Tiling windows on a mac? Thought I'd never see the day.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Clipboard history next please. I mean I can keep using an app for it but it'd be nice if it was just a thing.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Even if it were just a thing, Apples implementation would be limited and inflexible, so I'd probably use an app anyway.

Wonder if it will be enough to replace Rectangle if all I use is fullscreen/halves/quarters?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The window tiling and new continuity features like iPhone Mirroring and drag and drop look useful.

Some of the AI stuff seems to be have limited geographic availability.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

None of the AI stuff is even available yet

Background replacement in FaceTime video? What an age we live in!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It seems it’s available for any input from the camera, not just FaceTime. The selection they showed was the menu bar camera usage indicator.

I’m gonna install this in a VM and see how the new features work

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is there an easy way to install in a VM?

The URL to the ipsw can be found in this commit to virtualbuddy, likely useable with UTM today, and virtualbuddy whenever it gets its next release.

Downloadable topo maps for a Mac? How are you supposed to view them while hiking? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

You don’t carry a laptop around while you’re hiking?

awareness of your personal context

Is this just a fancy way of saying "we track everything you do"?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

No. They don’t track anything. It’s all on-device.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, the device tracks everything.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok…and? If it doesn’t send it to Apple then they’re not tracking anything. Stop talking nonsense.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Huh, that must be why they made a big show about the data your device sends to their AI cloud is not stored or shared.
