I love that people were like ‘wahh, I never use all that power in my iPad Pro for anything!' so Apple designers + engineers went 'sick, that means we can render high-poly 3d tools with this new Apple Pencil Pro to cast dynamic shadows at 120fps’

European iPhone users will be on a timer once out of the EU: after a ‘grace period’, alternative app marketplaces will stop working.

@sdw I suspect other at least some jurisdictions will catch up soon, as people (voters) ask why they don’t have the same privileges.

The question I still have is how they detect that. Geographical restrictions are usually very easy to bypass so I've never even seen this "only in the EU" as any significant obstacle worth one's attention. But their maniacal insistence on enforcing their stupid DRM outside of the EU — not even just for non-EU accounts but the "physically located" part — can't be good for their reputation, to put it mildly.

I asked this new ‘AI UI design tool' startup to make me a pro iPhone camera app UI and it literally calls itself Halide in its Settings UI without any prompting from me. uhhh...

I am begging Apple PR to understand that absolutely nobody is insane enough to put a fucking iMac on a kitchen island while you are cooking. end the madness

First fall snow in the mountains tonight. Excited to get out and shoot some wintery Sierra Nevada mountains again this year.

The Dynamic Island. The Magic Port. USB-C The Action Button. The Dynamic Island, Magic Port, USB-C, the Action Button. Are you getting it? These are not four separate features.

@sdw Was anyone patronizing the TWA Hotel? It’s a magnificent rehab with eye-popping prices and IME chronic service issues.

Wow, this is absolutley horrible news. Not only is Apollo a great app, Reddit’s management is lying about, slandering and vilifying one of the nicest guys in our indie app world while unceremoniously killing off an app he worked on for many years. https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_will_close_down_on_june_30th_reddits/ |
@sdw freakin’ amazing. Must’ve been a passion project for an employee. Making it better for customers!
@sdw I love this, but also gotta admit this is extremely low poly in modern computing. Queue Biggie’s Things Done Changed.
