^ Very fun read! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did, Doug!

RIP Ed Lee, the mayor of San Francisco. Died last night of a heart attack at 65 while he was out shopping for groceries. He was a civil rights lawyer before he became a career civil servant. Not everyone loved all his policies, but I think damn near the entire Bay Area thought Ed was a good guy. Very sad day.

The 2017 Game Awards VOD. They did a brilliant job with this. Deserving winners and amazing reveals throughout! https://youtu.be/Bs5Ml7_2wT0

Happy birthday!

I agree with everything Purk has been posting. That being said, some people really just don't like the 800/800S. Their loss. Different people like or are sensitive to different things. I don't think there is a "one size fits all" choice in this hobby. I personally think a well amped 800/800S stands toe to toe with just about anything that isn't a 007/009 on one of the mega KG amps.

Happy birthday, Tom!

New stuff from Bonovox and co.

Happy birthday!

Another vote here for makemkv. I've used it for years to rip my dvds and blurays to a plex server.

The 6ths, Wasps' Nests. 2017 Grammy Award Nominations are out. Goodness... I'm so out of touch.

This is a very fun read about the hardware inside the old Power Mac G5 towers and the state of the Mac/tech landscape in the early 2000s. http://women-and-dreams.blogspot.com/2017/11/apple-power-macintosh-g5-flame-on.html

Happy birthday, B-man!

Your desktop is broken. Not sure why you are smiling.

I think its the best device they've ever made. It is just stunning to use. It takes a week or so to re-train yourself to it. Once you do though, there is no going back.

Wayne Colburn showed off his WHAMMY amp at burning amp.

Bob Seger's catalog is finally on Tidal. Time for some Dad-Rock!

Oh, I know, Steve. Mind games ?

Happy birthday, Mr. Numbers!

The Oppo 205 does almost all those things at a fraction of the price...

He'd be struggling for a while, so at the very least I hope he is at peace now. RIP Malcolm. Hell ain't a bad place to be, or so they say?

Paging @MexicanDragon, Jeff needs help buying something you'd like to own!

Heck yeah, we are! You are welcome to drop in any time, Tyler.

If you are asking if they use their phones with the same cluelessness for good user habits that casual computer users had towards mid 90s era computers, then yes.

FWIW, I've had a lot of success helping family members with sluggish phones by backing up their phones to iCloud and then doing a wipe/restore from cloud backup.
