@jthingelstad 😍

@jsonbecker Pretty sure yes to the first. Not so sure about the double-hit. But that’s cool!

@jarrod okay, but Automator I can’t abide.

@jsonbecker You should have just heard my hearty chuckle. 😆

@agiletortoise I’m sad to hear that support is going away soonish. I’ve tried to set up Network Time Machine on my old Mac mini now that I have a laptop, but it’s not playing nicely and so my backups are unreliable. Time Capsule was such a cool product.

@jsonbecker Because neither facts nor empathy no longer matter to the majority party. 😔

@jsonbecker that’s so refreshing to hear

@matt Unfortunately not, but at least now you can use your phone without fumbling with the passcode.

@matt Right? Second best to iPhone Mirroring in visionOS.

@pratik Been doing that for years! But I might swap them to give new Spotlight a fresh chance.

@pratik My wife and I are super good about doing it, but I’ve also disliked the multi-step dance every time I want to watch something.

@jarrod Major wins for iPadOS and visionOS. watchOS and iOS a little more muted, but still good. I’m going to have to take the new macOS for a spin to decide if I like the visual overhaul there, but Spotlight is a notable winner. tvOS remains a product in the lineup. Excited to dig in more!

@jarrod All right, the 6 out of 5 stars bit at the end got a chuckle out of me.

@jarrod There you go, podcasters. It only took 26 versions of iPadOS, but you finally got native local capture and input selection. It’s possibly even better than what’s built into macOS!

@jarrod Wait. What? No arbitrary restrictions on iPads that can do the new windowing system? Is this the same Apple? Maybe my iPad mini can continue to be my one and only!

@jarrod Triangle pointer! NotMarkGurman had the real early scoops on @connected!

@jarrod It’s happening! iPadOS is indeed getting more Mac-like with better windowing, file management, and audio/video capabilities.

@jarrod Profiles and shared experiences make visionOS somehow more multiuser-capable than iPadOS.

@jarrod Mike Rockwell’s team is killing it. All these upgrades to visionOS look awesome. Hopefully it’ll make me want to use Vision Pro more?

@jarrod WHOA! That Persona upgrade looks remarkably great. I’ve really gotta try that feature out.

@jarrod Speaking of Vision Pro… these persistent widgets on visionOS look fantastic!!

@jarrod Gotta say, watching the keynote on the TV app in Vision Pro alongside Mac Virtual Display for group chat and hot takes is pretty great! 🥽

@jarrod I hope Spotlight is totally navigable via the keyboard.

@jarrod Ooooh Spotlight will search menu items for the current app too. And, holy shit, clipboard history without a third-party app!
