What a useless headline. God forbid they just give the actual capacity rather than some abstract, bullshit, flexible measure that means nothing to anyone.

Good to know. I’m sure I’ll forget by the next time I need to do this, but nice to know it’s an option.

I still don’t get what the compelling use for these is supposed to be. There’s nothing they’ve shown so far that doesn’t seem more awkward and intrusive than it is beneficial, unless maybe if you exist in true isolation at work and at home.

MacOS — making me go into system settings to allow an app to install that I’ve initiated. I know where the app comes from, I just downloaded it, why do I have to tell my own computer I trust myself to not be an idiot?

iPadOS — multitasking. I know that things are better than they used to be but it’s still a clunky experience to use multiple windows or flip back and forth between them unless you use a keyboard (at which point why wouldn’t I just use a laptop?)

iOS — not a lot these days. I’d still like to be able to customise my Home Screen layouts more, and shortcuts are still pretty unreliable, but I’m largely happy with iOS itself.

watchOS — better customisation for the widgets section. Let me have multiple complication/shortcut blocks, let me organise widgets more easily, etc. More watch faces would be nice too. A lot of the ones that are available are pretty ugly.

On the off chance that this isn’t just a troll post, what were you hoping to do that you couldn’t figure out? Macs are incredibly flexible and capable computers that do waaaay more than iOS devices are capable of. The OS and hardware obviously still have their limits, but if you’re running into actual limitations then you’ve likely already far exceeded what your phone can do.

My guess would be that once we start hitting walls with USB C, there’ll likely be a consortium or group of companies that come together to propose a new standard and propose/lobby for govts to add update the existing laws with that as another option of connector.

More difficult for companies than just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks, but overall less of a shitty experience for consumers.

Ah, gotcha. I don’t think it would be that hard to change to new connectors. Now that laws are coming in, they can simply update those laws when it’s time for a new standard. USB C still has many years of headroom left, and the benefits of standardising connectors vastly outweigh the problems (at least in my opinion).

Sure, and I’m going to guess they probably did that here. I doubt this is going to cause that much frustration, it’s still a big red button that’s easy to see.

Huh?

And so no buttons should ever be allowed to move? That would be insane.
