iPhone apparently shocked for the umpteenth time that, yes, I’d quite like the screenshots I just took for an article to sync to iCloud right now, rather than at some random point in the future when it decides it’s got enough battery charge to do so. (68% is apparently not enough. Although when it has 100%, that’s never enough either.)

Would pay actual money for a Settings override for this.

@craiggrannell maybe a shortcut to force it to sync but I’m sure that’s not exposed as a toggle.

Well, I finally played Balatro and it’s absolutely as delightful as I’d been told. Also run on the Mac and is coming to iOS and Android next.

@matt will be an excellent fit on mobile! I just discovered the Steam Deck version has touch controls already. So smooth.

How much storage are people using on their Mac? 💻

I’ve outgrown 256 & 512 GB & feel I need at least 1 TB with my current usage. I don’t carry external SSD’s and prefer to keep all my files/photos on my device.

@BasicAppleGuy I went for 4TB when I upgraded in November. Using 1.8 at the moment but wanted legroom for future expansion. Photo Library of 150K photos takes up 700GB on its own. Don’t want to put stuff on external drives, they just get lost.

@andycarolan @BasicAppleGuy heh. Apologies if there’s some kind of weird association in current use. It just looked like candy!

Today's the day to really stress test that date and time code.

@jamesthomson I just fixed a bug in code for an internal program. solely for my use, which won’t now be tested again for another 4 years. Should I even have bothered? Of course I should…

Will I be using it in 4 years? Doubtful!

Apple Music has a new “Heavy Rotation” personalized mix

@jamesthomson @nileane mine will just feature “Music for Animals" by Nils Frahm, as that is my current background track for everything.

Fiddling around with throwing virtual cards into a heap with mostly unsatisfactory results. Looking for inspiration from @zimpenfish

CTD,
@CTD@mastodon.social avatar

@zimpenfish I was hoping for a "random” scattering of cards that minimised empty space and with minimal overlap that didn’t look too regular. But have been too lazy so far to do anything other than randomly position them

CTD,
@CTD@mastodon.social avatar

@zimpenfish even with a simple Poisson Disk Sampling it comes out a bit better. Can start tweaking layers.

@llamasoft_ox @zimpenfish oh no. I will have to give it priority! It is actually my favourite card!

CTD,
@CTD@mastodon.social avatar

@llamasoft_ox @zimpenfish Musk Ox priority! It’s actually shuffling 3 copies of each card into the stack so it’s likely to end up with odd repeats. The RNG is a bit rubbish

Seems like Vision Pro production is keeping up with demand. I just checked and I could walk in and get a 256GB unit from 7 of the 8 closest Apple Stores around me.

CTD,
@CTD@mastodon.social avatar

@matt but why do you need 8 of them? Do you have multiple ocular clusters?

🙂

I remembered this wallpaper I saved around the time the iPod 3 was out. Figured I would try to make a recreation of it for modern iPhones. I can’t guarantee that it will align properly on all iPhones but it should work on at least all the 6.1 inch models.

Feel free to download and share! Link to post is appreciated. :)

@JTostitos I used to have a nice blueprint style wallpaper for the iPhone with little cutouts for each icon. It was great. Was that your work?

Tell me Granddad, what were music players like in the olden days?

Actually my grandson has a fabulous music player by Yoto that he adores. It’s really robust and easy to add your own tracks to. Would have been total science fiction when I was 2 years old!

@andycarolan it does work if plugged into power but the battery no longer works…
