The big benefit is that you wait less on those massive OS updates.
patrice
16:40:03
Totally can't hear you :P
patrice
16:42:09
The event should have been called "still tied down"
chuckjoiner
16:42:32
Please don't tell Jeff that. He will go somewhere with it.
patrice
16:43:58
I do.. I never do days off unless I have to 😂
KingBenRoethig
16:44:07
is that the next 50 shades sequel?
chuckjoiner
16:44:11
Uh huh
patrice
16:44:55
Poor chuck
patrice
16:47:13
eeh.. German.. Austrian.. potato..potato
KingBenRoethig
16:47:28
Ja

Tip Types - candidate for show title
patrice
16:56:34
The Queen is grateful to receive the crown. All hail the former King!
patrice
16:56:53
It was VERY close. One question decided it at the end
patrice
16:57:36
WWDC June 10-14, so June 7 will be the next keynote poker
patrice
16:58:16
(i can look it up.. doesn't require much effort) 😂

hi
chuckjoiner
17:03:26
Is this thing on?
patrice
17:03:28
Doing well so far
patrice
17:04:18
I actually didn't make it. It was Anders
patrice
17:04:32
Everything else was correct!
patrice
17:04:51
Well done
chuckjoiner
17:05:12
He goes out in a blaze of glory
KingBenRoethig
17:05:24
bon jovi style
patrice
17:07:26
The Air also has the landscape camera.
patrice
17:07:34
but no FaceId.
patrice
17:07:59
I switched to an air 2 years ago (I think?). Not missed FaceID much
patrice
17:11:48
The huge problem with this lineup: Not as if the iPads from years ago were under powered. The software is still not using any of it. So we really didn't need more powerful hardware. Other than that it looks good in marketing materials
KingBenRoethig
17:12:28
yep.
KingBenRoethig
17:13:10
its why I as of today I can't recommend anytthing higher than the 10th gen or mini for anything but very specific use cases
KingBenRoethig
17:16:54
I'm waiting on ipadOS to catch up with the M1
patrice
17:16:55
In 14 years of iPad, the software never caught up with the hardware.
patrice
17:17:42
Sticking with my prediction from last year. In 5-10 years, the iPad will have been largely replaced by Apple Vision
patrice
17:17:56
(which is not a bad thing)
KingBenRoethig
17:17:58
agree
patrice
17:20:31
It wouldn't. The data volume is already separate, so it could be shared!
patrice
17:21:19
It's identical
patrice
17:22:14
(large parts of the underlying OS for iPhone OS were forked off of Mac OS X, so it shares a lot of common concepts)
patrice
17:24:02
Oh if you're using modern apps, you can do that today. With SwiftUI and Catalyst
patrice
17:24:31
The problem is the underlying OS. macOS is much more powerful
chuckjoiner
17:24:49
elaborate on "powerful" please
patrice
17:25:11
More APIs. More feature rich APIs
patrice
17:25:19
More tools in general
chuckjoiner
17:25:21
got it. Thanks.
patrice
17:26:51
You run into a lot of limitations when you develop for iPadOS. Which is not always a bad thing (it's a different platform after all) and doesn't mean you can't develop apps there. Just certain things are harder or impossible
KingBenRoethig
17:27:38
that and in certain niches you have devs who just don't want to develop for the app store
chuckjoiner
17:27:43
This may be why I don't quite get it: I'm not a developer. I'm seeing it from an end-user perspective.
patrice
17:28:16
Apple Pencil (USB-C) and Apple Pencil Pro can be used on both the Air and Pro
patrice
17:29:08
true @KingBenRoethig
patrice
17:29:38
@chuckjoiner As an end user you will notice that certain apps lack features or don't exist at all.
chuckjoiner
17:30:01
And I will miss them only if they are ones I use! :)
patrice
17:30:14
Absolutely!
patrice
17:30:38
You use Audio Hijack. You can't (yet) on iPad OS
chuckjoiner
17:31:23
Actually, I don't.
patrice
17:31:53
ok. Then it's a bad example. But I guess you get the point 😊
chuckjoiner
17:32:40
I do. Absolutely!
patrice
17:37:06
I could trade my Air in for about 560. A new Air with more storage is about 1080. So.. would not be a bad deal. I just don't see the value. Other than that i'm running out of storage.
chuckjoiner
17:39:25
Do you have external storage options for the Air, Patrice?
patrice
17:40:03
Sure. Just not super convenient when traveling and you want to load up the iPad with movies and shows @chuckjoiner
chuckjoiner
17:40:16
Granted.
patrice
17:40:52
Could just use my Mac. And TBH that's probably what I'll end up doing.
patrice
17:41:25
Can do that from my bed @JeffG
patrice
17:42:29
Tying to slowly wind down my iPad use. Will jump on a Vision pro as soon as I can. That will take over the consumption tasks it serves right now
patrice
17:42:56
See you @KingBenRoethig Good luck!
patrice
17:43:24
The pattern is: bet against everyone
