Which Cooking Are You?
Jacob, now that you're back, will you please share with me your instructions for consistent caramelized onions? I vaguely remember you telling me once, but I think that post got nuked. Do you use water or not? Garlic, too, if you do caramelized garlic. Al, that looked great, I'm sure it was fine. What rub are you using? I wouldn't compare yourself to the brisket fairy, that'd be like me comparing my guitar playing to David Gilmour or Al Di Meola. Yeah, I just called Naaman the guitar hero of brisket.

What are you listening to Part the Third
That's exactly what I like about synthpop. There is something pure about synth tones.

A belated groovalicious bumpitude!

Streaming player (Sony Walkman) vs. iPhone 6 for Tidal
I'm pretty sure they're in cryogenic suspension.

What are you listening to Part the Third
I listen to their later stuff all the time. To me, there's an abrupt dividing line between their early, Krautrock material, and their later, synthpop material. That dividing line was Autobahn. Side one signified the beginning of their synthpop period, while side 2 was the last remaining dregs of their earlier, more "electro jam band"/friends getting together and just making random tunage phase.

I need to pull out my early Kraftwerk (1, 2, Ralf und Florian, and Organisation).

Streaming player (Sony Walkman) vs. iPhone 6 for Tidal
Walkmans are digital now, you're showing your age. Actually, I might need to get something -- I have already an iPod Touch, but am considering a Fire HD or one of the smaller Fire tablets (I can get a pink one for $50!) for toting to work... Is there a case for the iPod Touch like there is for the iPhone? They're no longer the same size...

Mucho Cars on Tidal.

Apple specs out Lightning headphone output
IIRC, Justin's problem with not having done this already was the Apple licensing deal, IE the logo, not the actual technology. But feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, that was several years ago...

What are you listening to Part the Third
I have not. Added to my bucket list. (facepalm) So incorrect. So very, very incorrect. I have them all on HDCD. EDIT: Well not all -- the first five.

Apple specs out Lightning headphone output
Actually, I was noticing that the headphone jack was becoming a encumbrance against making it thinner, so it makes sense that they'd eschew it entirely, and just have a "breakout" cable/box. Big opportunity for Justin to make an iOS compatible DAC/amp.

What are you EATING right now?
Hey, yeah! It's labeled Thai, but for all we know, it's repackaged Chinese squid, how'd we white devils know the difference? Are you sure they're not pulling something over on you? And what about Thai basil...

How the fuck are you supposed to be able to listen to phone calls without headphones?!?!? Aye keed, aye keed, obviously hipsters need to take 12 megapixel selfies more'n they need to hear the other person speaking. Aye steel keeding!

Post what you're watching
Yeah, they said I might like it, and I do, though I'm in the middle of Penny Dreadful right now, so will probably finish that first. I think I watched one or two episodes. But now I got Blacklist season 3, too...argh...

The merits of upsampling
That's one of them rhetorical questions, innit?

The analog thread.
Is that like the zpizza, only a phono pre?

I'm right at the part where they start covering "Smells like Teen Spirit" intermixed with "Kenka Joutou". (!!!)

Dude's playing a 7-string! \m/ And this is delightfully silly: And his song titles seem to be designed for Spotify: (Looks Like) Somebody Got Ahead of Schedule on Their Medication

Pixel -- slightly more experimental jazz trio -- followed me on Soundcloud (which is sometimes meant as a request to follow back, so I always listen first, was immediately taken by their wildness.
