Amethyst posted:loving swiftui is out, a new declarative ui paradigm and you ABSOLUTE LOSERS are talking about the stand There are no autolayout or “what’s new in cocoa touch” sessions (though the is an appkit one).. SwiftUI is definitely the future. Marzipan/Catalyst is basically already outdated.

Microsoft has been trying to make the Xbox more than just game console since the original Xbox. The only reason they made the Xbox in the first place was because they were afraid Sony was going to take over the living room and from there the PC. Then it turned out that it was smart phones that are killing most of the PC market.

Can someone explain to me the love for Function keys? I literally have no idea what they were ever used for. Also I absolutely will never let go of my GUI security blanket so you may have to dumb down your explanation for me.

Sagebrush posted:Imagine paying $10 a month to read back issues of Car And Driver How many times has Apple tried to relaunch newsstand?

The Management posted:the Bluetooth audio world is a clusterfuck of broken implementations that barely work. every change or bug fix to the iOS bt audio control software breaks some number of cars because they’re all incompatible with each other. See: BT headphones and speakers with volume controls independent from the phone’s. Also my car will also autoplay music from the music app when whatever when the previous audio app was killed, but it’s random. Instead of starting with “A” it will pick a random song and then start playing songs in alphabetical order from there.

I want to like IB because when it (and @IBInspectable and @IBDesignable) works it feels like magic... but it breaks so easily. I don’t even have issues with merge conflicts, just inscrutable render errors (“the agent crashed!”), views complaining their size or location is ambiguous until a refresh, and debug console spam about conflicting constraints when there is the absolute minimum of constraints possible. Edit: Is there any proof the Apple actually uses IB despite how much they push it? There is no way Apple dog foods it for how buggy it is.

The Management posted:3g to LTE was a huge jump in bandwidth and capacity. LTE to 5G won’t be a noticeable difference unless you’re a device that uses the network’s low latency slice (your phone isn’t). Yeah when I fall back to 3G it might as well just fallback to phone calls only. Nothing that requires a data connection gets in or out.

If the new style widgets are anything like on the watch (which I believe they are. SwiftUI feed style widgets) then the data they display will always be out of sync because it only gets updated when the os feels like it.

Twerk from Home posted:Apple's lovely backwards compatibility isn't anything new, and devs aren't obligated to maintain things forever for free. I own a copy of Duskers I can’t play currently because it’s 32-bit (though why someone was making a 32-bit game in 2016 I don’t know. Though the same could be said of Apple dropping 32 bit support). No chance for an update because the dev team broke up right after release. TOOT BOOT posted:They're not but the end result is that I basically stopped buying apps except maybe once a year, and I don't have any ad-supported apps either Same. I would even pay for a new version but what usually happens is the app is just abandoned. e.g. Editorial which hasn’t been updated in forever.

haveblue posted:an ipad or iphone going full bore can easily become uncomfortable to touch in spots so let's hope they're a little more aggressive for the laptop The 4K apple tv has a fan. It’s only an A10X, which was in the 2017 iPad Pro and the non-X version in the iPhone 7, but it should be able to provide a comparison for fan vs no fan performance at least. I can’t seem to find any benchmarks on it though. hobbesmaster posted:they’re nowhere near as bad as the latest MacBooks pro though Yeah I think the 16” always uses the dGPU when it’s plugged into an external monitor so mine is always pumping out a good amount of heat, even if the fan itself is inaudible. Doing anything that’s not watching a video or browsing the web makes it sound like a jet engine and makes it hot enough to be unusable as a laptop.

Edit: Geekbench scores. Not sure how someone managed to run one yet, though.Last Chance posted:
I’m withholding my judgement until these actually get into people’s hands. Hard to believe those performance numbers. Also presumably the Air would eventually be thermally throttled and the 16” would overtake it. The air cooled M1 13” pro though... If those numbers are real though, Intel should consider themselves incredibly lucky that Apple probably has no desire to sell these chips to anyone else. They basically just had a heart attack in a hospital and really need to think about getting their poo poo together.

BobHoward posted:... Even with Intel Mads you can’t run 32bit x86 apps in Catalina. Maybe Apple wasn’t sure at the time but they might as well have just kept 32 bit support for Catalina and dropped it with macOS 11 and the transition to Arm. (Though really I guess I’m just bitter that there were some games I wanted to play that were ported to Mac as 32 bit apps. Duskers was released as only a 32 bit app in 2016!  )

Car companies do deals with competitors all the time. Edit: The Toyota 86 and the Subaru BRZ are the same car with some small cosmetic changes.
