For Christmas I got a Google Cardboard compatible dingus and I’ve just gotten around to playing with it and I’m acting like a kid. I want to do all the things in VR. What are responsibilities?
iPhone, iPad, and iCloud have all my calendar events. Looks like my Mac is not displaying certain events… Reopening, resyncing, etc don’t make them show. Gotta love it.
This time last year we got the earlier-than-expected announcement of WWDC. Hope we find out dates for this year soon even though we likely won’t also receive news of a whole new location again.
Bought concert tickets to Steven Wilson and Thank You Scientist this morning. April is going to be a heavy month of prog rock in DC. Can’t wait.
You can fart music that sounds better than Echo, as far as I’m concerned.
@joec has a way with words. A great read about voice assistants.
I’ll add that Apple’s approach with domains vs Amazon’s “bash command line” interface has the better chance to become the assistant imagined at the end of this piece. Normal users aren’t going to want to “pipe” together commands.
They’re back at it. Lost in Vegas reviews Working Man.
Never thought I would be the guy to say this, but I kinda wish I never upgraded to High Sierra. No noticeable changes and I just realized I lost Logic Pro 9. Yes I know its beyond time to get X but I don’t know if I can justify it. 9 would be super handy right now.
At my friends trying to listen to FM on his HomePod and it seems to think I want the radio, not the Steely Dan song. Doesn’t matter if I say “by Steely Dan”.
Looks like HomePod has its own alarm sound that is currently not customizable. Would be nice if you could set the alarm to be any song from the Apple Music library like iPhone. My Echo can do that with Spotify via voice command, though I find it to be sometimes inconsistent.
So it took a day to remember why I dropped Apple Music. Started playing some random live Red Barchetta instead of the album version when it thinks it’s playing Moving Pictures…
