Hang on. Let me try again at counting my legs. Oh wait, that was before I went gelatinoid.

Thankfully, due to the vaccination, I've now got tin ears.

Better than cauliflower ears.

Do you know the expression 'pot calling the kettle black'?

Excuse me?

They forgot the stove was hot. Fire and flames caused heat. Something was cooking. This expression always forgets the stove. Sorry, fresh coffee...

Congratulations, you have unlocked the ability to use your innate dad joke powers! Lots of fun moments ahead.

congratulations! now forget about having a regular sleep schedule for the next 20+ years.

Not to worry though. 20 years will fly by real fast. You'll be free again soon enough.

Some current MOFI stuff is like that. Also, some of the later Audio Fidelity stuff was like that.

Many 80s and early 90 CDs offer the full dynamic range available from original analog tapes. Many of those highly dynamic CDs are also extremely well mastered, and the vast majority of them are dirt cheap. That being said, I wish remastering meant better sound, not louder sound.

Probably the best batch of remasters I’ve heard in recent years were the Kate Bush remasters, which Kate personally oversaw. They manage to beat the old CDs in every way.

When I finally switched from the Goog to the Apple (just in December) I noticed that the fruit's swiping is better.

After a couple of days of using Swiftkey, rather than default-supplied Google, I think I'll stick with it. Pros and cons to both, It's worth trying for each to make their own choice.

I have Swiftkey on my Android phone and I use Apple’s default on my Apple phone. I think both are better than average at going back and forth between swiping vs pecking, which I tend to do. Swype does not do well when I go back to pecking.

And of course they also charged 3x the price of buying the exact same subscription from Amazon! Called and had it refunded. Will just buy it from Amazon or whomever is cheapest.

When the malware tracker IS the malware.

What the hell is "Magni 3 Student Edition" ?

It’s code for “Sweatshop Edition”. Hahaha. Nah I think they did something with a local school or something a while back and a bunch of them were assembled by students and some portion (or all) donated or something I believe.

I am remembering something about that now.

Was going to listen to Weld. Then was going to see if the new one ‘Way Down in the Rust Bucket’ was any good. No dice :(

Will just have to listen to the new one on a different streaming service over airplay or from my phone for now if I want to see if it’s any good.

Good thing I have Qobuz as well.

he's a good poster boy

Looks like it's fixed now. No more getting Ads.

Still ads here, but very annoying, from popups to scroll-downs. Embed them, sure, but this interstitial shit has to go.

Ads seem to be gone for me this morning. Sweet, thanks Admins!

I think I remember someone that wanted an Eitr on one of the threads

Yep, I guess so: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/schiit-happened-the-story-of-the-worlds-most-improbable-start-up.701900/page-4939#post-16257348

(Pouts) Optical input, meh, I wanted ADC on the analogue input to make it a full audio interface.
Interesting comment he makes about having a large stock of AKM chips. Good news for continuance of their other DS DACs.

Seems like red is gaining in popularity <cough ... Mercury Streamer ... cough>

Half way in, this might already be my favorite MTV Unplugged album. Basically a shorter, unplugged version of Ten (with State of Love and Trust thrown in), in PJ’s heyday.

It's fairly new. I got it as a Christmas gift, but it hadn't been out long.

Great album, for sure.

Pantera - Fucking Hostile

Pretty much anything Daft Punk

Santana - Abraxas - Black Magic Woman / Gypsy Queen. Especially Gypsy Queen. This one needs to be played at 13.

I hope he runs "sudo apt-get remove mqa" on all the servers

Oooo...removing MQA that would be a fantastic outcome!! Unlikely, but one can hope!

@Collusion I agree with you, but I feel tidal catalog gets bigger when they can say they have more advanced DRM on their platform. offering more premium services than others

I adore this album, best of 2021 for me. Strong Kate Bush vibes.

I’ve been listening since it came out and I love the sound!
