I concur. The power supply is only ever as good as the weakest link. Have you seen that shit that's in your walls? No power cord on earth (vague pun not intended but noticed, acknowledged and allowed) is going to improve on that, short of regenerating.

I cannot tell if this is an example of Poe's law or not. First thought was no, which progressed to maybe, and then onto wine.

Money shot for Grahame - our dessert at 3 Floyd's tonight. Ginger cake ice cream sandwich with wasabi cream. And it was awesome.

the clock actually goes back in time 88 femtoseconds. *refrains from making jitter joke*

Video of a lynx calling, taken by a Parks Canada employee in my neck of the woods. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlYL1F56fRg I've seen most of the coolest predators in this area (wolves, black bears, cougars, various owls), and the lynx is probably my favourite to see. They're just so damn awesome, and they don't panic and run away when they see people, so you can get a good long look at their behaviour.

Which fits nicely with the common perception that somewhere between 24/96 and 24/192 is where digital "works" . if you postulate that vinyl was evolved until it "worked", it makes a lot of sense. I tend to hold the notion that the same principle applies in photography. 35mm film was accepted because it was the minimum thing that generally "worked". so then you have the very fuzzy task of deciding at what point digital "works". Which certainly wasn't made any easier by the low sighted who claimed that 2MP was all the resolution that the human eye/brain could perceive and what not. It's very sad now to look at photos from that era. We we're a lot luckier in audio because a lot of the mess that was early digital was in the playback, so music from that period turned out to be just degraded, rather than lost altogether.
