  1. Anja Garbarek, her entire oeuvre, inspired by the knowledge that Mark Hollis of Talk Talk helped produce it after his solo album. All three of her albums are quite good. I'm only familiar with My Favourite Things and Blue Train, what should I try next? Queuing up Birth of the Cool in the meantime -- Mark Hollis was definitely influenced by jazz during his latter actively musical years.
  2. Welcome to the 90's?
  3. Happy Birthday, Nate! (party favour noise)
  4. Um...no? Isn't that utilitarian more than vain? Or do you actually like the way it looks?
  5. Various artists, Spirit of Talk Talk -- goddamn, this is the best tribute compilation I've ever heard...but mostly if you love Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock -era Talk Talk. Moody, patient, atmospheric, jazzy, and above all, consistent. It works so well as an album.
  6. Melted lounge chairs...Dali-esque pics please? Oh and: :eep:^2. That's closer than I imagined. Knowing how much wood you probably have around, you're taking this a lot more calmly than...well, than I am. Sent frum mah phone-blet using Tapatalk.
  7. \m/ That reminds me, I need to download a lighter app for the next time they play a ballad at a concert I'm at.
  8. Thirty feet?!?!? :eep:
  9. Good to hear, I always thought it was quite elegant looking. In fact, I think when people say "gold on black", that's what I think of, and why I usually have a positive response.
  10. How many are in the manufacturer's packaging? 6? 12? It'd probably behoove to just get the same number. That said -- good to know. I'll get my hard drives from MicroCenter from now on. Not that I am not hard on drives.
  11. I find the easiest way to cut the cord is to stop caring about anything that is on television. I've got Community and Castle on Hulu, I miss Archer and...um...okay, just Archer, can't think of anything else I'm missing. Oh yeah, Parade's End. And yeah, I'll probably have to wait 'til 2015 to see stuff like Season 3 of Sherlock.
  12. ...and 2L and Wheatus. The problem is, DSD is good for recording and playback, but there's hardly anything else -- effects...mixing...Sony has been keeping such a tight reign on licensing that no-one wants to develop anything.
  13. Nice. I think those HDAD's are under-rated. I only have a couple of them, alas.
  14. Oh, is it on? Shit, here's to hoping I can find the first couple episodes... Spritzer did mention it, in response to something about Sherlock and Luther and something else someone else said -- Life on Mars, perhaps? No, something more recent.
  15. I'm going to call mine "honeypot".
  16. Enablers! The lot of you! Okay, yeah, me too. Lollers.
  17. I'm not familiar with Virtual Box, but the solution with VMWare would be to recreate the VM -- that's not as bad as it sounds, just start up the VM creation process, and when you get to the part about a boot disk, instead of saying "create a new one", say "use an existing one", then select the one you have. VMWare is smart enough to just use it after that. The drivers are all virtual on the hosted OS, so it's only VMWare that needs access to the "new" (different) drivers, then the software does the translation. You may want to look and see if VB has the same sort of thing. Of course, I'd use a copy rather than the actual .VMDK file (it'll be the biggest one), just in case it erases it, thinking that's what you meant.
  18. I think the regular II only does 44.1, whereas the II+ does...okay, no they both do 96kHz Sent frum mah phone-blet using Tapatalk.
  19. Dagnabit, that must've come out after I bought the pro. I would have wanted both 192 kHz and the full sized XLR connectors. Sent frum mah phone-blet using Tapatalk.
  20. You're welcome to give my HRT MusicStreamer Pro a spin. The only weakness it has is that the connectors are weird (mini-XLR) -- I have some, which I can also lend you. Oh, and USB-only.
  21. I has a sad.
  22. Well where do you think the overhead goes? Certainly not in Jobs' coffer. Too soon?
  23. It took me a while to figure out that that first pic was one of the onion rings -- great googly moogly! Want. Please fax.
  24. Yeah, definitely eschew a DJ table used for actual DJing if you're not going to use it for DJing. That said, most of the damage is going to be to the needle, I just wouldn't use that needle again. And the belt. Okay, maybe stick with 'eschew'.
