Tried a relatively new restaurant near us, Kirkwood. Short rib and old fashioneds very respectable. Service was super. HS

I’ve just finished binge watching Ann Droid. More than entertaining, I’d say.

Last night's fresh caught walleye fry. My sister in law and I caught them and cooked them up.

Unholy carp!

I'm looking forward to those as I'm slowly working on my own version just for me, i.e. fixing how they sound. :) I got these recently: https://poloyoaudio.store/products/hongshu-eh1 It is my third one of these as they design has been maturing over the years. I'm waiting on a replacement set as mine had some noise issues in one driver so I'll do a proper write up as they arrive but I do like them a lot. The earpads are crap but there is a lot of potential there.

More Bill Evans, Nardis - 1970

The Bay Area instance of The Spazzmatics. Chain Band? Think Blue Man Group.

Here’s one of my secrets - I’ll take Coltrane and Bill Evans over Miles Davis any day. That’s probably little to do with the artists, but damn is this album great (the cover art is not)

He's so polite and professional. I really enjoyed this. Unrelated: math rock

Very nice! But....needs more cowbell 🤣

Bill Evans - Suicide is Painless (from You Must Believe in Spring)

This is the best worst thing you'll see today. In 1989, the Stone Roses blew the fuck up and became a household name in their native England overnight. They appeared on national television: "Made of Stone" is one of their most emotional tracks. I've been a fan of it since I got their debut album in the very early 90s. Seeing them perform it live in their prime would be amazing. They're not lip syncing. Score! Oh wow, they're doing a rendition much slower than the album version. This is going to be great ....oh shit. (There's a reason the video is only 2 1/2 minutes long.) Also the 1080p upscaling is ass, but that's a small matter.

I usually go for the lobster roll, but I might have to try that next time.

I miss Dr Leo. Thanks Internet.

OMG. How did I not know about this and him? Thank you. Plowing through the Riz Ortolani YT channel now.

One for @blessingx -- possibly an all-time disconnect between vibe and content.

Yes, those. Will have a look with the scope on the output but it'll be a while, I've put this project away for a few days while waiting for the right top and bottom chassi plates.

Finally The Unsung Adventures of Punch Brothers by Punch Brothers (2026) https://open.qobuz.com/album/itmcb0mrpbqud Example: I have been waiting for this since April. Of course I am happy about the addition of Brittany Haas to the crew, being a long term fan. They do plenty of the Punch Brother's alt-folk things. All instrumental this time.

Python Script Remix Vol.10 - Sonic Youth “This mix is part of our "Python Script Remix" ongoing series. Process : 1. First we made a parallel mix of the 13 tracks from Sonic Youth's album "Goodbye 20th Century" (released in 1999 on Sonic Youth Records). 2. Then we applied various effects to the mix through a Python script, such as a subtle pitch shift with extended feedback, a slow time-stretch with noise-heavy textures, a slow spectral feedback, a smooth saturation with harmonic enhancement, a natural high-pass filter, a wide low-pass filter, a soft EQ, a slow spatialization with noise-based trajectories, a transparent limiter and a fade out. This remix is conceived as a spectral extension of "Goodbye 20th Century", it is a work of amplification, stretching, densification, and slow spatialization, yet without altering the original aesthetic.”

Agreed on all accounts.

Sometimes you just want to watch a man repair a kitchen knife - there are a lot of fake restoration and repair videos online, but this one is like relaxing ASMR - never abuse a fine knife like this:

Fish (Taco's) & Chips

yep exactly. on the back of the board as close to the output pins as possible.

Just to confirm, do you mean adding a .1 to 1 uF ceramic capacitor directly across the RKZE-1515 isolated supply output (+15V to -15V) that powers the CCS section?

A few years back I discovered a newish country singer named Charlie Crocket. I've become a big fan, and today I went to see him play at Stern Grove Festival in San Francisco. It's an outdoor, kind of natural amphitheater. Nicki Bluhm opened for him and both artists were great. It was a long day but well worth it!

I’m still working on the above. It’s sort of a known issue (main page image funkiness) but the posted solutions don’t work for the specific issue that we have. I need to join the support forum for the software platform and I’ll see if anyone there can point to an actual solution. What is supposed to work is at the “user level” where if you click your own name at the top of the main page you’ll see a Theme Editor option which is supposed to allow you to be able to configure what you see/don’t see. I haven’t found a way that productively helps with the mobile version of the site and can’t find a way to set a tiny image as the stock forum image so at least the view might condense down while we find a better solution.

Thought I never shared pictures of my build, et voilà. Those 3.5 and 4.4 input connectors on the front do really a pragmatic job... I fit a normal bias plug (thanks @JoaMat) so the writing is now aged 😁
