I don’t think many people are seeing the big picture here, and that’s Apple design direction is moving in a very coherent direction.

Take for example the Vision Pro. This is going to be a small corollary, but hard to miss if you’ve used the feature: Presenter View. They’re trying to get you used to the notion that you can share a screen at the same time someone is looking at your entire camera feed. Now add Continuity Camera, and you’ve got LIDAR that allows you to make sharp defined border cuts between you and the floating screen behind you. This is a very small example.

But it’s obvious the direction they’re going. They’re aiming to mesh ordinary waking reality with a computerized one, aka augmented reality.

People put a lot of stops on this idea, but it is peak smartphone times, and the obvious next step is a movement from the phone to making their forms of AR more usable and commonplace. If Jobs were still here, they’d probably have done privacy-respecting lightweight AR glasses with full day batteries already.

ESL learners will have a hard time with this one

You’re vastly overestimating people’s computer literacy

Thank you! Glad to see someone agreeing for once, on this

You give your father a Nokia 3310, get yourself a Switch or DS if you care about emulation so much, they’re cheap these days. Problem solved
