  • Apple rebuilding Apple Music in macOS Monterey 12.2 as a full native app

    Oh no, it’s probably gonna be assigned to the Zune team. Oh wait, it can’t get any worse than it is, so maybe it’s a good thing. 
    Never got all the whining about the Apple Music app. Whatever issues I’ve had with it were always addressed, but I mostly use it on iOS. It does several things Spotify doesn’t, namely I can play all of hundreds of gigabytes of bootlegs and live music. Something you’ll never see on Spotify. Just odd to see all the crap people give it.

    Missing some details here or some are wrong. 

    Brandao's family set up a borrowed generator after their home had gone without power for three days due to the powerful nor'easter that wreaked havoc on wide swaths of the East Coast. Though the generator was operated outside for only a few minutes before it was switched off and brought indoors, carbon dioxide permeated throughout the house at a detected 1,000 parts per million.
    If the generator is off, it isn't generating any CO.

    From an article:
    She said they set the generator up near the back door outside their home and only ran it for a few minutes before shutting it down because it was noisy.
    Then she and her husband unplugged everything from it and brought it into the house for safekeeping.
    They thought it was a safe place, but now she realizes it was too close to the house.
    The National Weather Service says you should keep a backup generator at least 20 feetaway from doors, windows and vents and recommends homes have working carbon monoxide detectors.
    Probably fuzziness of thinking after that, however I doubt it was only for a few minutes. Seems running it near the door, was the problem. Just not going to get fridges cold or stuff charged in that amount of time. Glad they are ok. Wondering if he had his eyes open, to be considered looking at his phone. 
    May not have had “Require Attention For Face ID” on, a toggle in the settings, which would’ve  cancelled out the need for the eyes to be open. Either way, quick thinking by a 9 year old.

    That [cough][cough] endorsement is enough to tell me that these are not the right product for me. 
    Then I guess nothing “Apple” is for you because these people get everything you currently have first and most times for free, just to show them off like this. They have millions of ppl following them on social media and it’s the best promotion money can buy. It’s called influence.
