#askATP - this might sound sacrilegious to the ‘no modes’ ethos of modern OS design but could a “pro” mode and a “standard” mode toggle be the answer to ipadOS’s interface conundrum and iPad’s identity crisis?

One as simple and clutter-free as the phone and the other packed with features, options, and interface options/window metal, perhaps? Standard Mode on by default on the mini, iPad, and Air, Pro Mode the default on the iPad Pro only. Am I mad to think this?

When do the ATP crew think that Apple will ship a macOS that drops Intel support? Is 2025 the year, five years after the M1 intro? #AskAtp

Is the issue for Apple’s struggles with AI/Siri that it’s not a ‘product’ in the physical sense?

Another Ping / iTools / MobileMe / Maps etc legacy that company just seems to struggle with. #askatp

@HiraethPod Perfect Sunday listening this for anyone interested in the history or politics of Wales.

Martin’s the best around to explain why popular understanding of difficult subjects is often politicised or adopted for a cause.

Had quite a lot of PTSD from your discussion about Pixelmater on @atpfm as I was one of those post production professionals who built my entire expertise around final cut studio (including Shake, Color, Soundtrack Pro, FCP, Motion, DVDStudioPro etc) that all became almost instantly worthless as Apple cancelled most of it in 2011 with no warning, and no replacements with their name.

I’d love them to do ProApps again but would never trust them not to repeat the process.

@DrEdBridges @davidoclubb good to see the Wazz is back. Video to follow if you want to catch up!

Cracking presentation by Dr Jac Larner of the Wales Governance Centre today about the UK General Election 2024 in Wales.

Pretty shocking stuff about intergenerational resentment between parties and the effect of the mortality rate on party support 😬 #Wales #Cymru
