I figure the homepage is a necessary SEO evil. And while *ideally* such content or ads don't appear anywhere on the site, you can't possibly run a site like this without someone footing a big bill in cash/time. Which is why I don't begrudge this site being $ponsored, or even the occasional MOT thread, bc unlike sales-fi, we all see the benefit. Now I'd feel differently if MOT content wasn't clearly labeled as such.

I didn't know this was an option. Regardless, we will not be doing this.

Good thing I - like some others - do not visit the home page

Bahhhh!! Sending this out to everyone in my theological master thesis right now!

This is basically a measure of how nice you are as a person. I’m obviously not nice. I guess I need therapy.

Everybody needs therapy these days. Start with a song that makes you feel good and share it. Be it old school doom from Slayer or tasteful Disco from those Daft Punk French dudes...

That's all I do...scroll around read and like things. Isn't that what this place is for?

Oh I found the thread

I had never herd of Elrog. They look hot.

Just my idea of things, a high roller should know all the different element of an amp/component especially with tubes to avoid being screwed intentionally or otherwise. Elrog tubes need ventilation at the bottom, Thomas changed the design of 211/845 to account for such half inserted designs. His ultracapacitors PSU looks cool, I didn't care for an ultracap psu myself.

It’s easy to look at a piece and judge the “build quality” in terms of components, even board layout, etc. hard to know how the topology sounds

Ya, it is not active afaik, but being directional seems to be enough to reject mechanical keyboard noise - that has been very helpful for gaming sessions and work calls. That being said, having it strapped to an HD650 which has actual resolution unlike most headsets ... has been a "treat" of hearing some folks use fairly bad microphones and exactly how nasty that can be.

Bose 700, no boom mic (it has ~8 mics though). Totl Sonys and these were great for portable and noise canceling. Nice SQ all things considered.

I saw that, but it looks like the cut away the foam too, so impossible to get a good seal.

Look at the "audio" version. the "Sports" version has the cutouts.

Ah, thanks!

International equity markets were largely up today, and Treasurys are holding up just fine. Why it's important to diversify! ;)

I want it so I can play some Priest.

Slaying.

He's great, and probably the closest living voice to Freddy's. I believe he was involved in the recent Queen movie. Sadly, still a tier or two below Freddy.

Rewatching Freddy now, that became clear.

I'm not surprised. MS is trying very hard to get rid of the VB Script nightmare attached to natively supporting that format.

There's a joke somewhere about Apple usually being slow to adapt to new tech but being quite good at it once they do :P

I remember saving programs on cassette on my Commodore 64. I guess you can cut vinyl as well if you had a lathe. Weird and crazy.

With my Samsung S10+, I thought I could not live without a Home button. Apparently I can. Just swipe. Face recognition. Although it does not work with a mask or for your high security types.

No evidence Apple will go smaller than 5.4” anytime before 2023, and even then it seems doubtful.

The next phone I have, will have a home/main menu (remember Symbian?) button and I will turn off face-recognition if possible. Too much hassle for me. Too many features at the cost of convenience in recent years...

Thanks. NACC Chart bookmarked.

Don't forget about Paul~

Yikes, looks like we're in for a rough couple of months: https://www.calculatedriskblog.com/2020/10/october-24-covid-19-test-results.html

Do you also get a turtle-neck?
