It takes all the running you can do just to stay in the same place.
In visionOS, apps can fill the space around you, beyond the boundaries of a display. They can be moved anywhere, scaled to the perfect size, react to the lighting in your room, and even cast shadows.

my partner got super excited over buying an ipad during the pandemic and i was like "are you sure your gunna use it?" "oh yes definitely! its gunna replace all my devices". so she got one and then used it like 3x total in 3 years and it's just been collecting dust since

i've recently repurposed it for work by installing Pix4D Mapper so i can do photogrammetic 3d models with it in the field since it's got a lidar scanner on the camera but lol it sucks otherwise.

so yeah having people sign waivers and getting toddlers to be quiet. ios tablets are loving terrible devices

Yeah a lot of people love em for digital art stuff. idk if the v1 pencil is just worse or it's not for me tho bc I got gifted one a friend didn't use and I find it super awkward. Reading manga on a tablet rules tho, so I guess there's that.

Anyways they put it in their ads for this dumbass headset that it'll be great for Facetime!
"But how," you ask, "don't you have a whole fuckin thing on your face?"
Well don't worry!!! They thought of that!!! it will use a 3D MODEL OF YOUR HEAD in the facetime! how efficient and comfortable :)

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

you can record your guitar into the ipad on a multitracker, use a bunch of insanely professional free synthesisers and effects, use it to control lighting rigs ...? i play cello, guitar and piano and the ipad is an excellent music tool. you can comfortably record a decent sounding album on it.

yep. an enormous amount of my profession would love a premium tablet display that isn't wacom dogshit. Is it a well designed workhorse? I'll pay a few thousand bucks for it, whatever. also ipad pro and procreate completely changed the industry.

I've got a fantasy about how AR could work amazingly for digital artists but it would require exhaustive native support from a huge amount of major software packages so I dunno if its going to happen or if steve apple ski goggles are the ticket
