Overall, iOS is more impressive than ever with its stability enhancements, security tools, suite of apps and services, and intuitive user interface.

This year's big iPhone update, iOS 12, aims to solve many of the issues that arose during iOS 11's controversial, buggy tenure. With that in mind, it may be tempting to jump on board the new software immediately and leave iOS 11 in the dust for good.

The Greek is a very cool venue, if you have pit tickets. I usually don't like sitting for shows but this one might be cool since their latest album Congratulations is a lot less dancy than their debut album Oracular Sepectacular.

This is one of my favorite instructional videos, short but sweet. I really do suggest putting tape on your drums if they don't sound too good. If they kind of ring out or have too much of an echo sound, just muffle them down with tape like he says and it gives them a much more raw, deep sound. Levon's the best, you gotta love him.

Many gamers see the film industry as the premier model that video games should follow, and it's no surprise. Movies are seen as the most legitimate and profitable of all artistic visual mediums, which is certainly qualities practitioners of any new medium would desire.
