Makes me wish I played Killing Floor. I love British idioms. "Gormless tosser" Badger theremin FTWTF.

Oh, that's not so bad then. They could have done some clever "reveal" type situations in Cloverfield if they had done something like this.

I don't know if they're worth $4 each, but they're pretty freakin' good.

The Real Deal Veggie Chips, Sriracha flavored -- yummy

Talking Heads, "Born Under Punches"/"Crosseyed and Painless"/"The Big Curve"/"Houses in Motion", both from Remain in Light and from The Name of this Band is... -- quite possibly the greatest quartuple of songs from an album ever. Addictive to a fault.

For the Kickstarter, Enrico Colantoni (who plays Veronica Mars' father) posted his videos in the horrible format. I defended him. It's just a format -- who cares? When Stanley Kubrick shot some of his films in 4:3, he put bars on top and bottom to convert them to widescreen. I consider 4:3 the more correct way to watch those movies. Think of this as some kind of ridiculous Imax. Ric -- to 4K?!?!? What the L did you use as an upscaler/line double/quadrupler/16-tupler/whatever.

"The Island of Doubt It's like the taste of medicine" Talking Heads, "Crosseyed and Painless"

Antidote: The Name of this band is Talking Heads -- disk 2 (starting at Psycho Killer)

I think you meant Quadrupel.

Fuck, got a song stuck in my head -- from the 80's, I think, main lyrics go "stay with me (falsetto) won't you stay with me" in the chorus and either "write you a new song" or something like that in one of the verses (2nd, I think). Sounds like A-Ha or someshit. EDIT: Found it, Thompson Twins, "Hold Me Now".

Wha' abou' lasers?

I know what DXD is, I was asking when it was going to hit the mainstream and/or if it had started to hit already -- it's a logical progression from DSD, except in bit depth rather than frequency speed. DSD was originally a pro-side only archival format that just happened to cross over into the consumer realm.

Where does DXD come in? And you shouldn't call it 256xDSD, that makes it sound like it's 256-uple. It's DSD256. And: want. Also, "oven-controlled" is actually brilliant, in the old days, oscillators used to drift at different temperatures...although a crystal oscillator shouldn't drift.

Apop B, Welcome to Earth and then APBL2K I don't know why I love this (the studio album, Welcome to Earth) so much, but I do. It's divided distinctly into two parts -- the "hits" and the more experimental numbers. And it's not like it's divided evenly -- there are only 5 or 6 tracks that can be considered the hits, and they're not distributed evenly -- tracks 2, 3, 5, 8 and 10 (11 is questionable, and 7 is the ballad), but it really works for me like no other album they've done. Probably my favourite "futurepop" album. (Yes, moreso than any VNV Nation album.)

Poor bear. Poor rolly-polly bear. Probably put a hurtin' on that Russian car, too. Poor, poor, stupid, in-the-way bear. I miss Zeitgeist. I think I met Robin the one time I was there. Nothing special, she was just checking up on me -- I think she recognized me as a non-regular. I think that speaks well of her. And I didn't know Adam from Eve, so I thought she was just another bartender. It was nice weather the one time I was there. But now that I like IPA's, I really need to go back. And yes, I do remember having a Damnation at Zeitgeist. I think it was Friday the 13th, too. "Bacon crack"

Pricematch FTW

I downloaded it just in case I ever get the Mac Mini that I plan to eventually get. It was hard, though, I see what you mean about getting the page to load. NewEgg has WD Red 3TB for $131 on ShellShocker today only. Also (same page) black case with red lights for $50 after rebate, a USB 3.0 flash drive 32G for $18, a mobo, and a Black&Decker coffeemaker for $14 (for $14, you have to use instant [kidding {maybe}]).

Depends on the transfer, how Netflix ripped it (they ripped a lot of the early rips in low res, so more recent rips are typically better rips at least), time of day, etc. I've seen some pretty good videos in the middle of the night, for example. But my point stands -- bandwidth won't be the problem forever. And your point about "most people" is basically agreeing with my other point -- the market. I don't think HDTracks.com targets "most people", though. If your point could be extrapolated to all lossless tracks, then HDTracks wouldn't be able to continue to stay in business.

You could always install Windows 7 on your laptop.

Tobias: "Ah, Valentine's Day, when she..." (slips on martini, falls to floor) (from floor): "Was your mother here?" This is easily the cleverest show evar -- moar than Community. I mean, how many shows can make slapstick into intellectual comedy. That's fucking fine art right there. EDIT: S2E10 might be the funniest episode in the history of television.

's'not black enough. EDIT: No, wait a minute, yes it is.

I find that intriguing. Alas, he is not on Spotify. And One, Back Home ...and... VNV Nation, Automatic ...and now some Knife Party (dubstep). EDIT: Re: "Body Shop"/"Only Your Impression"/"Ride Little Pony" -- I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that this is a different Knife Party.

Pffft. That reminds me, I need to get away from Dell.

Dude, I believe the disbelief in that statement is older'n you are. Now get offa(l) my lawn before I sic the dog on ye.
