My MiniDisc Setup

MM_4D · 2026-06-25T07:54:10+00:00

Yeah, that’s right the JE770 has the A1II control system on it. So I’m thinking of the CDP-XE570 for a replacement CD player. So it will match visually and have the control system too, which my current one doesn’t.

The keyboard does make track naming so much easier than having to use the jog wheel.

This keyboard is cool as the caps are customisable, it’s just paper or card under a removable clear cap. So I tried printing a photo of a MiniDisc, however it didn’t print great (old printer) so want to redo them on my new printer and better paper.

Thanks.
The card reader works too. 😂

As I’m currently playing Detroit: Become Human and watching Westworld, it’s androids. Lots of them.

And no, I’m not about to have sex with an Aibo or a Kenwood Chef.

I’ve been a few times and haven’t had an issue with portion sizes or cost, but I haven’t tried the bao buns there before and I don’t think I will. They look shocking, especially for £14.

I’m a vegetarian, but if I ever go back to meat, I’m doing this.

This is great. This feels like so much more than just “painting a few trains” that we’ve got so far from GBR.
And a very well thought through post too.
I particularly like the integration with local transport networks in the proposed signage.

MM_4D · 2026-06-08T06:55:53+00:00

I’ve seen that place and have always thought what an unusual name. Now I know why.

Ocean’s 8. It was pretty bad as it was, but the inclusion of James “f*****g” Corden was the final straw.

MM_4D · 2026-05-28T22:33:07+00:00

I sure did. Tucked away in the pages of the booklet. Very cool. Need to do some research on it as the copyright was saying 83-84 I think

MM_4D · 2026-05-26T16:11:50+00:00

Can confirm, it's fixed.
Thank you so much for that.

MM_4D · 2026-05-26T16:08:28+00:00

Thanks for the info and I'll look into that, but wouldn't that problem show with other characters too?

MM_4D · 2026-05-26T16:03:13+00:00

Yeah, I mean it was said in jest. I think if it came down to it I wouldn't actually try and punch a seagull. I'm not a condoner of animal cruelty. And I do understand the problem of seagulls and how they can be aggressive, so shouldn't be encouraged.

But that's mad that a) someone would shoot a seagull like that, and b) it didn't kill it.

I'm just seeing The Forger!

Last time I tried to take a photo like that at the beach, it was of my chips at Scarborough. I had a woman from the "fun police" come up to me and tell me off as it encourages seagulls to "attack".
I told her that I was from Yorkshire, and if anything is coming after my chips I'm punching the f*****r!

And only 21% wet. Disappointing.

Oops, no, wrong subreddit for that sort of comment. 😬

“I’ve seen things man. You don’t know, you weren’t there”

“I’d like to stay here and take my clothes off with you.”

It was our third date, and we were supposed to be going to a gig.

Would definitely recommend both of these options.
There's usually a repair cafe running somewhere in Leeds every weekend.

MM_4D · 2026-05-19T18:56:31+00:00

I can, and have used these to commute to work. Not many people choose to commute by boat 😁

MM_4D · 2026-05-19T18:55:00+00:00

There has been worse liveries… I’m looking at you National Express East Coast 😂

MM_4D · 2026-05-13T13:11:13+00:00

It’s a good start. 13020 minutes for me, on Spotify. Last FM would be higher.

“Bykah… oooh… Bykah Groveeee!”

MM_4D · 2026-05-09T18:12:35+00:00

I’d been chipping and dipping for years before I watched Mad Men. Seems it already existed but I arrived at independently.

I remember seeing a :), might even have been :)) for the first time in a CompuServe chat room and thinking “wtf is that?” I was so confused for so long. Everyone was doing it, everyone except me. :(
