    I read something about Viagra possibly being a helpful thing for Covid due to increased blood flow in the lungs? They supposedly use it for other things also? Sounds kinda....hard to do studies on.

  Quote of the Day from an Anti-Vax acquaintance "Covid is no big deal, I was only in the hospital for three days." Uh....Moron!

    Ahh, the moronic extrapolation from sample of one self <bangs head on wall>
    
    Actually, covid has been no big deal for the vast majority of sufferers, who didn't even need to go to a hospital. And it's also killed a lot of people.
    
    But hey, y'all know all this: just venting at the anti-vaxer

  Ending Qobuz trial, odd stutter when new a track begins & tons of CPU hogging on Windows. Too bad since, the mobile app is decent.

  2. YMO
    Qobuz is best with an UPnP Interface or Roon. Qobuz desktop apps IMO leave a lot to be desired.

    I've had some stutter issues w/ Qobuz this week as well... wonder if it had anything to do with all the AWS hiccups. Otherwise, what YMO said - Qobuz is best experienced outside of the Qobuz' app.
    
    Dec 16, 2021
  4. Inoculator
    Have to agree with others. Qobuz+Roon=digital music bliss. Either service without the other just doesn't feel complete. I just used the Qobuz windows app for the first time in forever this morning and it is better than it used to be, but I also had a couple hiccups.

  Does Amazon cd level music go through Android stack to 48khz rate, and how poor does it sound? Does Qobuz do the same or not?
  
  Nov 23, 2021
  2. Inoculator
    As far as I know basically all the music streaming apps do. USB Audio Player Pro gets around it, but somehow whatever they do seems to allude everyone else. Really wish Roon would figure it out.
