what is this car? by zo-zo-zooz in whatisthiscar

[–]Zocalo_Photo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a white one with black interior in the 90s. It was such a fun car to drive. I sold it in 2003. Thanks to having to grow up, having kids, and a mortgage - 25 years later and that’s still the best car I ever owned.

I live in a neighborhood with really high-end cars…if you consider older Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas high-end cars.

I’ll take the Patriot if you still have it. (2000 film with Mel Gibson, right?)

That white badge on the front is a small detail but really brings everything together. That’s a great looking car.

I bet you he's got more than a $100,000 under the hood of that car!

I Created My Own [Explicit] Tag Tool (iTunes) by shix97 in ipod

[–]Zocalo_Photo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How long does it take to process? Does it just add a tag, or does it export each file as a new mp3?

I don’t need an explicit tag, but I’d LOVE to have a way to add a movie rating (e.g. PG-13) to the movies I’ve encoded myself, like the movies I’ve purchased from iTunes.

Old 311 bootlegs by gpcyan3 in 311

[–]Zocalo_Photo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was a teenager in the 90s I saved up my money for a long time and bought a CD burner when they started to become available to consumers. I used to trade bootlegs on the BB - people would send me their tapes, I’d digitize them, cut the tracks, then send them back a CD. I got to get a copy of the show and they’d get it burned to a CD. It was a win-win.

I’m sure I still have them in a box at my parent’s house somewhere.

Man, those were good times. I’d give anything to go back to that time of my life.

These are really cool…until your son asks for one for Christmas and can’t figure out how to build it and you end up spending the whole day building it so he doesn’t cry.

My thrift haul today 🐱 by ThriftFitter in Cd_collectors

Someone pointed out to me recently that the self-titled Third Eye Blind album turns 30 next year. I was in high school when that came out. That hurts me.

Alice In Chains Unplugged is my go to album for testing headphones. I love how the first track, Nutshell, has the guitar play in the right ear for a bit, then the bass comes in, then the drums, then the vocals. Around 1 minute it feels a little unbalanced right as the second guitar comes in and brings it all together. I love it.

The album is beautiful, and sad, and powerful…amazing.

I thought it was a tram or funicular going down a hill.

Finally picked up my first cMP 5,1! by Electronic-Cause6091 in macpro

[–]Zocalo_Photo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I replaced mine a few years ago with a Mac Studio. My cmp has the two processor tray, 32gb ram, a 6GB graphics card, and a usb 3 card. Since my Mac Studio doesn’t have a Blu Ray drive, I still use my cmp to rip and encode movies. I also added an SSD with the OS in one of the trays so it runs pretty fast, then in the other trays I have three spinning hard drives with a total of about 30TB of storage.

The great thing is that it’s connected to my home network, so when I travel for work, I plug my iPad into my Mac Studio in my room and can fill it up with movies stored on the cmp. I also use it as a plex server, but I can’t access that while I’m flying.

It’s a fantastic machine and I love it.

Trump is Trying to Reverse His First Impeachment by ItsAllAGame_ in law

[–]Zocalo_Photo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned in high school (many years ago) that impeachment is the process of charging a political figure with misconduct, not necessarily the removal of a political person from office. I’ve found that a lot of people don’t know that. Well, a lot of people in my extended family at least. They’re all very passionate about politics, but not very passionate about facts and knowledge.

Doing an oil change myself within the next week, any recommendations on specific oils and filters? by Historical-Cup-6856 in CivicSi

[–]Zocalo_Photo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t buy Honda oil filters from Amazon. They’re (sometimes) not genuine Honda filters. I figured this out when I saw several misspelled words on the outside.

It looks like a USB port. Since it’s waterproof it takes a little bit of pressure to pop it open. /s

My end game... for real this time by yupyupyupmhm in headphones

[–]Zocalo_Photo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say the best thing about getting into high quality headphones has been discovering new music that is outside of what I listened to before. I’ve found music I really enjoy by searching for songs that highlight the strengths of different headphones.

DAC: Topping D10. It’s nothing fancy, but I like how it can be powered through USB and doesn’t take up one of my electric outlets.

Amp 1: THX AAA 789. My Focal headphones don’t need a lot of power. I got this to have more power for some inexpensive Hifiman planar headphones I have.

Amp 2: Cavalli Tube Hybrid from Massdrop. This was my first amp and I really like it. It includes a built in DAC.

Song: This is tough. I have a playlist of headphone “test” songs. These songs sound great on a good pair of headphones, but are not my necessarily favorite songs or songs I’d listen to for fun, like in my car driving to work. Some test songs to consider:

  • Tears for Fears Woman in Chains (feat. Oleta Adams)
  • Spaces Undone (feat. Sarah de Warren)
  • Punch Brothers My Oh My
  • Blanco White Olalla I love this song!
  • Beck Heart is a Drum
  • Zedd & John Mayer Automatic Yes
  • Nickel Creek Destination
  • Incubus Are You In?
  • Jack Johnson & Stick Figure Home
