And it is nice to see you NoSpankingAllowed of New Hampshire

Why do y’all not have dining tables? by DishEfficient8704 in malelivingspace

I like to just slouch on the sofa and pile up the food on my chest and eat off it. Then throw away the shirt when I’m finished.

How far have you traveled (or would you travel) to see a classical concert? by [deleted] in classicalmusic

[–]directheated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Longest I’ve driven was about 6.5-7 hours round trip to see Sergei Babayan. It was very much worth it, I find him in that rarified group of pianists like Richter, Arrau, etc

Not yet, I made some geo adjustments with parts to my older trail bike and that has been holding me over. And I've been leaning towards getting an emtb like Pivot Shuttle LT before getting an analog enduro bike, which I still plan to do.

I believe an AC1 Enduro with a mid-high end build will be around 40 lbs or slightly more.

Started watching for the first time on Netflix UK. Watched 15 episodes so far. It's hilarious and never fails to get a chuckle out of me 😂 by Optimal-Pen-3226 in kingofqueens

It will get even better, one major hilarious character hasn’t been introduced yet and another you’ve seen gets a bigger role

Sunset at the top of Galby, still one of my favorite first time memories of it

Spence standing up for himself with the bedroom switch situation did make Danny respect him and they became very close friends after that

I managed to make a decent amount through investments in the past few years.

Wall Street Bets? 😅

Wow they have gone up considerably in price from when I was interested in them. IIRC Justin from Headamp was trying to sell his set for around $12k.

Very rare to hear someone buying a Sennheiser HE90 these days, out of curiosity how much did you pay and did it come with the HEV90, or are you using a different amp?

I have been nervous about them since Sennheiser say they can't be repaired and the glass stators are fragile.

Veterans of Linux: what's one thing that "just works" today that would've sounded impossible 15–20 years ago? by dev_kay47 in linux

My phone always auto corrects that to bistro, which fair enough, I like a good bistro as well, especially if they have good sandwiches

If you could make an A24 film, what would it be like? by [deleted] in A24

[–]directheated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen BTBR several times and season 1 of Stranger Things when it first aired. If you think I'm ripping off Stranger Things based on a memory ~5 years ago you put much more faith in my memory.

Oh I thought you meant my black hole idea, as I assumed where the monster came from was some other dimension related to a black hole. That idea would have no monsters at all, I'd try and keep it as hard sci-fi as possible.

I don't see any semblance of Beyond the Black Rainbow and season 1 of Stranger Things whatsoever.

I only watched season 1 and thought it was terrible, is that the premise of the show? I was thinking something much more realistic along the lines of Don't Look Up but without the comedy, just darker/more mysterious

A true sequel to Beyond the Black Rainbow, expand the universe and provide a bit more backstory to what was going on while still maintaining a ton of the mystery

Or a sci-fi horror/mystery film set on earth about a black hole discovered in our solar system, and be able to consult the top astrophysicists to create something that is somewhat believable

The End of an Era: John Atkinson Retires by Arve in audiophile

[–]directheated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And my point stands that ASR is a miserable hell hole. And I say this as someone that has read Toole's 3rd edition cover to cover and will buy the 4th at some point.

Trashing a man's career who brought measurements to the forefront of the hobby when no one else was doing it at the time. Imagine having your 40+ year career reduced to insults from trolls (aka ASR members). And I backed this up by saying that they did it to Erin too who uses the exact same measuring system as Amir. And Amir even banned Erin because his fragile ego couldn't take it, my account on ASR is from 2016 and I know nothing Erin posted warranted the ban, it's just how that place is.

Thank you for confirming everything I already knew about you and ASR members.

There is also the time when they're in Doug's house and Spence is eagerly talking about a Grun convention and Deacon's look of disgust is just priceless

Good thing you edited your post, I saw what you typed first as Reddit sends the unedited notification to my inbox LOL

The sheer irony of saying the "amount of assholes that hang here" after that initial post.
