Apple Maps via iOS6 screenshot.

Bei dem schönen Sonnenschein heute musste ich mal die Kamera meines neuen iPhone5's ausprobieren. Die Szene wurde mit der in iOS6 neuen Panoramafunktion geschossen. Das Bild wurde dann noch etwas bearbeitet.

Cosa ci può essere di meglio di un weekend organizzato all'ultimo minuto a Londra?

E lasciamo perdere se è piovuto sempre, ma non quei temporali da un quarto d'ora e basta, no... quella pioggerellina leggera per tutto il giorno con un cielo cielo grigio che pare non finire mai. E lasciamo pure stare se la macchina fotografica ha avuto problemi e non sono riuscita a scattare una foto decente. E anche il nuovo aggiornamento iOs6 sul telefono sta creando non pochi inconvenienti e metà delle foto che ho fatto sono sparite....

Londra è sempre meravigliosa e non me ne stancherò mai! Ma dovete accontentarvi di quello che c'è... quindi per oggi questa scattata con Hipstamatic, lente John S, pellicola Ina's1969.

(Però ci sono anche io... sul Gatwick Express :-))

 

What could be better than a weekend getaway at the last minute in London?

And never mind if it rained forever, but not those rainstorms by a quarter of an hour and that's it, no ... that drizzle all day long with a gray sky that seems to never end. And the camera had problems and was not able to take a decent picture. And the new update iOs6 on the phone is creating many problems and half of the photos I took are gone ....

London is always wonderful and I never get tired! But you have to settle for what there is ... Today this, taken with Hipstamatic, John S lens, film Ina's1969.

(But there are even I.... on the Gatwick Express :-))

 

RAINDROPS KEEP FALLING ON MY HEAD

  

took hours to update, oh well.

Lake Sammamish, Washington.

 

EOS 3

20MM f3.5

FPP Svema Blue Sensitive

Observations:

 

Top Bar:

– The time is different. Almost 1.5 hours later.

– The alarm clock now can “ring”. (bells added on either side – an example of iOS7 actually containing more detail than iOS6)

– Better WiFi reception; however the signal waves seem to be smaller.

– Electricity is applied to the battery now by its positive pole, no longer in the center (which makes sense).

 

Apps:

Safari: The cardinal direction stays the same

Contacts: Stronger focus on Mr. ‘Anonymous’; I suspect inspiration coming from the new Starbuck’s logo. 33% less letters. No spiral binding (loose leaf, I assume)

App Store: Now slower than light speed; flat brush has been replaced by pointed brush.

Calendar: curve complexity of figure ‘1’ increased.

Photos: now up to 8 colors!

Maps: The driver no longer takes the suicidal route off the bridge straight on 280; prefers to take the on-ramp. (Also, departs from different location.)

Settings: More fine-grained control possible. However, the gears don’t seem to hook into each other; so I doubt the effectiveness.

Clock: The time did not stop at 10:15 today!

Camera: A paradox. iOS6 – a lens without a camera. iOS7 – a camera without a lens.

Calculator: Still no division

Notes: no longer using recycled paper; it seems the notepad now has a better perforation.

Podcasts: seemingly the same icon; but I am sure it has been redesigned.

Messages: slightly more content possible

: “WHITE TELEPHONE” glyph redesigned. FaceTime now needs own app.

Weather: Stormy times ahead!

 

Bottom bar:

Bottom platform seems to have been tilted an approximate 60° toward the screen. This is why it now seems ‘flat’.

 

Phone: more ergonomic design, probably easier to hold.

Mail: the rounded corner at the bottom of the envelope adds an uncomfortable, unnecessary detail not present in iOS6.

Music: Interesting visualization of two beamed eighth-notes dipped in chocolate.

I've updated my ancient White MacBook with a spanking new MacBook Air. Savings on the processor upgrade paid for the new Apple bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Finally, I've jumped on the iPhone bandwagon and picked up a 2nd hand iPhone 4S with iOS6….

Brand new day!

 

Thanks iPhone4S(2011/11/03 iOS5.1.1~2014/10/04 iOS6.1.3)

 

Hello iPhone6(2014/10/04 iOS8.0.2~ )

 

.

 

First try at using the panorama function in iOS6.

Updating macs, iphones, ipads, apple tv’s… Sometimes security concerns and bugs need updating all devices in the house…

 

Oh my god!!!!!

 

Just wanted to buy a DAC for my Mac, ended with a little more than a dac.

 

First when iFi micro IDSD entered the system, was UAU!!!!, the biggest upgrade any computer needs to really listen to music.

 

Then why not, asked to try an iFi iUSB power supply, and the sound became a little more clean and focused.

 

Then asked to listen to iTube, at first as a pre amp receiving the sinal from my iFi iDSD dident liked, the sound was less dynamic and not very interesting, for a moment I did not liked the combination, then, tried the option of using it as a buffer of the iDSD, and I can not believe, another upgrade to the soundstage, think of a 3D image of a band in a stage that is bigger, more real and well defined, the wall in front of me disappeared.

 

This is gonna ruin my bank account.

 

I tried some audioquest cables, but when, like in the separate audiophile gear world of audio, it’s better stay in the brand then combining various brands, normally that does not result in a positive way.

 

Then the Gemini cable came, for the price was a global refinement of the sound, the texture of the instruments was more real, and why not the mercury, this one was a big problem for me, only 1 meter, when I needed 1,5 meters, had to make some changes in my system to use a one meter cable.

 

The iFi cables resulted in a synergy not easy to archive in a system.

 

iFi products are a big surprise for me, I have more pleasure listem to music now, then I was trying to archive audio nirvana some years ago, when brought a levinson 383 to work with my nautilus 805 and 804, with a linn unidisk 1.1, and kimber select 2021 and 3033, the sound was good, but not right.

 

I am not saying that the iFi products with the harman gla55 are superior to a levinson, and a b&w 804, but they present the music in a way that is more pleasant to me, and the combination of their products result in perfection, lot´s of detail, good dynamics, great presentation.

 

And the iRack, the quality of this iFi iRack is impressive, I love the iRack.

 

The only downside, is… After starting to hear high definition audio, when I listened to an ACC 256K was depressing, even aiff extracted from CD shows the limitation of 16bit 44.1, after entering in the 24 bit world and DSD, it’s amazing what we were not listening in the music.

 

Listen to Sound Liaison recordings, they are impressive.

 

And for listening real audio, you need to use a software like Bitperfect or Audirvana. Bitperfect is amazing for the price, Audirvana it’s a little better for now.

 

Best Regards

This Asus router is a good one, the first of is kind.

 

Works best with AsusWRT Merlin firmware for Asus Routers.

 

Great developer by the way.

 

I did not test it fully, but it´s very stable, and has a lot of control on what is appening on yout network, but Asus Routers are allways a safe buy, and apple routers do not work with my fiber optics net provider.

 

Apple needs to implement new protocols their routers…

2013.07.26 - Replaced under warranty w/new unit

A friends iMac 2012 HD Upgrade, a lot more easy to repair than the latest iMacs.

 

Still, this i7 iMac is a great machine, hope the new hard drive lasts more than the apple one.

 

Many thanks to Mario for the photos.

 

You can contact Mario if you need MAC low price mac repairs in Portugal on is facebook profile www.facebook.com/mario.r.vasconcelos.35/about

 

After warrantie this repair would cost a lot of money on an apple service provider, but with the help of a apple tech repair friend, the total cost was the price of an hard drive only.

 

120 Euros…

   

This was shot using the iPhone 5 panorama feature. No additional processing was added.

In September 2012 this place was in the news because of technical glitch on Apple's mapping software led to some confusion as to where Dublin airport is located. Dublin airport is located on the north side about six miles from the city centre. But on the iOS 6 map application its position is given as a farm Airfield Farm in Dundrum which is three miles south of the city. According to some reports Apple has not just been confusing airports. It has also misplaced the Dublin zoo which is situated in Phoenix Park in the west of the city but the company's mapping mistake means it is showing up in Temple Bar - an enclave in the city centre, full of bars and nightclubs. Of course at night Temple Bar is a bit of a zoo.

 

Airfield Farm & House - Dundrum

 

In 1893, a Dublin solicitor named Trevor Overend purchased an 18th century farmhouse. The property was eventually inherited by sisters Letitia and Naomi Overend, they lived there their entire lives and enjoyed working on the farm and gardens. Prior to their death they set up the Airfield Trust, leaving this unique estate for educational and recreational purposes.

 

Today this farm known as Airfield is a place of escape, discovery and learning which celebrates farming and gardening through a range of exciting learning and cultural programmes.

 

Trevor T. L. Overend, was a successful Dublin solicitor. He was born in Portadown in 1847 but moved to Dublin in 1855 with his parents and five siblings. In 1879 he married Lily Butler and they had two surviving daughters Letitia (b. 1880) and Naomi (b. 1900). Trevor and Lily Overend first lived at 12 Ely Place, later the business premises of 'T.T.L. Overend & Co.'. In 1894 they purchased 'Airfield' in Dundrum from a member of the Jury family of Jury's Commercial & Family Hotel. Letitia and Naomi Overend grew up surrounded by a close circle of aunts, uncles and family friends. They were particularly close to their mother's sisters and grandmother, Letitia Butler, who lived in Sandymount, to their cousins, the Bartons of Donegal, and to Tommy Overend (President of the Calcutta Stock Exchange). Both girls were educated at home by a governess although Naomi did finish her education at Alexandra College. In their early years they spent their days having lessons, playing tennis of golf, visiting friends with their mother, walking with their father and enjoying various bike rides, tea parties, fancy dress, charity fêtes and the theatre. Encouraged by their parents (and a twenty year age gap!) they led quite separate and independent lives although they always remained close, enjoying a similar sense of humor and determination. They were united in their interest in the house and farm at Airfield, their, dogs, friends, and travel. In 1913, Letitia Overend started her training with St. John's Ambulance.This began a lifetime of work and friendship within the association. In 1955 she was awarded their highest honour becoming Dame Justice of the Order Of St. John and in 1961 she proudly accepted an Honorary Doctorate from Trinity College in recognition of her public services. On the farm the family's great love was the Dromartin herd of Jerseys. The animals were named after different characters in the Gilbert & Sullivan operas and were regular prize winners at the RDS Spring Show. Besides the herd, horses were kept for ploughing and transport, eggs, vegetables, and milk were sold and there was always a large population of cats and dogs.
