I tend to think they distilled Dark Sky into their Weather app, made it dead simple to quickly get the info needed. Only real competitor for UX was/is Yahoo weather. Wunderground swallowed WSI and dropped several of their best features.

Apps should follow the same rules as texting / calling. If I say “stop contacting me” to subscribe or to go “pro”, then that’s it. Nagging me every third screen makes your app a hair’s-breadth from unusable.

So let me get this straight, Qualcomm is betting that someone is going to switch processors, operating systems, ecosystems, all because they can’t figure out how to turn off the notifications in macOS? Is that person going to switch to windows phon…

Ya know... For someone who remembers what it took to draw a single static line on the screen on an Apple ][, this sort of thing is fundamentally amazing and also just plain amazing. Glad there are still new things to try with interface elements.…

Really? This is the result of a small percentage of the human race who didn't like the ad, amplified by the "everyone run to the same side of the boat" effect that social media creates. I may have suggested a funnel - or some other metaphor - but…

Good. Recently moved our biz eMail service to Exchange. Their (seemingly ever-changing) login verification system is a twisty path for all involved. This will at least put it in the set-it-and-forget-it realm for Apple users.

Halle-freakin-lujah!

At the very least release it for iPadOS. Design consistency in macOS would be nice, but Apple - it's a basic app - stop me from installing pCalc on all 3 platforms. pCalc is great, but it can't have the same design on all 3 platforms either. Clo…

Why is there still an iPad Air with 19 grams (that's 4 US nickels) difference from the standard iPad? Mini. iPad. Pro. Done.

Finally sold mine in 2022. A great workhorse. Bought as a $900 refurb, lasted the same time as 3-1/2 $300 (“but they’re cheaper!) wintels.

The cynical view is that this is simply a threat to Apple’s profits if they allow 3rd party apps direct to devices. The actual threat / gain to customers is security. Due to the integrated nature of Apple’s ecosystem. Which is priceless. Actually,…

Wanna make a great app? God bless ya. Go for it. But forging HW identity to do so will not work for long. It may or may not be a path to a vulnerability, but Apple can’t take that risk. As for your revenue projections, which are likely being waved …

They want to build something cool for messaging, great. They want to work with Apple, great. But doing this by - as I understand it - spoofing the identity of a legit Apple device - is not the way to go. No non-FOSS company would. Especially one…

They've got the ad-as-story thing down. Fuzzy, the Apple at Work series, etc. Google is learning from them and their ads are getting better at the human part of what you do with tech. I can't imagine MS doing this caliber of work.

The number of people whose docs only exist in Google space is remarkable. Backup? What? It’s Google. They’re big and famous. What could go wrong?

OnLive could do this on the console and in a browser. They had to quickly change the instance from retail Win to Server, as they only had the rights to Server for distribution. Can't entirely remember how/where you saved, IIRC is was on a local …

greg.edwards69 said: It is worth noting, that Adobe recommends 16gb ram for Lightroom on both windows and mac. Apparently there are some issues with Adobe's memory management with apple silicon. If this is resolved, then I guess Apple might …

If it was that beneficial, they would have made a keyboard with it so that iMac and Studio and Pro users could benefit.
