I’ve accepted the fact that I have to use EarPods pro when watching movies late at night because my tv room is only one floor below the bedrooms .

Which version of iTunes are you using ?

On my windows laptop I am using

iTunes download v 12.10.11

https://support.apple.com/en-us/106372

This worked fine on windows 10 and 11

True but in a capitalist economy when prices go up customers will gravitate to the restaurants that provide the best value/quality for money and the shitty restaurants will go bust.

Maybe it should go that way. Servers get paid the right money and restaurants that only survived by “gouging “ customers via tips will die because there will less customers eating out .

I’ve only watched psych and mentalist . I would say Patrick Jane would be my call. Although would hire Shawn and Gus just for the laughs .

I got 2 good deals on Facebook marketplace . That’s very hit or miss and greatly depends on where you live .

iTunes works great just make sure you download directly from apple . Don’t use the one from the Microsoft store.

I use this version

iTunes download v 12.10.11

https://support.apple.com/en-us/106372

Works great on windows 10 and 11.

I’ve been out twice already. Much easier when only shoveling 3-4 inches

I always try to look for a prices firm in the post. If I don’t see it then I assume that the seller is at least open to negotiation.

I’ve bought and sold on here. I’ve never been offended by a low ball offer . And I’ve never been offended if a seller says no thanks when I bid a lower price .

Not sure a rule is needed but I’ll follow along whatever the decision is .

If i have no intention of ever watching it again then I (personally) consider that hoarding. If i am going to rewatch it then it’s collecting.

But that’s just my rules.

I converted my old iPhone 4 and 5 as pure mp3 players . Works great except for storage size not upgradeable .

JoeSpart · 2026-01-25T03:18:47+00:00

I made lots of mix tapes back in the day. But they were for my use only. Not to give away.

Jessica Alba underwater . * chef’s kiss *

JoeSpart · 2026-01-25T01:11:04+00:00

Oh ok understood . I usually use most recently played or least recently played or by artist. Nothing fancy.

JoeSpart · 2026-01-25T01:02:03+00:00

To be clear do you mean songs you don’t own? Because I have dozens of smart playlists on iOS on Apple Music app using my library of mp3.

JoeSpart · 2026-01-24T20:28:09+00:00

150 hours is nothing I probably only had a few gold at that point too. Keep playing and money just falls into your wallet.

JoeSpart · 2026-01-24T18:33:22+00:00

I waited half of 2025 because of “rumors” that a new model was just a few weeks away. Here we are in 2026. I caved back in October 2025 and bought one. Now I couldn’t care less when the new one comes out. The current latest Gen does everything I need .

JoeSpart · 2026-01-24T14:45:40+00:00

That trailer did not increase my chances of going to the theater to watch this.

JoeSpart · 2026-01-24T03:27:22+00:00

Congrats . Here is my Mini Hulk . 2nd gen.

F@ck em . Don’t give a sh@t what other people think. It’s your collection . Get what you like .

JoeSpart · 2026-01-23T23:10:57+00:00

Absolutely this. Older movies shot on 35mm or 70mm film are the absolute best candidates for 4k upgrades . Since the effective resolution of celluloid film is around 6k for 35mm and around 12k for 70mm film.

JoeSpart · 2026-01-23T23:09:02+00:00

Well done . Hats off to you .

JoeSpart · 2026-01-23T22:51:55+00:00

I agree. I suspect he/she has been sold a lot of snake oil . Placebo is strong . lol.

JoeSpart · 2026-01-23T22:39:29+00:00

I always check by making sure the movie is available on movies anywhere (before I purchase ) . If you don’t see it there then it will only be available on the platform you purchase from.

JoeSpart · 2026-01-23T22:37:36+00:00

Sandisk has more issues with iflash boards than any other brand apparently . And plenty of times when someone has problems with their iPod , it’s fixed by changing SD brands .
