Other times I’ll pick select a video and it just won’t play at all…
In the past couple days, whenever I pick a video to watch on YouTube on my Apple TV, it seems to start in some random location inside the video, not the start. What is that about?!

I can also reproduce this on my iPhone 16 Pro (non-Max).

I was having it happen organically earlier today before understanding where it was triggered, and I wondered if it was the app I was using,. But no, it’s this problem.

Someone further narrowed down the issue (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/touch-issues-with-16-pro-max-display.2437423/post-33429409), looks like touching the screen area next to the camera control will cause the screen to lock up 🫠

Due to unforeseen circumstances, my wife and I won't be able to go see @jamesdempsey and the Breakpoints live tonight. We’ll try to catch it on the live stream, but it won't be the same as being there.
This kind of makes me wish I didn’t have a ticket to tonight’s The Talk Show Live event so I could watch it via the Livestream on my Apple Vision Pro instead…

What do all of the devices Apple announced which support Apple Intelligence have in common? They have 8GB of RAM or more (and are the only iOS devices thus far with that much).
The one thing I can say about it: It makes the iPad Pro take a few weeks longer to arrive...

I have questions about the new nano-texture display option for the iPad Pro models…

Does it change the feel of the surface to touch? Does it make the pencil feel more like it's on paper? Does it make cleaning the display harder (or require a special cleaning cloth)? Does it cut down on the brightness or dynamic range?
