bbos was just an incomprehensible mess of arbitrary gestures. also making otherwise identical gestures do different things depending on whether you started on the bezel or the edge of the screen all this in a device marketed to the only people still using a blackberry in 2013, people so resistant to change that they'd use a five-year old cellphone that ran like dogshit when it was new.

apple is more likely to announce a self driving car than they are to announce an updated mac mini

apple has made it pretty clear that they've lost interest in making good products more likely to get a laptop thats 1mm thick and tears if youre not careful opening it than an updated mba or mini

Postmaster GBS posted:shaggar with the absolute deathblow bringing up that smug thumb motion commercial. the back button thing is a crime on the smax, i can reach it with one hand if i borderline fling the phone awkwardly toward my thumb (bad). poorly utilized screen real estate. phone looks and feels great. camera is good. unusable. after going from iphone SE to XS, it turns out that I was doing this a lot less than I thought, but it still pangs every time I try and fail to do it on this gigantic clown shoe phone

rumor says the Mac mini is being rethought for what people actually use them for: racked build machines. I’m sure they’ll screw it up somehow. incidentally, the apple factory line runs on Mac minis. every i-product is flashed and tested etc using minis. apple can never stop making them for this reason.

Generic Monk posted:yeh but you have to turn it on in the settings. reason being is that the gesture is to swipe down from the gesture bar at the bottom, and every single time i've given the phone to someone who doesn't know the swipe up to go home gesture they've invoked that instead wait a minute. swipe down from the status bar? why would it be swiping down from the status bar, if the point of having the feature to move down the screen is to reach high up places on the screen?

Whatever culture of “making consumer products that don’t suck” that you belief exists at Apple will soon be sacrificed at the altar of infinite growth. Capitalism demands that Apple produce more and more expensive, finicky products until the company implodes.
