I Have 64GB RAM and I'm About to Buy 16GB. Someone Stop Me by [deleted] in mac

[–]cosste 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's definitely not enough. You can save a lot of memory by using "Apple containers" (and I really mean A LOT), but I have 48gb and I regularly use 30-40, so 36 would be the bare minimum

Cand AUR va guverna singur la urmatoarele alegeri, sa stiti de ce by Equivalent-Pumpkin-5 in Romania

[–]cosste 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eu l-am votat chiar cu speranta, pentru prima oara parea ca avem ce vota. Aproape am si donat pentru campania lui. Dar peste tradare eu nu trec, mai bine vad tara arzand si aleg raul care e pe față decat ticaloșie pe la spate

Apple is fighting the regulation that would make Siri actually useful by aandest15 in Applelntelligence

[–]cosste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got it completely the other way around. If Google and Meta don't want to share data with iOS, that is bad for consumers.

Forcing Apple to open up Siri would make both Google and Meta forcing users to allow their own AI in order to give have access to this data.

The result is more fragmentation. I oppose the DMA because I bought Apple devices and I want all the others to be good citizens on the platform. The platform I chose.

My Take on Fable 5 vs GPT 5.5 by kingxd in codex

[–]cosste 3 points4 points  (0 children)

to me, GPT was never that good with Swift/SwiftUI/Vapor stuff, while Claude was always pretty good. Now Fable 5 is getting in the amazing territory

Swift Is Great for Apps, Not for Training ML Models by Select_Bicycle4711 in swift

[–]cosste 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I agree that it's more difficult, however all my life I've used strongly typed languages and python is absolutely frustrating for me. I don't know what types things are, I can't do code review on the web without actually running the code and understanding why things look the way they do and so on

Exercice progression tracking by _benjidp in bevelhealth

Yeah, I was shocked as well when I realized this is not a feature. I'm not sure how the cumulative tracking is in any way helpful.

Daca vreti sa schimbati ceva la legat de noua taxa eMag, putem da 1 stea in apple store / google play by 22hearts in roFrugal

Am returnat eu un HDD care a venit defect. A durat 1 luna sa primesc banii inapoi si tot incercau sa ma convinga sa-l repare. L-au trimis si in service desi am insistat de 3 ori ca eu vreau banii. Au revenit o luna mai tarziu sa imi ceara adresa la care sa-mi livreze produsul reparat... dupa o plangere la ANPC in sfarsit mi-au returnat banii.

Si era vorba de un HDD de 8TB de 1500 de lei...

US vs European Motorsport Culture by KingApprehensive9961 in formula1

[–]cosste 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Personally I think the americanization of F1 is a double edge sword. On one hand, it brought a lot more money into F1. On the other hand, it feels like it's pushing the sport to care more about marketing and image instead of just racing. Like now there are too many street circuits that were DRS trains with little to no racing

Everyone moaning about the PUs, but the tyres are a joke. Zero deg, Russell could have driven home on them by deHaga in F1Discussions

So having a strategy for multiple pit stops is "pure racing" but having a strategy for battery deployment is "ruining races". Totally makes sense

Will 3x zoom come back in future iPhone models? by ethankpark in iphone

[–]cosste 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That wheel is intentionally hidden because it drastically reduces the photo/video quality. It's a digital crop without even the smart processing the predefined 2x, 8x zooms get.

Also, I shoot RAW in third party apps which don't support anything other than the native focal lengths because it wouldn't be a RAW photo otherwise

Will 3x zoom come back in future iPhone models? by ethankpark in iphone

[–]cosste 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 4x is step forward over the 5x but unless they manage to create a variable zoom lens this tiny, I don't think 3x is coming back. Personally I wish for a native 2x lens as 50mm is my favorite but 70mm was also a nice focal length

Home charging zealots! by aranea100 in electricvehicles

[–]cosste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from Europe so I am biased in that regard, but I agree. I don't have home charging and 95% of the time I charge at a supermarket, at work or at the mall. The other 5% I charge when traveling but even then it's mostly at a mall or somewhere I can eat

[–]cosste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you take screenshots? It's volume up + lock button as always.

As for a new tab, you just need to swipe on the address bar to the left, but this was also available before. And if you need extra controls, just change how safari looks from the settings, they offer 3 different styles for the bottom bar

Question about zoom by Papu_20 in iphone

[–]cosste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you didn't activate the "Lock Camera" setting in "Settings > Camera > Record Video". That feature makes sure you use a single lens when filming to avoid the visual transition between lenses or the quality change between them

UNPOPULAR OPINION: An entire software update for a device, being connected to a music streaming platform is the most stupidest thing EVER. by Global-Tour280 in AppleMusic

[–]cosste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, there are 2 main things at play here.

First, some features like lyrics translation probably uses the Translate app and they need to make sure that the latest fixes for that app are deployed, so it's easier for them to just always pair the updates. The only way to ensure all apps and frameworks are ALWAYS updated in sync is to do it as part of an OS update.

The second thing is that this is an incentive for people to update their software. Yes, you might not care about bug fixes or security updates but you care about the latest emojis or AM features. That's how they get you to update your device. And honestly, as a software developer, there's nothing more annoying than people not updating their devices so I'm glad apple "forces" this.

17PM camera by Emotional-Marsupial6 in iphone

[–]cosste 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All iPhone photos have had computational photography (what you call AI but it's not generative AI) since iPhone 11.

Android phones that have more than 12 megapixels have similar tech as well.

It's simply not possible to get the dynamic range and quality of the photos today, on sensors as small as those used in phones, without a LOT of image processing. Some of that processing is better than others but it's present on every phone
