  1. Are you kidding? Setting up a Harmony remote is probably one of the the easiest things I could imagine doing at work. You should try setting up something like a Pronto or URC remote, now that shit is tedious.
  2. I don't see any red beverages so I'm not sure...
  3. Who needs a good amp when you have expensive toobs?
  4. I think he's taken a liking to it.
  5. Sierra Nevada while the Woody Creek White chills.
  6. I just tested some of this on mine (v7.5.2, not even the most recent) and didn't have any trouble doing something at least very similar to what you're wanting. I typed your example "my" into the search box, and it comes up with a list of artists with "my" in their name, then a list of albums with "my" in the title, and finally a list of songs with "my" in the title. I can add any of them to the current playlist by clicking the plus next to them (or use the play icon to have it replace the playlist), or if I want to see more info on the artist or album I can click on it and then go back after looking / adding specific tracks, or just open it in a new tab. It only took a few seconds to do the search and display the results, and that's with it running on hardware roughly on par with your average netbook (I run it on my fileserver). The only slowness I get in the web interface is the initial loading, and it takes several seconds to display all the album artwork on the playlist (it seems like it's not caching it at all, instead pulling the embedded art from the individual files every single time). As for reordering the queue, I don't see a way to move several files at once, but unless you have some long, complex playlist you're trying to create, it takes practically no time to just drag and drop the tracks to different spots in the playlist (there's zero delay from the server, they move as fast as you can move). Unfortunately, unless there's some logging or a plugin for it, I'm not aware of any way to view previously played tracks that aren't still on the playlist (random mix will only keep the 10 most recently played tracks on the playlist). I've never really encountered an issue of needing to do that myself, but it sounds like a dealbreaker for you. To offer a counter-counter for the usefulness of the SB, I've found it absolutely great for organizing and sorting through my music collection (11,000+ tracks, with a lot of CDs still not ripped). I can browse my main collection the usual ways (artist, album, genre), or for classical music I can browse by composer, conductor, or symphony/performer, and then for soundtracks I can browse the same way as my main collection, or just pull up a list of the main series/game titles without having to know the artist(s) or sort through the whole list of everything (I added a custom tag to my FLAC files to include that info). So if I wanted to find all the music from any versions of "Ghost in the Shell", I can just go Custom Browse => Anime => Ghost in the Shell, and then have a list of all the soundtracks from both the movies or TV series. I pick the one I want, and then since I can sync multiple Squeezeboxes together, I can go from my PC down to my DIY cave and continue listening without interruption. Also, in my case, since it's not tied to any desktop PCs, if I need to reboot for an update or something, or I just don't have the computer turned on, it has no effect on the music.
  7. Yeah, I went into chat just to demand that he fax me some.
  8. Darn, I think you should have it sent back for inspection.
  9. Maybe you should test it again to be sure?
  10. And that's how it's done.
  11. Tripel Karmeliet
  12. The real question is why you're looking up those videos on youtube in the first place.
  13. Good call Heh, eventually we'll get you more into ales.
  14. Agreed, I don't even want to think of the political shitstorm that would occur if he were captured alive.
  15. Westmalle Tripel, the nicest thing I have here, also to celebrate the death of a horrible man. If the store where it's being held wasn't already closed, I seriously would've been tempted to go pick up a bottle of TNP or StB! to pop open tonight.
  16. Hell is too nice of a place for him.
  17. It's about fucking time.
  18. What's this "too early" you speak of?
  19. Okay :/
  20. That's what he said.
  21. Gabe Newell?
  22. Is this good practice in general for pneumatic tools? I use the air wrench in my dad's auto shop a lot, wondering if I should be doing that for it too.
  23. I was wondering how long it would take you to comment on that.
  24. I don't know anyone who drains their compressors daily, at least around here. The reason for it is to drain any moisture that has accumulated inside the tank, the air pressure itself isn't the problem. Even with the humidity here in Georgia, it still takes a few days for any to build up, unless you're using it constantly all day. I can't help you with lubing your tool though, Steve's your man for that. I don't have any sort of nailgun so I'm not familiar with maintenance on them.
  25. Male escorts.
