New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

(That's also what the ladies say about me, coincidentally)

how's the battery life?

yeah I'm also thinking about getting the 64GB SE. Maybe tonight, in fact.

way better than my 5, but that's maybe because it's new idk.

well i've got a 3+ year old 5 that requires sporadic charging throughout the day, regardless of how it's been used. and if it gets even a little cold outside, it'll just suddenly run out of batteries. if i try to do anything with it in an area with poor reception (say, the basement of the hospital), it'll drop 20-30% of charge in the span of a few minutes. using the camera on anything less than 70% runs the risk of sudden death.

so really any improvement would be good

An SE will be a big improvement, do it.

yall are convincing me -- was poised to jump ship to the new google phones but they are just a little too pricey

Apple still isn't selling your eternal soul to advertisers fwiw

this is true

I went from a 5 to an SE a month ago

A+++ would bang again

whoa do newer apple phones not suffer big battery drain when the mobile network is weak? b/c my 5-experience matches gbx's in that regard.

I think the radios are better so you get better signal which means it's less of an issue

aw man i just went to the verizon store and...i think i like the 7? and also the pixel

:-/

dead to me

i haven't decided yet!

i've had an se for about a month and it is a v good experience

lol

cheap keys, no esc, wtf

No physical esc sucks but contextual function keys is potentially super useful.

how am I going to emacs now

You mean vim

Emacs heavier on Ctrl

seems fucked up but have you ever looked at the buttons on any dell laptop

I think they're getting better but holy shit man. It's like the invention of the laptop made people think you needed to cram all the buttons that were on the front of your desktop, on your monitor, and the keyboard keys on to the laptop somewhere

kind of waiting for laptops to just have one big button you can maybe push if you want to

Apparently the button votes for Trump and self-destructs.

brb photoshopping "NUT" on to that button in the comic

That new Surface Studio by M$ looks pretty fantastic. That company is doing a lot of things right.

Yup! Want the new surface book or the old one on eBay!

The form factor is terrific, but how to cope with Windows...

the Dial looks useful, too

hey guess what guys: its thinner

the strip is not as terrible as i assumed it would be

touch bar keyboard for desktops?

best product lineup ever, with no mention at all of all the out of date desktops? ugh.

guess I'll take this over to the hate thread.

the UK pricing.... fucking ouch

a hard brexit

imo the marketing on the website saying "connect two 5K displays and two RAID arrays!" makes me think the interim plan is to ignore the desktop world completely and go full laptop

the strip is so dumb

Agree. Too small to be useful

Yeah I guessed plan was for no standalone pros any longer as well. I did think they might do a standalone key board with bar though.

Fuck that pricing is killer though.

Don't see it that way. The buttons w Ike's labels on my Wacom tablet are useful. I see this as a better version if that. As somehow who often can't remember which function key does what in various programs, that alone is useful.

The bar seems gimmicky. I like the touch ID part.

They have hiked the decrepit Mac Pro by £500!

that strip looks like those touch-thermometers that you're supposed to apply to your kid's head in order to read temperature, that never work correctly and that I always throw away
