Tahoe just keeps on giving… somehow Finder has forgotten how to animate a circular progress indicator for inline audio previews.
@tuomas_h Slop or just sloppy? Who knows a this point…
@tuomas_h I just hate that this feature still exists at all.
@tuomas_h I mean – who wants to play anything inside a Finder icon? There is QuickLook for that. Even less useful for videos. If I could scrub through the video it could be something, but sequentially playing in stamp size? Thanks, no.
@gklka For video I understand, but I use this for audio files all the time. It wouldn’t be the end of the world if it wasn’t there but I absolutely find it useful.
@tuomas_h why not Quick Look?
@gklka It’s simply a matter of can I click on the thing once and it plays, or do I have to click on it to select it and then press the space bar to make it play. Again, not the end of the world, just something I’m used to and find useful.
@gklka @tuomas_h That seems beside the point. If Apple didn’t think anyone wanted to do it, they wouldn’t have added the feature. And if they added it, it should work well.
@gklka @tuomas_h You can also page through PDF files inside their icons, unusefully!

@tuomas_h Sometimes I wish Steve Jobs could come back to life and deliver his rightful vengeance upon Apple Park.
@morrick @tuomas_h It’s starting to seem like they’re going to achieve carbon neutrality for Apple Park based on the energy generated by the rapidly spinning turbine formerly known as Steve’s grave.
@tuomas_h ok, that’s actually hilarious. It’s like someone screen recorded using a mouse to trace a circle.

@tuomas_h smells like a case of ensloppification.
@tuomas_h This is so weird. I was able to reproduce and can confirm it gets more noticeable the shorter the sound clip is. At 4s you barely notice it, but anything below that is very obvious.
@vitor @tuomas_h hm, I suspect they’re using segments that are a fixed millisecond length, and when the clip is short enough there are only a few segments so it freaks out
@tuomas_h They're just copying Google 😆
@tuomas_h WTF is this? I’m happy to be on 15.x
@tuomas_h BuT If YOu PaID aTTentiON to THe DetAILs It's BECAUse OF CoNceNtrICity
@tuomas_h I laughed out loud. That is some quality ass jank.
@tuomas_h It's so dorky. Love it. Absolute cinema!
@tuomas_h @marcoarment maybe it's trying to be a squircle…?
@tuomas_h some people would struggle to create this effect for months for their games or deliberate wonky UIs. In macOS you get it for free. Just magical ✨
@tuomas_h this should be fixed in the 26.4 beta already.
