This isn't letting me drag back either.

Yeah, explicitly disabled. Corporate control freak behavior - that tracks.

Anyone able to restart the stream if you missed the first few minutes or are we living in a world where AI will cure cancer but Apple can't build a "Watch live / Watch from start" button ?

Does it ? I can pause but I can't seem to go back. Clicking on the timeline does nothing. Clicking on the "live" indicator does nothing.

Stoked about custom environments on visionOS from your panoramas. I have been shooting so many panoramas of national parks in anticipation of this moment.

The dubbed audio is disturbing. Or is it a delayed audio stream?

Hopefully this new golden gate update is really the snow leopard everyone's been hoping for.. already exciting one can now (if only partially) disable liquid glass

Liquid Glass is fine for me since I put it in grayscale. I actually like it.

I’m just talking about iOS though. Haven’t updated to Liquid (Gl)ass on macOS yet.

You can't scrub back and forth on the timeline until the live stream is finished.

I have to manually log in to Gmail and other emails accounts just to search it properly. Really glad to see some action on this

When I download a new app on iOS, I immediately disable searching it and disable background updates. I hate the search feature and only use it as an app launcher when I’m accidentally not on the App Library screen.

On macOS, I also disable spotlight for everything because the indexing process has been the single biggest culprit of CPU spikes when it’s doing something insane like indexing a git repo. Again, I only use Spotlight as an app launcher.

I wish it were easier to opt into this “App Launcher only” mode. I had to really tinker with the settings to exclude everything except applications. And I’m sure I’m going to need to do it all over again after this update.
