How to Use a Car Cassette Tape Adapter Cassette tape adapters allow you to play external audio devices—including CD players, smartphones, and MP3 players—from any vehicle’s tape deck head unit. They are shaped like compact cassettes on the outside, but the internal workings are quite different.

Okay, it hasn’t “revealed plans” so much as it’s posted a single teaser image on Twitter, along with an accompanying tweet showing the brief announcement. The same announcement has been posted to the official website, but some have been having trouble getting it to load, hence the second tweet. The announcement explains that this next entry in the series will be using Unreal Engine 5 instead of its in-house REDengine, which was most recently used for Cyberpunk 2077....

What Is a Macro? A macro is a shortcut for performing more than one task. If you press Ctrl+E or select the Center Text button from the ribbon in Microsoft Word, your text automatically centers. While this one-click solution may not seem like a macro, it is. A Macro applies your custom formatting to any selected text with the click of a button rather than having to change the font, text size, positioning, or spacing manually....

While we often think of Disney movies as the ultimate family-friendly content, some older classics feature racist stereotypes and inaccurate depictions of people. Instead of erasing the content, the media company has added an advisory before these films on its Disney+ streaming platform to acknowledge the problematic scenes and encourage viewers to read more about a new initiative dedicated to better representing its audience. Choosing to show these scenes with commentary—as opposed to erasing them or showing them without any mention of their problematic nature—is an “important step” for Disney to reckon with its own film library, as well as the country’s reckoning of the past, Darnell Hunt, UCLA’s Dean of Social Sciences, told Lifewire in a phone interview....

What’s the Problem? Getting the app onto the iPad is only part of the problem. Most apps are built for a newer version of iOS, so the current version of the app won’t work on the original iPad running iOS 5.1.1. However, assuming there is a version of the app that runs on the older operating system, you can put it on your iPad. First, try to download the app through the App Store on the iPad....

What Is an EDRW File? A file with the EDRW file extension is an eDrawings file used with the SolidWorks eDrawings CAD program. In short, it’s just a format used for storing 2D designs in a “view only” format. These files are useful when sharing a design not only because the file is compacted to a much smaller size than the raw design, making them much easier to share, but also because the original data can’t be tampered with because the format is specially made for viewing a design, not editing it....

What Is an EMZ File? A file with the EMZ file extension is a compressed image file, more specifically referred to as a Windows Compressed Enhanced Metafile file. These types of files are actually just GZIP compressed EMF files, which is a graphics format used by Microsoft applications like Visio, Word, and PowerPoint.

How Big Is It? If you want measurements, the Power Bar is about 2.75 inches (7 cm) wide, 7.25 inches (18.5 cm) long, and a little over 1 inch (3 cm) thick. It’s good for a bag and can sit on or inside of a desk, but it’s way less portable than a lot of other charging solutions, especially when you factor in the cords and adapters you might also need to bring along....

Knowing the essential shortcuts in iTunes (or any other program for that matter) helps to speed up tasks. The graphical user interface (GUI) in iTunes may be easy enough to use, but it can be slow if you need to do a lot of music library management tasks.

We haven’t even gotten into the weeds here, and already let’s recap. There are free (likely level 2) chargers on public land in North Carolina that add maybe a few miles every hour to an EV. They’re probably at parks, rest stops, and other areas where people congregate with vehicles. Moss is so angry at this scenario; he would rather destroy these stations with up to $50,000 than let some people charge their vehicles....

When it comes to sound quality, a good smart speaker should have exceptional voice recognition and music playback, so far-field microphones are just as important as tweeters and woofers. The far-field microphones must be able to hear your voice commands in the face of background noises, and you shouldn’t have to shout to get the speaker to pick up your voice commands from a distance. Audio software is also important, and more and more speakers are incorporating features like adaptive audio, which allow your smart speaker to adjust to the acoustic conditions of the room....

Fake IRS letters can look quite real if the scammer is skilled enough, but there are a few key things that you can look for....

Music Browsing and Playback Depending on how you listen to music in your car, there are a handful of features that may or may not be important to you. If you have a lot of music or podcast files stored on your phone or tablet, then the best Android car stereo for you is going to be one that supports music browsing and playback through the head unit.
