus for keyboard/mouse, which was then used by macs after that. open apple became command (which is why until recently the command key had both the apple logo and squiggly thing on it) and closed apple became option. adb keyboards never had the closed apple printed on keycaps tho

So I got a new car with CarPlay and of course you can only use Apple Maps with it, no Google for you. It wont allow you to type in destinations, only to shout at Siri. I know Maps sucks, and Siri sucks too but it's still quite breathtakingly bad. I'm driving in Brighton - a big coastal town - the Miami of England if you will. I ask it for THE GRAND HOTEL BRIGHTON - literally the biggest, most famous hotel in the town (the one the IRA blew up in the eighties) and I get back one result "I found HOTEL MERCURE, LEICESTER" (a random town 200 miles away in the Midlands)

zen death robot posted:maps works for me appears to 100% depend on where you are, google maps is good in most places, apple maps vary quite heavily in quality which is weird as google is otherwise to a great extent pretty bad at localizing their services, but the maps and search teams are pretty on top of this stuff

siri is awful, but apple maps has been pretty great for driving. only - big - issue is you still get these loving alerts, even in driving mode

Dixie Cretin Seaman posted:i don't know enough about apple's algorithms vs what they put in their ad copy to argue with this. i would have assumed bone structure alone wasn't good enough for accurately distinguishing faces but i don't know poo poo about biometrics. I didn’t mean that it sees your bones. it’s a laser that projects a bunch of tiny dots at your face and takes a picture of them. it calculates where the dots are versus where they should be and constructs a 3D model of your face. it then compares the shape and ratios of the major features it sees. in particular, the placement of your eyes, the shape of your head, nose, cheek bones, and jaw. it does not have millimeter accuracy, it’s about getting a good approximation of several of those things that gives it enough confidence to declare that it’s you. it doesn’t see skin color, it doesn’t see your pimples. it can survive your beard or scarf obscuring some things, but maybe not your sunglasses. aluminum foil does a pretty great job keeping my burrito warm. and hair does a great job of keeping my head from baking in the sun.

this wasn't the video i was thinking of but it is similar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oz-Q3tn70k&t=177s you can see it scan her face three times in about the same amount of time it takes her to blink.
