So uh I accidentally unlocked Final Cut Pro on the iPad Pro (2018), so I took it for a spin. It all just worked, and was perfectly usable? Even the 4K export was fast.

Makes you wonder why officially it only lets you install on an iPad with an M-series chip…

10 years ago today, my friend Paul Thorsen and I released GBA4iOS as seniors in high school. I'll never forget that day, or the many hours we spent together after school building it 💜

To celebrate, I’m excited to announce I’ve revived GBA4iOS for the new era of computing: meet GBA4vOS, the premier Game Boy Advance emulator for visionOS 🥽

crazy engineering: when the Vision Pro has a total system crash, the camera pass through keeps working (!). If it’s extreme, it will prompt that you have 30 seconds before it goes dark.

Insanely impressive.

The "any string of numbers is a phone number" is the biggest anti-feature of Apple OS'es. Its false positive rate must be >90%. How is there still no way to turn it off.

iPad feature I'd love: deep sleep. I find whenever I go a few days or a week between using an iPad, it's often dead or almost dead. An auto-deep sleep mode after 24 hours of non-use would be awesome, even if it took 5 seconds or so to wake back up

Your favorite iPhone Mastodon client (wish I could list more than 4 options in a poll, feel free to reply if your favorite isn't listed, e.g. the official Mastodon client):

Apple's Hypervisor-based virtual machine tech is so good, they could easily put a version of macOS, a la the old Classic environment on Mac OS X, on iPad, with full graphics acceleration, today. If the iPad is never going to bridge that gap itself, maybe this really is the best way to go about it. Sandbox the entirety of macOS into an app so it can never do any damage to the rest of the iPad. It's also a regulatory get-out-of-jail-free card that Apple can hide behind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDZOjIGHka0

So here’s a question I hope to answer today:

Can I figure out how to replace the battery in my iPhone 3GS? 👀

I’ve already removed the old battery as it had swollen so much that the display got pushed out. Now it’s time to insert a new battery.
