forgot I just have one of these air port NAS things and only remembered after they Killed It it sucks also if u were wondering

@applefiles_ You can't hold on the icon to open its settings directly. Turning flash on is now an extra swipe, since auto flash is terrible.

Camera UI - iOS 26 vs iOS 27 beta (1/2)

@jsuchal Chválim použitie slova "keď" a nie "ak". Poznám ho, a garantujem, že buď to budú akceptovať alebo ešte roky ľutovať, keď ich bude naťahovať kade tade 😀

Ak sa chcete dnes pobaviť, tak tu je príbeh študenta, čo sa ide hádať s právnickou fakultou, lebo im poslal niečo elektronicky a oni to silou mocou chcú papierovo. Keď toto dá, myslím, že by mu rovno mali pribaliť aj ten bakalársky titul. platforma.slovensko.digital/t/zarucena-kon…

@gibarilla @jewiss @LelloucheNico Apple's private data? It's MY private data on MY phone. I don't agree with EU blocking this, but this argument is not valid.

@jewiss @LelloucheNico So the argument is that any company should be able to work with Apple's private data. Let alone this absurdity given how sensitive that data is, and how dangerous "third-party" AI can be, why not push it further? Why not force Apple to make Siri compatible with iPhone 1? :)

EXCLUSIVE: Apple and the EU are telling very different stories on Siri AI, and right now, it's a standoff. Apple's press release and comments to @LelloucheNico say the DMA would force it to give rival assistants deep access to messages, files, photos, app actions, and personal context, creating privacy/security risks. I reached out to the EU Commission for comment, and they discussed it today (video below). They said nothing in the DMA blocks Siri AI. Apple can launch it if it complies, but it must give rivals "equivalent access" and can’t use iOS to favour its own AI. Apple proposed a “Trusted System Agent” and an 18-month rollout to ensure only approved third-party agents could run. The Commission says they weren't "DMA-compliant interoperability proposals." Whatever that means. This is a standoff over who controls the AI layer on iPhone. The EU isn’t protecting user choice here. It’s trying to regulate the iPhone’s AI layer, and EU users are the ones losing out. iPhone users can already download ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Perplexity. Apps like @poppysimplified can use your Mac to get system-level access for AI assistant apps. The EU is demanding default, system-level access for any third-party app that claims to be an AI assistant. Which is dangerous, especially given Apple's privacy-focused AI stance. Apple, respectably, is not bowing down.

@mweinbach Except the new Siri window lmao

On Mac the side bars with Liquid Glass now go all the way to the edge And the corner radius is now consistent across all apps

For every person who replies with a screenshot of their cancelled Claude Code plan, I will donate $10 to open source.

@shottr_cc That's not a trick, that's bad UX. The user has no way to know this feature exists unless they randomly start pressing buttons.

Lesser-known trick: you can control Spotlight intensity by pressing number keys on your keyboard (1...9) while the Spotlight object is selected. Press 1 for the lightest option, and 9 for the darkest. (The default is 3.)

@miaaowing @anticringeclub Agreed. The button should not unlock the computer until you let go of it

@RafajRichard @anticringeclub they should fix the timeouts in software instead of making everyone do this i feel

back to complain about macOS: why does the lock button work only 50% of the time, and even then takes 3 seconds to lock????

@miaaowing @anticringeclub Press it on the corner, not on the scanner part/with the wrong finger. That's what I do. Or Ctrl CMD Q

@anticringeclub theres no timeout on login, so when i intentionally press it slowly, the thing fucking unlocks 😭😭

@RonanACNH @aaronp613 Nope

@aaronp613 I think they’re just forcing them to use the iOS 26 elements?

It appears Apple has started to push out app updates on behalf of third party apps “This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included”

@luciascarlet My AA battery Magic Mouse polls at 250hz, more than the built in trackpad which is only 125hz.

can they PLEASE update the Magic peripherals to at the *very least* poll at 120 Hz now that they’re selling their own 120 Hz desktop monitor that they want you to use with their Mac Studio and Magic peripherals

@DylanMcD8 @saraaa7447 Widgets work without iPhone mirroring as they were introduced prior to it. Everything else was introduced with iPhone mirroring and does not work without it.

@saraaa7447 Reminder that iPhone Mirroring also encompasses iPhone widgets on Mac, iPhone notifications on Mac, iPhone Live Activities on Mac....

never in my life have i felt the need to use iphone mirroring on my mac lol

@psafarcik_ @Josef_Pilcik Good to know, priznám sa že som nikdy carplay platbu neskúšal. Ten QR je veľmi pohodlný.

@RafajRichard @Josef_Pilcik Nedalo mi to, koukal jsem se do guide a nikde to nezmiňují (asi se na to nemyslelo), na druhou stranu jsem díky tomu po X měsících od uvedení zjistil, že už lze provést klasickou "in-car payment" platbu. 😁 youtube.com/watch?v=xMPPld…

Když už jsou teď benzínky jedním z hlavních témat, všimli jste si této schizofrenie? Zákaz používat mobil a hned vedle výzva k jeho použití. 🤔

@psafarcik_ @Josef_Pilcik "Načti alespoň z 30cm" je potom protirečné

Musíte číst podrobně návod a podmínky 😀, abych byl upřímný tak jsem v ORLEN app na ně "viditelně" nenarazil, ale svého času když se vyvíjel Masterpass pro Shell (dnes nahrazen SmartPay), tak se do app dávalo upozornění a návod, jak se má správně zaplatit. Měl byste totiž natankovat, a po natankování provést platbu z auta, tak jako u klasických "in-car payments".

@chrisprice @stetsondoggett I know the difference between NSA and SA. NSA supports uplink aggregation (UL EN-DC) across 4G and 5G and every carrier I’ve dealt with does it. Are you assuming NSA just can't do it, or do you have proof that AT&T/VZW specifically disable it on their end?

So this is a limitation of early 5G technology. To get 5G out the door, it has to piggyback on 4G. 5G Standalone was the network (and device) update that would fix this. AT&T and Verizon saw it as low priority, having fewer Internet only customers, and 5G Voice (VoNR) being delayed. COVID really delayed AT&T and Verizon rolling it out. AT&T is fairly close to completion. Verizon is close too. AT&T is being extremely cautious in opening up access. They're literally gating in one device at a time. Goes back to a fine they got from the FCC in the early days of VoLTE.

And this is why I pay for fiber instead of using fixed wireless for my home internet. Currently testing a fixed wireless product now, hence the slow upload speeds, but man, sooo excited to go back to fiber.

@chrisprice @stetsondoggett They don't aggregate 5G and 4G upload?? Is this only for home internet or also for mobile subscribers?

@stetsondoggett If you're in a Verizon or AT&T NSA area, you're only using 4G for upload. Things will get better when 5G SA is fully available network wide, on all devices.

@MKBHD Technically cheaper than upgrading the storage previously to that amount. So still a price decrase for users who need actual storage.

Apple doing the same thing as S26 phones from Samsung - higher base prices, but also higher base storage Macbook Air goes from $999 to $1099 but also starts at 512GB instead of 256GB Macbook Pro (M5 Pro) goes from $1999 to $2199 but now starts at 1TB instead of 512GB

@BenGeskin It's not Qi2??? wow, all that hype for nothing. (The animation would be full screen, like MagSafe. Dynamic island animation while wirelessly charging = capped at 7.5W and will get HOT).

This is Xiaomi UltraThin Magnetic Power Bank 5000 15W ✨ And it fits my iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone Air perfectly 👏 • 5000 mAh • 6mm thin • 15W wireless charging • 22.5W wired charging Priced at €59.99 for silver and black. Orange is €64.99 😄

@yoshinokentarou It's for head tracked spatial audio

Apple Silicon搭載MacBookに「非公開の加速度センサー」が内蔵されていることが大発見される。 更にその状況をリアルタイムで視覚化する「加速度計のアプリ」も公開されたンだッッ!! ↓以下、コメント欄に公開サイトのURLと詳細説明

@Sankew06 @SoSourKeiran Maybe it was blocked. Wifi Calling is pretty much a VPN connection directly to your carrier. Calls, SMS, and anything else that would normally go through the cell network will go through that tunnel.

@SoSourKeiran I know about that, but I never had this option before at all with any of my other carriers, and I’ve used Starlink on flights before

noticed something very interesting today i could somehow use my SIM card on my flight that had Starlink connectivity, when I had my carrier’s Satellite functionality turned on(iirc my carrier uses Starlink too) this is not a bug, I can confirm
