  1. RIP Chuck.
  2. I purchased a Pono player at the Kickstarter phase. The damn thing sounds really good, I guess the Hansen engineering had something to do, but other than the couple of Herbie Hancock albums this edition had loaded, I haven't been tempted to buy any of the Pono's music. Since it has a big capacity due to the support of microSD cards up to 128GB, I use it when away from home for a few days. Not using it on daily commutes, the shape is just nuts and very impractical. I wish they had made it in a regular flat prism shape.
  3. It looks interesting and makes a lot of sense. I'm rather happy with the Anaxilus mod on mine, but TBH I'm not listening much with headphones, and most of the times I do on commute with IEMs, or with Stax at home. Sorrodje, have you ever tried the silicon tips of the Klipsch IEMs? I'm curious if you chose the Shure ones for some favorable difference over the Klipsch or Comply ones.

    Best wishes, Nate, and all the northern pals.
  5. Thundercat - Drunk I was expecting a lot more from a "genius" behind the success of Kendrick Lamar. I can't help experiencing that sort of "heard it all before" feeling in a Doobie Brothers-Stevie Wonder kind of way.
  6. Happy Birthday, Laura!!! we miss you.
  7. Happy Birthday, Bonnie!
  8. Phronesis - Parallax (2016) This album is also available at Bandcamp. I've enjoyed it a lot.

    I had to search for it, since I didn't recall the specifics of the mechanism. The Wikipedia article seems well documented and more or less confirms your statement. Maybe is not as much a matter of the number of receptors as about their shape and affinity for the virus. I think your 100% top preference has been a determining factor for you weren't exposing potential skin or mucous wounds to the fluids carrying the viruses from your partner. It's possible you can get a blood test to know if you are a carrier of the CCR5-Δ32 mutation on your T-cells. These tests are much cheaper now.
  10. Happy Birthday, Nate!!! I wish it's a great day.
  11. RIP Horace.
  12. Happy Birthday, Craig!!!

    Hugs, Steve. Living in fear is tough, but dying alone like a leper is worse. It speaks spades of you that you cared of your friends, and that you keep the memory of those days alive.
  14. Wonderful news, congratulations!!!
  15. Good luck, Jacob. Your landlord seems stupid evicting you instead of the other neighbour Any chance the building is Trump's
  16. RIP Bill Paxton. Too young
  17. Happy Birthday, Naaman!!! In this very moment I'm toasting to yours with some delicious rye. It's great it's Sunday, have a great day
  18. Mercedes said that the new car would be able to get an 5 seconds improvement average on most tracks, depending on how behave the new tyres. That will put a lot more of stress and difficulty on the drivers. I like the new looks, the McLaren seems very nice in orange. We'll see how they go. I try to keep expectations low, but I can't help being hopeful for an interesting season.
  19. Well, actually chicharrones are more like these thick pieces of bacon slices (panceta) fried until they're crusty and crunchy. Those things that Al is eating are just "cortezas" it's the skinny part of the chicharrón, fried until it gets foamy and crunchy.
  20. I'm listening to that Hendrix. Awesome. Before I've been listening to Dusty's recommendation of Snarky Puppy's "Family Dinner" which is great, the full album on videos is up at Youtube
  21. They're great, they blend with the orchestra in a way that very few jazz ensembles achieve. Their sound is solid and the music has that jazzy groove that I miss in many "fusion" bands. I must investigate them further, definitely
  22. I'm listening to the Snarky Puppy with the Metropole Orkest that Dusty mentioned elsewhere in this thread or another one. Recorded in 2015 I hadn't heard of them before. Thanks, Dusty.

  25. Happy Birthday!!!
