In this video, I finally take a look at Final Cut Pro 7. Spoiler alert: I like it a lot and wish this was still around. One of the things I found interesting about the app was that anamorphic button. I don’t know why this captured my attention, but maybe it's because I've never seen a built-in one-button feature like this before. Anyways, bring back FCP7.

In this video, I comment on the Artcraft situation and what this means for commercial software, like that of Adobe. Adobe, as we all know, is very predatory in its pricing, so no wonder that a free alternative has popped up in this manner, regardless of functionality. This also has much more to say about the software industry as a whole, and what these advancements in AI could say in the future.

In this video, I discuss the history of Pixar, mainly its golden age, and how Steve Jobs fostered the creativity of John Lasseter and Ed Catmull to make moving films about the human condition, in other words, art. The main question is: Is Pixar Steve Jobs’s greatest Creation?

In this video, I talk about the decline of FCP. Less of a decline, and more like one terrible update that left the software bleeding users since. Whereas Apple today has added back many of the features. For its archaic-to-new users timeline management, and general Apple walled garden, it lacked much of what used to make it great.

Guest: Project Star Trek
In this video, I talk about Project Star Trek from the 1990s. This was an internal project at Apple aimed at moving the OS from 68k to Intel. This worked, but the PowerPC Transition derailed it and canceled the project. Music

Video Details In this video, I talk about the Airport card, something I missed by a few years because I was born when I was. Too bad. Well, it’s forgotten today and not so much killed by Apple, but more like general consumer trends. I call it killed by Apple for search and discovery reasons. Wifi cards are still around; it’s just the Apple ones that are gone!

Video Details In this video, I talk about Geocities, the very famous and beloved internet hosting service, and its own aesthetic with basic HTML webpages, an unfiltered creativity. Of course, this video won’t be complete without looking through some of the old archives! So I did just that in the video!

In this video, I go over the history of iCloud so far. Since this service has been around for a greater amount of time than Dot Mac or MobileMe, I have the opportunity to talk about some of the controversies that the service has gotten into, be it phishing schemes, government overreach, or awful exit strategies. Overall, however, I consider iCloud to be a success.

In this video, I talk about Aperture and RAW Images. The first half of this video is all about RAW, so skip ahead to f/ if you already know, or just are not interested. I like talking about that, and nobody will watch a video just about those topics on their own; see “making of a student film” that I posted a few months ago.

In this video, I talk about what happened to Spotlight search on macOS from the liquid glass transition. This was a pretty bad change, and many people feel the same way. This isn't like a Killed by Apple style of video, even though I’d consider the original gone by all means.

In this video, I talk about the Apple Silicon Transition, from the humble start with Apple and ARM in the 1990s and 2000s, to the building of the A4 chip, and that chipset, then to the dropping of the M1 in 2020. I already covered much of the shortcomings of the late stage intel macs, in a separate video, linked below and in the cards. I hope you all enjoyed the video
