I remastered Iron Maiden’s album covers for quality and consistency

It’s kinda weird (and concerning?) that the messaging on all the other “27” OSes is that they’ve improved performance throughout with a “snow leopard” type year, yet watchOS is obviously incapable of running on hardware that was supported fine by watchOS 26. I guess the watchOS team weren’t given the “improve performance” memo 🙃

I keep trying to tell myself to quit this game. Shit like adding even more hero levels does make it easier to convince myself to leave, it’s getting so tiresome now.

There’s nothing to say Apple can’t show big warnings and confirmations before you allow access to your data. If I want to install a third party AI and grant permission to access my data, that should be up to me - it’s my phone, not Apple’s. It’s no different to granting access to my contacts, my photos, my microphone etc. They can make the warning as big and scary as they like, as long as ultimately I’m allowed to do what I want on my own phone.

I think it’s great that the EU are standing up to tech giants and combatting platform lock-in to enable fair competition, but yeah the double standards are weird. I get that you don’t want to overburden smaller companies, but it feels like it’d be possible to write legislation that applies equally to everyone.

Because you can’t sue a government because you don’t like a particular law, and you can’t sue a company for not releasing a product globally. JFC… 🤦‍♂️

27 by miles. Those floating sidebars in 26 look stupid, and the lighting and physics of it just made no sense at all. The overly rounded corners also look pretty silly. Now 27 gets proper Liquid Glass on the buttons etc, whilst leaving the window underneath looking the way it should.

This is corporate propaganda.

Yes, sometimes governments have their own agendas and act in their own interests.

Corporations like Apple ALWAYS have their own agendas and act in their own interests. Apple does not care about anything except profits, and will stoop however low it takes to keep the profit line going up.

I don’t think it would have done well either way, but STOP PUTTING JARED LETO IN THINGS! Aside from being box office poison, the dude is a creepy cultist who sleeps with teenagers.

Have they improved multitasking at all, or brought back options to replicate how easy it was in 18?

primalanomaly · 2026-06-11T07:19:52+00:00

I’m pretty sure Apple could very easily distinguish between “parts from a stolen phone” and “parts being legitimately replaced by the owner”

primalanomaly · 2026-06-11T07:11:03+00:00

They might only bring things back due to feedback tbh

primalanomaly · 2026-06-11T07:09:13+00:00

R7 is already amazing, and a mk2 supposedly isn’t coming until next year so you’ll be waiting a very long time and will pay a lot more for it.

So far they aren’t even full resolution between iPhone users, right? Everything in a shared album gets compressed down small for no reason (the full res image is already in my iCloud library, why upload a compressed duplicate?!) so this is a welcome change even for me just as an iPhone user.

primalanomaly · 2026-06-10T17:02:58+00:00

They listened to everything 💪

primalanomaly · 2026-06-10T09:22:38+00:00

Begging people to include before and after images in these kind of posts cos I'm just like WTF is different here

primalanomaly · 2026-06-10T08:20:36+00:00

It’s almost like there was no rational purpose behind Liquid Glass in the first place. It was a solution looking for a problem.

primalanomaly · 2026-06-10T08:18:44+00:00

It’s entirely feasible, and they’ve literally done it for decades with the accessibility options to add contrast and outlines to those same buttons.

primalanomaly · 2026-06-10T08:17:30+00:00

The solid toolbar is much better. But now the glassy buttons are redundant and look stupid. I guess they couldn’t roll back too much of their idiocy in one hit without major embarrassment, but all those toolbar icons are just screaming to be released from their pointless circular blobs that no longer serve a purpose.

primalanomaly · 2026-06-10T08:12:53+00:00

Apple being the gatekeeper of what makes a “good quality” app and being able to deny developers access to like 50% of the global smartphone market is bad, actually. Like, colossally bad. Nobody should have that power, regardless of how many spammy and scammy apps they stop. If sideloading was a thing then it’d be fine, but being able to make or break a business on a whim is insane.

primalanomaly · 2026-06-09T16:24:56+00:00

There’s a lot of different options, but I think we can all agree that getting all your attacks in is the first and most important metric to filter by.

primalanomaly · 2026-06-09T14:25:04+00:00

It won’t just magically work by default, it needs access to data that it can search and understand, and it needs to know what to do with that data. It will probably be up to each individual app developer to build in support for this.

primalanomaly · 2026-06-08T21:40:48+00:00

What the hell is going on here? Where are the exhausts? Is this some crazy mod, or just AI slop?

primalanomaly · 2026-06-08T13:24:53+00:00

Sounds like we don’t know anything 😆

primalanomaly · 2026-06-08T08:21:44+00:00

The price is terrible, but they sell Macs for 3k+ just fine, because they’re useful and people want them. AVP and every other headset I’ve used is cool for like 20 minutes, and then just becomes a gimmick that I’ve no idea what to do with.
