What “simple instructions” are you talking about?

But packed with awesome 8-bit video

More junky 8-bit video? YES PLEASE

What are you talking about? I didn’t say that there was anything wrong with HEIF.

And you need to learn to read. There IS recompression WHEN YOU COPY THE IMAGES OFF YOUR DEVICE. The setting is...

Or, "Apple and an incompetent testing organization team up to screw students."

Because space is at such a premium in 2020?

Aerospace and defense contractors are also probably still using COBOL. MAC-PAC/D is all COBOL, folks.

Are you a mime?

OH COOL! Do "trapped in a box!"

Now do "pulling on a rope!" Or, or... "umbrella in a windstorm!"

Making it totally unnecessary, since MPEG-4 is already such a container.

They don't necessarily need to accept the HEIF format, but there's no excuse for not promptly informing the user that it's not accepted.

Talk about amateur hour.

I was hoping this was going to be about Apple's inexcusable failure to encode images RIGHT-SIDE UP. Sadly, it's about yet another gaffe.

Apple: Trying to save money by jacking users without their...

"there are more than 800 menu items in Photoshop!"

And yet it still lacks one of the most basic for apps of this type: "Paste as new image."

Same. I shitcanned Adobe's bug-addled mess finally and now rely on Affinity Photo, Designer, and BlackMagic Resolve.

Affinity's products suffer from some truly defective UI design, but they're...

Seriously? Just NOW? And still no ProRes Raw.

Way to cement your image as a dinosaur, Avid.

What is the relevance of those two?

The ones that change the color of everything in the room without being told to sure are.

Don't declare it over yet. Chances are these new keyboards are still going to suck the big wad.

Apple only "fixes" things grudgingly and half-assedly. They're petty, petty children. Let's just...

Windows 10 is a pathetic mess. Even the installation procedure is riddled with glaring defects, and Office is nearly unusable.

The UI is full of invisible controls and more major defects, and...

Yep. It's a disgrace. Not to mention that "Flexgate" is STILL going on. Current "top-of-the-line" MacBook Pros are still failing after a year of light use, because of a defective flex connector...

The EMOJI BAR!
