lmao, just try to figure out what the cloud icons in iTunes mean, without googling it, when you're trying to figure out why your music isn't synced with iTunes match.

agreed iTunes is bad and always has been, but force touch is like an extra invisible icon you don't even know about til you stumble on it.

edit: lol Awful.app has a 'thread preview' if you hard-press a thread in the listing, how useful :o:

the new apple tv also appears to gently caress up upscaling

they've also always sucked at imax formats and end up pan & scan'ing them, but that's old hat

[blockquote]I was really expecting — hoping! — this thing would blow me away.

But the new Apple TV doesn’t support Atmos. And it doesn’t support YouTube in 4K HDR. And it doesn’t have Disney or Marvel movies in 4K HDR. And it makes some 1080p content look less than great.[/blockquote]

they just blacklisted protube, so they probably felt like they had to keep up appearances slightly

major ios updates always reenable bluetooth, see if that crap's on for one

leaving bluetooth on might account for 1% over a day if it's not connected to anything. stop pretending like it's some major drain. it's probably just indexing still

it has more to do with giving the user the option to disable bluetooth/wireless, and then just ignoring because apple thinks people don't know any better.

ARKit is the part that figures out you're looking at a flat surface and where the phone is in relation to it, but CoreML is what figures out that it's a Sudoku puzzle and what the pre-filled-in numbers are. :eng101:

yeah this is actually smart. wifi is still on, it's just disconnected you from your wifi at that location and won't reconnect until either your location changes significantly, you toggle it back on, or you manually rejoin the network (or 5am the next day). effectively solving the 'forgot to turn wifi back on and used up all my data' problem. if you want it fully and completely turned off you just go into settings and turn it off

it's just overanalytical busybodies who write for the verge and wear studded bracelets who are upset by it

Hmm, yes, take a picture, upload it to Google, then hope their thing recognizes it and solves it ~In The Cloud~

OR

Point your iPhone at it and it gets recognized & solved almost instantly on the device

🤔 Which of these is easier and also more impressive 🤔

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.
