First Instance of Actual Computer Bug Being Found was on September 9th, 1947 (Or was it?) in c/technology@lemmy.ml

I had always thought this is where the term "bug" came from, but the log says "First actual case of bug being found", which to me implies misperforming routines were called bugs prior to the "bug" being found.

Apple to Limit iPhone 15 USB-C Cables to USB 2.0 Speeds: Report in c/technology@lemmy.world

[–] zumi -3 points 2 years ago

I haven’t transferred data over a usb cable in at least a decade. This means nothing to me.

I'd rather have a "Would you like to hide all Sports related Content?" button than a "Would you like to hide all NSFW content?" button in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

[–] zumi 4 points 2 years ago

Yes. Please help us learn how to get more sports in our feed!

Which browser do you use on MacOS? in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

[–] zumi 1 points 2 years ago

Safari. Power consumption is incredibly small.

App Store to require developers to describe why their apps use certain APIs in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

[–] zumi 1 points 2 years ago

Just to second this take: My experience is that initial app review gets failed for random reasons that you have to be ready to argue about. Then in updates to the app, the developer can do pretty much whatever you want without any consequences.

Vision Pro in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

I was skeptical. But I find it interesting that Apple never even tried to position the headset as a gaming device. They hardly ever even showed it in VR mode. Pretty much all the use cases they showed revolved around productivity and using it as computing device more than entertainment. Whether it works as advertised obviously still stands to be seen but it got me interested enough that I'll try to buy one.

What do you think about cloud services such as iCloud? If you use one, would you recommend it? in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

[–] zumi 1 points 2 years ago

This is actually an important point. No matter what cloud service someone picks, be sure you have a local copy of the data somewhere.

I would be so livid to lose 10 years of photos. That has got to be devastating.

Since many here probably use iCloud, I highly recommend for photos that people configure a Mac to keep a copy of all photos locally. (Settings->iCloud->"Download Originals to this Mac".

Magic Trackpad for work? Good, Bad or Fine? in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

[–] zumi 1 points 2 years ago

I use Magic Trackpad for work, and mouse for gaming. The Magic Trackpad is the superior input device for productivity work.

Interesting? How so?

Tim Cook uses Vision Pro every day; most iPhones bought on “some kind of program” in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

[–] zumi 1 points 2 years ago

I would love to have multiple Mac monitors, and hopefully this limitation is overcome at some point. But I think the short term solution might be using native apps for safari, slack, teams, and whatever else has a native app available, and using the singular Mac window for the IDE.

I would suggest just not subscribing to any communities on that site. Let's not turn everything into a defederate ~~war~~ debate.

My small brain goes straight to Ninja. But obviously we already have that one.
