  • Just to say I would love for an iPad Pro to replace my MacBook, but without root file system access or a bash/zsh terminal it wouldn’t work.

    Does the new multitasking stuff and liquid glass work well on the base iPad that’s a couple of hundred bucks?

    Can’t justify having two super powerful four figure devices that have such overlap otherwise (for me).















  • I will go ahead and say that they’ve clearly gone for a “quality over quantity” approach, which could pay off over the long run.

    That said I suspect they’ve not “tried” many projects and basically written blank cheques to famous actors (now “producers”) to basically pay to win.

    However a lot of their stuff is fairly mediocre, just with some big names attached to them.

    There’s probably like three shows and two movie I have actually watched on there, and according to this article I’m probably not the only one.

    So yeah, it’s definitely not worth the money.

    Also I hate how they’ve made the app a “one stop shop for all streaming services. It would be cool if it did collate all the content from my streaming subscriptions, but unfortunately most of the stuff is just an upsell to some service I don’t want.

    Perhaps the purpose of it is really just affiliate links!
