This reminds me of my windows laptop asking me for my finger print, while me using two external monitors with a docking station and the laptop shut.

• Text to speech Intercom as action in Home (not just in shortcuts): „Dear all, the front door has been open for more than 10 minutes“)
• Share iCloud libraries with write privilege to non Apple users
• same for shared folders
• when using an external monitor with an iPad, play sound over iPad (not the connected monitor)
• bullet points within table cells in notes app.
• better Siri

The weather app is so bloated! I like the new watch faces. But I really have to get used to using only one.

I am curious, when would you need offline maps? Do you live in an area with bad cell network? Or is your data plan expensive?

Edit: thanks for all your answers. Next time I travel I will download the map of the destination area. Also I added hot spots such as the local stadium and the city center, hoping, that when I take the subway during rush hours maps will work snappier.

So TSMPFKaT? That’s catchy!

If you don’t understand what you are paying how do you know you are upgrading.

I am fully aware of what I am paying for. I pay for more convenience in my life and for that I don’t need I don’t want to understand everything underneath the surface. I want to take photos, maybe in bad lighting. For that I don’t want to read a manual, buy some extra equipment, take some sort of classes, etc. I don’t care about the underlying technology (long-time exposure, lense-shift, AI-stuff, etc.)

but in general you should care about what you are buying. If you go to buy a washing machine you don’t go and point finger and black and say I want this one.

Of course not. I also check the programs what the product is capable of and how it eases my daily life. Therefore I don’t need to know the material the barrel is made of, how many holes it has and if the water flows counterclockwise or not.

99% of your daily life problems is solved with literally any laptop, PC or phone out there right now.

Sure, but within the Apple world there is no initial setup or tweaking required. Set the default browser on a Windows PC to Chrome? Windows: “I sometimes don’t care”. Attach two external monitors to a Windows PC? Lottery game, which one is left and right. Close the laptop in the same setting? Windows will ask you for your fingerprint to log in. I have encountered so so many absurd situations within the Windows world. Yes, maybe some Linux distro might be better, but just ask your neighbor two doors further to install it all on her own and I bet you she will fail.

What you are looking for is style over substance.

This mindset is the exact problem 80% of tec-savy people why there are still so many products that fail miserably in usability tests. No, they are NOT looking for “stylish” products (maybe some are, yes, but not the majority) but for products they can actually use without the need of taking care of them like a child (“I need an app to find those apps that drain my RAM on my Android device”.) or needing to take evening classes to sync contacts between phone and laptop. Sorry to say, but declassing these customers as blatant sheep, thinking they run for style only is condescending.

If you are looking to solve problems then you look at specs

No.

As a user (not a tec person) I seek solutions that fit my daily life problems. I don’t care for technical specs. I don’t want to fiddle and tweak my system until I can finally start proceeding my task. I want to take decent photos, I don’t care about the chip size or brand. I want to share those with others and not take care of the technical infrastructure (cloud, encryption, compression, etc.). I want to rotate videos I took, I don’t care about the processor who does that. If the product is not capable of doing so I will return it.

Apple does not overwhelm me with technical specs. They offer those features I need to proceed my daily private leisure time tasks. In 95% of my cases I probably don’t need to care about “RAM” or “Lidar”, unless I experience some downsides. I am willing to pay for a higher price tag to enhance my system if everything else “around” that system eases my daily life. And no, I am not willing to pay a ridiculous higher price tag like that monitor stand. Yes, there are some customers out there buying those products. No, they are not the majority.

Management not admitting time estimates from dev, management not willing to understand dev estimates (to maybe find a smaller solution together) and/or dev committing to not reachable deadlines are not scrum problems.

This sounds like poor communication between dev and PO.

Who moderates it?

Correctly implemented its the exact opposite. But that seldomly happens, often due to management.

Scrum uncovers problems the organisation was not aware of before which is why it has such a bad reputation. „What do you mean I can’t push my feature requesting in to dev when ever I want? I thought we are agile?“

I don’t buy logos. I buy products that solve problems in my daily life. Apple comes to be very very good at offering appropriate solutions I don’t need to deal with beforehand to become such a solution. In this case of course the product is crap, if it can’t handle the environment its supposed to work in.

Oh I know many occasions to bring this up…

I am quite sure this is a legal issue. If they admit the mistake, probably customers in many countries would be allowed a free replacement or refund. And then shareholders would sue the company because it is mandatory to work on maximising profit.

It is forbidden to block the ball by jamming it with the feet, legs, etc., if this prevents an opponent from playing the ball (in accordance with the rules). The addition of the rule conformity is important, because it is a variant of dangerous play.

Ok thanks for the confirmation.

Ok thanks for the confirmation :-)

I am guessing that liking a song will have some sort of influence on my personal radio.

Yes it took me a while to understand that adding a song to a playlist shoves it in to my library also.
