Thunderbolt is so cool to me. like. you're telling me this one cable is;
charging my laptop at 90W,
providing a 5k60 video output,
using the 3 USB3 ports on the back of my display as a hub,
receiving video from my display's webcam,
and sending hi-res audio to my display.
tried out my dad's (M1) Touch Bar MacBook Pro earlier just for the lols, and I seriously don't get the gripes y'all have with this thing.
simply put, I love the Touch Bar.
the argument I've heard against it is that there are no fn keys, but have y'all looked in the settings?

I haven't done extensive research on it, and unfortunately I don't care. it's a thunderbolt cable, plugged from my thunderbolt port on my mac, into my thunderbolt port on my studio display. I'll just call it thunderbolt.
so my dad gave me his old 7th gen iPad because it was “too slow and keeps disconnecting from hotspot”
SO ITS MINE NOW
SO UHH HAHAHA THIS IS GONNA BE FUN :33
really strange, my AirPods Pro 2 case has decided to completely forget that it has a U1 chip, kick itself off Find My, and just.. randomly flash and beep?
like it doesn’t even pop up on my phone when i open the case beside it lmaoo

Siri Suggestions are separate from actual Siri, it should be able to do things that every other voice assistant can do. Every time i ask it something it gives me a wrong answer or pulls up something on the web. If i could set google assistant as the default assistant i would.
the new Photos app in iOS 18 is genuinely the worst stock iOS app I've ever used. I'm not even exaggerating. It's literally terrible.
Worst design I've ever seen for a gallery app before.

AND there's another TWO of them on this laptop that can do the same amount of things (so long as the chip is powerful enough) 🤯🤯 how is this stuff POSSIBLE
oh yeah btw don't worry I already set up an appointment tomorrow to replace it for literally $30 lmfao
this is my testimony.
pay for applecare+.
it's worth it.
macbook pro’s viewing angles are INSANELY GOOD for an LCD. i often have to remind myself that this is in fact an LCD panel, it really doesn’t feel like it sometimes..
the way everybody just immediately assumed i’m the biggest apple and iphone simp, when in reality i literally use my pixel more than my iphone 💀💀💀
y’all really replying like i posted rage bait because i made ONE (1) joke this shits crazy 😭😭
then when they do this, everyone would be like "apple is losing all their creativity!!" 😭😭
I fw the names heavy, there's literally no reason for them to stop naming their macOS versions cool names.
they better not EVER fire the crack marketing team.
this is fucking ridiculous. I mean this is like, legitimately unusable. yes I've force restarted multiple times, yes I'm on the latest, stable, non-beta version of iOS.
@ktgmslol
something something odd numbers and prime numbers sound more random to humans than even numbers I thiunk
I barely remember I watched it yesterday 😭

I think someone on Twitter unfollowing you, even if you don’t know them, is a little more painful than someone unfriending you in real life

@JaKaJeeM
that's not even what I asked, thunderbolt and USB can have the same specs i'm not denying that in any way, but I'm saying that I **am** using thunderbolt in this situation, that's kind of impossible to deny here
@LuftkoppTim
eh, fair enough. I tend to look down at my function keys before I use them to prevent mistakes anyways though.
best course of action (imo) would be to make both sides happy and just implement both, the 16 in. Pro has plenty of space for a Touch Bar above the fn keys.
