But when I go to my business building for my business major, there’s enough professors who rant about Democrats while the hallway there were free WSJ print dailys. I learn the most about business at the local flea market, and that’s when I knew college was just a breeding ground of illiberal thoughts. Still like the WSJ daily even if I was paying for it.

“I mean, most Jewish people I know in the USA aren't even Zionists” -this is a huge part of the problem. Israel was created as a safe-haven for Jews when the world starts saying shit like “Calling for genocide of Jews depends on the context in which it is said”. Anybody who thinks anti-Zionism is Not antisemitism probably agrees with this “context” bullshit.

I don't think that any speech calling for mass murder of ANY people is acceptable.

*Both* Islamaphobia and anti-Semitism have been hugely boosted in the last few months. Attacks on Jewish people in UK have soared in the past two months. And they never touched zero anyway.

(and count me as totally anti-current-Israel government and actions. As are many Jews.)

The Canadian pronunciation is the only correct one: Boak,eh?

What is "affordable"?

Anything less than $1200. Head-Fi inflation and inflation-inflation.

So what's the answer? Can't you just give me a simple black and white yes/no and let me follow like a sheeple? I can't handle all the gray areas! ;)

This is real science

Yeah I'm must kidding. I do get that feeling with the LCD-R though given how rare they are. Probably fine is a bit scary.

Thank you!

@driftingbunnies had a pretty concise write up of the experience.

Why do you care?

@rhythmdevils Why no interest in the XLR? It's the biggest upshot of the Midgard.

@ColdsnapBry because if there’s resonance in my headphones I want to fix it myself not have an amp cover it up (I know, crazy)

@rhythmdevils Gotcha, well the 1/4" of the midgaard is pretty average sounding. The balanced out sounds better on my Focal.

Take a few shots first

Milei is scary

You big tease.

Crypto is just about riding the hype train during the right phases of the cycle. You can immerse yourself in white papers but it's all bullshit in the face of whales pumping or dumping.

10k on "a coin" is risky..

Any amount on a shitcoin is risky. My original investment was around half that though, half of what I lost were gains.

Wondering if this is like Yamaha's Active Servo tech (negative impedance convertor?). Have some ancient subs that use it and they still impress.

From Schiit: "Introducing Halo: Breakthrough or Illusion?
Halo is a mixed-mode feedback topology that incorporates your headphone driver into the feedback loop, offering the potential for better control at driver resonance and improved acoustic results."

Anything learned from Magnepan? Jason seemed super excited about some of their new stuff. Curious to see how phase and things of such are handled.

Apple is working on their AI. I think Cook was antsy because Stewart would have pointed out all the very real issues with the current wave of AI and Cook didn't want that to spoil Apple's rollout. China is obvious.

Then tell Xi to keep his war planes and spy balloons out of US airspace.

^Don't worry, soon Xi's hang gliders will be drifting in El Nino's updraft through our troposphere

Hopefully I will have a Skoll review soon.

Always interested in what folks here think of new gear. I'm especially excited for SKOLL though. Will put it up against a Zphono XRM which I really like.
I hope I'm surprised by midgard impressions as well.

The skoll is fantastic. Been too busy at work to write up my thoughts. Using it with the shibata AT

So we are all coming over to your house for lunch?

what smoker do you have (or recommend)?

What’s the secret Asian ingredient?

All these people who are well-beyond retirement age but still cling to their power. All due respect to my older friends but we need age limits. Feinstein, McConnell, Biden, Trump.. none of them should be running for national public office at their ages.

To be fair all, of our parties leadership in Canada are much younger. It is debateable whether it helps. I would not pin your hopes on it.

We've been blessed with wonderful old senators (McCain, Carl Levin, Moynihan, Romney et al.). We should not be ruling out the most-experienced, best-qualified candidates with age-limits or term-limits. We need to find other solutions—ranked-choice primaries would be a start. I'm mildly concerned about the likely 2020 candidates ages; but see https://www.nationalreview.com/2023/09/something-is-going-to-break/

looks like Abbas's mistress is envious of the new Friends ed. of the MIL...

Might be worth trying one out on the side. Just make sure the Mrs. doesn't find out.
