I finally finished book four of Peter V. Brett's Demon Cycle, posted about it on Facebook, and just the other day, Peter V. Brett himself liked my post. (fanboy swoon) Now started more M.R. Forbes on Kindle Unlimited (Balance already finished, 10% into Betrayal) and The Way of Kings.

Happy birthday, Tom! (party favour noise)

And I'm not reacting because I'm just spent and don't know what to say, so not saying anything. But I find these memes entertaining, so will keep posting them. And elsewhere, someone dubbed Armistice 'Istice'.

The only reason I knew of them is they were local and I knew one of the members of the band. No need to be ashamed. Glad you like them.

Nine Inch Nails, Broken, although not purely metal (metal/industrial crossover), has some damn fine production. My personal favourite is Oracle Moon by Garden of Shadows. Whoever produced that album understood the concept of overhead and gain staging, because one can really hear deeply into the mix. I've been listening to Underworld's Dubnobasswithmyheadman Super Deluxe Edition on and off all day. This was such a departure from their previous albums when it came out, that it still stands out as my favourite, by a long shot.

Soon...

Condolences to you, too. Yeah, that'd be a tough one. Not my sister, but my heart goes out to the people in Oakland affected by this: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2016/12/03/least-9-dead-oakland-warehouse-party-fire/94881696/

R2R DAC discussion continues here

Wasn't very PC back then, neither, that's what made it so funny. RIP Manuel

"...Knot!"

Fuck!!!

I always thought that was a euphemism for something else...

What about a discrete DAC? Does anyone make one of those? And would it even sound good?

Well at least you're taking it well. No, seriously, who would take care of the kittehs if you got shipped off? Do your duty, take care of the kittehs!

Condolences and eventual cheers, guys.

I'm in the wrong fucking business. "Pay us for what we do!", not whether or not it accomplishes anything.

I will do this if weather and health &c. permit. #friendshipismagical

I want to get another pair of rechargeable batteries and rotate between the two -- Alkaline, Lithium, or NiMH? Do I need to make sure they can deliver a certain amount of amperage, or is there another spec I need to look at? Are there certain brands that are known not to fit? It's fairly tight in there. Powerex has 9.6V 23mAh, and 8.4V 300mAh, for examples. Are either disrecommended, the one that's over, or the one that's under? Tenergy and PowerAdd have some that are stated at 600mAh. @justin ...(or anyone else)...can you give any insight on what the different voltage ratings can do to the amp? I know it would never hurt to have more amps on tap, except that might also affect its physical dimensions, but I do not know what underpowering or overpowering the voltage will do. Wait, so the headamp site says: So I'm confused about the alkaline, but it sounds like I can use anything.

Happy birthday, Gene! (party favour noise) Haven't heard from you in a while, hope you're well!

ARP used to do that, too.
