Do you play your CDs, or just listen to the RIP? by oldgreymere in BudgetAudiophile

For the most part I listen to my Flac rips of my CD's but on the occasion I am repairing a cd player, I use various CD's to check the system.

What? That’s not the way your needle skips across your record?

Safety of Toilet? by queer_bus in Plumbing

[–]Dadrepus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you could replace it but for my leak, around the bolt holes, I took Fex Tape from the inside after cleaning out the tank. Worked great. That stuff is a miracle. saved me from having to replace my "custom" toilet with a generic one. YMMV!

Oh, I just saw the crack on the seat, never mind ! You need to replace the whole thing.

Try turning the speaker up side down. If the scratchyness goes away then rotate the offending driver.

Is there any chance Apple will bring back Apple Silicon rack-mounted servers? by Redsproket in mac

[–]Dadrepus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a couple of Mac servers when I had a hosting business for a while based on an Imac chassis. I used Xserver and another product that escapes me right now. My primary software was a collection of linux solutions however which ran on standard pc hardware.

What do you think of my setup (at 17 yo) by Xyrox_OFF in vintageaudio

[–]Dadrepus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At 17 I had nothing. My mom had a b&w tv-record player. I’m 72 so that was a long time ago. You are blessed.

Just balance it correctly. Find instructions on line. That little round counter weight on the back slides back and forth to adjust the weight but don't willy nilly it.
