  1. Where the hell should this thread go? Any thoughts on Schiit’s new “universal surround” dac/preamp/headphone amp? https://www.schiit.com/products/syn Some development history over on the other site (linked in announcement email).
  2. Probably best to A/B to be sure. How was the show?
  3. I wear that hat often. In a group chat yesterday I posted "I guess Leica is out of business". It went similarly.
  4. Okay, my jokes don’t always land.
  5. Leica once again copies Pentax
  6. Get your monochrome camera here - https://pentaxrumors.com/2023/04/12/ricoh-announces-new-pentax-k-3-mark-iii-monochrome-dslr-camera/
  7. I dunno. Steve it's kind of you to be considerate of the experience and potential power imbalance, but I gotta say aren't you assuming a little about pseudo fathers and fragility and how it applies in his case? Maybe it's true, but maybe he just kinda likes specifically you. And you wouldn't be you at a more matched age. Also maybe some protective "not good at relationships" stuff to get past too? Tread caring and carefully and see where it leads?
  8. FIFY Oh, these videos are getting too common lately. 🫣
  9. It sadly took Emahoy Tsege-Mariam Gebru dying two weeks ago at 99 for her to show up on my radar. Listen to a short interview with her on the BBC, The Honky Tonk Nun.
  10. It was kinda fun to watch The Hummingbird Project (Hulu) right after.

  13. It’s coming.
  14. Dave! Dave! Dave!
  15. Noticed the pilot is on YT if anyone is interested. It was a lot of fun.
  16. Seems like your fear may be founded, but if you want to experiment (with work/friends newer laptop). Mostly obvious stuff, but worth a look. M
  17. Yep, no Mac app. Not sure if there are plans for it. Strangely I tend to listen to classical over speakers and when using speakers I tend to use Airplay with phone. When listening to headphones I tend to use laptop. Generally I’m adapting better to Apple Music this round, though do prefer the more album focus of Qobuz (though even they are changing).
  18. RIP Klaus Teuber, protector of sanity during the pandemic (aka inventor of Settlers of Catan) https://www.npr.org/2023/04/05/1168256131/catan-board-game-klaus-teuber-dies https://www.gameshub.com/news/news/catan-creator-klaus-teuber-passes-away-age-70-2612253/
