Can't create an auto-updating album of a particular person on Pixel Pro 10 XL

I am in the UK. On Google photos on my Pixel Pro 10 XL, when I click to create a new album it gives me the option to create an auto-updating album of a particular person, based on the "people and pets" faces. However when I choose one, I just get stuck on "loading photos" forever. It never adds any pictures to the album. All my photos are backed up to Google drive.  I've tried using the web app, I've tried clearing cache, I've tried clearing storage and resyncing all my photos. I've tried restarting my phone. I've tried creating an album then syncing with a particular person after but I don't get any option for "automatically add pictures" Google Gemini suggested to me. I cannot seem to find any way to get this to work.

What makes this song so melancholy?

I listened to this for the first time today and I haven't been able to stop listening to it and it brings me to tears every time. It doesn't really have much emotional relevance to me lyrics wise. It's obviously in a minor key, but why does it sound SO sad to me? Any music theory heads able to explain it?

Advice on processing breaks to make them sound less aggressive?

I'm looking for some advice on how to process breaks, specifically the amen, to make it less aggressive sounding? I was listening to a bunch of atmospheric dnb and jungle tracks like Pulse by DJ Fokus, Aurora by Voyager, Gulfstream by Greenfly etc.

I'm pretty sure these all use amens but they don't sound like super hard and banging, they're kinda low key and tight and skippy and light sounding. How do you process an amen, or other breakbeat to get that sound?

Brand recommendations? For a budget, reliable, 80s/90s quartz.

Hi my wife's 30th birthday is coming up. She has no real interest in watches or vintage watches as a collector and neither do I. (she doesn't currently own a watch as she lost her watch around a year ago) but she said to be offhandedly the other day, "I'd love to get like a vintage kinda watch, just a charity shop type one.." I've been down a 48 hour rabbit hole of manual winding watches, automatic ones and have finally decided that a quartz 1980s-90s watch would be most suitable as she WILL forget to wind a manual wind and probably won't be too bothered for getting a mechanical watch serviced. And I'm not sure she would appreciate the craftsmanship that mechanical watches present. (Although after going down that rabbit hole I'm thinking about buying myself a nice vintage manual wind.......) Additionally, she won't want me to spend a lot of money as she'll be terrified she loses it. This won't be her main gift.

TLDR: So I'm looking for a budget 1980s-90s quartz vintage ladys watch - which brands should I be looking for and which should I avoid? And what should I really be paying? I'm valuing reliability over prestige brands
