Actually this is for yesterday.  I think I win the "hottest bike ride" award.

Yeah you do. Mine was considerably cooler (nearly 50F).

 

 

Well you out distanced and out climbed us so there's that.

Went to the locker this afternoon. Among others there was this

Spent most of the day reviewing and approving English transcriptions and Spanish (Latin American), French (France), German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), Hindi, Italian, Dutch, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese translations for several dozen videos. Really wish I could read Spanish (Latin American), French (France), German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), Hindi, Italian, Dutch, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.

Aw, they look good. Approved. 

Decided to take trip back in time so I downloaded a copy of dbpoweramp and ripped all of the CDs that have accumulated over the last couple of years. Halfway through I also had to replace my cheap-ass DVD writer with this

which worked really well.

I've been doing the same thing Jim!  I picked up one from Pioneer that opens up so that disk don't get stuck inside.   Works well but man is ripping CDs slow.  I've set up a Roon server on my imac since it is on all the time and got a 2 bay RAID 1 harddrive that is networked and is in the closet.  Roon is fucking awesome!  Love been able to steam music anywhere in the house I want! 

Planning to replace my Airport Express (ethernet to optical) with the Rasberry Pi + Ropiee (eithernet to USB) that Marc suggested so I can get hires in the music room. 

Today, I moved around my headphone setups  for kicks (one at my desk and one in the music room).   Decided that the GS-X mk2 needed to be near its cousin BHSE.   Plus, it is a good way to procrastinate grading. 

 

 

I think you may need another DAC. #TheNextDinny

 

Planning to take the extra M51 to my office but it's been a while since I've been there. 

@shellylh - I love that you have an extra M51. 

Holy moly, Shelly, your rigs are amazing. BHSE, GS-X mk2 and a Doug Savitsky special! I love it all!

Setup a Raspberry Pi + Ropieee network audio bridge for my music room setup. Super easy to put together and works great. Thanks for the tip Marc!

What a nice idea, getting mine up and running, too....  Thanks to Marc from me as well!

Got my pretty new PSU cables put in. I need to train the wires going to the GPU a little better, I'll do that when the new case fans arrive in a couple days.

Let's make that a triple.

Now I want a raspberry pie.

I want one too!

Spent the day between work stuff transferring all my favored artists and albums on Tidal over to Qobuz. It's still missing artists, but prefer the interface, suggestions and cheaper price. Then went over to Tidal to unsubscribe, and see I'm on a veteran's discount plan and it's actually much cheaper. Damn, now what?

Got up early to ride out to the coast.  Stupid weather won't wake up to the fact that it's may. It was 30F when I left the house at 5:40.  Still, view was nice.  @Augsburger - I won the coldest ride challenge today.

I hate agreeing with Graham, so I'm just going to say that he agreed with me, just a hair earlier.

I've been doing a give-them-both-a-month paid trial since October. 🤷‍♀️

Approximately three, that is.

Three that you inspired.

Actually, mine will arrive soon as well. 

Thanks Marc!
