It will introduce NFT functionality? WTF does that even mean??
All I know is that seeing the images of the good old Winamp I remember makes my heart hurt. I just want that back. Why havenât any other media players managed to catch up to what Winamp was 10 years ago?
Iâve been living like a caveman for the last month with a metered internet connection, so Iâve basically been listening to NPR on a real radio and the soundtracks for Divinity Original Sin 2 and Baldurâs Gate 3, because those are what I have on my computer. Iâve been using VLC. Itâs not a great replacement for Winamp, but itâs ok. Yesterday I tried ReSonic, which has an overly cumbersome UI and is still working on implementing playlists. Playlists! Come on!
Honestly, Iâd be fine with VLC if it would just remember the two darned folders that I load every time I open the player, and also had a âstop after currentâ button. But thatâs too much to ask for, I guess. Winamp, in addition to whooping the llamaâs ass, apparently still has me whooped.

Exactly a decade ago, Amazon revealed a program that aimed to revolutionize shopping and shipping. Drones launched from a central hub would waft through the skies delivering just about everything anyone could need. They would be fast, innovative, ubiquitous â all the Amazon hallmarks.
âŚ
Dominique Lord and Leah Silverman live in College Stationâs drone zone. They are Amazon fans and place regular orders for ground delivery. Drones are another matter, even if the service is free for Amazon Prime members. While itâs cool to have stuff literally land on your driveway, at least the first few times, there are many hurdles to getting stuff this way.
Only one item can be delivered at a time. It canât weigh over five pounds. It canât be too big. It canât be something breakable, since the drone drops it from 12 feet. The drones canât fly when it is too hot or too windy or too rainy.
You need to be home to put out the landing target and to make sure that a porch pirate doesnât make off with your item or that it doesnât roll into the street (which happened once to Mr. Lord and Ms. Silverman). But your car canât be in the driveway. Letting the drone land in the backyard would avoid some of these problems, but not if there are trees.
Amazon has also warned customers that drone delivery is unavailable during periods of high demand for drone delivery.
