You mean a "lie." Calling a notched iPhone "all-screen" is a bit of a stretch. This is just straight upfalse.
Forgive the humor in a HN comment, but because of you I shall add "upfalse" to my working lexicon.

I think it's kind of cool. /dissenting-opinion
I'm presuming you viewed it on a mobile device. On my laptop running firefox I had this experience. My laptop is presently docked to the right of my monitor on my desk. When docked I use a keyboard and mouse with the actual laptop being slightly to the right using its touchpad is somewhat awkward but do-able. Space bar to go down doesn't work, page down/up doesn't work home end doesn't work arrow keys don't work. Try…

MacBooks _will_ transition to Apple's own chips at some point. My guess is that the A14 or A15 generation will be fast and powerful enough to make the leap. This will be big especially if they can get major price or power usage advantages.
Arguably they are already powerful enough to make the leap in at least some cases, that said Apple does not push Macs in the same quantities as iOS devices as to justify wholly new silicon for the line. I have been in an argument with a friend for the past year or so about precisely when (or if) Apple will rip Intel out and use their own silicon. I think they will, but I'm going to try to present his argument to the…

It lacks a controller, though. And the "best" controller is missing three inputs you'd expect (L3/R3 "stick click" buttons and a select button).
I don't think gamers necessarily expect an L3/R3 button. The Switch does not have anything like that, and Nintendo has always been top tier for gaming controllers.

#547The person who decided to make this scroll sideways instead of down when you scroll down, and not to scroll sideways when you scroll sideways should be put in stocks in the town square.

#548Why none of the top comments on a site called Hacker News are about the fact that this is far from anything that could be used for software development surprises me. Only feasible way to use this for dev would be using a cloud IDE, since I have no access to the OS or ability to install dependencies. I love the idea of the iPad becoming something that could replace a laptop, but for me I wait for the day when I can at…
Personally I think Chrome OS will be so much better for developers once Google gets all the wrinkles ironed for Linux support.

I viewed it on Firefox on my MBP and thought it was great.

#550"The new Liquid Retina display goes from edge to edge" I've never owned an iPad, perhaps I'm missing something here. How does the above statement reconcile with the pictures I see on the page where there's clearly a black bezel? Do they just mean there's not an area at the bottom with a physical button?
Indeed. People do just love hearing words... Presenter: “This display goes from its start...” (Audience gasps) Presenter: “...all the way until it ends! We call this ‘entire’.” Audience: Audience Member 1: (whispering) “I can’t wait until I can get a device with an entire display. I’ll have to put in some OT at the job to save up, though.” Audience Member 2: “What do you do?” AM1: “I work at a company that specialize…
