Daniel Voice Vele, ukubona imikhiqizo ye-Apple ezikrinini ze-TV akuseyona into eyivelakancane. Esiqeshini esilandelayo sochungechunge lwaseMelika Umndeni wanamuhla (Umndeni wesimanje onjalo) Isiteshi sikamabonakude i-ABC ngeke ngokumangazayo sibe isengezo nje. Azoba yindlela eyinhloko futhi kuphela yokuqopha.
Ngo-February 25, isiqephu esisha salolu chungechunge olushiwo olubizwa ngokuthi "Connection Lost" sizovela ezikrinini ze-TV, lapho omunye wabalingiswa abakhulu u-Claire elinde indiza yakhe ngemuva kokulwa nendodakazi yakhe esanda kweva eshumini nambili uHaley. Kusukela lapho, akakwazanga ukuxhumana naye futhi useqala ukuzizwa edidekile.
Ngenhlanhla, uneMacbook naye asebenzisa izinhlelo zokusebenza ezahlukahlukene (FaceTime, iMessage, iklayenti le-imeyili) ukuze axhumane namalungu omndeni futhi azame ukuthola indodakazi yakhe. Kodwa ungalindeli noma yikuphi ukungezwani okukhulu nedrama. I-Modern Family iwumdlalo wamahlaya.
Isiqephu sesivele sibhalwe, phakathi kwezinye izinto, "isikhangiso se-Apple sehora" futhi singalindela ukuba khona njalo kwe-iPhone 6, iPad Air 2 kanye ne-Macbook Pro eshiwo kakade. Mhlawumbe kuzoba ngokokuqala ngqa emlandweni ukuthi into edutshulwa kuphela futhi ngemikhiqizo ye-Apple izokhishwa emoyeni kamabonakude ngezinga elinjalo. Iningi lamashothi athathwe ngama-iPhones noma ama-iPads, futhi cishe amabili athathwe ngisho nama-MacBooks.
Umqambi wochungechunge, uSteve Levitan, makwazeke ukuthi ukuqopha nge-iPhone bekunzima kakhulu kunalokho obekulindelwe ekuqaleni. Ekuqaleni, yonke into yaqoshwa ngabadlali ngokwabo. Kodwa umphumela wawumubi. Ngakho-ke kwadingeka ukuba kumenywe abathwebuli abangochwepheshe ukuba bazibambele mathupha. Ukuze kubonakale kukholakala ukuthi abalingisi bebewuphethe ngempela lo mshini, kwadingeka babambe izandla zomthwebuli.
Bekungelula neze ukuhlanganisa abalingisi befonelana bodwa ngeFaceTime, ngoba konke kwakwenzeka ezindaweni ezintathu ngesikhathi esisodwa. Yebo, ngezintathu. Ochungechungeni, sizobona inguqulo eqanjiwe yohlelo lokusebenza lwe-FaceTime, ekuvumela ukuthi ushayele abantu abambalwa ngesikhathi esisodwa, kuyilapho izingcingo zihlukene. Akuwenzi umqondo ongako, kodwa abadali bacabanga ngakho konke. Ngakho masimangale.
USteve Levitan uqhube wathi uthole ugqozi lwalo mbono efilimini emfushane ethi Noah (eyimizuzu engu-17 ubude), eyenzeka kusukela ekuqaleni kuya ekugcineni esikrinini sekhompyutha yomuntu siqu. Wabe esexhumana nomdali wayo ukuze abambe iqhaza ekwakhiweni kwesiqephu esisha soMndeni Wesimanje. Kodwa wenqaba ngoba ethi kuningi akwenzayo nezinye izinhlelo.
Isimo lapho uLeviathan esebenza ku-Macbook yakhe, lapho i-FaceTime nendodakazi yakhe yayimboza isikrini sonke, yaba nengxenye ekugxiliseni lo mqondo. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, wayengamboni yena kuphela, kodwa futhi ngokwakhe, futhi othile ehamba ngemuva kwakhe (ngokusobala umkakhe). Ngaleso sikhathi, waqaphela ukuthi wayebona ingxenye enkulu yokuphila kwakhe kuleso sikrini, futhi wacabanga ukuthi imodeli enjalo izoba ephelele ochungechungeni olunendikimba yomndeni.
I-Apple ngokwayo yayinomdlandla ngalo mbono, ngakho-ke yanikela ngemikhiqizo yayo ngokuzithandela. Yonke into yaqoshwa ngasiphi isitayela, ukuthi abalingisi babhekane kanjani nobuchwepheshe besimanje kakhulu nokuthi lo mqondo ongajwayelekile uzokhanga kangakanani ababukeli abafuna ngamandla uzohlala uwumbuzo izinsuku ezimbalwa.
