Wait, there's literally only one port? So that's power ... how do you hook up an external display?

stet, Monday, 9 March 2015 17:44 (nine years ago) link

You share.

Now I have to buy two for doubting

Cool. This is C (USB 3.1 Type-C).

They're keeping all the old ones around still? Apple's getting bad at retiring old lines. You can still buy iPad 2, right?

stet, Monday, 9 March 2015 17:53 (nine years ago) link

Apple Watch keeps time.

Allen (etaeoe), Monday, 9 March 2015 17:55 (nine years ago) link

It's all about the price points. They can't do the new one at $999 yet so they're leaving the old one.

There's not really an excuse for iPad 2 anymore tho it's true

Main thing I want one for tbh

stately, plump buck angel (silby), Monday, 9 March 2015 17:56 (nine years ago) link

I'm glad they updated the MacBook Pro. The new MacBook is cute and all but I want something with a little more oomph and that plays well with my old crap without buying a slew of dongles and bullshit.

Don't know why you need this and the Air though.

EZ Snappin, Monday, 9 March 2015 17:56 (nine years ago) link

It sounds like the existing MacBook Air has better performance than the announced MacBook.

Allen (etaeoe), Monday, 9 March 2015 18:00 (nine years ago) link

I have the first-gen 11" and it's way, way too slow

stet, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:00 (nine years ago) link

Giselle or bust.

the measles detector on this apple watch is going to be useful in california

mh, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:03 (nine years ago) link

within 50ms of UTC time? not good enough!

mh, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:04 (nine years ago) link

right, i don't live in UTC

𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Monday, 9 March 2015 18:05 (nine years ago) link

after dealing with timestamps last week I am pretty cool with switching everyone to UTC

mh, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:18 (nine years ago) link

local sidereal time for all imo

Lot of videos to distract us from the simple fact that none of the interactions on the device seem compelling, especially when you have an iPhone in your pocket!

schwantz, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:28 (nine years ago) link

Unix time or bust.

Yep. :/

Allen (etaeoe), Monday, 9 March 2015 18:32 (nine years ago) link

looks like the kind of watch every day carry dudes will love

𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Monday, 9 March 2015 18:36 (nine years ago) link

Base model watch costs as much as the first iPod and yet comes with a rubber strap to make you feel cheap? FU Apple.

stet, Monday, 9 March 2015 18:54 (nine years ago) link

$79 for an adapter http://store.apple.com/us/product/MJ1K2AM/A/usb-c-digital-av-multiport-adapter

With built-in speaker and microphone, you can receive calls on your watch. I've been wanting to do this since I was five years old! The day is finally here!

Macbooks have "Turbo Boost"? Did we timewarp back to the '90s?

Nhex, Monday, 9 March 2015 19:16 (nine years ago) link

Cmon, the watch tells time! I think that's actually pretty cool. I've been wanting a watch.

stately, plump buck angel (silby), Monday, 9 March 2015 19:17 (nine years ago) link

all intel processors have turbo boost, and yes, intel lives very much in the 90s

mh, Monday, 9 March 2015 19:18 (nine years ago) link

Lol it's an extra £2500 to go from rubber strap to leather on the gold model. Luxury market yadda yadda but I really hope they choke on this one

stet, Monday, 9 March 2015 19:21 (nine years ago) link

it keeps time within 50 milliseconds of the definitive global time standard

what does this spec even mean? is this true even if you aren't connected to the internet? who cares? it is a digital watch.

Just bear in mind that the market for this is like Russian oligarchs and Chinese developers.

Yeah but there's usually some bullshit to make them feel they're getting some special rich-people-only value. Having the rubber strap version exposes the Veblen emperor's nudity.

It's like if there was a Rolls Royce identical in every way except it had steel wheels instead of alloys and was £45,000 cheaper.

This is interesting, wondering if Apple is explicitly positioning itself for an unequal world:

stet, Monday, 9 March 2015 20:03 (nine years ago) link

imo them milking the luxury market for all it is worth is admirable

mh, Monday, 9 March 2015 20:06 (nine years ago) link

Not when it means the stuff they ship for the rest of us is cheap tat

stet, Monday, 9 March 2015 20:09 (nine years ago) link

it's not, though, at least not yet :/

mh, Monday, 9 March 2015 20:20 (nine years ago) link

strongly considering one of these new 13" mbp thingers

mh, Monday, 9 March 2015 20:20 (nine years ago) link

50ms = we implemented NTP on this watch.

NTP is in OS 9, OS X and iOS and was developed in the 80s.

What's the clock drift if you don't have a network connection?
