that is hard to ignore once noticed. It's like a FedEx logo. The effect is noticeable on the iPad Mini 6 when the device is used in portrait orientation, leading to complaints from customers over the past three years. Shortly after the iPad Mini 6 was launched, an Apple spokesperson told Ars Technica that quote-unquote jelly scrolling was normal behavior for iPads with LCD displays.

Given that LCDs refresh as well, line by line, there's a tiny delay between when the lines at the top and the lines at the bottom are refreshed.

Last episode, I was wondering, hey, is this 15, 17, whatever minute short film, Submerged, is that available to watch, or at least in part, during a Vision Pro demo? Kevin Markham writes in, I did a Vision Pro demo on October 14, which was apparently four days after Submerged was released.

I was indeed able to watch Submerged during the demo, though it was a much shortened version, perhaps three minutes long, that showed the crew trying to save themselves from water rushing into the submarine. Spoiler alert. Uh, there's no indication that I was watching an excerpt from a larger, excuse me, longer film.

Rather, I thought it was just a random movie like scene designed specifically to show off the capabilities of the vision pro. We had a couple of people write in later to say something similar. Um, I've also heard, or we've also heard a couple of reports that, um, that apparently the demonstrations are far less on the rails than they were originally.

If you recall, we were all talking about how, I don't remember, I don't think, Marco, you did a demo, but certainly John and I did, and they were very on the rails. Like, you should do this, you should do that, you should do this, you should do that. Let me show you this, let me show you that.

And now, apparently, I think they still have a bit of a script, but they're much more willing to let you experiment, as per a handful of people who've written it.

Oh, yes. And speaking of, there is another sizzle reel, this time for basketball for the NBA All-Star Weekend, which was, I presume, many months ago. This is similar to the Super Bowl thing, which as a football fan, despite the fact that it's a terrible sport in a zillion ways, as a football fan, I loved the Super Bowl sizzle reel.

even though I didn't really have any particular love for either of the teams. I am a former basketball fan. I just haven't really paid attention in a long, long time. And this is a reel for the all-star weekend. Really freaking good. It's really good. And this is, this is the, the, I don't know, not dichotomy, but the, the, the issue with vision pro is that when it's good, it's,

It's so freaking good. It really, really is. But the problem is it's five minutes at a time, 15 minutes at a time. If you happen to watch a movie and if you're plugged into the wall, it's also really good. If you're doing the Mac virtual display thing, it is incredibly good. But I don't know if it's $3,500 good. We don't need to relitigate that now.
