@samsheffer iPhone Air feels like the first iPhone truly designed to be used caseless. Not just in terms of thinness, but the durability of the frame and ceramic coating. I’ve been using mine without a case since launch and it’s still in pristine condition.
@neilcybart I never saw the point of MagSafe. I’ve tripped over my power cord and yanked my Mac off the table, or seen someone do so, exactly ZERO times in my life. It seemed like a clever solution for an imaginary problem.
@xaviercross1971@neilcybart You apparently don’t understand the concept of market segmentation. I would not buy the Neo. You would not buy the Neo. People who have a (follow me on this) LOW-ER IN-COME and need a CHEAP-ER LAP-TOP that is a GREAT VAL-UE will buy the Neo. In droves.
@neilcybart Annoying under normal circumstances, galling for a mass layoff announcement. X is already hyperventilating about this starting a trend, but I think it’s widely known that Dorsey is a great founder and horrendous CEO.
@neilcybart These are real nuisances but largely avoidable by staying away from tourist traps. The more pervasive annoyance is ladies selling candy on the subways.
@deedydas Facebook has been hiring top tier technical talent for many years…and completely wasting it with no product vision other than copying others. Expect the same with happen here.
@neilcybart I initially held off on HomePod due to lack of home theater support. I had a Sonos soundbar and wanted speakers that could double as music speakers and TV speakers. I’m now holding off because I live a NYC apt and can’t use any bass-heavy speakers without noise complaints.
@Partisan_O It’s not just his overreach. His missed shot is juxtaposed directly with Anton Chigur’s effortless execution of a motorist, which sets up the dynamic between them: a skilled but flawed protagonist vs. an unstoppably determined force of nature.
@tim_elmo Maybe the more troubling question is why it's not discussed outside of intro to philosophy classes. Is the existence of God a settled or unimportant question? Has secularism become a dogma of modern society?
@Rick_Baumhauer@atpfm@marcoarment Agree. After trying the leather and clear cases, I’ve settled on using the mini caseless with the wallet. Wallet lets me set it down without worrying about scratches. And feels great in the pocket without the lip of the cases.
@JeffBessling Great! I got the clear case and the brown wallet (the latter coming in a couple weeks). I’m tempted to go case-less but my concrete floors make it a bit dicey. Enjoy!
@JeffBessling No benefit/savings for me sadly. I have Apple Music (annual) + 200GB iCloud for $11.24/month. Individual plan is extra $3.75/ month + ~$2/month to upgrade 50GB to 200GB. Not worth it for TV (light usage) and Arcade (no usage).
