13:28 I mean, everyone knows what boob(a/s) are, right? Isn't it obvious that one will think about the "round things" here while hearing "booba"? 😀
How dare you insult us superior dvorak users.
8:10 the like button didnt light up,
it never dose
yea...... same for me XD
lol yea i feel like ppl are lying about it
true... it usded to light up, WHY^'D YOU REMOVE SUCH AN AMAZING FEATURE TH-cam?!?!?!

Enrico: The first time I've learnt this I was like: I'm sorry, what??
me: EXACTLY
That thing is a gamechanger. Also, it works anywhere you can zoom to pinch (e.g. photos)

3:22 Many people get this wrong. There are 2 content-agnostic algorithms for iterating randomly:
- shuffle: randomly-permute a list, then start iterating from the beginning.
- pick: randomly selects the next item.
The sequence at 3:23 can *NEVER* be the result of a shuffle, unless it's the only item in the playlist, and you force the app to continue "shuffling" after the playlist is exhausted.
Rand-Pick doesn't care if it repeats a previous item or even the current item itself, so either sequence is possible under rand-pick.
Spotify and other apps use a non-agnostic form of shuffling, which is what makes them feel more unique
This combines everything I love: Tech, Design, Fun Facts, and a few life hacks. Peak content.
Ifkr
This might be irrational but when YTbers flash text on screen matching what they're saying randomly, while at the same time not having subtitles makes me a bit mad honestly. Hard-of-hearing people need subtitles and instead you spend time editing the flashy text. Imagine being deaf watching this, you get random slices of information without being able to access it. It's almost like teasing.
Skill issue tbh

The typewriter keyboard reason for QWERTY mentioned is actually a common myth and isn't true. There were many different keyboard layouts at the time and QWERTY just caught on the most.
It's not the WHOLE reason but it's certainly one reason that designers may have moved particular keys. It's likely a combination of moving more common keys to easier-to-reach places, preventing keys from getting jammed, and feedback from telegraph operators using it, before settling into its final arrangement with the Remington No. 2
Reminds me of the old days, when we had that little LED light on our gameboys and couldn't tell when the battery will suddenly be fully drained and you loose your progress in Pokemon Red Edition
With my (rechargeable) batteries in my GBC I could definitely tell. The LED gets dimmer the weaker the battery is. Once it goes out there's around five minutes left. And when it gets really close to cutting out the background whine in the audio noticeably changes and gets louder.
the searching for colors in youtube thumbnails is useful if you watched a video and want to find it again, but you forgot the name and only remember the thumbnail and the video itself.
Yeah, it is but;
If you accept the fact that the video you're searching on the "recommended" has a high chance of not showing up show up because TH-cam already showed you that video and you didn't click on it therefore TH-cam won't recommend it for a while because they think think you don't care about it. (Unless it's a really viral video and you watch similar videos, then TH-cam will force it everywhere for few days)
@@IsaacFoster.. i meant a video you have already watched, but you dont remember the name anymore, only the video itself.
@@ulz_glc well simply check the history
It's easier to find it on your history, TH-cam saves every video you watched.
@@jupiteriana. lol I forgot about it when writing the comment, eventhough I use that feature often myself.
But maybe someone who has it turned of, or set it to clear everything that was more than some months ago, but wanted to find the video again idk.
Maybe not so useful actually
I have a playlist of 200 songs in Spotify, I have 7 songs from one band I really like. Shuffle will GUARANTEE that at least 5 of these 7 songs are stuck together (or have like one song between) no matter how many times I shuffle.
How people can prefer this over "actual" random, I don't understand.
With the Google maps example. It's a matter of of fact that 99% of people who unbox their brand new old gadgets do not follow the tips and tutorials. When you keep these tips and tutorials on in the background. They literally teach you how to use every "hidden feature for each app and use case scenario" like "one handed use cases". That's why we have tons of utubers making bank with videos such as: "here are 1000 things you didn't know about your brand new old devices videos" etc etc.
It's a shame anyone who knows even just 1 little unique thing about a device is labeled as a "power user" or "nerd". People are willing to pay $1k for something, only to blatantly ignore 50% of its features. Being aware of the features is enough, there's no need to use them, but people are too lazy to learn even the simplest things
@@Rudxain people don't generally have a choice between buying a device that just does what they want to do on it and buying one that also does a million other things and has hidden tricks so naturally they'll just learn enough to achieve their basic goals, in the end a common enough user error is a design error and that's how we even got to this point of UI/UX design, otherwise we could just stick to archaic apps and huge manuals. Also guided learning just when you need it is far more effective than learning all the actions first when you've barely started using the product.
I think the video game trend of having random tips appear between screens (in loading screens) is good for any app with many button inputs, but it's very uncommon for some reason, even hovering over buttons to get a pop-up stating what they do is rare.
@@tubester358 > "don't generally have a choice"
I know, I'm one of them! My intention isn't that people should always learn about the full potential of their devices. I'm complaining about people installing duplicate features because they didn't RTFM. For example, installing a QR scanner when the system already has one 🤦.
> "guided learning"
I can relate. When I switched from VScode to Helix, I was overwhelmed by the key-binds and modes, so I only learned "intermediate-level" features. If I ever need an "advanced feature" I just read the docs/wiki or Google my use-case.
> "hovering over buttons"
I made a to-do app with accessibility in mind, so I made extensive use of the HTML `title` attribute! I really love how the UI ended up looking so clean, yet intuitive and descriptive
Not sure why we are throwing shuffle and random on the same pile. They should give both options, a true random and a shuffle
true random is pretty useless for that purpose honestly
enrico never realized he can actually remove i am an island boy from his playlist
Talking about the keyboard... Did you know that in France, we don't have the QWERTY layout but have the AZERTY layout instead ?
And certain countries use QWERTZ.
@@patrickreuvekampAs far as I know only German speaking ones
and azerty has even more useless keys like a dedicated key for ²
Noo, I thought we here in belgium were the only ones with azerty! I always order from Dutch stores when buying keyboard related stuff.
@@Shouko91 well, i guess Belgium is not the only one having AZERTY... 😅 ( And France too ! )
i like how you didn't give an answer to the battery percentage display. so now we will all walk around thinking it is some random number generator such that when it hit 0 it will kill your phone.
it usually does a decent job of estimating, as long as your battery's not completely trashed then the nearest 5-10% is usually accurate enough
@@LilacMonarch what if we are mistaking cause and effect? I mean, what if the display kills the battery?
@@shaunmodipane1 kill it how? checking voltage is super passive
13:25 Nice Tom Scott reference but he also made a followup where he admitted that that study was unable to be repeated
I really expected this to be another over edited mr beast style of exhausting video, but props to you for keeping the retention hacks and jump cuts to a minumum.
12:05 "Insert" does stuff (at least on windows and linux):
switch between replace characters and insert characters mode in text editors
some file managers (far manager, midnight commander, double commander, total commander) mark selected file and move selection down
also shift+insert is a shortcut for "paste from clipboard", which also works in windows console
@@user-uh2wc2yr3c
shift+insert is paste from CLIPBOARD in konsole, kate, cudatext and a lot more programs
shit+insert is paste from PRIMARY in xterm
ctrl+shift+insert is paste from PRIMARY in konsole, kate
PRIMARY is like another clipboard that most programs copy to when you select text and paste from when click mouse wheel
Dude, the sound effects you use in your videos are oddly satisfying lol I’m too lazy to find the time stamp, but that shutter sound after you talked about a “squircle” activated the ASMR side of my brain 😂
The insert key is extremely useful as it can also be used as an alternate shortcut for pasting (Shift-Insert) which on Windows is super useful if you are in a terminal session where CTRL-V would not paste.
This made me want something that’s the opposite of smart shuffle - a shuffle function that actually prefers similar songs to be played one after the other to prevent mood swings.
That's called making a playlist and listening to it in order. (But I'm someone who has lots of free time and enjoys building playlists. I know not everyone can/wants to put in that much work just to hear music that is mood-ually consistant.)
@@InventorZahran Playlists aren’t random, though. It’d be nice to still have some level of randomness in your listening experience (so that you wouldn’t know in advance what the next song is), just without the constant mood swings.
It's funny how Nokia of all companies was the first to use squircles throughout the entire UI design. Poor Meego.
in a lot of google apps can you double tab and slide to zoom and zoom out, google photos does also support it
Interesting video, thanks for sharing! The subscribe/like button highlight didn't work for me, maybe it takes some time to process it!
It didn’t work for me because I already liked and subscribed 😉
I literally had the Google Maps zooming problem today, THANK YOU for showing that. Now we just need a gesture for one-handed rotation
They could literally make it a sideways motion. Up down to drag, sideways to rotate.
Move touch in a circle...
@@Goodgu3963 exactly what i was thinking. vertical swipe to zoom, horizontal swipe to rotate
*insert Leonardo DiCaprio pointing meme
Tool- Lateralus
I think about these things so often, especially the text editing(in Xcode) and battery ones
I like how I can shoot a photo using double-power button for starting the camera and then volume for shooting. Really helpful in winter to not take off gloves. And comes quite naturally.
I guess the volume buttons could be hinted to be used for zoom while driving/navigating.
Double tap to zoom has been a thing for at least 10 years. First time I found out was in Pokémon Go back in 2016 (so 8 years ago) when I was spamming the screen to rotate the view and accidentally started zooming. But seeing that's 8 years ago now I'm surprised more people don't know about it. It's also not limited to just maps, but rather a thing for all apps which have a proper zoom feature, both android and apple.
This video is a masterpiece, I love your editing style, and how you explain things so clearly, keep up the good work!
3:52 seems like the draw with shuffle isn't "randomness" as much as it is "variety" in that case
Same thing when it comes to the loading bar and the Time shown until completion!
I feel like it’s just a psychological trick kind of like hitting the closed door button on elevator doesn’t do anything!
I found the out about the double tap like a few days ago actually but this was still really insightful nontheless
About text navigation and pressing arrow up/down:
Reality is that from programming standpoint, ALL of text are just arrays of characters.
So, a word "Hello" is just an array of letters "H", "e", "l", "l", and "o" in an array, they are placed under the order of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively. (so character "H" is 0, character "e" is 1, etc).
if you have multiple lines of text, these lines are also just multiple arrays of characters. So in other words - every paragraph of text is just a big list of characters.
You can get the position of where your cursor (the position where you insert a new character at) is located within the array of characters.
For example, let's say we have the two lines of text:
```
I did not hit her! I did not.
Oh hi Mark!
```
let's say our cursor is located right before the capital "M" in the word "Mark" on the second line. This means our cursor position is 5 (counting spaces, those are also characters). Then, if a user presses arrow key we could theoretically just move the cursor to the 5th character on the previous line (we can determine the end of a line by a break symbol
that isn't visible for end-users)... But reality isn't like this too! If we do exactly that we should end up right before the lowercase "n" in the word "not", but we somehow end up right after it?. It's actually a lot more complicated than that, but to be entirely honest it's not really font dependent either!
This stuff is interesting, i recommend reading about it :)
Texts were always that way, simply out :D
Dude, what camera are you using. The video is pristine in quality 👏🏼
Man I love your videos
google map zoom technique was something I just learned today... and I don't know what to think of it haha
at least the battery charge reported by the linux kernel isn't wrong and it's open source too
huh thats why my battery on linux is a little lower then windows some times intresting i always thought it was my driver support but no well im pretty sure the whole battery thing dossent really apply to laptops anyway mainly only phones unelss you install a linux distro on your pinephone or android phone
The laptop battery indications shown on Linux and Windows are both delivered from ACPI. This comes directly from the smart controller in the battery pack itself. This uses coulomb counting and I don't know why our host says this doesn't work.
11:42 if GPT-4 runs on server and not locally, can ai knowing what is on computer leak passwords or other private stuff?
Probably not your passwords, but if you open a confidential document in a pdf reader with built-in AI chatbot (such as Microsoft Edge) then yes it may be sent to their servers and you may have constituted an NDA breach or similar
@@alex15095Google does that so who cares
The tap and hold to zoom is also present in Google Drive PDF Viewer.
5:00 Actually, I love having this information; thank you!
I don't wanna listen to it even once
The finger gesture for google map doesn't miss an affordance. The double tap motion IS the affordance. This affordance is missing a trigger.
The explanation for qwerty that it was designed to reduce type bar clashing is dubious at best. If it was designed as such, they did a poor job, and yet made a surprisingly good job of making a good enough typing-at-speed layout. Not the best, sure. Good enough? Yes.
I remember my old LG phone showed battery charge wrong: when it's 90-100% it discharged slowly, but after that it went down the hill. Because of that i could see 50% go to 0 in a few minutes.
Always wondered, why did this happen. Now i know the answer, thanks!
Sometimes battery indicators are distorted like that on purpose. If the display shows fuller it makes it feel like the battery lasts longer. It's also more practical (at least with a pictorial depiction): You don't care about precision when it's full (the difference between 8 and 8.5 hours is negligible) but you do when it's low (the smaller difference between 15mins and 30mins is much more significant).
@@eDoc2020 well, it went down fast after getting below 90%. You see 95% and think "that's a lot, I have enough", and you are right. You see 80% and think the same, but in reality you have only an hour left if not less. Like, the upper 10% of the charge shown is in reality close to ~70% of my phone actual charge, and next 10% is another ~20%
Even worse, if the phone is charging and it shows 100% it may occur that it didn't fully charge. By trial and error I deduced that my phone would die faster if I stopped charging right after it hits 100%, instead it needed to stay at 100% for 20-40 minutes. So it probably was not intended distortion
@@Romashka_Sov I agree it wasn't intended in your case. It sounds like your old phone was using voltage-based estimation and the battery had high internal resistance. Or if it was always like this since new maybe the indicator was using the voltage profile of a different type of battery.
7:21 Still hard to do if you are driving a bike. Could be just + - buttons, like in other map apps.
The alphabetical keyboard layout is a pain to use especially when you're not using it with a keyboard and you have to select things on a screen, printer 10 foot interface Apple TV Roku Amazon fire stick etc. as much as the QWERTY keyboard layout was designed to prevent jammed typewriters it has and probably will be here for a long while as it works fairly well and a lot of people are used to it. There's a handful of videos of people trying different layouts and I can't remember which one it was that came to the conclusion that there's not a large difference between it and a optimized layout because an optimized layout will vary based on what is being typed.
There's even an interesting story around the Chinese adoption of the computer and US keyboard and attempts to create their own well avoiding and not avoiding killing off their language.
Onesto, sei uno dei pochi YT made in italy che ha un accento inglese digeribile, ma impara a non mangiarti le parole. A volte non si capisce nulla perché comunque hai quest'inflessione veramente (personalmente) aggressiva e da saputello. Sembra che mi stai costantemente cercando di vendere qualcosa, ma suoni come un venditore indiano di kebab che pensa di parlare un italiano fluentissimo e perfetto solo perché ogni tanto urla, fa il simpatico, e va talmente veloce che finisce per sbiasciare. Case in point: 9:49.
Good luck and keep up the good content.
i figured out the shuffle button on youtube was garbo. from a large playlist, it selects a group of like 8-10 songs (or perhaps an approximate amount of time) to play through "at random" but then it loops back through them after like 30 ish minutes lol
slightly frustrating, i have a whole playlist of 80+ songs and you choose 8-10 to loop through... gee, thanks.
clicking on a different video in the playlist causes it to change the whole set. usually.
WOW! I never knew about that doubla-tap-hold-and-drag to zoom in/out at Google Maps 😯
I'd argue that the one-handed zoom function in maps is dumb. JUST MAKE A ZOOM BUTTON
Lol the glowing subscribe button even works on my 'dumb' phone!
7:22
Actually, apple maps do allow for double tap gesture, just not as effective as Google though
I beg to differ pull to refresh is really annoying when you're trying to go up to the top of page and then all of a sudden it reloads wiping out what you've had typed in. Or you go back to see some thing and it was at the top and now you just lost what you were looking at.
My phone is exactly on 69% when I clicked the thumb nail lol
Your videos are always extremely interesting and edited well.
I actually really hate the Spotify shuffle. It spaces similar songs apart resulting in me roughly knowing what's next in small playlists. Which is the opposite of what a shuffle should do.
You can turn it off
@@Monkerey how
@@redcrafterlppa303 okay I'm shocked that they removed it. It definitely was an option 2-3 months ago but now Spotify changed the settings menu
Calling the insert key a relic from the past... yeah, seems to be a somewhat common opinion, considering my Laptop doesn't have one. I've changed the delete key for an insert key in software.
Now I'm out the delete key, which I normally do use, but insert is more important to me. Shift-Insert is used in a Linux terminal to paste from the primary selection. (i.e. what you have highlighted) It's more useful to me than deleting to the right of the cursor, though I do miss it.
What surprised me more was that the menu key didn't get a mention. I guess it's so rarely used, people don't even remember its existence. I've swapped mine out for a compose key.
The fact that the QWERTY layout was designed to avoid typewriter jamming is not 100% accurate.
Here is a nice video that also quickly shows QWERTY layout evolution:
th-cam.com/video/188fipF-i5I/w-d-xo.html
Also, there was indeed alphabetic order, that's why we have DFGHJKL following each other, just with E and I moved to the upper row in order for salesmen to be able to type TYPEWRITER more conveniently
Finally someone said it! I saw this video too a while ago and now I get really annoyed whenever people incorrectly share their "facts" about keyboard layouts. Your comment should be pinned.
what is the most effeicient and comfortable layout to type in lmao
Clever video; I didn't even realize you switched topics
13:50 Also only now I noticed that Bouba may seem weak while Kiki seems strong/useful. That might explain my distaste for soft corner interfaces.
You can use ^L to select the URL bar
the map double tap to zoom... yeah...
learned that from Pokemon go, still didn't realize it was a universal thing, i thought it only worked in pokemon go...
wow what a video, it's rear to see such well researched & actually informative video on youtube, keep it up bro.
. . . it's a rounded rectangle. Fight me.
This ad integration was so smooth and well placed. Nice planning!
0:15 lol the Pulp Fiction scene
10:04 I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as "complex commands we have to remember", nowadays (since decades ago) is just tab-key, `--help`, and `man`.
Copypastas aside, CLI apps still have their use. I believe GUIs and TUIs have different purposes according to their pros and cons. A camera app must be GUI, but a calculator works better as a CLI/TUI, just to give an example
for chrome users:
ctrl + t to open tab
ctrl + w to close tab
ctrl + n to open new window
ctrl + shift + t to open last tab which you closed
ctrl + shift + n to open incognito window
there are many more useful ones, but PLEASE START USING THESE
And another very nice one, middle click a link to open in a new tab
I swear, if you have a mouse and you RIGHT CLICK A LINK AND THEN CLICK OPEN IN NEW TAB, IT PAINS ME
anyway good luck
do people not know these
As a trackpad user, I must add that also simply Ctrl+click opens the link in a new tab in the background. Saved countless hours
also shift + tab to cycle between tabs
@@asdfghjklqzwx sadly, yes
And it pains me when someone fumbles around with a mouse to open or close tabs
@@faccc yes
3:42 that's odd. I seem to get the same kinds of songs grouped together when my spotify shuffles.
If they are going to make it less random I would prefer they kind of go over my watch history and load up the songs I dont tend to skip first.
You can also do it with maps
i did not plan to watch this entire vid, but the thumbnail made me curious. well done mate, i really am stunned by this info. i don't normally sub to tech channels, but ya got me..
TH-cam when my parents walk in: 13:27
15:32 Finally, text without the blue and orange stuff around it
*Maury:* When asked what was the battery level, you said 69%. The lie detector determined that was a lie.
Long time I don`t see a smart guy talking things that most would never think about it.
11:27 -Similar- A bit inferior functionality can be achieved with PowerToys for Windows with Alt + Space.
Alt+Space is the standard Windows key combo for opening the system menu. A utility that overrides this functionality would become very annoying.
@@eDoc2020 The shortcut can be remapped, also PowerToys isn't just that functionality. It has other functionalities such as Color Picker, Keyboard Manager (which allows for remapping of keys and shortcuts), Mouse Utilities (such as Find My Mouse) and File Locksmith (which allows for seeing what program is using a file and terminating it).
I love that you are a fan of John Mayer. I saw a few references in this video.
8:30 that's cool it's just too bad it doesn't work. Maybe this is a chrome only thing so much for web standards. What they really need is that plus whenever you say look in the Doodley Doo description since nobody seems to look there or put good information in there all the time to bring attention to it.
The highlighted subscribe button? I often get that in Firefox but didn't on this video (probably because it was mentioned too much). The feature also might not be rolled out to all users.
Big plus for the TOOL in the Spotify App :)
Great video! @enricotartarotti, what font face are you using for the text in this video? Thanks!
Another cool trick... on the TH-cam app... you can hold down the currently playing video to speed it up to 2x until you release your finger
This is in the standard desktop web client, too. My crappy laptop clicks when I pick it up which has resulted in me fast-playing while holding it.
What can I do to prevent me from listening to Island boy ONCE ? I feel im at risk of serious exposure that I may not be able to cope mentally ,
Lol, nowadays it's much harder to listen to all the songs [from a discography] in order. It's extremely difficult on streaming services.
I would absolutely switch to a faster keyboard layout... if I was able to switch the keyboard on every single device I own.
Desktop keyboards and smartphone keyboards might be easy to switch, but I've never seen a tablet or laptop keyboard that isn't in QWERTY format.
Actually the QWERTY keyboard is just a modified alphabetical keyboard
4:15 jokes on you, I have an iPhone SE 3rd Gen!
"5:45 pull to refresh is just so natural" - not for jerry rig everything - he complained about it when he "tried" iPhone, even though it's the same on Android.
did this man really wake up and say: "these are not rounded squares, they are sqircles"
Lol
7:36 you made a mistake it is not missing an affordance it is missing a mark. The design of everyday things book
Wow got this video in my feed and it's soo pretty to watch
spotify shuffle still sucks even when not "random" i would honestly prefer the comfort of knowing it's truly random rather than have whatever spotify's algo is
Bravo Enrico! Another amazingly well written and informative video!
Thank you! I immediatly downloaded Raycast
Batteries are one of the most important components of our tech and the most understated. Yes, we say the most important is the CPU or the GPU... those are important and have a lot of development, but those don't work without electrical current... so are useless.
Li-ion is the battery of our tech... but they have 2 problems:
1) They heat when you are using them, and they could burn themselves when you are using your tech (so all our tech products have circuits to prevent that)
2) Have a limited lifespan, around 500 cycles, which seems a lot. But our cell phones use all the change in a day, so if the phone is at 40% or 20%, we charge at night to have a full charge in the morning. So if our phones use all the charge every day, 500 cycles will be over in 2 years. So in 2 years, you will change your battery or your cellphone.
I have enough knowledge of batteries to know how they take voltage and temperature measurements; if I did that every day, I would know how they are; that takes time, dedication, and a Ph.D. But the computational power of our cell phones is higher than our computers of 20 years ago...
So on the iPhones ( I don't know other companies), Apple spends a lot of information on the actual usage of your battery, the temperature, the brand, and the data of thousands of users to correct the battery charge in your screen... It is not a guess; it is an algorithm with a lot of variables to give only 2 numbers (the charge and the number of cycles of your battery) to give you the right to decide: a) I will still be with my phone b) I will change the battery c) I will change the phone... but not only that, thousands of users give a lot of data, so the iPhones also know the Amperage that they use every moment and connect or deactivate circuits to increase the life of your battery. But the primordial function of those that don't communicate changes is the usefulness of your cellphone to you.
So after years of usage of it if you think that your iPhone was a good value, you will buy another one of the same brand.
Android phones use open software, so if you want to use that feature, you will share it with all the companies, and they improve its value for the money you spend developing that system. This is an advantage for the user but not for the company. Also, if you don't want to include those sensors, that feature is no longer appropriate for you, so big companies like Samsung pay for personalized Android versions.
4:28 the apple accessory design guidelines show the iphone display as a radius, only the body of the phone is a squircle
I don't know how Spotify does shuffle but it doesn't work well and I don't know if Apple changed how shuffle worked on the iPod shuffle.
But the shuffle functionality built into iTunes version 10 and below is crazy and I wish (I think) I knew how they did it.
I know it's probably pseudo random but not only is it picking songs randomly it's picking good songs that go together and in some cases fit my mood which is scary. Of course I also have 10+ days worth of music.
iTunes uses the "Genius" feature in the shuffle mode. It's probably more complicated but I know it tries to match genres of song.
@@eDoc2020I actually have never used Genius. I forget which version they added it to but I never enabled it. I've only ever used the straight up shuffle function that's been built-in since Mac OS X 10.4 I forget which version of iTunes that is. I stopped updating after that version 10. my entire iTunes library is still on my old computer, and synced with my iPod. On my newer computers I'll just look it up in Spotify and if it's not there I'll remote or try and find it on TH-cam. My iPhone doesn't have any music on it just Spotify and ringtones that I converted.
I'm sure the algorithm changed when they added that function, yah Genius was supposed to be more artist relevant playlist organized mood arranged.
I have put it on shuffle and let it go for a few hours and hardly ever once I had to skip some thing because it would just be like hit after hit.
Me as a linux user using command line daily and using the keyboared to update,install apps,and drivers and enjoying it
Maps doesn't work for me. It just zooms in wheen I double tap, it doesn't change into one-handed zoom mode
I'm sorry, but text looks so much worse on a mac, it took me a lot to get used to it and every time I use windows I am amazed by how sharp the text looks! On macOS it's just blurry, I find it fatiguing not being able to focus on it. They moved away from subpixel rendering when they introduced "more space" resolutions, as it just applies a larger resolution downsampling on a smaller one, otherwise the text would have weird colored borders
it's a matter of taste, it's the classic sharpness vs smoothness question. there's never a perfect answer everyone will like
@@LilacMonarch I guess people can have different taste, but to me it just seems Apple wanted people not to use third party monitors. To me already on retina display text looks hazy, but try to connect a mac to a normal 24" full HD and text just looks terrible. The perfect thing would be keeping subpixel rendering as an option, like it was the case a couple of macOS versions ago
@@karellen00 yeah they definitely don't care about other monitors. apple hates anything not made by them lmao
