@stroughtonsmith but seriously though! I’m a bit puzzled on why Apple thinks, for years, this is the way to go.

@stroughtonsmith Yeah, srsly.

I won't be upgrading my 2018 model until it breaks I guess. Hope I have everything backed up when that happens, because who the hell knows without a filesystem.

@stroughtonsmith maybe the virtualization story waits for WWDC next month 🙏

I guess we can start the 18 month clock now on the next iPad updates. See you in 2026

@stroughtonsmith iPad Mini later this year? Or doesn't that count?

stroughtonsmith, 15 days ago

@mikecane doesn't count; doesn't move anything about iPad forward, just makes a nice smaller one

@stroughtonsmith What if it gets M4? Zoom zoom zoom.

stroughtonsmith, 15 days ago

@mikecane the mini doesn't even get Stage Manager. It's not the full iPad experience

@stroughtonsmith but, Steve, those incredible use cases are only possible with the M4 chip. Duh!
