Wanda Vision would help. The Marvel Universe is very intertwined. The more you watch the more you understand. The new Spider Man movie is recommended for background too. The first Dr Strange had to much CGI for my liking, but what do I know. The Animated Dr Strange movie was Great. The Moon Knight had an interesting end but it came after/ during the credits.

A brand-new HomePod Mini from Apple costs just $99, but has less computing power, fewer microphones for detecting commands and is not compatible with an AppleTV - which could be an explanation for why the original HomePod is thriving on third party markets.

Re: Dryer musical alarms - 5 weeks ago

Simple, no. What tells the buzzer to go off is inside on a circuit board at the input to the buzzer. So you unsolder, maybe unplug the buzzer and attach wires and run them out the back to attach to that happy sound that works on the same low voltage. Use duc tape to muffle the buzzer or remove is best option.
