I know a dude that literally lives on bread, cheese, and the occasional chicken nugget.

And just because Visa is shutting down Ad Solutions does not mean Visa is out of the data-slinging business, but Gerlt declined to provide details as to what that could look like going forward

Why just Mastercard. ALL payment services are doing this. Everything from payment gateways, card brands, digital wallets (You really think google and apple aren’t logging every detail of your purchases). Seems a bit silly to just call out Mastercard.

Increased strength would help with all of the above…

Yeah, I’m not a playlist guy at all. All my friends tell me I’m lame and that it’s like a better version of the mixtape but to me a playlist has never been analogous to the mixtape or burned CD. With those formats you had quantifiable time limits so you had to be very selective about what went on them.

I’m an album purist at heart, I understand I’m in the massive minority but it is just who I am.

Can’t argue with that. I used to do similar. I just found after moving to Apple Music from Amazon and Spotify that I haven’t wanted to leave. I’m not constantly bombarded with podcasts when I’m trying to listen to music (looking at you Spotify) and that’s been a big UX improvement for me. I might try Tidal again at some point but when I tried it initially it was a bit clunky.

Ahhh, that makes sense. My google home and Alexa’s integrate with Apple Music so when I need to listen on one of those I can. But that’s rarely how I listen. I’m either in AirPods or using my desktop monitors. I feel like for my use cases Apple Music seems to have better sound quality.

That’s interesting. I had Spotify for a couple years and absolutely hated it. Moving to Apple Music was a much more enjoyable experience for me.

I signed up for their VPN recently and was intrigued by their email offering so I uppee my sub not knowing I'd get this as well. I've been using bitwarden for years but after giving this a test drive for the last couple of weeks I'm strongly considering switching over completely. I've really liked it. The ability to create alieses on the fly is awesome.

I'm in love with this album. My three year old runs around singing along to I Can't Party all the time.

11 years. Just got my notification that my account data is ready for downloading. When I get time, the next step is to replace all my comments and then delete them prior to deleting my account. No plans to return.
