Genius Bar

Once a week.

Dark, Twisted and Cruel from Alan Wake II’s soundtrack.

Haven’t played the game yet. Came across the song while listening to Alan Wake’s American Nightmare’s soundtrack.

Yep. Connect using Bluetooth or via a USB dongle/dock.

On my phone right now so using my phone’s Downloads folder. 2 years old.

It’s this meme:

Yep.

The moment they fix the search, fix their recommendations, stop wasting money on junk projects like games and allow me to completely disable Shorts, I will resubscribe to YT Premium.

Wow that’s a pretty app. Thanks for introducing me to it!

Slightly off topic, but starting 2025 they’re going to stop providing quarterly subscriber numbers to focus on “other metrics” related to revenue and growth.

I remember Visual Voicemail being broken for me back when I used to use Mint as well.

I switched to US Mobile on Verizon’s network and it works perfectly fine.

I never really used it for YT Music. I don’t like YT Music.

I liked no ads + background playback on iOS and Android without having to go through hoops like using NewPipe/Revanced.

Aside from Pixels, they’ve pretty much ruined all their products.

It sucks, because I actually like Google products, minus the gross privacy violations and ads. I used to pay for YT Premium.

Indeed, but you miss out on the etched glass if you’re into that.

Propel/Gatorade Zero powder drink mixes. No specific flavor.

Pack of 10 costs as much as 1 regular Gatorade bottle. More cost effective.

I switched to Notesnook recently. Would like to see a few improvements like note archiving, but other than that it’s been great.

They ran a 75% off sale recently and I snagged a subscription. It’s $10/yr if you’re a student, $50/yr otherwise.

Apparently it still works. Came across a Short talking about it.

It’s 50% off right now.

Interesting. I wasn’t aware that they weren’t profitable.

Funny enough, right after your comment I got recommended this video on YouTube talking about the points you mentioned: https://youtu.be/yDWgOwb8kj4

I don’t mind paying $10/mo for access to millions of songs on demand, even if the caveat is that I don’t own anything at the end of my subscription.

I understand costs have gone up, so I can accept a $1 increase in subscription. The problem is that Spotify wants to do a bunch of side projects at my expense. I have no interest in podcasts or audiobooks yet I must fork up the extra money to fund it. I have no say in what my money is being used for and I hate that.

It’s why I moved from it to Tidal and then to Apple Music (even though I’m on Android). Both have their own issues but at least they’re focused on music.

I’ve been loyal to Sync. Few quirks that need to be resolved like support for Lemmy spoilers, but other than that it’s been fantastic.
