Larry Parrish posted:I'm working retail while I wait for college to start and Apple Pay or any other contactless NFC payment system is totally pointless because company policy still requires people to enter their PINs manually for debit accounts or to sign all receipts for credit accounts. It's slower and more of a hassle to use them. way to go not working for a place pro enough to embrace Square as the One True POS system

Every time I turn the ignition, it thinks I want to start playing Song #1 of 18,667. Bluetooth solves this problem, thus marking the only time in history when a wireless connection was superior to a wired one.

ComradeCosmobot posted:yeah proper surveying/mapmaking is not cheap, and as simple and comprehensive as osm seems, making it truly navigable (e.g. turn restrictions, signage, speeds, etc) is a non-trivial project there's still lots of areas around the world that barely have maps in cities, and basically none once you get outside of them. gently caress, I pulled up OSM for a random place in Uganda and they had building outlines for cities and towns, and Google Maps was pretty much all of the roads in town. A shocking percentage of the world doesn't have street addresses, even in surprisingly 'developed' countries. Related: Mapswipe is a pretty neat app for highlighting areas that need OSM coverage that's unfortunately buggy as poo poo and breaks when you try to download tiles to process offline

the original reason why Facebook split Messenger out into its own app was because they didn't want to go over the cellular download size limit for apps. Weren't they complaining about XCode kept breaking because their projects were too big so they had to do some weird breaking up of their app?

at this point I expect T-Mobile to put out another press release saying that they're the best carrier because they let you add an Apple Watch for free/99 cents per month. pretty sure the only reason they didn't do it on day 1 was because they didn't seem to know it was really coming to begin with (other than the engineering people). See: them throttling it to 512 kbps because uhhhhhhhhh nobody told me this was any different than the Samsung Watch

Kenny Logins posted:if you don't want touchbar your options are MacBook, MBA or refurb MBP you can get the 13" MBP without Touch Bar, and it is honestly the best model because it uses a lower power processor (that is not much slower than the model with the touch bar), but also has a physically bigger battery so you get great battery life.

with the Files app and multitasking I feel like I'm fighting the OS significantly less when I'm using my iPad Pro Mini. When I have someone who's clutching a 2007 MacBook still and are looking to finally replace it, i pretty much say "does using a computer scare you in general? If so, you should buy an iPad and a keyboard. The chances of you getting startled by a dialog box are significantly less common." Flipping between the app that I'm using on one side of the split screen still feels real janky tho.

fyi: if you break your phone/watch/ipad and have AppleCare+ you can call them up and say the magic words "I want an express service replacement" they'll overnight you a new device for the same cost as you getting it fixed, and you just send back the old one when you get it.

It wasn't one of these things you can make up on volume. And in hindsight, the forecasted cost was wrong and the volume was 100x what anyone thought."
