As many of you know i have been searching high and low for the world's best headphones. I have finally found them.

No air filtration? Meh

I wonder if the earlier prototypes had more time?

Doug has kitty visitors, we have coyote visitors. At noon no less.

Needs more coconut audio devices.....

Finally went out and saw a concert last Friday -- Zombi -- multi-instrumentalist (synths, bass, and the occasional sax) and drummer -- was a great first concert

A little retro, a little quirky and a little twinky. All of my favorite things in a band.

First testdrive with amps and psus hacked together. Works fine! Input voltage for the 78/7912 dropped to 31V DC. That's great! Did a few hours of listening - no flaws to be heard. Had some great fun there and quite forgot that I was testing a new amp! A tiny bit of 50Hz mains voltage hum to be heard, but that's probably because of no shielding at the moment. Next: integrate the headphone protection board...

Placing here as we don’t have a what are you not eating now thread, but came across this this morning at 7 Eleven. When did we start caffeinating donuts?

One of the better articles on what's happening in Russia. For me it was rather sobering. I hope Google translate does a passable job - https://faridaily-substack-com.translate.goog/p/--3c3?_x_tr_sl=ru&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wapp

Wow. I just learned that a woman I knew in the mid-late 00s during the heyday of the 413 drum n bas scene died in January. She was only 38. The scuttlebutt, which I take with a dump truck sized grain of salt is that she got ahold of some cocaine laced with fetanyl. I have no idea if that's remotely true. Vicky was a wild an hedonistic girl in her 20s, but I never saw her hanging out with the cokheads. What I remember about her was energetic, outgoing, uninhibited and uninterested in what other people thought of her. She led charge among her group of friends on events like Camp Bisco (a huge music festival revolving around the jam band the Disco Biscuits) or just local DNB weekly event. I know she rubbed a few people the wrong way, especially men who had a higher opinion of themselves than she did. Certainly 38 is entirely too young an age for anybody to go, especially a speeding bullet like Victoria. Somewhat related, a dnb DJ I knew died last November, days after he turned 44. His death was definitely due to a fetanyl overdose. That shit is everywhere, being used to lace all sorts of things where one would not expect to find a synthetic opiate and it's frighteningly deadly.
