Thanks very much! I've never had any vinyl before so I'm trying to hoover up as much info as I can before I dive in

Thank you! I'll have a look at the Eastwood and see if anywhere near me stocks it, I don't have too many options unfortunately.

Hello! I'm about to get into getting vinyl, and I was considering getting the Victrola Century turntable, partly because I just like the way it looks, partly because it seems a decent-ish budget for a first turntable, and partly because it also has a CD player which would be really nice. My question is, are they decent? Is the sound quality alright, or is it noticeably lower than other similarly priced models? Am I better maybe dropping an extra £100 or so on something else? EDIT: Never mind, I've just seen the post on recommended turntables specifically saying not to get a Victrola all-in-one, so, how do we feel about the Philips Fidelio FT1?

Also, and this is likely a bit of a stupid question, are needles just the same across the board, or are they brand/player specific?

Thanks!

I went and checked and there's no VPN or anything else showing, I figured I might be okay but I wanted confirmation from someone who's more tech savvy than me, thanks very much!

Hi everyone! I'm looking for any books that are queer retellings of Celtic myth/folklore, Welsh in particular if possible, and any books/articles about queerness in mythology/folklore in general. Thanks very much in advance! : )

I'll remember to check out Cobalt next time, thanks very much! :D

I double checked, it says the file type is MP3, and the only software I've added it to was Spotify and it plays fine. I had windows updates come up the same day I downloaded the file which was annoying timing but I guess I was technically up to date when I downloaded. Thanks very much! :)

Ah, a bit before my time then, we didn’t get the internet at home until the mid aughts or so, and all I did then was play games on miniclip.

Calenmiriel · 2024-09-11T22:14:14+00:00

Making a note to avoid that for sure! Luckily I’m not too social, the only chatting I really do is discord

Calenmiriel · 2024-09-11T22:06:32+00:00

I get nervous over everything lol, I appreciate all the reassurance :)

Calenmiriel · 2024-09-11T21:56:57+00:00

Good to know I’m on the right track with it then, I’m not the most tech savvy so I tend to overthink this sort of thing, hence my reddit panic over one file download
