It's probably left over from listening to CD's in a car -- especially with Diskman-type players (as opposed to in-dash players).

Yeah, that's another one. I fucking hated anything associated with 'name' brands.

I don't know whether to be sad for you or confused. Do you dislike jeans? Not that there's anything wrong with that -- I'm actually allowed to wear jeans to work and don't. But I do on the weekend.

I hope this is what she's thinking: "Hey, George, when's the last time you saw an ass this nice? Have you ever seen an ass this nice? I kind of doubt it, you were probably too busy drunk or 'inhaling' when you were in college. Think about this: you will never ever have an ass this nice ever again in your entire rest of your life."

Wow, that's coming together quite nicely.

This is my experience as well, sort of. I would have to qualify it with "my crowd" considered it uncool...the "jocks" and "jockettes" wore Izods and shit, so we, of course, had to eschew same. But yeah, Levi's were pretty universally admired.

You should probably start a WTB thread in the trading post.

Yeah, sorry about ruining your contest, Elephas, I actually started to attempt to set something up, but then got busy, and forfeited.

ultimate silent linux "box" Of course, they cheated: they put the disk drives in the next room.

In all likelihood, he probably put his less favorite figures in there, in case (ahem) they melt.

Mmmm...Lara... My attitude on autographed CD's -- unless I'm buying it from the band, I don't see the point. And that's still not as worthwhile as getting the autograph myself.

I actually had a guy not know that he sold me a 1/8" connector on a Sennheiser cable with a 1/4" adapter. He thought it had a 1/4".

Did you not read the thread? There was a post that said it was probably from a $50 DAC.

I should get an iPod.

Inglorious Basterds (sic) -- I really hope this movie gets made, it'll make up for Deathproof. Insta-classic. I would even go so far as to suggest that he leaked it on purpose, because he knows how good it is.

Well... It's not like there isn't eleventy Brazilian options there... And if you have to ask whether or not there's any sonic impact, just splice on a new connector -- that way, you can stop worrying about it. Your worry will have more sonic impact.

Radio Shack, for one. Yes, don't buy it from Radio Shack. J/K...

I made the iPhone my bitch consenting adult.

I agree with your conclusion. It strikes me that there really is no argument that the functionality is there, though. They can spin it any way they want, reassure is that they will only use it for benign purposes, but...time will tell. And it will be told by people like him.

Not so sure about that...that was from the guy that wrote the book -- literally -- on iPhone development: link.

:fail:

Erica Sadun's Flashlight cracks me up.

Actually, it probably wasn't GoHastings who did the punching. Which I'm not sure is any better.

An old image, but I just discovered it.
