I’ve been bouncing in my chair for new tech podcasts that aren’t just angry about everything. https://nileane.fr/@nileane/112553298160006824

@matt @ChrisLawley @alexcox So when does Matt force everyone to use a classic Mighty Mouse for a week? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Mighty_Mouse

This looks pretty awesome! Wish I had the budget for this great backpack - I think @christianselig this is what you were looking for?

Is it just me or is the Music app on the Mac very un-Mac like? The window size can't get very small and seems like a huge downgrade from the iTunes app we had before? Am I missing something why can't I make the window size of that app something fairly small?

@viticci Did someone see the MacPad and decide to create this wild device? - https://www.uploadvr.com/spacetop-g1-screenless-laptop-ar-glasses/

I would love a Mac Shortcut that turns keyboard backlight brightness to zero percent when you log off and back to 100 percent when you login - is this possible?

About by PCalc for visionOS is now available!

Perhaps the most pointless app on Vision Pro, but still quite fun to play with. This is a complete remake of the original PCalc About screen in VR. It's basically me experimenting with what's possible today with RealityKit, over-engineering things as usual, and then for some inexplicable reason actually shipping it. I hope you enjoy it!

https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/about-by-pcalc/id1613982997?platform=vision

Hundreds of objects swirl around a PCalc icon.
A lovely view of the public transport options in the PCalc About screen.
A distant dragon watches over the city.

@jamesthomson Was using the name About by - a brilliant way to bring Pcalc to page 1 on visionOS?

@jamesthomson Haha yes still alpha sorted lol - freaking love what you did with this app need to spend some more time digging into it

MacPad M1 Air edition has been setup!! $300 for a MacBook Air M1 with a busted screen but pristine computer body - damn @viticci this is pretty wonderful - can’t wait to start exploring the ways I can integrate macOS with the iPad and Apple Vision Pro - this is my first Mac since my 2011 11” MacBook Air that still happily runs High Sierra - feels very sturdy maybe the thicker wedge end is a feature for using it with the old M1 XDR iPad Pro - supporting more weight

For Moretex subscribers, Grey and I are watching and reviewing each of the Lord of the Rings movies.

This is my first time seeing these movies!

There are two special episodes available so far.

As well as these specials, you get ad-free longer episodes of Cortex.

@imyke the most important question here … the vastly superior extended editions or the less great theatrical cuts?

How did I only just now discover the amazing ability in OmniFocus for visionOS to scan documents with a nearby iOS device!!! It even showed my my 2017 10.5” iPad Pro - you just select whatever device you want to use and it launches the camera app from a locked device state into a special scanning mode and sends those scans directly over to OmniFocus for visionOS - pure magic how well this works - so cool!!! @OmniFocus @kcase

tchaten,
@tchaten@mastodon.world avatar

@nighthawk @OmniFocus @kcase I’m guessing it is using the same API or similar as continuity camera - was cool to see that API available to visionOS - haven’t seen other visionOS apps do that yet, but I may be missing some examples of other apps that take advantage of this

@agiletortoise Are there any special toggles needed to enable an iOS app to be installable via TestFlight on visionOS? Have a few apps that are enabled for visionOS, but only in the App Store version and not allowed to install via TestFlight.

We finally have the release date for the Boy and the Heron! June 25th digitally and July 9th on BluRay! Still very far off, but glad to have a date!! Can’t believe how long the lead time has been on this. Reminds me of the old times that truly incentivized you to go to the movie theaters.

@matt One of my favorites!!! I get very teary most times watching this one - amazing John Williams soundtrack too!! Amazing to hear him play with jazz and saxophones the way he does. So glad it clicked with you too!

@matt you were right - incredible time with this one - maybe my first Japanese Godzilla movie embarrassingly

@matt Very weird after all the Monarch movies to have Godzilla not be the savior of mankind from the other monsters lol
