Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 26-10-2022 — Essex Day.

26th October, 2022.


Right … I’ve officially done a thing: in response to other things being done!

You’re wondering what I’m talking about, aren’t you?

Basically?   Apple released the latest version of their macOS operating system — macOS 13 Ventura — on Monday, 24th October.

I’ve not yet updated to it.

Partly?

I wanted to check whether it’s compatible with my machine.

It is: I checked.   Although I suspect Ventura may be the last that works with my model.

We’ll have to see.

There’s also the other thing that stopped me.   Or, delayed me, at least?

The simple fact my main drive was short of space for the installer.

So what I’ve done, so far?

Is move my Music.app library from the main hard drive, to one of my external drives.

That bit went easily.

But lost me all my playlists!

The songs are/were there, but the playlists they were organised into, weren’t!

I’m assuming that’s because the (copied) metadata on the (copied) songs?

Was pointing the playlists at the original versions.

And that the (default) Music.app settings needed changing.

The latter I’ve changed.

All I need to do now — before I upgrade the OS — is to set up my playlist.

Hey, ho!

One last thing, before I move on?

I’m a long time Dr Who fan: so very interested in this brief YouTube video from 15th Doctor, Ncuti Gatwa … 


You can hear the Scottish accent, can’t you?

In the way he says ‘Timelord,’ and ‘TARDIS.’

Karen Gillan pronounces it, much the same way.   And Glaswegian, John Barrowman, does something similar with the word ‘Dalek.’

There’s also this announcement of the new logo.


You have to love retro, don’t you … ?
