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.

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.

Gifted (2017) A Review

Image
Gifted (2017)  Is the story of a 7 year old girl and her uncle who is taking care of her. The child is extremely gifted in the field of mathematics. This runs in the family, as her mother was as well, and so was her grandmother. To a lesser extent her uncle was also very intelligent. We pick up the story when the uncle is fixing boats freelance and taking care of the girl in a small rental home in Florida. He has schooled her at home before she goes to school (1st grade) and the teacher realized just how smart she is and how much knowledge of math she actually has. To say the least most people on earth don't have the knowledge of math that this 7 year old has. Enter the grandmother and we find out that the girls mother killed herself and that the uncle blames himself for not seeing the signs before it was too late. The grandmother wants the child to go home with her and to be schooled in math the was she schooled her daughter (the child mom). After a legal battle, the child ends up...
