Apple has launched a new web page that brings together links and information about its online services for customers shopping from home during the global health crisis.


Titled "Everything you love about our stores is online," the new catch-all page links from the Apple.com home page and includes details about no-contact delivery options, Apple Specialist help, financing and credit options, Apple Trade In, Apple Card, order status checking, service and support.

The page also links out to "Today at Apple - At home," a series of fun how-to videos to help users get creative during the ongoing stay-at-home measures, and there's a series of category links for customers to explore products on Apple's online store.

Apple has been gradually re-opening its retail stores in countries where lockdowns have eased, although some are operating on limited hours.

Apple CEO Tim Cook last week said that Apple was going to reopen stores in Austria and Australia this week, and Apple's sole Apple Store in Vienna will be reopening on Tuesday, May 5.

We're still waiting to hear exactly when stores in North America will reopen, but Cook also said that Apple is planning to reopen a few stores in the U.S. starting in May. Store openings will be staggered, with Apple evaluating data that includes local guidelines and recommendations before reopening.

Вокалист SHINEDOWN Brent Smith опубликовал в своём аккаунте в Инстаграм фрагмент с выступления группы и написал:

«Я так же сильно, как и любой из вас, хочу, чтобы такие моменты, как этот, вернулись. Я люблю выступать, и я люблю #massgatherings или, как я люблю называть их, #familyreunions. Так что, сказав это, я хотел бы воспользоваться моментом, чтобы поделиться чем-нибудь со всеми вами по всему миру.

Такие моменты, как этот, обязательно вернутся. Все мы сможем пойти и посмотреть на выступление нашего любимого артиста вживую, на соревнования наших любимых спортивных команд, и да — это будет безопасно.

В течение последних 72 часов я наблюдал, как части #usa начинают открываться заново, а также другие страны за рубежом начинают процесс снятия некоторых ограничений, и я наблюдаю, как много взволнованных и благодарных людей, готовых вырваться в мир, который они так любят, но, я также вижу, что есть люди, которые имеют серьёзные опасения из-за открытия различных регионов.

С самого начала блокировки я сделал одну вещь, которая действительно помогла мне лично сориентироваться в этой #pandemic, и это просвещает меня.

Мы должны уважать не только друг друга, но и позволять людям, которые работают круглосуточно и без выходных, обеспечивать нашу #safety и наше #future.

Я знаю, что мы все #Anxious и хотим вернуться к #Life, но я прошу всех нас быть уважительными друг к другу и не быть эгоистичными.

Я знаю, что это трудно, но, я обещаю вам, что если мы все будем работать #together, то и сможем #riseuptogether.

У всех нас в @shinedown — меня, @zmyersofficial, @bkerchofficial и @ebassprod есть поговорка, которая дорога нашим сердцам... И она звучит так: "Дело не в художнике, дело в картине".

Мы #love всех вас, и мы скоро будем вместе. #westandtall #atlasfalls #directrelief #shinedown #shinedownnation #shinedowncrew #shinedownfamily #respect». #Shinedown #AlternativeRock #Alternative_Rock #GrungeRock #Grunge_Rock

“FULL DISCLOSURE” This is MY opinion 👇 I want moments like this back just as much as anyone. I love performing, and I LOVE #massgatherings or as I like to call them #familyreunions 🤗. So that being said, I wanted to take a moment to share something with all of you around the world. Moments like this WILL happen again. All of us will be able to go, and see our favorite artist perform live, our favorite sports teams compete, and yes it will be safe to do so. For the last 72 hours, I have watched parts of the #usa begin to reopen, and also other countries abroad begin the process of lifting certain lockdown restrictions, and I can see so many people excited, and grateful, and running out into the world they love so much but, I am also seeing that there are people that have serious concerns in their eyes, as parts of the world begin to open back up. Since the very beginning of the lockdown, I have done one thing that has truly helped me personally navigate through this #pandemic, and that is educate myself. We must be respectful of not only each other, but also allowing the people that are working 24/7 around the clock to insure our #safety and our #future. I know we are all #Anxious and we want to get back to living #Life , but I ask all of us to be respectful of each other, and to not be selfish. I know this is difficult but, I promise you if we all work #together we will #riseuptogether. All of us in @shinedown myself, @zmyersofficial @bkerchofficial and @ebassprod have a saying that we hold dear to our hearts... And that is “It’s not about the painter, it’s about the painting 🌎”. We #love you ALL, and we will be together soon. ❤️⚠️❤️. #westandtall #atlasfalls #directrelief #shinedown #shinedownnation #shinedowncrew #shinedownfamily #respect Moving pictures by THE MAN!!! @sanjayparikhphoto

В рамках интервью для Rolling Stone барабанщик METALLICA Lars Ulrich ответил на вопрос о том, какая музыка его зацепила за последнее время:

«Я бы назвал Fiona Apple — её пластинка ["Fetch the Bolt Cutters"] просто сногсшибательна. В тот день, когда альбом только вышел, я его слушал часа три-четыре подряд и читал тексты. Честно говоря, я был поражён тем, насколько это необычно и гениально, потому что это так нестандартно. Каждые несколько лет выходит пластинка с другим звучанием. Я думаю, что последние ARCTIC MONKEYS, выпущенные года два назад ["Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino"], также имели схожий эффект, когда ты получаешь совсем не то, что ожидаешь, потом слушаешь это и просто говоришь: "Вау, это всё ещё возможно — сделать что-то музыкальное и не так, как у всех, ты ощущаешь уникальность, свежесть и неожиданность". Так что я бы сказал, что альбом Fiona Apple определённо из этой категории. Мне также нравится альбом Ed'a O'Brien'а. И его выступление на "Kimmel" — мы смотрели его достаточно часто.

В остальном, я думаю, вы заметили, что я больше обращаюсь ко многим своим старым друзьям [в музыкальном плане]. Пожалуй, музыка, которую я слушал больше всего за последние два-три месяца, — это RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. Неужели я единственный, кто думает, что их музыка с каждым днём становится всё более и более актуальной? Она всё больше и больше ассоциируется с тем, что происходит в мире. Просто такое ощущение, что все четыре этих альбома были записаны на прошлой неделе. И когда я делаю свои жалкие слабенькие упражнения, надеваю наушники и начинаю заниматься, я выдаю что-то типа: "Охренеть", когда просто слышу что-то в "Calm Like A Bomb", "Sleep Now In The Fire" или "Bombtrack", и думаю: "Не, ну правда, что ли? Какого хрена? Откуда это вообще взялось?" Так что RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE никогда не подведут!»

Ulrich также рассказал, что слушают члены его семьи:

«В доме довольно часто можно услышать Radiohead. Radiohead начали делать что-то вроде того, что делает Metallica, — они транслируют концерты, так что у нас дом фанатов Radiohead».

На вопрос о том, чем он заполняет своё время в период самоизоляции, Lars ответил:

«Я пытаюсь оставаться здоровым и здравомыслящим и быть как можно более продуктивным. Я пытаюсь быть более физически активным, чем несколько месяцев назад, занимаясь тренировками и играя, вместо того, чтобы валяться на диване. Это помогает чувствовать себя лучше в психологическом плане». #Metallica #ModernRock #Modern_Rock #AvantgardeRock #Avantgarde_Rock #HeavyMetal #Heavy_Metal #SymphonicMetal #Symphonic_Metal #ThrashMetal #Thrash_Metal
