MADE MY MIND UP ABOUT YOUTUBE MUSIC

One of the big selling features with YouTube music for me is that they have a very large number of songs and videos to enjoy. I've tinkered with a couple other services that friends have and both of them did NOT have Rational Youth at all. Being this is a band I enjoy a lot, I would miss it.

I'm 100% going to be keeping the Premium version of YT Music. It just is a good deal for me being it has all these songs no one has heard of that I like and the interface is clean and easy.

There are a few bugs right now, for example subscribing on YT music sometimes puts the band on your YouTube feed as well, and well - I don't want that - I want them separate. The other thing is, play lists are completely shared between YouTube and YT Music and that is a bit of a piss off to me. The limitation of 5000 songs per list might be OK for 99% of people, but I have to think there should be no limit to the number of songs or at least be 10K. Then there is the interface freaking out sometimes, it will had the wrong information on it now and then and when you hit the info button you get an error until you hit it a 2nd time, then all the right info seems to come up.

I am a big fan of the algorithm they use to select songs for auto-generated play lists though. It's awesome almost always. But once again nothing is perfect and now and then you will get a song that just does not fit in the list LOL. But if you do a lot of video watching on the parent site, you will know how recommended videos don't always have anything to do with what you like.

I also swear that there is better dynamic range on the music after going Pro with it. This could just be my brain playing tricks on me though. Would like to know if anyone else noticed that as well.

The ability to play songs from a video without the video playing saves bandwidth as well and is a feature I like. It's also only available on Premium. Other features of the paid service are that you can have it play in the background and do other things at the same time on your phone or tablet. Heck the free one ever stopped playing when you shared a song to social media. Not to mention the longer you listen the closer together the ads become until all the sudden they are before every song - paid has no ads.

It's all keyed to make you pay for a subscription after all. But I am actually willing to do that and have been shopping for a music streaming service for a while now. I chose YT for the nice interface and the vast amount of songs and videos you can enjoy. Hell some services have a 1/6 the songs that YT does. Also a couple are more money.

Well anyway, this might be the last time I go on about this service, so enjoy having me NOT talk about it LOL.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.

10 Questions Answered

1. How many times have you seen the time as exactly 8:18 am/pm in your life? Almost never. If I did I did not take note of it. 11:11 I always remember as well as 3:33. The middle of the night where all the horror movies have things happen is said to be 3:15am - you have no idea how many times I’ve woken up at 3:15am and looked at my phone. 2. What have you lived long enough to see? The list is rather long, but I’ll try to keep it short. Computers went from filling a room bigger than my apartment, to fitting in our pockets. When I worked in data entry, the entire building was using a 1GB drive that was the size of a stove. Now my 512GB micro SD card is smaller than a fingernail. Medical treatments like Stem Cells are not giving life back to people who would have died when I was younger. Medication I’m on did not exist 15 years ago, and it’s keeping me alive. All manner of medical wonders. Personal space travel. This was fiction when I was young, and now it’s happening. Then there is uns
