@jordan @BasicAppleGuy Probably wanted to avoid comparison with the price of the Neo
@tg and name it Deluge.
@sageolson @siracusa This is so bad I had to read your comment, then go read the ALT to figure out what was happening

How UI degrades over time.

Top (Windows 95): great contrast, obvious shapes. Instantly readable.

Middle (Windows 11): shapes are still self-explanatory, but contrast is gone.

Bottom (Windows 11 Insiders): what am I even looking at? The only shape I can understand here is the Run button. Barely visible, though.

Then, on the left, there’s another something that says Run and has an icon. What is it? A window title? Another button? Why does it have to say Run twice?
... 1/3

@cabel In their defense, they only had a 33% chance of getting it right.
@atpfm Hoping this works out in your favor and Apple announces the new Apple TV and HomePod mini tomorrow 🤞

The app is free and available everywhere, so that will just be Apple TV.

The device is a premium product compared to other devices, that will be Pro.

The paid subscription is the highest tier, therefore Pro Max.

“I have Apple TV Pro Max in Apple TV on my Apple TV Pro.”

“The fact that ICEBlock was built on iOS and not Android is an example of how much trust people who care about security and privacy have been willing to put in Apple.”

This alone should hit it home as Tim often likes to say “only Apple can do.”

Apple should’ve still kept the swiping gesture to reveal the vertical list instead of forcing you to tap the tiny arrow. No need to break that muscle memory!

@atpfm @gruber

So it turns out Apple now not only allows referencing unreleased OS versions, but also calling it however you like it 🤷
