the notch! mostly i'm angry about no touch id, and all the goofy gestures they have to account for not having a home button.

there are a lot of ads for the iphone x on hulu. like back to back. I think that's a bad sign for its sales also one commercial focuses entirely on singing animojis

face id works great, the notch is fine, the gestures you gradually learn exactly like you gradually learned all the ways that you could use the home button

the X has effectively stopped people from force closing all their apps to ‘get better battery life because then apps aren’t running in the background’ because the swipe-up-to-force-quit motion in the multitasking switcher is hidden behind another non-obvious gesture so everyone thinks Apple took that away.

Good, force closing apps kills battery.

no it doesn't, it frees up memory that ios is poorly managing

i find it weird that they must've been planning the x for years but still managed to fragment the swipe up from the bottom gesture into totally different functionality on their latest iPhone models (and a weird hybrid on ipad)

sleepwalkers posted:anecdotally, i retrained faceid since i was noticing more and more failures and it seemed to work better. i dunno if it cleared out a bunch of other peoples dumb faces skewing my results since it learns faces if it fails and you enter a passcode or what, but could be worth trying yeah I’ve been doing that, entering my password when it fails due to trying to open it at an angle it does get better and more accurate, and to be fair Face ID works most of the time and it’s really cool... but there’s a bunch of cases where Touch ID was clearly better (just setting the phone on a table and by the time you looked at it it would be unlocked, where now you have to pick it up and look at it) not a Face ID fan tbh it’s the only thing I don’t like about the new phone X

the only time it reliably fails and annoys me is when it’s sitting on a pillow and my face is obviously not in view. i assume i’ll internalize this lesson in another week or so i guess i don’t generally try to use my phone when getting gang-tackled in the middle of a rugby pitch or whatever the gently caress you’re doing, though swiping from the top is so much more reliable than it ever was with my 5s, because a swipe from the bits next to the notch always counts

how and when is faceid "learning"? is it only during failed authentication attempts followed up by successful ones, or does it also do stuff during regular authentication?

Ur sitting wrong. https://www.fastcodesign.com/90155533/what-apples-new-office-chairs-reveal-about-work-in-2018 quote:Moreover, there’s a sense in which offices are being designed to flatter the way that millennial workers would like to see themselves: Not as office drones, but creative types with side hustles and Instagram followers. The offices that companies aspire to, says Orpilla, are those that look creative and make workers feel like they’re part of a creative organization. “People have their own Pinterest pages and personal brands,” he adds. “We’re creating this backdrop for making them feel like creators themselves.” #Influencers don’t clock in. They make #impact from the throne of a lounge chair, not the confines of a cubicle.

Kobayashi posted:Ur sitting wrong. That chair owns and I'm looking for one now for sure In other news: http://fortune.com/2017/12/22/apple-products-design/ "...In fact, enumerating the ways Apple design fails consumers seems to have become an international pastime. Google “Apple design sucks,” and you’ll find a never-ending litany of the seemingly infinite ways that this ostensible paragon of design excellence misses the mark: The Watch isn’t out-of-the-box intuitive; the latest keyboards are annoying and fragile; Apple Pencils are easy to lose; the iPhone has been flawed ever since Apple introduced that camera lens that juts out on the back, and things have gotten worse with the “notch” on the screen of the iPhone X. Belittling headlines abound: “The Myth of Apple’s Great Design” (The Atlantic), “What Happened to Apple’s Faultless Design?” (The Verge), and “Apple Is Really Bad at Design” (The Outline), a recent screed that generated a lot of online chatter. ... “I would argue that Apple design is as good as ever,” says John Gruber, the dean of Apple bloggers. “Look at the most recent products. AirPods last year, and the iPhone X this year, are quintessential Apple products. There’s a huge ‘it just works’ factor to them both.” lol Gruber but even Gruber admits the TouchBar sucks in that article
