My MacBook Pro is certainly better for having done a nuke & pave with Catalina, which I should have done when it was new but chose to restore from a MacBook Air backup.

FujiXerox print drivers, you might be waiting a while :)

@DeepPan, I know.

Right after Ewen said “no difference”, there was a loud beep, then no audio on dtream
DeepPan
16:05:03
yep, no sound
windrider

FujiXerox claim they’ll have drivers by January but I’m not holding my breath. It took them 18 months to get Yosemite-compatible drivers out.

I don't want Apple to produce too many shows. I want quality not quantity. 99% of the stuff on Netflix is crap
bobbeach

You shouldn't miss it as the next esposde appears on tht TV app under up Next
bobbeach

Not all reviews Jeff. The Guardian reviewer loved it

bobbeach

Sorry, but I hated The Newsroom.

bobbeach

It didn't bother me at all. So what?
bobbeach
16:33:09
I love it too. It's easily the best of the shows
bobbeach

A very clever, plausible, alternative history
bobbeach
16:35:05
Small changes @Patrice?! I wouldn't say that as the Soviet Union got there first!

DeepPan
16:39:22
… or is it a show about a antiques expert turn tv presenter, with wood-stained skin? :D
bobbeach
16:41:52
It's a book I'd like to read
DeepPan
16:42:22
Is she still wearing a cape?
bobbeach

DeepPan
16:43:12
Does the bookclub show give out links to the book in the Apple Store?
bobbeach
16:44:10
By the way, the streamong video quality on ApleTV+ is superb

Good thing with the new AirPods is that there’s no pressure in the ear like you get with other in-ear
bobbeach
16:47:31
The audio quality is definitely better for me - better bass, clearer treble
DeepPan
16:48:18
and no pressure on the eardrum, like you get with over the ear noise cancelling headsets
mullerbiker
16:49:00
Why nt get these what hifi 5 star quality unlike airpods
mullerbiker

@Ewen, I’ve had that, restarting the AppleTV seems to clear it

The seperate boxes are usually supported way longer than the smart TV apps from my experience.

@Atley, it looks like the physical limit for HDMI cables are 15m. Over that, you’ll need some sort of extender/repeater

I have also been examining HDMI over Ethernet, that apparently is possible because of the powered connectors on either end.
DeepPan
20:47:18
As long as those adapters will still support the copyright protection like HDCP
BenGillam
20:47:30
The trouble is all the licensing stuff prevents access to many or makes it awkward and piracy becomes the easy way round it
