Did anyone else totally memory-hole the Desk View feature that came out with Continuity Camera a few years ago? It’s super cool but I absolutely forgot it existed.

A new 12MP Center Stage camera with support for Desk View makes video calls even more engaging. Center Stage keeps everyone perfectly centered on a video call — great for families gathered on FaceTime. Desk View makes use of the wide-angle lens to simultaneously show the user and a top-down view of their desk, which is useful for educators presenting a lesson to students, or creators showing off their latest DIY project.​

Who’s going to cave first, @lexfri or @film_girl? My money’s on Christina, but Lex does have a whole purple thing going on…

It’s curious when Apple does and doesn’t need to take the store offline ‘We’ll be back soon’ for product launches. I’m pretty sure there was no downtime for the new iMacs today. Is it purely a marketing ploy, or do big launches need bigger infrastructure changes?

Oooh! We’re getting a 10-minute video introduction with John Ternus, hosted from their new Observatory. I’m perhaps even more excited to see this new space than the iMac!

I’m betting that since they’re saying more languages are coming for Apple Intelligence in December, they’re targeting 18.2 to be released by then.

I dig the furniture in Apple Park being color-matched to HomePod mini.

@jarrod they’ve had pink since 2021 (I’ve been wanting it since then 😅)

@jwithy I guess the old red-backed one did look pink from the front. Now it’s pink on both sides!

@jarrod haha yeah I double checked it to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating before I replied 😅 but with the matching keyboard and mouse, that 2021 one was definitely pink. Love that they are making it even pinker!
