What’s the trick for getting anything useful from the AI playlist feature?

Is there a trick to using the AI playlist thing?
I have had zero successful interactions with it. I even tried some super simply entries like “build a playlist of all the Radiohead records” and it couldn’t even do that! They only have like 8 or so. lol.

I’m assuming I’m using it incorrectly.
But even when I’ve tried building a “vibe” using my library as a reference the results are shit.

Is this just more of Apple being terrible at AI stuff? Or user error?

USA v Bosnia Watch Parties?

Anyone know of a kid friendly watch party nearby?
Was thinking we’d grab some sandwiches and attend if that’s an option.

USA v Bosnia Watch Parties on the East Side?

Hey!

Trying to find a watch party that I can attend with the kid.
Was hoping there would be something outdoors that we could bring some sandwiches to and cheer on the team.
We’re in South Pasadena/Alhambra/Highland Park.
Anyone know of one on this side of town?

Bean Curd Sticks? Bows?

Found these at a local Asian market.
Trying to get back into a plant based diet.

What the heck do I do with them?!
Def need easy recipes as my time is super limited with 2 jobs and a kid.
Thanks!

Jacknife Records

Jackknife Records relocated to Huntington about half a block away from Lost Parot.
Was a nice surprise as we were on our way to lunch and happened to walk by. Grabbed a few records.
They don’t have their signage up yet but go support if you’re a record dork!

Cardboard recycling

So I have a pile of cardboard from moving, new furniture etc. Much more than I can put in our little recycling bin.

Any ideas where I can take it? Or have someone pick it up?

Food recs for a recent transplant.

Howdy!
Just moved to Alhambra. It’s such a cute neighborhood. Clearly a large Asian/Chinese community so I’m thinking I should go support the neighbors with some $.
Looking for food recs that might be too difficult to get into. Just me and the kid.
Bonus points for a solid orange chicken/tofu joint. I dream of one day finding a spicy version.
Also, the kid is a vegetarian so if there’s decent veggie options that would be ace!!

Is this truly not able to be repaired?

So my father in law has Parkinson’s and they recently got his meds tweaked right and he’s able to play guitar again!! He took his old acoustic in to have the bridge repaired and they handed it back and said nothing could be done! I’ve rarely heard of a Guitar issue that couldn’t be fixed in someway. Is this really that messed up? Couldn’t they just put a new one on?

If so, what should he be looking to pay for such a thing? Is it cheaper just to get him a middle of the road acoustic so he can play again?

Need a carpenter and some wood!

Looking for a carpenter/cabinet person and a lumber yard.

I just need shelves cut from some wood. I don’t need anything built.

I have a ton of books and records so regular 8’x12” planks won’t do it (they’ll sag) and I am not sure where to get that fancy plywood that has finished surfaces and exposed edges.

Changing my grip!

Sooooo, I’ve been holing my one close to the tip for my entire life. I have to wear gloves at work that kinda cause me to grip differently and further back and I’ve noticed that my handwriting is better and my hand doesn’t cramp from longer writing sessions.

Great!!

But my fave pens, Micron PN, does not like that angle at all. I love the way these write tho. So I’m looking for some suggestions for pens that don’t emerge easily and can write at this more acute angle. 📐
I’m not opposed to any particular type but don’t generally like ball point.
I use Paperage notebooks almost exclusively.

Would love some recs that are not super esoteric. … a little esoteric might be fine. Hah!

So, my friend put out this record and I think he did a legit awesome job.
Not sure if he'll promote it. I think he's still debating what to do with it. He has put it up on the services so I thought I'd share it. I am loving it and figured there are plenty of you that would also get something out of it. Go support a human doing things with other humans while wee still can!! Hah!

Hey!

Looking for a new place in South Pasadena (or even just across Huntington in Alhambra). Doing a little divorce thing and need a spot for me and my 11yo. Trying to stay in the hood cuz school/friends etc. One less damaging thing for the kiddo.

I’m seeing a bunch of stuff not listed on any sites so I’m hoping some of you might have some leads in your buildings or on your street.

2bd is the only requirement. Doesn’t have to be super nice. I kind of prefer some of the weird, old apartments that have a bit of character.

Thanks in advance!! 🙏
