I love this question. Perhaps there is also the record labels and mainstream media that prioritize marketability and mass appeal, which most probably would discourage artists from producing overtly political content, the stuff that may be thrown into the controversial or polarizing basket just doesn’t pull in the bucks these days.

Well Apple has to do something after the Barclay’s downgrade.

Lately I’ve been using more AI-derived search engines, I often need a direct answer to a certain problem, and not looking for a date specific answer. I haven’t used Google search for years, DDG is my daily driver but engines derived from chat GPT work for me. This is when I have a specific problem like when say building a recipe, or trouble shooting a mechanical problem etc. I use ask.ai or phind.com

I second this, everytime I shut the mail app down or sleep my Mac the mail app prompts me to sign in again with my Gmail accounts. (could also be Google of course) - if anyone has a good suggestion for a better email client that supports ProtonMail bridge, I’d love to hear about it.

It seems like more and more there is a need for some kind of privacy inclined instructional website to come out like iFixit to tackle such things.

“when they used to let ugly people make it” funny comment, sad but true.

100% agree, I love music and have been in the past passionate. I have gigs of old MP3’s, tapes stacked in boxes and soft folders full of CD’s. In my house I have easily more than a thousand vinyl records just sitting in their sleeves but today’s music just doesn’t do it for me. I think good music is out there to discover but it’s just harder to find those gems these days. I blame many things but that’s probably for another discussion, maybe I’m just getting old to be honest.

Maybe these:

Was there a large audible sound in the scene? I’ve seen the movie more than a few times as a kid but don’t recall loud mechanical sounds of the missile doors. If it was a drill, no doubt they would had routinely opened the doors on the regular in the past, and at the bare minimum, they should have done due maintenance to ensure silky smooth and squeek free opening of said doors.

It’s timeless and perhaps an obvious one (& perhaps not so clever), but the iPod used to always sort out situations where we never had a DJ or any music available. Gotta say RIP those innovative days for Apple, nothing was cooler than being an instant DJ while working as line cook having 160 gigs of music on a device.

I am a big supporter of FUTO, the company respects your privacy. I think the concept of taking on nascent projects then funding and assisting in developing them, is the change that we need in open source app development right now. For those who didn’t read the post by Jasep, look up Louise Rossman on YouTube Grayjay, the guy is a big inspiration.

Good to know and yes I’ve been seeing reports on this.

In my country Lemsip Max Cold and Flu Capsules contain a few other ingredients, I’m not sure if they are the same with yours. They say they contain a combination of paracetamol, phenylephrine hydrochloride, and caffeine. I think that the combo helps with congestion as well, and obviously if it has caffeine, so it’ll give you a buzz (never in a great way in my opinion) - Basic Paracetamol works for the pain and fever part. It is commonly used to alleviate symptoms such as headache, muscle aches, sore throat, and fever.

Hope you get better soon!

This is what I was thinking, although I feel some of the samples more represent 70’s & 80’s

More adapters at ridiculous prices, it never ends. I would hope the USB-C to lightning adapters soon to be sold at Dollar Tree stores will work, knowing proprietary marketing I doubt it. Apple is late to the party, I would bet that there is some inbuilt trickery in this adapter that recognizes it’s authenticity.
