        Yeah, hopefully. First step, one is missing the fuses. Once I get the fuses, one channel still should be bad, but first need fuses. What is the difference between slow blow and fast blow fuses?

        Just thought of that because a guy got fired from his dream job for a years-ago "f**k the police" tweet and an "n---a" in a Kanye lyric he tweeted. Don't get fired 5 years down the road from your Sennheiser job for this shit. I can post a link about the story if you like.

        Most speakers on campus parties are bad. I just hear clipping, treble, and distortion.

        My wife didn't get her internship until after she graduated. Thankfully they let her walk with everyone else, but at the time there just wasn't much available in health/safety. Her internship was with Marathon and she still works for them 7 years later.

        If you have to choose between "socially prominent" and "has someone in my area of interest whom I will learn from," always choose the latter. Good mentoring is worth so much more than what some strangers think about where you go to get it.

        Vibrations…reminds me I just saw that Canon filed a patent which uses magnets to create a Hall effect for IBIS. All the existing systems use voice coils, which are bigger and less precise.

        For those moments when you _want_ vibrations in your electronics.

        Then you put it in the washing machine and hang it out to try, turn dirty into clean. Does a broom fit in a washing machine by the way or must you resort to hand wash?

        Sometimes what's needed is not necessarily less thinking, but careful thinking. The multitude of possibilities can be distracting, like many colored marbles all rolling at the same time. Try to figure out which of your ideas are similar or inter-related, and group them together. You might find that your thoughts distract you less.
