@_Davidsmith The only feature I really ever adjust in Settings is Silence Unknown Callers. It’s always on except for when I’m expecting a call from someone who isn’t a contact. When I go to settings and in its search it suggests that settings which saves me like 30 seconds of scrolling around. What about making a widget to toggle a Setting like that?
@siracusa I was surprised to hear you use pinch to zoom the camera. I feel like the much easier / more natural method is to use my thumb to swipe on the zoom levels. That gesture works even better combined with the camera control button for capture. I don’t like how small the trackpad on the camera control button is for zoom. Too many swipes.
@siracusa I was stuck on the iPhone activating screen for a half hour then googled it and people suggested in a hard reboot and that worked.
@marcoarment Overcast feedback: I'm fine with the change to download vs streaming but it's a little bit of a bummer to have to wait ~5-30 seconds (depending on episode size and connection strength) for the episode to start playing. Would it be possible to add code to start playing a partially downloaded file once enough has been downloaded? Also, one minor bug, when I navigate to an unplayed episode the progress bar at the bottom shows the progress of the last episode I was listening to. This keeps confusing me because then I'm not sure if I have or haven't listened to that episode yet.
@siracusa you mentioned people could still notice crt flickering at up to 60hz. If someone reduced their iPad’s brightness down to 1/8 wouldn’t that effectively be 60hz? Maybe the people bothered by PWM set their iPads to lower brightness than you do?
@siracusa since I know you now own the new iPad Pro (like me) I recommend checking out the Netflix show “Ripley”. Not only is it a solid show, it really shows off the amazing contrast of the tandem OLED.
@marcoarment good video on the topic of people claiming you never need paper https://vimeo.com/62470169

@marcoarment I own a Model Y and wanted to get rid of it due to Musk. I test drove an iX last year and was in love with it because the suspension is heavenly. The Y has such a harsh ride. I didn’t end up getting it because it’s just so expensive. Maybe it will come down in the used market.
@caseyliss used EV6 GTs aren’t hard to find and are staggeringly cheaper than new.
@marcoarment so the only obstacle for a LLM front end is developers documenting their code? I guess it will never be successful then.
