Although we have surely become more comfortable with cameras around us more often, if I remember correctly what freaked people out was that there wasn’t a visible indicator when Google Glass was recording.

Had Google added a tiny red LED next to the camera, it would’ve been different.

Isn’t it funny that every tech commenter was like “Apple would have to re-engineer their whole iMessage stack if they want to cut off access to Beeper Mini”?

(Longest question ever, I know)

So I’ve been playing around with the new feature on tvOS to use my iPhone camera to see oneself on the tv screen when singing along Apple Music tracks. But I can’t for the life of me figure out how to record what’s on the screen.

Is it even possible? If so, how?

Thanks.

Before iOS 17, if I was watching something on my Apple TV, both my wife and I would get a Now Playing widget on our iPhones' lock screens.

Also, if I was using the Remote app, when going to the home screen, the Now Playing controls would go to the Dynamic Island.

This has always been pretty handy because we barely have to use the Apple TV physical remote, since everything was easy to control from our iPhones.

Well, with iOS 17 I can't seem to find how to make my iPhone/Apple TV do the same thing -- not to mention that now it takes a good 1-2 seconds for the Remote app to connect to the Apple TV.

Does anybody know whether these features are gone for good on iOS 17?

PS: When something is playing on the Apple TV, I do get a notification on my iPhone with the Apple TV logo that says what's playing, although even though it has a down arrow, it's not clickable. It's just sitting there.

Your sacrifice is appreciated, mate.

Funnily enough, I don’t think there are any visible Apple logos in the AirPods Max.

I think you hit the nail. Although other members also read from the teleprompter at some point (such as Linus), Terren was doing it awkwardly the whole time, you can tell he’s not used to be in front of a camera.

Also about the younger generation being too soft, which I believe ties with your first pint.

To be fair though, sincerity without empathy is just assholeness. There are way to many people justifying their asshole behaviors with “being sincere”.

Ever since getting into arguments with strangers online stopped being fun for me, I try to be extremely polite to people when I’m asking a probably confrontational question.

On the internet, a good amount of time people asking questions in comments sections are often just trying to show others how much they know about something in the most passive aggressively way possible, so it better to always be extra clear that you’re trying to engage on a healthy discussion.

That’s what you get from being the most popular instance I guess.

All in all, I would like to have a bit less circlejerk and start having more diverse content.

Don’t get me wrong, all the beans and old memes is helping a lot with keeping the platform alive and with constant activity, but I think at some point we need to start posting more stuff and make Lemmy more friendly and attractive to newcomers.

Elon’s mom didn’t give him permission, so it ain’t happening. I’m not even joking lol
