Streamer/Airport Express Replacement?
The Sonos stuff also gets the job done and works great with airplay. I think the Sonos Port can do either digital out to a DAC or analog out to an amp and also works with airplay.

What are you listening to Part the Third
New 50th Anniversary Edition has a solid live show of them at Port Chester, NY from 2/21/71. Mickey Hart was out so really interesting to hear them with only one drummer.

While I'm personally partial to the soundtracks for the Clint Eastwood movies, few pieces of music get the emotions going like Mr. Morricone's Cinema Paradiso score. RIP.

Windows 10, v2004 update
I know these kinds of posts can be unhelpful, but I forced the 2004 upgrade on day 1 and have had no issues. FWIW I have pretty high-end pc and I mostly just use the MS office suite, listen to music, and play games.

Podcast Thread
I've enjoyed Michael Lewis' Against the Rules podcast the past two seasons. If you enjoy Michael's written work, you'll be right at home. First season was on the role of referees in American society, the second season was on the role of coaches. https://atrpodcast.com/

So they are really transitioning the entire mac lineup to ARM away from x86. WOW. I'll have my popcorn ready. What a gamble.

Get your game on!
Once again I'm just blown away by what is possible in these flagship gaming titles. The technical mastery, storytelling brilliance, art, design, music and attention to even the smallest of details all comes together to create an experience that just can't be had in other artistic mediums. What a ride The Last of Us 2 was. I came in skeptical that the game could have the impact of its predecessor, but the developers, in my opinion, have delivered a very fitting sequel to the beloved if controversial, original game. The emotional impacts were as compelling as anything I've played. To me, TLOU2 belongs in the conversation with the other prestige titles like Red Dead 2, God of War, Breath of the Wild and Death Stranding. This has been a truly amazing last few years for those of us who love games and are excited by seeing the medium pushed in new directions.

Wow, it is so good! I was 10 years old when the original came out and I can remember playing multiplayer against friends in the days when we had to manually dial each other's 28.8k modems. And with the remaster:
