I'll be interested to see how open market values stack up against the Apple trade-in pricing, which is $600 for an XS Max.

iPhone 11 Pro Max is a bit of a mouthful but OK, I'm in. I mean, 4-5 hours more battery life -- what? https://www.apple.com/iphone-11-pro/ Upgrade from a comparable (256GB) Xs Max is $649 after trade-in if anyone else might be interested. There's an option to finance at 0% APR for 2 years, which comes to $27.04 a month. Guessing a lot of folks out there will jump on the latter?

Just ordered London/Wales and The Americans on Amazon. RIP.

OK, fired up the BHSE for the first time in months and listened to this new Tool album quite loud and my conclusion was I should get back into this headphone shit.

Well done Nate!

I’m sorry I must have misheard that gentleman. Didn’t say “starting at $150K” did he? I guess it's a good thing Porsche options are so reliably reasonably priced ... Edit: Specced one out in Dolomite Silver with all the toys and it's pretty sweet but actually North of $185K. Oof.

Unless all you have is Kansas and Diana Krall -- and who am I to judge -- that's not particularly random.

I would totally watch a bunch of these movies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2G9qar-yKw

More characteristically. She really is something.

Bit of a change of direction.

So. Much. Butthurt.

That would be the King.

Speaking of prog (bit metal). Enjoying the latest King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard -- Infest The Rat's Nest.

This is the least Head Case thing I have ever read.

Very ... of its time.

Happy Birthday Ian!

Needz moar toobs.

In light of the sad news today.

Well looky here.

He did a very good podcast recently with a longevity/wellness expert I follow and sounds like top bloke too (he’s a Brit). It’s in three parts and I’ve linked the opener below. https://peterattiamd.com/matthewwalker1/

“Why We Sleep” by Matthew Walker. One of the most profound and illuminating books I can remember reading in recent years. (It’s not a rhetorical question either, he is one of the world’s most eminent researchers in neuro-imaging.)

Wow.

I dig it.
