@stroughtonsmith Help me out here. iOS 1.0 didn't have any way to select text, right? Didn't that come later? So who are these idiots who say 1.0 couldn't copy/paste when text couldn't be selected from the start?

@stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker 2/2 Can either off you get me a screenshot of the Test Flight description? It won't do it to an Android tablet.

Apple Wearables revenue was down 10% year over year in the quarter when they launched Vision Pro and nobody seemed to notice or care 😅

@stroughtonsmith Is AVP classed as wearable or computer?

@stroughtonsmith M1 MacBook Air

  1. FaceID? If so, can opt-out to PIN/password?
  2. Shortcuts like iOS?
  3. Siri like iOS?

FFS. Wouldn't I need to pay to become a Mac/iOS dev? And even if not, then would need an iPhone AND Mac! FML-cubed!

@stroughtonsmith I miss my SE. Would it be insane to get it again -- gen 1 -- if it has 128GB of storage and is in mint condition? @WarnerCrocker

@stroughtonsmith ? Wikipedia says it can do iOS 15. @WarnerCrocker

@stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker YouTubers still pushing idea of a MacBook SE, Is there such a beast and would it even be worth buying? $699 they say.

@mikecane@mas.to avatar

@stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker Hmph. Thanks. Is there a March event or not?

Did you hear Google can't put Gemini Nano in their phone? Apple will have the field to themselves with Siri Plus.

Only other devices are Humane AI Pin (Open AI and web) and Rabbit r1 (Perplexity). Tab and Rewind aren't AI retrieval.

@stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker Tell me why you think the Humane AI Pin will fail. I'm not convinced it will.

@stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker I suspect that Apple is going to make their upcoming new Siri a subscription service, like all the other LLMs. Basic Siri will be free but constantly harangue people with, "I'm sorry. That answer is only available via subscription." Don't underestimate Cook's greed. Or they might include say 3 months free to get people addicted and then harvest subscriptions.

And BAM! You're correct about the Pin being a phone accessory. They are on the wrong path.
