I hope the sideload feature has toggles to forbid access to basically everything.. no photos, no camera, no microphones, no usb, no contacts, no icloud, no nothing. It's just a sad little binary that can only dig around in a private sandbox with no friends.

On the one hand, countless grannies will be financially ruined by fake side-loaded banking apps while on the other I'll be able to install an SNES emulator so overall I think it will be a net positive

How open is the sideloading requirement anyway? Is Apple allowed to still require it passes their certification and everything to function, or is it wild west?

It’ll probably be like Macos where it will pop up a warning that you have to open the security center to dismiss

what's the best camera app these days that i can use when i'm wanting to shoot in RAW? I had obscura years ago, but it seems to have not been updated much and feels pretty clunky (though i think they all will on a phone)

JAY ZERO SUM GAME posted:what's the best camera app these days that i can use when i'm wanting to shoot in RAW? I had obscura years ago, but it seems to have not been updated much and feels pretty clunky (though i think they all will on a phone) If you have a lightroom subscription try the camera it comes with, it's full manual and works as well as touch screen exposure settings are capable. I tried Halide and I really didn't like it, it tries to be everything to everyone where it toes all kinds of stuff automatically at the same time it gives you manual controls and I found it fussy and slow. I see why people like it but it was nowhere near good enough to add their subscription on top of my adobe subscription. If you're content with the phone doing exposure settings, the stock camera app is fine too. You have to go through settings.app to set up the ability to take raw photos and once you do you get a toggle on the camera screen to easily enable/disable it.

oh i didn't know that i only had to change the setting once and then i'd get a quick toggle. that might be sufficient. i don't have an adobe sub anymore. thank you

Yeah, it's the "ProRAW & Resolution Control" toggle buried in settings.app for the camera. That's what adds the button to the camera to turn it off and on quickly.

General Apple info but they announced that they are raising rates on Apple TV+ to $9.99 (currently $6.99). They are also raising the rates on Apple Arcade, Apple News and both Apple One subscription set ups.

I watch way more Apple TV+ than I do Netflix these days. In fact Netflix is probably next on the chopping block for me. gently caress 'em.

I cancelled Netflix after having it forever. I don’t want a ton of Apple TV content, but I get the Apple one for the family so even with the price increase it’s still a good deal for everything we use.

Apple One Premium subscription is $37/mo now  I'd be willing to drop down to the mid tier but that only has 200gb iCloud storage and the family has 500gb up in there now. FCKGW fucked around with this message at 03:13 on Nov 18, 2023 |

Netflix has been solidly in the "subscribe for a month and watch everything once a year or so" category for a while.

The crapification of streaming is well underway but for now we're still better off than cable because it's trivial to cancel one service when they have nothing to watch. It's an annoying chore but it wasn't possible to pick and choose in the cable days. In response I figure they'll start hiding cancellation buttons or doing minimum length contracts sometime in the next few years.

If I could easily buy the seasons of some of their shows, I would probably drop AppleTV+. But we are going through Verizon so it is only $10 for Apple One at least for now.

FCKGW posted:Apple One Premium subscription is $37/mo now This is how they got me. Apple Music and iCloud 2TB are perma-subscriptions for me, and once you add in Apple TV+, then it’s only a dollar more to get the Premium sub which includes News, Arcade, and Fitness, so I just do it. If I ever want to cancel Apple TV+ though, then it’s probably worth dropping the premium plan.

Depending how many services you subscribe to anyways. YouTube tv in particular will drain you for $73 a month and has all the same unwatchable garbage cable does.

You can see a different manifestation of it it in the screenshot below when I zoomed out from 1x to 0.5x by using the preset. I don’t think I’ve updated iOS since before this started, still on 17.0.2 on my 15 Pro.
