so who knew The Carpenters were not the first to record Close to You? I didn't. This is the original version, recorded by Richard Chamberlain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXAZvxyXh4c&is=IZJoPTHjasssX7kD

Warner/Rhino has given us a deluxe edition of Fleetwood Mac's 1988 Greatest Hits compilation. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nnF4VaDfiEfCNDeQZ0kQ8uatazLEJ4MMk&si=wV1gVrZxWXpLLzj0

so The beatles have finally, finally, finally announced a deluxe version of Rubber Soul. In celebration of that, they have released take 1 of their song Michelle from that album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zq0HMLhaQOw&si=KuA1FOq2OaoG2Kpx

so I'm here with a Youtube Exploit. if you want to use this exploit you have to have an apple watch or another way to do the magic tap gesture without unlocking your iPhone's screen, and you have to have picture-in-picture enabled in both your device's settings and the youtube app's settings. so if you want to continue to listen to the audio of a video while having your screen locked, start the video, go to your home screen and let it display picture-in-picture, lock your screen (the video will pause once you do that), and do the magic tap gesture on your apple watch. the video will start playing again.

apparently, another Family Guy spin-off is in the works. Source: Variety https://share.google/UPO5WyWe7D1Ve7mIo

This absolute legend of a video will celebrate its 20th anniversary on July 12. Let's try to get it to 1 million views before then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLxP3V4veJk&si=VsT_W7EoL9S_ao0N

I'm not seeing the 0-minute option yet, but I assume this will take a while to roll out to everyone.

release notes for today's update to the McAlester's app. Bugs fixes and experience improvements

so does this mean you're advertizing that you're introducing bugs into the app? proofread your release notes.

we finally got the full version of Ray Stevens' the Haircut Song on streaming officially. the one commonly found on there omits the second verse. listen and see if you can tell me why. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbKTIcszVdc&si=bqAjqoGZONV0XuKq

Another rant for the sake of ranting incoming. Is there any phfeezable reason (that isn't a technical reason) why an app whose primary function is to allow a user to get restaurant food and groceries delivered should be nearly half a gigabyte in size?
