Apple to Live Stream June 13 WWDC Keynote

[MH01]

I'll just jump on MR afterwards and get the summary. The keynotes are so drawn out and uninspiring these days. yup the Apple Music keynote still haunts me, and I'd eddy goes on stage again.....no thanks

 

[bbbb4b]

Gah these are always the worst!

Naw. The HALO demo 1999 was one of the greatest things ever before seen. (Then MS bought HALO, and it was all over)

Brushing up on my Mandarin!

Every damn time...hahaha, and yet, I still find it funny

 

[CaTOAGU]

First they gotta release Macs that can support VR.

Well phones can support VR, it's just Oculus and Vive that require ridiculous specs. I seriously doubt they'll release VR stuff though, the tech is still in its infancy. I was listening to a podcast the other day in which one of the presenters was using a Vive, she had to remove her sofa from the living room to make the whole thing work.

Blocked off the time at work. Booked a conference room. Charging my ipad. Pop corn cooking. Did I miss anything?

Beer, punching bag.

Hello, my name is Tim Cook. I killed Apple.
Prepare to be disappointed.

Freely paraphrased from: The Princess Bride

Oh, the drama...!!

Hello, Dark Mode. Is it me you're looking for?

Before clicking to read the comments, I knew this one would be on top! Thanks for not disappointing and keeping up the traditions.

 

[bbrks]

I have no expectations whatsoever...only the usual Apple gibberish ...but, again as usual, there is just nothing out there, that can stop me from using my iPhone and my Mac for many years to come....

Yes - you need to have a supply of uppers handy so you don't fall asleep when Timmy starts his droning "amazing pipeline" monologue.

 

[BigMar89]

I'm starting to get pumped for this event! iOS 9 has been much more stable for me than the past two versions, but that might also be my 6s loaded up with RAM. So hopefully we can get some great new features this year. Rinse and repeat! Hoping for Dark Mode API, Siri API along with contextual AI improvements, iPad Pro productivity enhancements, NFC API for HomeKit at the very least, a HomeKit app, more 3D Touch integration, PIP for iPhone, and some customization for settings such as Control Center, default apps, scheduling night shift and do not disturb for different days, and removing built-in apps.

I have a 6 Plus and each update has got worse for me and I want to believe it's all because of the measly 1GB of RAM that it has. My phone just cannot handle my social media multitasking and the apps just start slowing down along with my phone getting ridiculously hot.

I'm ready 1.25 hrs of Apple music...featuring Eddie Cue.

 

[Erichatch101]

They desperately need to update the Mac Mini. The 2014 is a piece of salty garbage and i'm languishing with my aging 2011 Mini as my media server. I made a hackintosh to bridge the performance gap. If it didn't refuse to play DRM iTunes Movies, I would go full hack. There is no reason an all in one with a 300 dollar skylake processor, an anemic mobile gpu and 32gb of cheapo ddr 4 should cost 4400 bucks.

 

[Schizoid]

GTX 1080s in a Mac Pro!

...then I woke up

 

[R3k]

Yes - you need to have a supply of uppers handy so you don't fall asleep when Timmy starts his droning "amazing pipeline" monologue.

Tweaking through the keynote, sounds like a plan.

 

[bluespark]

The text at the bottom definitely signals that the focus is on software, not hardware. Would love to be surprised, though.

 

[EthanLMT]

Can we talk about this one event they have scheduled?

 

[Chupa Chupa]

Obviously WWDC is a developers conference, but the keynote since the days is been live blogged, broadcast live online or available for streaming later in the day, has always skewed away from being too technical and served a wider general audience. So what's with this years super geek coder theme?

 

[Populism]

With live streaming, we will all learn about the new watchbands together. No one will have an advantage.

To what is this (Mandarin) referring, by the way?

 

[kazmac]

If I remember, I'll check here from time to time. If something Mac-centric is announced (beyond the new OS), I'll hang around if not...I'll just check this site during my real lunch hour (usually after these end.)

 

[jdillings]

To what is this (Mandarin) referring, by the way?

It's from the disastrous live stream of the iPhone 6 announcement:

When the stream did work, the Mandarin translation was accidentally included over the top of the English audio, and the stream was often incredibly pixelated.

[Kobayagi]

To what is this (Mandarin) referring, by the way?

Well, a few years ago when Apple started to livestream their keynotes, someone messed up the sound on one. We couldn't hear the real voices in the presentation, but a actual live translation in Mandarin.

Since then, everybody is expecting them to mess it up again and is ''brushing up on their Mandarin."

I'll be there with the bells on.
