<p><strong>Kirk McElhearn </strong>returns in a wide-ranging conversation that has something for everyone. Our first part starts with using Siri for calculations, cooking, cider, accounting software, and the Fujitsu ScanSnap Scanner software update. Then, we turn to an evaluation of the state of Apple Music, and start a discussion of the issues with backing up to a NAS.</p>
