    Apparently you can film with two lenses at the same time?

    Neat.

    Edit: Yeah, you can frame a shot with all three lenses and shoot with 2 of them simultaneously. You can also shoot with a rear lens and the front camera at the same time.

    Not that miniaturized, though, it's still got a 12 kilometer screen.

    Back when I was doing amateur video docs, the ability to shoot with both front and rear would have been a game changer. I really like that.

    considering the camera upgrade I would almost say this phone is decent value... except I'm sure the version that actually comes with disk space is $700 extra

    Hey now, friend, you don't need disk space, just keep it all on the cloud! That's only $500 extra.

    there was a brief moment where I thought he mispronounced introducing Dara O'Briain

    followed by several moments of me asking myself why the fuck I would think Dara O'Briain would be there for any reason

    a "has disk space" 11 Pro is $1150 on AT&T

    i can't recall if there's any difference with the Max other than being physically larger

    your current watch is the best watch ever

    also, if you take it off, you'll die

    I have a hard time getting excited for these things anymore. At least this has the new dual and tri cameras. But I think I'm getting a yearly electronics fatigue. Like the new Samsungs held no value for me when they released and all I get from this is "Hey cool new cameras!" but the phone stuff is just...slightly better? I guess?

    When do they launch new iPads?

    they just did launch a new ipad, but it's just the new entry level one

    the new pro will probably come late november

    They did not.

    I'm glad I didn't wait for the Note 10 either because Samsung took the headphone jack out of that one too. I hate this trend.

    Yeah I even have wireless earbuds now, but I still love cheap wired headphones and use them often. Keep the Jack!

    We should get a protest movement going. Go to the next one of these Apple has and get a chant going. Jack! jack! jack! we will scream

    Edit: Wait we would need to be more clear. We need them to know we want a jack in the phone. Lets chant "jack in it" instead

    Damn, some discrete low-power cores to handle lower-priority tasks? Filming with the front and back camera at the same time? "haptic touch"?

    I'm so excited for all this years-old tech to finally make its way into the flagship iPhone!

    the triple camera looks fake every time i look at it.

    just weird looking in a way i cannot describe.

    edit: also really stretching the definition of telephoto here with a 52mm equiv. focal length. basically dead on normal.

    My partner has a little Intel NUC that she does her photo editing on, but she has been getting frustrated with its limitations, so I'm looking at building her a proper system.

    Does anyone have any advice on what I should be looking at for a more (reasonably priced) photoshop/lightroom focused workstation? I've only ever built gaming PCs, so I'm not sure how this compares.

    Ideally I'd like to keep it physically compact if possible too, but that's not a huge priority.

    My strategy has been to build a low end gaming pc with just a shitload of ram. It seems to work ok.

    They're pushing the camera side of it really hard as far as distinguishing features. For me, I need a big boy, I need a great big boy, so I'm stuck with the pro.

    Rachel and I are getting closer to needing new phones. Our current phones are the 6S+, which are still holding on pretty well but are starting to get issues with batteries and stuff.

    how do y'all deal with the red sections of the screen?

    like with my 5.2inch screen, I can barely hit the far corner

    I can't think of how hard that would be with a bigger phone

    is it just a big hands thing?

    Alternately if I am using my phone one-handed and need to hit the far top left side of the screen I just let the phone slide down my hand a little and bounce in off my chest or whatever to reposition it.
