  • They’re gradually phasing out the iTunes PC App…Apple has divided the functions of iTunes into several focused apps. The second reason why I’d love to get a Mac Mini is to get my music redownloaded. I didn’t back up my tunes on another hard drive, which was a beginner mistake. I did upload it to Apple Music, though.



  • I don’t know, I think they wanted that Google money so much they didn’t bother! It might have been in the cards, but perhaps Google beat them to the punch and evaporated their desire to create a search engine. Search engines are likely not a business that Apple wants to get too involved in as well, that’s something to consider. Sometimes it’s better to use what is already out there and not sink too much capital in something so uncertain. I doubt Apple would’ve seen a serious amount of success with Google being the top dog in search.


  • LOL Yeah, I get it…Thus my non-serious response. Who know why people do anything? Personally, I can’t downvote, as it seems to be disabled by my current server. There have only been a few times that I’ve seen a post or comment really need a good old downvote. There are capable orgs out there, for now, I suppose in their perspective it is only Mozilla who could handle it. However, open source code can be read and seen by anyone, so that means there are people out there familiar enough with Firefox to take it on if needs must when the devil drives.

    ROFL This is Apple we’re talking about, the slowest to innovate in the tech space. That would be a Samsung maneuver, in my opinion (if that giant tech corpo would even consider a FOSS ad-free search engine). Apple is just now getting some customization options this September with an update, something Samsung and third party launchers have pretty much solved years ago.

    Oh for fun! I don’t want Mozilla to go down, Firefox is one of the few non-Chromium web browsers; I’m glad that Google is pronounced as a monopoly, as it is true. However, for every good thing, there is a terrible curse that shows how much our system needs to be changed. It will be so heartening to not have Apple using Google Search by default, as the results are fucking shit. They could survive the lack of Investor Daddy’s cash.








  • LOL I’m thankful that people know to text me instead of call, I will ignore an unsolicited phone call (if they leave a voicemail, I’ll be the judge of if it’s something important). A dubious phone call is often caught by Scam Shield, I won’t be notified until the alert from Scam Shield sounds off.
