Did the “SF Stair Challenge,” a walk around San Francisco put on by a neighborhood advocacy group to promote making the City more walkable. This is a very cool route. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to explore some of the hills of the northern part of the City. https://abc7news.com/sf-stair-challenge-walk-san-francisco-what-to-do-best-walks/13181267/2 points

Okay I could not help myself. Build Me Up From Bones Sarah Jarosz 2013 https://album.link/i/1440726347 Example: I just marvel at the talent of the three members of I'm With Her. Together and as individual artists.1 point

Wake Me When It's Over I’m With Her 2023 https://song.link/i/1682394335 The one song: It is just a single, but I am hopeful from the image that there is an upcoming 'live at the Troubadour' release or something like that. Until then I have this on repeat for the afternoon. "I'm With Her covering the Willie Nelson song "Wake Me When It's Over", recorded live as a voice memo in January 2020."1 point

Same thing happened to Dave Swarbrick, violin player and singer in Fairport Convention. He used to make a joke of it and announce his demise before a concert, handing out signed copies of his obituary. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Swarbrick He ultimately did die aged 75. As a lifelong chain smoker, he had shot lungs, and after three tracheostomies used to perform with an oxygen cylinder and mask next to him that he had to puff on during a gig. He was a seriously determined performer. He needed a lung transplant to save his life, but our health service wanted nothing to do with him and a private operation was the only way. So the folk singing community held a series of concerts called SwarbAid to raise money for the treatment. That bought him 10 years, during which I saw him in a tiny folk venue with Martin Carthy a a year before Swarb actually did die. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Carthy1 point

Newer GRLVs have a place for a 10R directly on the board. Make sure you understand the AES48-2005 as well https://usermanual.wiki/Document/ShieldWiringOfBalancedInputsAndOutputsAes482005F.2144015621.pdf1 point

Just finished casing. Case size 360*270*86mm (inner 280*255*73mm) Dual GRLV ±30V Extra DC supply for attenuator, relay boards and Protector. Ship-in-bottle-like building experience with small cases and multi layer PCBs. Some very soft cables would make it easier. Difficult to adjust those trimpots on splitboards after casing. Better to do the adjustment before casing. Spider webs at the input state is a mess. Better-designed PCBs can reduce half of the cables. Will fix that after I get a new back plate and PCBs.1 point

I guess a square wave test using a srd7 and a decent amp Is in order. Add a srm1 mkIi just for reference. These two Setups are pretty much the rivals for this amp.1 point

This is an obscure one. Today I learned that Mario Rosa AKA Dr Mario died, before his 50th birthday. Dr. Mario gained some fame in the Los Angeles drum n bass scene in the late 90s and early 00s, as well as on mp3.com around the same time. I discovered him on that site, during an era when I'd make regular dives into their electronic music section. I actually contacted Dr. M once, asking him about a track that was only released in shitty, 128k mp3 format (a phenomenon regular listeners to my show will remember be talking about often.) He said he'd look for the originals of that track, but he never got back to me. I have one of his IRL friends on my FB friends list because many years ago, I went look for Dr. Mario and found his friend instead. I saw a post from said friend saying Mario had passed. At his best, Dr. Mario made frenetic DNB even by the standards of the genre. He crossed over into full on IDM territory, echoing the sounds of 90s Aphex Twin and Autechre, but with a deceptively deep sense of melody. Two of his best tracks are this one: This one was briefly popular on mp3.com around the year 2000. This one wasn't as well known, but I actually prefer it. It sums up everything that I like about his music. (Not even) 50 is entirely too young for anyone to pass, especially a talent like Mario's.0 points
