i am still doing well with my 2013 macbook air for general use but it's way too slow to work with camera raws so i think i'll just upgrade the home desktop pc from "$360 costco hp tower + monitor bundle" to an imac of some kind. not really sure what i'd need to run ps+lr well but i'll figure it out when i actually get closer to buying, maybe in the new year

whatever happened to that egpu thing, maybe you could use that? i don’t know anything about camera work

cannot wait for phones that require you to hold the phone perfectly in front of your face which will be very convenient for muggers since you're basically handing it to them

if you’re getting mugged it doesn’t really matter how you’re holding your phone

like i said, it'll be convenient for the muggers because they don't have to make you take your phone out of your pocket, they can just take it out of your hand as you wave it in front of your face trying to unlock it

apple cares about its users by enabling violence-free criminal interactions

if you forked out a grand for iphonex you might as well use faceid which has actually been made with a lot of thought and care put into its security implementation

it is however idiotic that you can use touchid to access your entire web keychain right now, i’m assuming you can use faceid to do the same, that’s a very real privacy concern right there

I've read a bajillion books on iBooks for iPad, iPhone, Mac, and I've never had any issues. Maybe you're holding the iBook wrong?

its insanely dumb to not be able to copy text chunks, or to not be able to export pdfs to other apps from iBooks

its not very well integrated, basically

there's a secret way to export PDFs from ibooks, you gotta hit the share button, then print, then on the print preview you use a pinch zoom in gesture on the preview page, then hit the share button that appears at the top of the page. this process also shows off two different share buttons present in iOS11

thank you but also i am absolutely flabbergasted at how stupid this is
