What did you do today?
I oftentimes have dinner for breakfast, sometimes I have lunch for breakfast. Then I have lunch at dinnertime, and foods usually associated with breakfast for "midnight snack". And then for tea, I have well tea, actually. As in the drink. As in, it's not a meal. For me.

Bloody Hell -- Raal ribbon headphones
I didn't get the impression from the article that "being sidetracked" had anything to do with it -- it sounds like he constantly has multiple projects going on. The issues were twofold -- he had heard that same study about magnets close to the head issue, and is looking into it (also shielding, and then the weight problem); and amplification (ribbons, of course, require special amplification) -- I'm assuming it's the same issue as with ribbon speakers -- I.E. the low impedance presented across the frequency spectrum, but have not received confirmation.

Fuck in snow
I have a thermal undershirt on today, because the office gets cold after 7 or so (I think they turn the heat down). I'm comfy for now. Wow, that was poetic. Nice imagery.

Bloody Hell -- Raal ribbon headphones
According to this page (buried in the last paragraph), he hasn't forgotten about them. But the news is not good. I still say Smeggy should test them out.

The Orthodynamic Thread
What is this superfelt? Is this some sort of extra special acoustic felt, or is it just a certain type of felt that I can pick up at the local G Street Fabrics?

Bloody Hell -- Raal ribbon headphones
The response I got from Alex echoed the response that Srajan got initially, so I wouldn't be surprised if his interest waned again.

see bottom of page I've actually known about these since October, but missed the fact that it was public information.

Your recent music purchases
Mystified, Pulse Ringer Pieces -- fell in love with this ambient music via Magnatune. (Actually, I haven't bought this yet, but it's imminent.)

What did you do today?
Condolences. I just brought my mom home from the hospital and got my allergy shot. I could come to hate these, I always feel like crap for days afterwards.

There's something wrong in Colorado...
If the third party was a licensed escrow service, no, but if he's just a random so-and-so, yes -- trust. What if something happens to the amp between when SP lets it go and the owner receives it -- who is responsible?

What about the Crystal Clear speakers? You guys are worthless.

slow forum
I hate when that happens...when my arms fall off in the middle of doing push-ups...

The Orthodynamic Thread
You guys... I do have access to a camera with a decent macro, but I don't know how soon I will be able to have access to it, so, again, I'll see what I can do. I've never taken a headphone apart before. I'm scared. Hold me.

2009 Rock -n- Roll Hall of Famers
I follow a lot of music-related pop culture, and I even I don't care about the rock 'n' roll hall of fame.

The Orthodynamic Thread
(le sigh) Not sure I have any cameras with a decent macro...(which I only just learned about this weekend is a requirement to take the kinds of pictures you-all're looking for)...

The Orthodynamic Thread
Thanks for the pics/guide, guys, I'll definitely give it a try. OTOH, my T40RP's distinctly say, "Mk II" right on the box, so maybe not.

Conversations with the God-robot Alice
Not a particularly good one, but there were two highlights:
-
PS-1s for sale on the 'Bay
Well that's alright then.
-
PS-1s for sale on the 'Bay
I hope you all get banned from eBay.

Well, at least he's telling you that he hasn't shipped them yet...that's a step in the honest and communicative directions, if nothing else.

What are you listening to Part Two
I've got "smells like semen/sounds like semen/smells like semen" stuck in my head right now. Might have to whip out the iPod.

What did you do today?
Visited my mom in the hospital. She's fine. It gets tiresome, repeating this, but you never know when it's going to be the real one. It was nice to see her network of friends and church parishioners at work in full force.
