And in other news, some smart folks have thought outside the box, and combined DoP, FLAC, and existing software to give you http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98978-SB-Touch-amp-DSD-with-a-DoP-DAC! via http://www.computeraudiophile.com/f11-software/playing-dsd-any-players-including-squeezebox-touch-16346/ Exec summary DoP = DSD over PCM - play the DSD bits, (not converted as), but packaged as PCM - so you can use S/PDIF or toslink as the transport mechanism. FLAC is a container with well a defined tagging ecosystem. So tag + playback using software of choice - output as PCM - PCM input interpreted as DSD ... looks fun stuff I've played with the DSD->PCM conversion in foobar2K so I can play some DSD test tracks back on a PCM dac - not that you'd want to , more as a proof of concept . Lacking a DoP capable DAC , I can't test this out at the moment - but I like the idea. So Benefits are existing PCM playback software / hardware (e.g. SB Touch) but will drive a DoP capable DAC .... Would only work with bit perfect playback - so no replaygain , software volume / EQ - as the PCM data isn't really PCM Audio so can't be manipulated as such. Gapless might work ... Interesting stuff

Happy Belated Birthday David.

Why stop at 2/4/6/8?

He could tell you, but then: He'd have to Kill you? The Black Helicopters would come for you?

And Bacon (but that goes without saying)

^Which ones?

Happy Father's day to those that are, and those that still have them. Happy just another day to the rest of us.

Which probably means Mexican/Real Sugar-nonHFCS Coke Candied Bacon is a possibility. Hmmm.

Its an Anti-Ginger defense mechanism, obviously

Isn't that what (Desktop) hackintoshes are for?

Brits can do that too (punk cover of a childrens classic - a la banana splits) . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nellie_the_Elephant Original (it sounds so proper - what do you expect from George Martin as Producer) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlLIa8_pLpk Toy Dolls , Punk Stylee http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPexTKhLQQQ There's a Top Of the Pops appearance with poor sound, if you look for it, and to close the circle as a Olga (Toy Dolls bass Player) as a guest with The Dickies ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCGYiD-nDu0
