Belated happy birthday Todd! Welcome to the club 🎂

Happy Birthday!

^This! Farrell disappears in his performance under the body suit. But Milioti is an amaaazing actress, who secures Sofia Falcone's place as the most badass mafiosa of all time in episode 4 (Cent'Anni).

Slow Horses (AppleTV) - finished s1, started s2... Again, late to the party, but after finishing Ted Lasso, I figured my ear was already trained for a variety of British accents, so... I probably should just put everything that Pars, Grahame, Torpedo, & blessingx recommend onto my watch-lists.

Thanks jamesmking. Equally valid answers would have been: "No" "Yes" "Yes/No, just take my word for it" Yes/No, you'll understand when you're older" "Yes/No, it worked for me in a similar setup, but with alot of tweaking that you may or may not wish to get into" or similar variations specific to actual experience with the Technics/Denon combo.

Advice requested: I'd like to try an MC cartridge on my Technics SL1700 (it's very much like the SL1200). Namely a Denon 103R anniversary edition: 1. I don't really understand cartridge/tonearm matching, but I've read about an overhang issue with the Technics tonearm. Is that a thing (and can someone explain it to me like a 4y/o please)? 2. Can I run it with a SUT & my existing MM-only preamp? Or is it preferrable to get a dedicated MC preamp? Which is the better way to go? 3. Is it worth it?

Happy Birthday!

I know I'm late to the game on this one, but we could all use more humor these days:

Monsieur Spade - very well-done. Cinematically filmed, with a smartly-written script, yet subtly so (as in using language well, not in the "I'm smarter than you" way). Clive Owen delivers it perfectly. Six episodes.

Woot! has the Fujifilm GFX100 II (body only) for $3999 today: (NEW) Fujifilm GFX100S II Body Mirrorless Medium Format Camera Body (woot.com)

LOL! Well, 61 ain't so bad (until I just typed that out, that is 😉) Thanks for posting everyone!

Shrinking (AppleTV) - season 1 Season 2 coming in October '24

Severance (AppleTV) - halfway through finished season 1 Looking forward to season 2 in January '25

Bad Monkey (AppleTV) - first three eps are very enjoyable, if highly dependent upon Vaughn's witty charm: Natalie Martinez ain't too difficult to look at either though😉

The Bear - finished season 3. Wow, great..again. Except...cliffhanger!
