@shaizada you still looking for cassettes?

No you don't.

Just trying to keep up, dude.

Or not. Others are reporting differently. I'm so tired. If I never hear the words sample rate or bit-perfect again, it'll be too soon

That Renault v6 was a pos.

The speedometer only goes to 85, they had to fit a new speedometer for the movie

In those days, many cars that were much faster had 85mph speedos. Think it was a stupid dot thing.

LOL ... @Mithrandir41 often mentions Rush (the band), so I thought there was a reference to Neil Peart's lyrics in there somewhere. So I was wondering which song.

@gixxerwimp Resist, from Test for Echo

Hah, just having a little fun, knowing the fundamental law that all audiophile message boards must have at least 5 active members with extensive knowledge of the Rush catalog in order to remain atomically stable. SBAF still exists, hence one comes to chime in. And all is well in the universe.

Unlike us they all have actual jobs to go to ?

Same underground tracks are too cool, the "hivemind" can't handle it.. I guess it takes some time to get into these genres.

For me, a big part of the appeal with electronic music is in it's ability to continually throw me something that's alien to me. There are no limits to the possible sounds and combinations. So it can be a bit like going to a country that's the complete opposite of yours. Disorienting and mystifying at the same time. I expect that from it at times.

Yesterday I was listening some of my favourite British triphop collectives. Takes me back and I love it. Today it is a jazz playlist.

Homelander?

Actually, Slowhand was the most recent example to prompt the thought. But mostly because of the gnashing of teeth by his fans. Most of us have feet of clay sometimes.

Just because it is likely to be bullshit makes me no less curious.But it is why I said it would tempt me and not that I would buy it.

They should send it to me because I'm a super-mega-ultra-saiyan audiophile. Obviously I'm the most qualified

They should send a loaner unit for SBAF.

GET OFF MY LAWN YOU PESKY KIDS!

I have been noticing it more in the last couple days I think

@dncnexus I feel it comes in waves. A few good notable threads on the How to Win Friends and Influence People sub forum. Tons of what not to do. Even the legendary "Annoying cousin" title has been awarded if you look into it, they are still upset about it.

I used to think that there was freedom in nihilism, but that felt pointless :)

Epictetus recommended, "Cultivate apathy." But "apathy" is too literal a translation. "Lack of feeling" or "feelinglessness" is more precise. Feelings interfere with one's judgement / reason, which is the basis of freedom.

Self preservation. Literally.

Been stricken with the "the more you know, the more you know you don't know" thing even more than usual lately. Old age I guess.

When I was a kid I thought that Silver Surfer knew a hell lot of things at the same time he did not seem to be the merriest of the superheroes

"Ignorance is bliss" is real.

At this point, I care less than a little what I look like. Sexy? Hah, you a funny guy.

I'm very funny. I told myself that I'm fat this morning, but I still call myself a hair bitch. That's what my GF told me. I remember the days I was told an ugly motherfucker who should be shot. Who's has a real life job now haters!? :p

Shave the hair, keep the hat, add a spittoon. Done :P
