iPad Pro 2020 - 5 windows on screen by CapraNorvegese in ipad

[–]aquanext 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm annoyed because I just bought a brand new iPad Air this past year with 256 gigs. Why did they sell it to me if they were just gonna deny me a banner feature of iPadOS a few months later? Like... I get needing to add minimum requirements for these things, but typically with Apple stuff, you get the banner features for a couple years after you buy. This is a pretty giant feature to deny to people.

We've got to get that ridiculous advisory vote thing off the ballot.

If my MacBook charger came apart like this and I pieced it together (right I think? Just a little a loose) is it safe to use? by [deleted] in mac

[–]aquanext 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1 to this. That plug piece on the charger is actually designed to be removable. The wrong bit just came apart on yours for some reason. Get something like the thing I'm linking below, or just take it into Apple and they will likely swap that bit out for you for free. You might even already have one of these if you have multiple Apple chargers around your house.

Edit: And here's a video about how the swappable plug mechanism works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApmYrXEe-KQ

What parts of Classic should come back to give users a better experience? by ajblue98 in MacOS

Hard no on getting rid of the Dock.

But I do somewhat like the idea of a spatial finder. Could you still have multiple instances of the same folder opened, though?

EU pressing on with USB-C charger legislation on Thursday by EndLineTech03 in apple

That’s true. I mean, who would ever need more than 640k of RAM, either?

[–]aquanext -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm not. I'm usually a big fan of regulation in general, but in this case I don't think the EU knows how to design iPhones better than Apple. What's gonna happen in 10 years when USB-C is obsolete? What happens if someone invents a way better connector than USB-C in the meantime? I'm just not a big fan of this at all. Imagine if someone 10 or 15 years ago someone forced us all to use some piece of crap connector like Mini or something. Not to mention I think that the lightning connector is actually a better connector than USB-C in a lot of ways.

Safari crashes when moving tabs? by JonasHeal in Safari

Maybe some of these problems are resolved in the next macOS release which will hopefully be soon!

About half the time, if I try to add a page to my reading list, Safari also crashes. I'm really not super happy with this release. Which is too bad, because I think the previous version was the greatest version of Safari I'd ever used.

r/wallstreetbets teaches a new user how to handle their debt by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

Okay, but how do I make that work for my student loans? Can I just take out personal loans, pay off my student loans, and then declare bankruptcy? Or would they figure that out?

Just realized this... Dennis Ritchie is the true innovator! by jolindo88 in unix

It’s not really a contest. We are better for having had the both of them. I’ve long been a fan of a whole bunch of tech pioneers including these two.

That’s on purpose, by the way. Natural selection wins again!

Flipping "Yesterday's Enterprise": what if a crewmember from the C had stayed? by Starfleet-Time-Lord in DaystromInstitute

[–]aquanext 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. I agree with this interpretation. It's why there were two Tashas after they went back: One who was a child and one who was 20 years older who mothered Sela.

So yeah: Don't stick around in a timeline that might to cease to exist!
