well NL doesn't have apple pay / apple news but i managed to get them working by switching to UK locale i think

that would be very odd, nearly all systems of this kind default to identification through the card issuer

I installed the GM and there’s no button for removing the beta profile under settings > general

does Tim automatically remove the beta profile upon installation of the GM?

lots of 4k tvs have horrible, horrible upscaling. the native 4k content will look better than 1080p not because you actually needed 4k, but because your tv manufacturer was lazy.

either way, apple sells boxes

i don't have a 4K but I'm going to buy the 4K Apple TV, simply because my crazy exgf took my old Apple TV and I guess the 4K Appletv will be at least faster than regular 1080p Apple TV

The configurations are at the bottom of the general setting. Click the beta configuration file and choose to remove it.

Then it's gone already.

I was using the ios11 beta on my iPad and was trying to download the 11 gm but the beta configuration was removed for some reason. I redownloaded it, updated to the GM, and removed the profile. Check that you're not on the beta still.

there's no excuse for any kind of blurry scaling of 1080p content since 4k is just 2x 1080p, so they could just do point sampling and get clean 1080p sized pixels on the 4k display

im sitting down, watching Netflix in the dark, sitting on a park bench, riding the bus

my phone is down in my hand, I can unlock it without looking and when I feel like it I'll look at it. press lock button, unlock it, lock it. I fiddle a lot with my phone, I've noticed since they announced this.

so with Face ID now I have to look down at my phone to unlock it? or do I have to physically raise it, and how much ?

also these lasers being fired at my face, what are the chances something breaks, some lens is miscalibrated, some software activates some
hidden frequency and it loving blinds me?

having to look at it is an optional setting that's on by default (for security and battery reasons), but you can disable that if you want

if i was convinced the 2018 se would be a miniaturised 8 without any lost features, i'd wait. i'm not so i won't

also 64gb entry level is decent for my needs

it was pointed out in another thread (or maybe through reddit I don't remember anymore) that geekbench for phones and geekbench for computers are very different beasts and that you can't really compare the results.

yeah, phones are a lot more thermally constrained than computers. imagine what this beast could do if it had active cooling.

comparing different architectures is difficult but geekbench is a pretty decent overall measurement.

the magic of kinect is that they marketed it really well so it actually sold ok at first, until people figured out that fruit ninja and just dance were literally the only good applications of it but at that point micrtosoft had pivoted their two actually decent studios 100% onto kinect stuff and well :rip:
