Sidi Dominators and a pair of Diadora Jalapenos. I also have an old pair of Avocet Mod. 30 touring shoes (worn by Pete Penseyres on one or more of his RAAM wins) that I used to wear all the time before I switched to clipless. Also have a pair of '80s DIadora cleated road shoes, worn about twice in the last 5 years.

Happy Birthday Carl!

I'd started watching this last year (1st season), but only did about 4-5 episodes. [rant] I was going to rewatch it and finish the 1st season before starting the second, but those pricks at Comcast are charging $3 an episode for previous seasons now. I'm so glad the powers that be allowed Comcast to buy NBC/Universal. Service providers like them should never be allowed to own content creators, and apparently their "concessions" to not charge for such expired early this year, but I digress. [/rant] At any rate, I've been watching the 2nd season. Intense show, and so far I'm impressed. I think I read one reviewer stating that it was the new Breaking Bad. Not too far off!

Just finished watching this (finally) last week. Great series! As to my favorites: Lester Bunk (Motherfucker!) Omar (Do I look like someone who repeats himself?) Stringer Lots of good ones (and scummy ones). I think I may rewatch the whole thing while it is still available on HBO On Demand.

Can you go back to Mavericks? Clean install?

Me too. Had enough of road shoes in the '80s/'90s. Being able to walk without waddling = win.

Happy Birthday Vicki!!

Just wondering to myself if this would be a significant upgrade to my Dynalo (single-ended, built on a Headamp Dynamic V2 circuit board from when Justin also sold boards). Would a single sigma22 be an appropriate PSU for this? Does anyone still have boards for this? It would appear I would need a pair of amp pcbs? I think I still have enough Toshiba sand around to do one, but could also go with the currently available stuff from Mouser if need be (and the right boards) I do have a dynahi (also SE) built up, but have never finished the casing for it.

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday, Wayne! :prettyprincess:

Happy Birthday Jim!! Sounds like you had a good one!

Nice Ian! Congrats!

^ Agreed. And heh Mikey! Nice job! Me: actually did fix my panasonic plasma today. 2 ICs and 2 caps. Was suffering the 10 blinks of death syndrome, did some research online and decided it was worth a shot. There are a lot of screws in these things; 40 just to take the back off Working great now though.

Happy Birthday Deepak!

Should be OK, as long as the computer supports it. We haven't had any trouble with my son's 2009 MBP for what that is worth.

Happy Birthday!

Didn't read the whole thread on the Apple discussion board from that point (tl;dr) but it sounded like either a BGA ball process problem or the graphics chip itself (or both). Apple has had BGA manufacturing/design problems for years; my G5 Powermac had problems with the memory controller chip related to this issue. Good luck Shelly!

Good stuff Nate!

What tin ear said, and the above. A tutorial on how not. And why does it still say newbie above the OP instead of cunticulas bannes or whatever. Those more knowledgeable please correct my inept attempt.

Yep, very sad. I didn't think of it immediately, thinking that her moving out of ICU was a good sign. Tragic in that a simple visit for an outpatient procedure could result in this. RIP to one fucking funny lady!

Ouch Dan! Glad it wasn't worse!

Happy Birthday Jack!

So you build it up with the 2 P-ch and 2 N-ch around the 14-pin chip (which I assume is where the THAT340 would go)? Also, this appears to be a mono board? I'll look thru this thread as I assume there are schematics somewhere. About what is the physical size of the PCB? Thanks.

This. And everything else. Miss you!

What I want to do is do the SE->BAL conversion with the minimum sonic impact on the SE signal (and the BAL obviously, but I don't use balanced currently). What is this specifically designed thing BTW? I've probably seen it at some point, but I'm getting older...
