Dunno about you but waiting for the new interface to come up, only to present me with less useful options is facking annoying.

Not sure if this is 'useful', more 'somewhat interesting'.
An interesting take on a design bureau — essentially, spinning it into a subscription service. Afaict, it's essentially just a rephrasing of the model most of you here may well deploy anyway, just not overtly.

http://fairpixels.co/pro/There's a Reddit by one of the founders about how they spun it out - I'm sure all I'm doing here is helping them ever so slightly with their marketing, but what the hey.

Do you need a 4k TV? Only if you intend to view an 80 inch screen from a distance of 5 feet or less.More great info here: https://www.cnet.com/news/why-ul…
- benefits of 4k over 1080p only become visible at 10 feet or closer, fully visible at 5 feet.sarahfailin
- Im thinking of upgrading. My current two sets are Plasmas and I love them. My next will be OLED. I cannot stand LED. Im just worried about 4k content.ArmandoEstrada
- Anyone know of a forum that I can go to where I can talk to TV nerds?ArmandoEstrada
- We are still viewing at like 4:2:0 or 4:0:0.
Its all stupid. Films are worked at on 2k and their final colour gamut is rec709 -- whats the point of all thismugwart

"Out of the box, Safari displays your existing websites beautifully on the edge-to-edge display of the new iPhone X. Content is automatically inset within the display’s safe area so it is not obscured by the rounded corners, or the device’s sensor housing."
so there is a new meta tag extension "viewport-fit"

When you update to IOS 11 you might notice your screen Auto-Brightness had been turned on. They really buried it this time.
Here's how to turn that shit off.Settings > General > Accessibility > Display Accommodations > Auto Brightness
- Mine kept it "on", so perhaps this is device-specific.evilpeacock
- Yes. That's what it does. I don't ever want my screen at less than 100% brightness.CyBrainX
