Most likely Tuesday. I wouldn’t rush to get it for at least a day. Let everyone else be the Ginny pigs

I agree. It will allow you extra time to learn how to spell "guinea pigs". Yes, probably Tuesday, which means Wednesday for us closer to the International Date Line.

the fact that this took so long to make makes me very wary of updating fist day...

Seems to me they've tested 14.5 to death, but I guess whichever perspective floats your boat...

“ App Tracking Transparency “

I haven’t upgraded any hardware in five years, mainly because my current products are still so functional and in great condition. This year I’m buying back into the Apple ecosystem just because of this!

Lol a vaccine was literally developed and deployed before Apple could figure out a method of unlocking a phone with a mask on.

Here in Finland 138 people who were just vaccined got covid still and 2 vaccines is already banned in Finland.

Not to take hostage of the initial post. The vaccine doesn’t repel covid. People can still get covid after the vaccine, you just won’t die from it.

Same with everyone else. Tuesday is more likely but today would be lovely.

This is more likely to be tomorrow (Tues) as Apple team prep servers etc on Monday

I thought it was an obscure Harry Potter reference😏

So far off topic
Key word being just... also official news says no vaccines have been banned. J&J isn’t shipping to Europe or Finland, Astra is being used for over 65 only for now. This is rumor control 🙂

You do realize there’s been many betas and a golden master precisely for this reason? The guinea pigs have already been utilized

Edit for emphasis

there is betas and golen releases for every software released out there now days, but once released bugs all over the place.

Unlocking a totally ruined FaceID in the time of the apocalypse with an Apple Watch?!

YES PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF MY SANITY.

we told you TouchID is better.

Just make sure that you put up the big "14.5 is out now!" post on the main page one or two hours before it's actually released again. Those two hours of people saying where they live and that it hasn't been released there yet always make my day. /s

to be fair, all online servers are accessed world wide, this is what makes the internet...the international network. So it makes no sense that place X get it first before place Y.

Do not further explain it, I know they probably have servers world wide and you download from the closest to you to distribute the traffic load, but they can also upload to all of them simultaneously.
