I think my biggest Vision Pro quality of life feature would be that when using the Mac Virtual Display thingy the audio should come through my headset not my Mac's speakers

Is it a visionOS bug or a me bug that if you disable a button in a navigation bar it gains a weird hover state? If me, how do you fix it?

SwiftUI noob question: I understand why my ViewModel is being initialized twice, but why is it not being deinitialized?

It's created, then a second later when appState.show is changed, the view is recomputed, and view, and its ViewModel, are created anew. Cool! But why is the old one not deinitialized? What's holding onto it?

iPhone 15 Pro’s been my best battery performer by a mile, damn. All MagSafe charging too pretty much

christianselig, 5 days ago to random

Dumb question, but if I bought one of those "MagSafe stickers" on Amazon, that are traditionally used to give an Android phone MagSafe-like-stickiness, could I instead use it in reverse, and stick it to a non-MagSafe accessory so it would stick to my iPhone?

For instance, say I want to stick it to a banana so the banana magnets to my phone

Update on long USB-C cable journey: bought this 15-foot one per recommendations and it's been awesome, not too thick, charges great (only loses 3W versus a 3 ft cable when charging at 100W)

Does launching a build with the debugger attached on Vision Pro take forever for anyone else? It's near instant on the simulator, but even after the data is transferred to the device, the actual launch screen hangs out for like 10 seconds (so I don't think dev strap would help?)

After drawing on my iPad screen for years and getting jittery lines, this video and the fact it was my screen protector blew my mind. Is there a screen protector that doesn't do this? And isn't matte, because despite drawing nice those destroy the colors

The wildest bag someone recommended from this post is the TomToc Navigator. It's 40L, but only weighs 2.8 lb, has water bottle holders, compression straps, great laptop/iPad compartment, and one massive clamshell bucket for clothes. And it's only $80, which concerningly cheap

If they used X-Pac or a nicer material it could be even lighter and more durable, add in stowable straps, would be an absolute slam dunk

Choosing a travel backpack is really hard, and I still haven't found one I love, so mostly for my own reference I wrote a long post with thoughts on pretty much every travel backpack out there https://christianselig.com/2024/04/choosing-a-backpack-is-hard/

If you have other recommendations gimme

Any recommendations for USB-C to C charging cables over 10 feet/3 meters long? USB 2.0 speeds are fine, no video transmission needed, just want 100W of power delivery and ideally not as thick as a garden hose

Learning some basic 3D modeling has been such a fun hobby. Needed something to hold tennis balls since mine came in a cardboard box, so I quickly put together something fun 😊 https://makerworld.com/en/models/445402

Does anyone else have a sassy HomePod and a well-behaved HomePod? One of them 75% of the time is like "Ummm, who is speaking??" and the other is like "Done, I gotchu Christian"

If you have a Meta Quest 3, I made a free, 3D printable sibling to my Vision Pro stand! https://christianselig.com/2024/04/meta-quest-3-stand/

Playing around with a Meta Quest 3 version of my Vision Pro stand, and I want a flourish on top to differentiate them, but I can't decide if I prefer the inset or raised sensors. What do you think?
