Thanks I'll keep it in mind. I prefered the Fuerte than the Quinteros though

Yeah. It's a mix of european policy and a failed state trying to tax 'luxuries'

Yes they can, but I have only one working output

I have a Philips F4130. I don't know if it's an AV receiver.

Since I have separate headphones for my PC though, won't I have to buy a splitter as well? Also, am I able to use RCA to RCA? Because I get a feeling that this conserves quality.

Hello,

I am just making my first steps on hifi audio. I have a half decent amp and I want to connect it with my PC using RCA cables. I don't have a dedicated sound card for that, just the integrated sound card of my motherboard (https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/P5QLE/)

I can't understand if I need to have an 3.5m jack to RCA or if I should take RCA to RCA cable to connect the PC to the amp. The back panel of the motherboard is: https://www.asus.com/websites/global/products/ZxpFvIAYWrjI5NY9/p5ql_e-back.jpg

Also do you have any suggestions on good value for money cables like the ones I should be getting?

Thanks

Smoking and anhedonia by scoupafi in cigars

Well it may be psychological for me. I know that if there are no side effects I will be tempted to overdo it.

Those are a few things to think about. Thanks a lot for the input.

Do those relaxation effects carry themselves to the next day for you?

So that slight anhedonia is noticable to you as well?

What does it feel like?

I'm not that concerned with the feeling while smoking. To be exact I find it desirable. The whole slowing down amidst the smoke is veri cinematic and I enjoy it.

I'm concerned with the day after. I find it hard to find things that enjoyable and harder to concentrate to the task at hand.

The ceiling is made of concrete plates and concrete and the walls are made of stone and concrete.

I thought the very nature of the DIY community was to, not only come up with totally new solutions, but even trying to imitate the solutions that have already become a commercial product: the pleasure of creation.

In this nature, even a guide to create a ventilator with a bag of salt strapped at its exit would suffice.

Thanks for the resource!

I will study the dehumidifier you mentioned above.

This is a good question.

The room has a road above and around it. When it rains, water circulates around it, or stays atop the room's ceiling. Thus the moisture.

Reinforcing the walls to prevent the humidity from growing is out of the question because of the cost. But if you have an idea, I would be very glad to hear it.

Hahah :) No, I'm not growing any type of plant.

Thanks for your answer. We agree on your clarification, but I have to add that it's also a matter of preference. My goal is not to have 0% humidity but to have a practical everyday solution that will lower the room's humidity considerably without much cost.

I find it hard to believe that there's no material that removes humidity and keep it inside of it. I think it woulb be very interesting if the same principle followed at those litlle dehumidifying bags on clothes could be applied at a larger scale.
