Comfy Fleece Sweater posted:been using the touch bar since release, still loving stinks and there hasn't been a single day I go "oh that was very cool and useful" the touchbar esc key is so bad, they move it over an inch and literally have an empty bezel in the spot where a physical escape key could be just as an extra gently caress you to the user. just abort the whole thing and put face id in next year's model timb

all apple needs to do is help the cpu-intensive x86 developers to support ipad pro, which already exists. they can make a switch once the important apps that would suffer under emulation are on board

Generic Monk posted:i handbraked a few wmvs i (somehow) had lying around over to h265 in order to somehow jusitfy installing a beta operating system. for some reason wanted to use quicktime player for the first time in like 15+ years, and wasn't encoding my 100GB 10-bit anime fansub rips so plopped them in an mp4 container. turns out quicktime requires some bespoke artisanal mp4 container because it choked on them. probably holding it wrong tho high sierra plays hvc1 h265 mp4s while handbrake and ffmpeg only create hev1 h265 mp4s ffmpeg can convert an hev1 h265 mp4 into an hvc1 h265 mov without reencoding, but can't make hvc1 h265 mp4s the magic command is code: #codeclife

The Management posted:I love you  i asked this in the grey forums but the other weird thing in high sierra i found is that it keeps media from the internet quarantined even after being scanned and opened. e.g. if i download a large pdf or a high-def copy of anal milfs 5, it "verifies" the file every time i open it and this can take a while for larger files. i can remove the com.apple.quarantine xattribute to fix this but i still want it to do its thing the first time.. anyone itt know what's up with this, is it the intended behavior? wasn't like this on sierra afaik but haven't seen much about this online

duTrieux. posted:okay, seriously, what the gently caress do people do to their cables every lightning cable i've ever had frayed within about a year, and both magsafe charge cables. never had anything happen to any other cable, including all manner of USB and power cables for PCs, and micro-USB cables used for charging kindles and an android phone. im pretty sure its damage that gradually builds up bc apple is allergic to cable stress relief. how do you charge your iphone? i charge mine overnight on a horizontal surface with the lightning cable dangling down towards a power outlet (which is a pretty reasonable thing to do, imo). it also subjects the cable to small amounts of shearing stress which apparently makes apple cables gradually disintegrate

Doc Block posted:I do the same thing, but have never had the cables fray because I pull them out by the plug like a regular person instead of by the cable like an illiterate ape. there must be another factor i guess. but even if i were rough on my cables (im not) it wouldn't explain power cables for nearly a dozen PC laptops? never frayed serial, parallel, PS/2, USB, and proprietary cables for various mice, keyboards, external hard drives, printers? never frayed mini/micro-USB charger cables for kindles, wireless headphones, and misc cheapo chinese gadgets? never frayed charging cables for every cell phone i've owned before an iphone (including an android)? never frayed 30-pin ipod connectors? frayed over time with normal use lightning connectors? frayed over time with normal use mag-safe chargers? frayed over time with normal use always frayed near the connector, which coincidentally have no stress relief

so, that file quarantine issue with high sierra that i was complaining about? lol it gets worse 1. start with a "safe" file (e.g. take a screenshot) 2. open it in preview or other apple software, then close it. it now has a com.apple.quarantine xattr on it! 3. in finder, go to Get Info and change Open With to any program that's different from a) the current default for that file type, and b) the apple program you just opened it in (so, if Preview is the default for pngs, have your screenshot open by default in Pixelmator, or whatever) 4. try to open the file i assume this is some poorly-executed attempt to... idk, launder a malicious media file through an exploit in trusted software?
