Actually, I believe the only time you need your phone connected to the server PC is to install the actual AltStore app. After that, as long as you and the PC are on the same Wifi network, you can install apps untethered.

And that’s the main problem I have with YouTube music. An artist station pulls in covers, and really obscure stuff. I don’t have a choice to just say - shuffle everything just by this artist.

Exactly. This just doesn’t seem practical. I assume there will be no touch sensitivity on the sides, because if there was, there would be false positives constantly. I’ll file this under “Just because we can, doesn’t mean we should.”

The crew of a torpedoed hospital ship takes refuge aboard an abandoned German minesweeper harboring a cargo of mummified vampires in the first trailer for Blood Vessel.

Bravo.

Because the market for the switch lite doesn’t need a dock or joycons.

Thank goodness! I was so tired of having to ... leave my kitchen appliances plugged in so they’re ready to use? What’s this for again? Oh, right. A unified power source to save cords that aren’t in the way, that I won’t be able to get to to fix without tearing apart my counter. Makes sense. Progress!

This whole debate is so tiring. Let’s not pretend that most people in power care about your 2nd amendment rights. There is BIG money in guns. There is BIG money in oil. Full stop. This is what drives legislation or lack of legislation.

Jeez, I wish everyone around here would grow up. It sounds like we’re getting a good package. No need to go nuts.

If you can stand there, and look at that landscape, and say “tear it down for money,” fuck you.

I don’t think that would be a problem for most people who use cases. They’re used to adding quite a bit of thickness to the device. The camera bump is only a millimeter or so. This is more about design than function. The fact that you can’t lay it flat on a surface is stupid, and the aesthetics of that eye test

This is ugly. It’s so ugly that you most definitely have to put a case on this just to create balance. It feels very unlike Apple design to do something like this. Would have worked a lot better if they just made the damn thing as thick as the cameras needed to be.

Nope.

“he only made a Twitter account to respond to Blackley’s search, and so is sure to find things are all downhill from here.”

Jeff Goldblum is a goddamn national treasure.

I’ve got a note 7 that’s burning a hole in my pocket if you want it.

Awake, an upcoming Netflix sci-fi thriller from Mark Raso in which “a sudden global event wipes out all electronics and takes away humankind’s ability to sleep.”

I would love an Apple II classic. Wolfenstein, Choplifter, etc...

Theorizing a massive EMP from somewhere/something that wiped out the ability for computers to communicate with each-other - people would revert back to the way things were done before the Internet. Landlines would make a resurgence, and life would resume.

Perhaps someone can explain this better, but why can’t phones just force horizontal video no matter what the orientation? Aren’t the sensors mostly square anyway, so depending on the orientation it would just crop differently?
