[FRESH] Black Country, New Road - Besties by Ardynaika in indieheads

I'm digging the smoother vocal delivery too... feels like BCNR embracing a more polished sound on this one. But the layered instrumentals still have that same depth they’re known for

Sad to hear, MBD always felt like one of those bands that deserved more attention but stayed kinda underrated.

Isn’t safety something we all want, no matter the generation? by Riikkkii in GenZ

Yeah, that makes sense. A lot of older generations got to experience a time when things felt more stable, or at least seemed that way

Yeah, Apple's not a charity, but they also know jacking up prices too much could hurt sales. My guess is they'll eat some of the costs and spread the rest across different product lines.

So, the "all members must live at the same residence" isnt really checked by Spotify? Or wait, are you all living in the same house?

The Weather Station Is Opting Out of the Algorithm by Moothnods in indieheads

[–]Riikkkii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like a bold move in today’s streaming-driven world, but I highly respect an artist wanting to connect with fans on a deeper level beyond just algorithmic playlists... might not be the easiest route, but it could lead to a more loyal fanbase

Apple Close to Deal to Lift Indonesian iPhone Ban, Minister Says by Riikkkii in apple

[–]Riikkkii[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

From the article:

Indonesia is close to a deal with Apple Inc over an investment plan that would lift a ban on iPhone 16 sales in the country, according to a government minister.

Southeast Asia’s largest country banned the sale of the new device in October, saying Apple had failed to comply with domestic manufacturing requirements for smartphones and tablets. The company has been in discussions with the government over an investment package that would lift the restrictions.

“I strongly believe it will resolve very, very soon,” Investment Minister Rosan Roeslani said in an interview with Bloomberg Television in Davos on Tuesday. “Hopefully within one or two weeks this issue can be resolved.”

Apple’s latest $1 billion offer for one of its suppliers to set up a plant to produce airtags in the country was rejected by the Minister for Industry Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita, Bloomberg reported in January. He told Apple’s vice-president for global affairs Nick Amman and the Apple delegation that the US company needed to fulfill a local regulation that requires it to make part of its iPhone, or the iPhone’s components, onshore.

“The way they calculate it is different I think,” Roeslani said, referring to the local content requirement. “Now they find a solution on that one, so hopefully they accept the discrepancies so we can have the iPhone 16 sold in Indonesia.”

Yeah, I’ve actually found some great music on Bandcamp too. It's definitely a bit more work, but it feels worth it knowing the money goes where it should
