New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

And the new ones are over a hundred dollars for a fucking keyboard.

And you have to charge them.

And I know there's going to be an update that will cheerfully say to me afterwards, "The device connected to the USB port cannot be recognized..."

thanks, mh - those are terrible. Maybe made on iOS 11 alpha?

LUCKILY, I have a brand new one of those things on the yet to be used desk in my bedroom! And I’m typing on one to all of you beautiful people right now. But they’re being replaced.

Yeah, I set aside the one that came with my current imac when I got it 3-4 years ago and forgot about it until a couple of weeks ago. Glad I've got a spare.

Given the lack of ports on anything Mac today I'm okay with a wireless keyboard. I used one of the Logitech ones for a long time.

Stop it!

I've got a Logitech at work, but it doesn't have the little green light in the caps key, which I miss much more than I would.

Than I thought I would... Too busy looking at markers' keyboard while typing that.

ugh $129, bullshit. i loved the wired one, but my newest iMac came by default with the short, number pad-less bt version

Fun part about spending tons of money on something is it leads you to need to spend tons more money on other things. Now also looking at an OWC 4 bay thunderbolt enclosure. Fun times.

I'm thinking about getting an external Thunderbolt GPU thingy :(

Is there a specific date for Amazon on AppleTV?

Not yet.

Hoping this increases the possibility that eventually Apple Music will be integrated with the Echo.

so not gonna happen

Hush your mouth

is it time to upgrade my macbook pro yet? it's still running fine (Mid 2012 model) and i've been holding out for a must have pro upgrade.

I'd wait a year. Seems like Apple got a wake-up call on pro stuff after the last MBP.

I kinda hate my new MBP. does nothing better than my 2012 and has a bunch of annoyances that I didn't have before.

sounds like what people need is BIG IPAD instead

Jeff, I’m an Apple Music subscriber and we have an Echo in the kitchen here. Is there any way to the audio from, like, my phone to the Echo now? Bluetooth? Anything? Probably not?

Yeah you can do it with Bluetooth, it's just not as easy as saying Alexa play this from Apple Music. I subscribe to amazon music unlimited too, but it doesn't have everything I want and the app UI is terrible.

Ah, thanks. Better than nothing, I guess!

Yow!

I haven't seen the demo, but Affinity's osx software is pretty nice.

It actually looked great on iOS, will have to look at the workflow with files in 11.

what is the app with the series of color blobs at the top of their iPad marketing page?

planet of the apps has gone up on apple music if anyone cares

why is the BIG IPAD PRO not offered in rose gold but the SMALL IPAD PRO offered?

PISS TAPE

what is the app with the series of color blobs at the top of their iPad marketing page?

Tried to find this out and failed

Pals, what do you use for downloading YouTube videos? Option to d/l in full quality would be nice.

Is there a gold standard?

We need to get back to the rose gold standard

youtube-dl on the command line should be tolerably easy to use

An interesting read

Ned, how did I not know about this book??? Thanking u.

Silby: thanks dude!

So, the Dropbox iOS app can now edit text files according to the release notes!

Also, I have that iPhone book coming in tomorrow. :-)

Forstall’s been out & about a bit too. Computer History Museum(?) and WSJ, I think. Dunno if elsewhere too.

Fadell on that Wired magazine cover, baby

is there anything more boring than wired magazine in 2017 though

Thanks for the heads up re: Fadell/Wired.

(I totes bought the Apple Park issue btw and might now get this one too. Hehe.)

Actually, I think that might be an old issue of Wired UK? Hm.

Pulled the trigger on a Kaby Lake MBP 15", LG 4K monitor, and $pent my way into USB-C. Easily converted to the new keyboard and am justifying all the expense because my eyes are so much more happier now with the new monitor.

I've had my new imac i7 27" 512 ssd beast sitting here to my left as I've been reinstalling all software and not pulling the trigger on switching over until I finish a few projects on my current computer (2008 mac pro) while being a bit terrified of the daunting task of moving iTunes and Lightroom catalogs over and maintaining the libraries/catalogs. It looks nice but haven't used it yet! Got the numeric version of the keyboard, I like it.

The one they just stopped selling?

(The keyboard.)
