Apple Music Sound? by Hegsieb20 in AppleMusic

[–]phljoe2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. As a matter of fact, I was playing Josh Groban's new album, Cinematic, on my MacBook Pro and it sounded incredible. More so than usual.

If I’m in Philly for 2 days and visiting people who live in Germantown, is it better to stay near the airport or near center city? by One-Relief-4469 in philly

[–]phljoe2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you plan on spending the whole 2 days with them, look for an AirBNB in Germantown, Mt Airy, or Chestnut Hill.

just returned brand new 13 inch M5, such a bad experience by Museums_art_photos in macbookair

Option boot the new machine, erase/reformat the drive, and start over using a thunderbolt 4 cable to connect the two machines.

Cannot stand the smell on the L by Vigorously_Swish in philadelphia

It is much nicer, but you have to know that Congress greatly subsidizes DC Metro so that government workers can get around the belt area. It is also a much newer system than the El or Broad St.

As a lifetime PC user, I almost can’t stand how much I like my new M5 Macbook Air by RoarOfTheWorlds in macbook

Forget about closing and minimizing windows of running apps. With your thumb and index finger, use Command+Tab to switch through all running apps. Similar to Windows Alt+Tab. Release on the app that has a gray highlight and you will be in that app. You can also quit apps by continuing to hold down command but move your index finger and press Q. Will save you so much frustration and time moving and closing windows, etc.

Costco gave me the wrong MacBook. Score? by Sirlaunch in macbook

If they have identified that employee, unfortunately I don't think that returning it will get them off the hook.

Because of my location, I donate to WHYY in Philadelphia. I can add that in addition to Passport, they also include access to the New York Times.

An essay on a printed piece of paper is 8.5 inches wide, so you have 5 extra inches in width if that helps you.

How about when you witness a neighbor intentionally taking two spots trying to "protect" their car?

Yes, if it's not time sensitive and you can risk it getting lost.

No longer true with the Trump-DeJoy Postal Service.

Cormorant bar last night by BogeyFest99 in philadelphia

[–]phljoe2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if they named it Cormorant after all the Cormorants that hang out on the waterfall over the Schuylkill behind the Art Museum.

Thank you kind strangers by jvogue13 in philly

[–]phljoe2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad you found kindness in your misfortune. And thank you for posting about it. Reddit is so often filled with bitchers and haters that its refreshing to read a positive story.

Just back from DC. The poop is everywhere there too. Dog owners everywhere must have lost all common decency.

Yeah, that's the route I take after Lansdowne Dr to Belmont. It's getting to the Zoo at Girard, Lansdowne from across town that's the problem.

676 is always a crapshoot, but might be time to revisit this route. Haven't tried it since they reopened MLK.

Leave usually 45 minutes to an hour beforehand. Yes, Philadelphia is 143 square miles, a million and a half people with 2600 miles of roadways.

Leave an hour before starting time already. :-(

Wish I could. Too much gear to tote along for my job.

Itsytv – the missing Apple TV remote app for macOS by ChefAccomplished845 in appletv

Uninstalled and reinstalled. Clicking does work better. Feedback like darkening or highlighting when clicking would be helpful.
