In case you don't remember a thing about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017 was a long time ago) - the new Zelda, Tears of the Kingdom launches on Friday, May 12:

Thought this would be appropriate, since it's been 70 years... curtana (kɜːˈtɑːnə) in British English noun: the unpointed sword carried before an English sovereign at a coronation as an emblem of mercy from Anglo-Latin, from Old French cortain, the name of Roland's sword, which was broken at the point, ultimately from Latin curtus (short) To Microsoft: Hey, curtana...

Darko's Sony 306 review... initial bass and noise problems fixed with a firmware update with additional battery drain at no extra charge... Sony vs. Gary Shanling:

Apple sells a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter that might do the trick. It's not too expensive.

Yes, Apple discontinued FireWire support in Monterey, so you should keep it below that.

Yes, I used dosdude1's installer to install macOS 10.15 Catalina on a 2008 MacBook and several other Macs. There are a few gotchas, but it mostly just works. Newer versions of the patchers (supporting macOS 11, 12, and 13) require OpenCore Legacy Patcher, which is slightly more complicated to do.

You should still be seeing classical music in iTunes. I notice that Apple just updated iTunes for Windows. The Apple Music app was first launched on macOS Catalina (10.15) in 2019, so you'd have to update to at least that to subscribe to Apple Music (which is required to get Apple Music Classical)... if Apple updates the app. Otherwise, you can still purchase classical music through iTunes, but you can't get the other features... Other than being able to find music more accurately (using their metadata), the benefits of the Classical app seem to be lossless, hi-res music and spatial audio. There are also some limitations: you need minimum iOS 15 on your phone and it excludes users in China, Japan, Korea, Russia, Taiwan and Turkey. Also, there was a news item recently claiming that Apple is planning to remove services from older devices and operating systems: https://www.macworld.com/article/1684118/apple-services-stop-working-older-devices.html – iOS 11-11.2.6 – macOS 10.13-10.13.3 – watchOS 4-4.2.3 – tvOS 11-11.2.6

It's possible they're thinking of merging the functionality into the existing macOS Music app (and not separating like on the phone)... then we could expect to see it once they merge the new metadata (composer, etc.) into the interface.

I think the Apple Music Classical app is only available on the iPhone right now. Not sure why, but it really limits their chance at success (I think more people would listen to Classical on a computer).

The players look great. Do you like those protective cases and what kind of headphones do you hook up to them? It looks like a Kimber cable in the jack.

Yes, I'll follow them to PetaPixel and I also hope the DPR gets archived.
