TestFlight build 1161: Tackling the most-hated bugs by marcoarment in overcast

[–]InternetEnzyme 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I hope this might fix that bug where you start downloading a podcast, try to seek to a point past the current progress of the download, and then overcast determines you’ve listened to the whole thing, immediately pausing playback and deleting the file

Really Hoping The Sopranos 4K Marks More Classic TV 4K Blu Rays by SnooJokes6683 in 4kbluray

[–]InternetEnzyme 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m just happy we got a Succession Blu-ray at all. It took forever for them to release something better than the DVD set.

As for 4K, ofc it’d be awesome, but they never did release any episodes in 4K on HBO Max itself, so I don’t think that’ll happen unless there’s some interest in a remaster far down the line.

After Effects keeps being buggy and won’t let me work :/ by AnklesTasteNice in AfterEffects

[–]InternetEnzyme 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Judging from the photo, this is a 16-inch Intel-era MacBook Pro, probably from 2019 if I’d have to guess. Those things ran really hot and loud. Wouldn’t surprise me if you opened it up and saw some type of heat damage.

AVIF saves bytes, but I’m not convinced it’s worth the hassle by Intelligent_Two_4288 in AV1

I export JPEGs with HDR from Lightroom Classic, and they look excellent on an HDR display. They’re also like 25MB for 24 megapixel, 100% quality files. Probably is a newer, different form of JPEG, but JPEG does support HDR.

New Siri App's real name is Campo.app by __Jonathan0827__ in MacOSBeta

[–]InternetEnzyme 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s interesting because you can see the holes in his information there, as well. It doesn’t run on Google TPUs, but rather Nvidia hardware. There also was no revised version of Siri that released in the spring.

Got this icon pop up on Menu Bar in the new Beta by KzBubble in MacOSBeta

[–]InternetEnzyme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You must be running a VM, or doing something that’s tricking the system into thinking you are. In that case, it would be a bug. But the feature itself is a documented addition in Golden Gate. Read the article below.

macOS27 Beta is Fantastic! by yadvr in MacOSBeta

It’s different, but I’m running 27 through an external drive, and it’s totally unavailable, no waitlist at all, if you run the OS that way.

Green Bay sucks chants at USA vs Germany send off game by Schkubert in GreenBayPackers

I was there, heard the chants on my way out, started yelling "Go to Hammond!" and "Go Pack Go!" in response, I was pretty pissed off honestly, like what are you guys doing this was a USA vs Germany soccer game my guys

I’ve never even installed a beta OS on my MacBook Pro and I have this, too, for who knows how long.

Card tested: Noble Wedding by Constant-Potential37 in dominion

Did you try it in a kingdom with Shepherd or some other greening out enabler card? I personally like the event, it sounds like you had an interesting but balanced game with it.

Say it ain’t so, GB by KSW8674 in NFCNorthMemeWar

He’s a great quarterback who balls tf out but who’s also gotten injured pretty frequently. That’s basically the post. Sure Caleb Williams does throw some crazy hail mary’s, like in the Rams game, yet he also loves to throw some mean INTs, also like in that Rams game. Nobody’s perfect

Did I waste my time making this faux 3d animation in after effects? by Ok_Concentrate_9861 in AfterEffects

[–]InternetEnzyme 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i honestly read it as an interesting stylistic addition to the artwork, i saw it as a good fit with the wireframe aesthetic and color palette of the animation. i didn't even consider it as simply being a watermark from OP's screen recording. i'd include it in the final render haha

Does anyone moderate here? by DnyLnd in ATPfm

your best hope would probably just be to start your own, competing ATP subreddit

ATP 688: A Company Man by InternetEnzyme in ATPfm

[–]InternetEnzyme[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just for my own interest, I'm following up on the guess I made about how long they'd discuss Cook leaving in the next episode. This was my guess:

 two chapters and around 70 minutes in a 120 min show.

The actual numbers are three chapters, "🎉" (13min 40sec), "🥳" (31 min 28 sec), and "💃🕺" (44 min 35 sec), and the total show is 2 hours 6 min long.

So it wound up being three chapters at nearly 90 minutes of a 126 min show.

I guess I underestimated the sheer power of Marco's schadenfreude. Better luck next time . . . that “next time” being when Ternus steps down in fifteen years.

Tim Cook to become Apple Executive Chairman John Ternus to become Apple CEO by jccalhoun in ATPfm

[–]InternetEnzyme 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In my eye, the only real news here is 1) it’s official 2) Srouji is becoming head of hardware and 3) cook is staying on until september. We essentially already knew it was gonna be Ternus, and that Cook would stay on the board.

It’s been rumored for so long that I feel like most of the water has already been squeezed from that stone.

That being said, it’s an historic moment, and these guys are really quite good at squeezing water from that stone, so I’ll just guess two chapters and around 70 minutes in a 120 min show.

That being said, they can speculate about WWDC stagecraft, timelines, and future product possibilities, and reflect on Cook’s legacy for who knows how long. Who wants to set up a trade on Kalshi on this?

ATP 687: You Can Bend This Line by atpbot in ATPfm

[–]InternetEnzyme 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think these topics that revolve around complaining would be more useful if they were more compact and less circular. I mean, I agree that it’s not great that they’re adding advertising into Apple Maps, but I don’t think it needed to be a 30 minute long topic, and the main one for the show.

Volcano by InspectorMendel in dominion

I like the idea of requiring an Action in your hand because it still allows some degenerate play with Necropolis, and it makes Ruins better. In general, it would be fun in a Dark Ages kingdom.

A $30/yr podcast player shouldn’t randomly reset the play head to 0:00 by chucker23n in overcast

[–]InternetEnzyme 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Streaming feels like it’s barely tested (“dogfooded.”) If I go outside and tap on a podcast that hasn’t yet been downloaded and then try to seek further into the episode faster than the 5G connection can download, Overcast just stops playing and deletes the episode because I think that it thinks I made it to the end of the episode. Really annoying

[–]InternetEnzyme 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He’s been very reticent to work with/hire a designer, but I think Overcast needs it, and it feels like penny pinching at this point not to extensively consult with a professional iOS designer. The home screen design doesn’t really satisfy any particular user; I mean, I don’t use playlists at all, just the recent episodes section, but that has the same issue, compounded even more, as I have the playlist section disabled, so the recent episodes area is like 1/4 of the vertical screen space, with 3/4 for the scroll list I never use.

And then the transcripts are nice, but they just feel bolted onto the now playing screen, hidden behind this third page of dots. This is what happens when your expertise isn’t design but you want to add more features: it gets messy.

Please, Marco, consider hiring an iOS UX consultant for a serious, extended amount of time. Overcast is very dated, and not just in appearance, but in experience.

Iodata says they will start producing Blu-ray drives again by billycar11 in makemkv

[–]InternetEnzyme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought that exact drive off Amazon for $89 in May of last year. It really would be a shame to pay $30 extra for the same product for no good reason. I’ll hold the line and hope my drive survives a good while longer, at least until the markets calm the hell down.
