  2. The Night Manager (2016) Highly recommended
  3. Happy Birthday!
  4. The new Mac Studio is close enough for me right now. It's a bit overkill for my work, though.
  5. Happy Birthday!
  6. This one comes to mind:
  7. Tears for Fears' Favorite 5 Albums (Right Now):
  8. Happy Birthday!
  9. Happy Birthday!
  10. Happy Birthday!
  11. 8 1/2 Souvenirs – Twisted Desire Haven't enjoyed a new (to me) album this much in a long time. Cheesy, eclectic, and fun:
  12. Happy Birthday!
  13. I've found using Migration Assistant with a Time Machine backup works better than a Mac-to-Mac transfer, even with Ethernet cable. Moving to a different operating system is also dicey, so keeping each computer at the same version of macOS (if possible) reduces complications as well. FileVault also introduces its own issues, so I tend to keep it off if I'm thinking about transferring the system (Keychains can get messed up in the migration as well). I think macOS Monterey (12.2.1) is still buggy at this point, so Catalina and Big Sur are better bets for mission-critical systems.
  14. Happy Birthday!
  15. Happy Birthday!
  16. 8 1/2 Souvenirs – Happy Feet

    Me too... I thought the Pixies was closest to my kind of music in that list (and it's still not that close).
  19. If this had a microphone, it would be a great subject for one of those Russian reversal jokes... As it is, a number of party-oriented Bluetooth speakers have light capabilities already, so it makes sense to go the other way as well in the name of convergence. This might make for a handy audiobook reader or talk-radio speaker if its frequency range is oriented towards the midrange.
  20. Happy Birthday!
  21. David Lynch's friend, Chrysta Bell, seems to be channeling David Bowie, Goldfrapp, and Annie Lennox... her new album, Midnight Star, released January 21 (also on cassette and vinyl – why not CD?):
  22. My first pair of Koss headphones were probably their least expensive earbuds, to replace my broken Panasonic cassette walkman's stock pair (which were decent). A succession of similar Koss headphones followed. My last pair (still working fine!) is the Koss SportaPro, purchased in the early 2000s. Great headphones, great company (I think they had some kind of internal scandal some years ago). RIP, John Koss.
  23. Happy Birthday!
