New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

yeah, I guess I am used to the const battleground and the syntactic sugar seemed nice

oh god, Plan 9... I never used that directly, but played around with the embedded environment that Lucent later released that was inspired by it

brb writing source code emojifier

markers, given the presence of Retina iMac code in yosemite

IYO when do you think a retina imac will be released

retina.... iMac?

:0

finally some lust object action up in this mo

I realized the other day that in my 20s I would buy a new MBP every two years and now I'm still using one from 2010 :/

hey guys.... Aperture 4

haha, just kidding, thought I'd chum the waters a little

stet otm

same i just turned in my 2010 lappy a few months ago

can't imagine going back to an iMac and being stuck at my desk

i can just never get used to the flatness of laptop keyboards

think of it as a retina display with a free computer in it

whats a good third party hirez display

monitor even

the ones on this list
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht6008

I think the Sharp one is the one Apple sells and it supports 60Hz

cool just buy one for me

uh maybe idk http://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2014/06/05/apple-to-abandon-headphone-jack-suddenly-beats-deal-makes-sense

yeah, idk, I think they'll still have a headphone jack but this is a cool setup for selling high quality itunes audio

removing the jack wld save space but also make people mad i cld see them doing it

im sure theyd make an adaptor

That would be a new low for Apple. So yeah, I could see them doing it.

man this would be so weird and stupid

I've been using bluetooth headphones recently. But wow, my battery drains fast with BT on.

remember the original iPhone headphone jack and how it couldn't accept regular headphones?

I figured out the reason

Headphone jack: 3.5mm in diameter
Lightning connector: 2.46 mm in height

They could make their phones thinner by 1mm

xp yeah, that was really stupid. if they're gonna do this they should just include the headphone adapter with the phone

The old 30-pin connector was also capable of outputting a digital audio signal iirc

Moving the DAC conversion to outside the iPhone could make sense, much less noisy envirionment

But the iPhone already has really great DAC circuitry imo

And it'd be required if they eliminated the headphone jack

Forcing every headphone mftr to sell both a 3.5mm- and Lightning-terminated jack of each of their headphones would be a cruel and sadistic and gleeful move by Apple

An adapter would be pretty shit.

they will sell little appleDACs that people will collect like tt cartridges. check out my ortofon blue appleDAC.

The only way that could be cool is if iPhones/iPads come with an adapter that has a cable with the standard controls on it, with a 3.5mm headphone jack embedded in it. But even then - How do you charge and listen at the same time?

you plug your kinetic charger vest output into your headphones. you are a more perfect human this way.

man can they really be big enough assholes to do this? Newsflash my loyalty to Grado is greater than my loyalty to Apple.

fwiw with the lightning connector and the last OS, iPhones and iPads became able to use external USB sound cards. So if you have a headphone amplifier at your work desk or whatever that acts as a USB sound card, it works with that (once you use the lightning->usb adapter, that is)

pretty cool imo

Yeah, but leave the regular jack alone.

I concur

take away the regular jack. make the lightning bolt fiber optic.

also add LIDAR to the iPhone already it's 2014

or at least add a visible laser for my cat

haha this will be enough to push me into getting a shitty flip phone and a sandisk mp3 player. i'm too poor for this bullshit.

mh I didn't know that! Thanks.

Xpost I already made that switch to the forty buck sandisk player just last month when my iPod 160 corrupted itself for the billionth time. This thing is great, u can replace the firmware with rockbox in like 3 minutes and have a bunch of micro sd sub-libraries in your wallet. Plays any type of file you throw at it too.

will it play my old lode runner saved game files?

Man given some of the new view APIs in iOS 8 there is 100% likelihood of a big iPhone next up

If they don't put out a 5s sized version of the 6 with feature parity with whatever phabletesque monstrosity the market is forcing them to put out I will be cheesed off.

otm, iphone 5 is perfect size. read something that said bigass phones are favored by people who don't want to buy both a tablet & a phone & I thought c'mon we're talking about APPLE customers here

big ass phones are especially popular with people for whom its their only device

doesnt exactly seem like the apple demo but the world is changing who knows

also like u shd see my dad use his iphone he squints then pokes at it like hes just praying to hit something, its too small for him

he's acting
