Technology sucks http://www.hanselman.com/blog/EverythingsBrokenAndNobodysUps...

Isn't that what dilution of trade dress is?

Still, most apps show some maps inside them, and that cannot be changed.

Good point, I have no idea why don't they just push to iOS devices on my account.

I liked that previous (pre latest magsafe 1) connector because you can plug it any way. Though with magsafe2 it seems that there's a lottery involved, some people on twitter did say that new one is actually stronger

Here's a good write up http://thetechblock.com/the-unibody-iphone. It's for WiFi/GPS.

Developing with 4/4S everyday I just can't help but notice the difference in performance between them. Now, 5 is 2+ times as fast as 4S it seems, so I would argue that for 4 owners it's a pretty good upgrade. For 4S, well, maybe it's not that exciting

> it supports USB3, which is faster than lightning

According to the article, and it's probably true, the limitation is on phone's end, not the port.

>every phone with micro usb works on every device, dock

Lighting is cleary better for docks, it's two side, slide-in design with lock. I hate using micro-usb every time when I charge my kindle.

>The 24-pin, while dated, worked and was just fine

Kinda like VGA ports on notebooks.

>This connector seems very fragile and flimsy and I see it disconnecting all over the place >The 4S has an A5X, I bet the performance benchmarks are negligible between the two

Read the article.

Haha, try PSN.

The world had to know.

Thanks. What's up with Hip in names nowadays?

Back to campfire, I guess.

I wonder how many of regular people know what Smart Stay, S-Beam, ShareShot (well this one kinda deducible),Group Cast, Smart Alert (how smart is it?), Tilt To Zoom (how do you tilt it, where?), Picture In Picture (where, what app, what for?) are.

Although I can understand that the same people can go for a bigger, longer list of features because of just that.

That's the implementation of Jobs' desire to destroy android

It is still pixel perfect. Graphics is not up-sampled because it is still the same Retina tech, and black bars are mere inconvenience, I don't think it will be anywhere near as bad as indeed old 1x graphics in 3gs->4 transition.

As for android team, Google's YouTube app on Google's Nexus 7 device with Google's Android OS, when launched in portrait, goes to landscape _automatically_ and takes button controls like back button from the bottom of the screen to the side. I truly believe that technology is there, but apparently nobody gives a flying fuck about it.

Well obviously one of the top reasons is control for Apple, nothing can be done here.

From the consumer perspective, and I could be biased because I have a ton of apple's hardware, I see trouble when making a dock. From my experience with microUSB it's fragile, you can sway it by pulling not exactly right, you will have to aim every time you put something in dock. Where as with new connector you don't have to aim - it will slide in, it will easily slide out because of locking mechanism.

S3 needs its own adapter for MHL. So much for a standard

And have another port on the phone for anything other than charging?

New iTunes actually does.

But pg doesn't take money for this.

I've seen "tips" on the internet of hooking up pingdom to keep dynes active at all times

Good to hear, better than nothing for sure. Though, I've tried pocket today and liked it.

What's the point of the service, if its author can selectively disable functionality for his own reasons, whatever they be?

What if you memorise it and then put on paper?

Agreed on second argument.

Wait, it is unjust to trick a criminal into revealing himself?

Does it have to look exactly like twitter though? It's already hard to describe what the hell the service is and why does it cost money, when it is basically twitter

What about accidental touches?
