writers strike, good or bad?
No, they don't -- that's what we're going to be stuck with because of the writer's strike.

Man gets offended by http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMaiXSiYVck . Gee, maybe he shouldn't have done whatever he did. I hate people who "justify" their issues like this. What's the word for this, "externalization"?

So...good, since this would be the first step? You'd have nothing but reality TV on all channels at all times? Or do you just mean "Hollywood", and not "the movie-making industry"? 'cause I kind of like movies. Some of them, anyway.

New Feature: Embedded Media
That was worth clicking on. So what happens when I post it as a link? EDIT: okay, now with the noembed tags [noembed] [/noembed] Okay, cool, that works exactly as I'd like it to.

New Feature: Embedded Media
Too fucking hip. Thanks, Todd. And for those of you who are on low-bandwidth type situations, I highly recommend the flashblock add-in for Firefox.

Audio Technica headphone question -- closest to leatherhead?
Yup; dewing et. Already got the quote, just waiting for funds. They will also have the A900ti in December timeframe, although I'll probably get them from audiocubes, even though it'll be just a little bit more expensive. Maybe. Perhaps.

Less JPN/VTG, more A900Ti/A950LTD talk, please. The JPN/VTG are already a given, if/when I find the right price.

Audio Technica headphone question -- closest to leatherhead?
Bumping up an old topic. So yeah, after reading repeatedly how nice the JPN's and the VTG's are, I'm passively in the market for them (although it has to coincide with my having money, of course, which I currently don't), but was wondering if anyone has any additional thoughts on this, now that the a900ti and a950ltd are out...? Are they in the running, or are they more in W2002/W100 territory, or "other"? Currently, I use the CD3000 as sort of a poor-man's L3000, as, until I get them recabled (the L3000's, that is), I am really unhappy with the midrange suckout. I'm actually tempted to put in an EQ. The Sony's certainly don't have the same delivery of transients that the Audio Technica's do (can you say, "smoov"?), but since I'm not doing critical listening, they are perfectly adequate for passive work listening. I'm tempted to just get a pair of each and decide for myself. They are black (the A500 and the A950ltd are, anyway, even if the a900ti is not), after all, and closed, the former of which is not a criteria, but certainly a plus, and the latter of which is definitely a criteria.

Got me a free VD power cord
I have a hard time justifying upgrade power cords. I mean, c'mon, have you seen the shit that's in your walls? Chain is only as strong as its weakest link, etc. As long as it is not so bad as to make things worse, I have a hard time seeing how it could be better. And I certainly couldn't hear the difference, the one time I tried.

I think he did, as that is the image's name. I think it was just a typo in his post. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSP46lWvxJ4

Castanet - Oh snap. It's coming.
I still don't know who she is. I presume this is from some teevee show?

Predator question...
(adopts heavy Russian immigrant accent) But at least here in America, you can -- how do you say -- "call us on it"...you can tell us we're boring. And we hear it, and we wear insult like badge on sleeve. Over there in communist Russia, one risks being silenced or perhaps much worse consequences. So we wave flags a little more strongly, yes? Do you really blame us? Yes, it gets a bit redundant, only because we continue to give people like Billy and tyrion and trose the freedom to keep stirring shit up. Over there, people get "disappeared".

Billy, did you know that CostCo sells Breitling?

Burning CDs and fidelity
Dude And although I started out using disk images, I switched to invidual tracks in the long run, as it made it easier to convert to MP3's non-destructively (I.E. now my backup doubles as a source for my MP3 player). Using individual tracks, you don't need to fall back to MP3's, you can use FLAC or some other lossless compression format.

Recomend to me something by Stravinsky
I'll second the Firebird Suite recommendation.
