  1. This looks and smells amazing! Just letting it cool a bit before diving in. Firstly I must admit to altering the recipe on the first trial. I had some breakfast sausage on hand, so I cooked, crumbled and drained off the fat ahead of time, then added on the final blend of ingredients.

  2. 50yo album time Autobahn by Kraftwerk (1974) https://album.link/i/726154713 (and yeah I don't know why they don't list QOBUZ as well) Example (THE track): This album is a lot more playful that I remember. I was very used to the later works where they seem more serious.

  4. Jon Batiste - Beethoven Blues You can find it at most streaming services and Qobuz (I still don't get why Odesli won't link Qobuz pages). TBH I listened to it yesterday and mostly to please a friend who had listened to it and thought it is awesome. I always have certain prevention against jazz or pop albums trying to make something worthy from classical music, especially the one that I find the work of a genius. As much as I tend to dislike pop/jazz/rock played in a classical arrangement, like those abominations of The Beatles for string quartet. This album is something else, yet not fully to my liking. I enjoyed very much a couple of tunes, others were just fine and there were like three that could have been not recorded. If someone listens to it, I'd love reading your thoughts.

  7. Cut a square, heat in microwave for 30sec or so, place on toasted english muffin or biscuit (if you're feeling lucky) = near instant egg sandwich.

  8. What a deligtful game this is. I was smiling the entire time, including as the Raiders March played over the end credits. Raiders is my favorite action movie ever, so I am very much the target audience for this one.

  11. That one interested me too. Is it short? $70 for a short game/story was my only concern.

  13. I took a look online and I think the Panasonic DP-UB450P-K (previously only available in Europe) and the optional disc drive on the Sony PS5 Pro (the same one they used for the PS5 Digital, about $80 USD) might be the last "new" 4K Blu-ray players selling. Most of the other models (you may have heard LG just discontinued Blu-ray) are old and the newest 4K players were first released 5 or 6 years ago.

  14. I watched two episodes, sometimes shows need the benefit of the doubt for they get better into the season. This wasn't the case. For me one of the failures is that I can't believe Keira Knightley delivering such tough punches and kicks. I didn't make through the second season of the Diplomat either. The first season was just OK and had hopes the second was going to be entertaining, but I got bored by the end of the first episode. I'm getting old I guess.

  15. I'm fascinated by this one. I made it through about half of the first episode. I thought it was the single worst thing I have tried to watch in as long as I can remember. Just horrible. A bad parody of a terrible show. About half the reviews seem to agree with me. The other half seem to find it to be campy great fun. I guess it just depends what you want from TV?

  18. I had a couple of Canon P&S, they made very nice looking pictures, the color to my eyes seemed very natural, but both died from the same mechanical issue. The zoom lens wouldn't come off the body. Were I to give a P&S these days to a rookie photographer, I think my choice would be a Sony RX100V. The V has a wider aperture than the VII, so better low light performance. It has an EVF and a flash, and can be found new for less around 800€, so in the US probably below $800.

  19. What serious headcaser doesn't keep all the original packaging and components in a drawer "just in case" "it might be useful" Plus a hard case, (franiec?) grip, and card reader because: d-_-b As new condition? You be the judge. As for shipping it all, @MexicanDragon would approve. Or in freedom units As for the does it still work question. Well the battery charges. Although given it's age you might want to get some more new NB-6L compatible batteries and a charger to avoid disappointment, Likewise for the SD cards. Does it still work? Well it powers up, takes pictures and (720p!) video, And the SD card mounts in the reader as an external drive , where you access the .jpg and raw/cr2 files Image quality looks good MVI_1357.MOV
