There’s this suit of useful little programs called Microsoft PowerToys, I always thought it should include a tool that allows you to quickly swap the contents of monitors around in multi-monitor setups.

e.g. move all open windows from monitor 1 to monitor 2 and vice-versa, while retaining their (approximate) position.

This may already be a thing, I haven’t really checked.

I’m trying my best but I don’t think so. I can be very insensitive without me knowing it.

No, but I’ve been on rotten.com (don’t bother clicking the link; the site is long gone) back in the day… similar experience

Princess Mononoke.

I was maybe 10 years old when I first watched it on a pirated DVD copy.

Haiku is already pretty great to use in my opinion, despite still being in beta; with the right hardware you could easily daily drive it

Poor thing

Coldplay switched to making lifeless, generic pop music…

The text is going to be covered by your hands 99% of the time anyway and besides, *****s have a distinct enough design that the text is gonna be the least of your worries.

Try using IPA on a spot you normally can’t see in case it damages the material, it might help rub off the text. If that doesn’t work just get a different case. Decent ones aren’t that expensive (versus the device’s price).

Edit: Why does it say “Taiwan”?

Paul McCartney died in a car crash in 1966 and was replaced by a Canadian man the British government had kidnapped for that purpose. After extensive facial surgery he took on McCartney’s role and no one noticed it.

Apart from John Lennon who hid cryptic clues to Faul’s real identity and the real Paul’s fate in the lyrics of famous Beatles songs.

It’s true.

Peter Gabriel era Genesis was pretty goofy, as well as some of his solo stuff.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is pretty much the goofiest band known to man right now; especially if you listen to their earlier stuff like Cellophane or Vegemite.

I’ve never paid that much for a used CD on eBay and I don’t think I only listen to popular or well-known artists…

Try the Discogs Marketplace if you haven’t had any luck on eBay, sellers there tend to know a bit more about how much their stuff is worth. It’s pretty nice if you’re looking for a particular pressing, too.

Used audio CDs are so cheap (most are anyways) that I don’t see any point in making your own, other than making a physical play list.

Thinking about it, I have two optical drives in my PC and never even used them to burn a CD…

1210mk5

The 1210MK5G ran from 2002 to 2010 I think. Yeah, it’s even a little bit better than mine actually, not by much, though.

It’s got the quartz lock, which is really nice. I’d love to have a 1210MK2 but, as you can probably imagine, their status among DJs has made them pretty much unaffordable for more casual listeners like me.

I mean, Rega turntables are pretty highly regarded but I doubt they’re better than my Technics (direct drive vs. belt drive pretty much). Rega doesn’t list specifications like wow & flutter or rumble on their page as far as I know which makes them kinda hard to compare, though.

Edit: Just had a look at a Pro-Ject deck (the classic evo, which is $1,999) and both the wow & flutter (0.11%) and the rumble (-70db) are worse than my Technics (0.03% and -73db).

They’re still really good specs but on paper they’re worse than those of the SL-1900.

Oh? Like which one?

Technics SL-1900 turntable from 1977, it was a pretty midrange model for its time but it sure as hell is better than any deck you can get new today. The only thing that doesn’t work is the dampening on the tonearm lift/lowering.

From Pacifica? That trash from the sea no good, make you sick

That reminds me, why do so many people confuse “they’re”, “their” and “there”?

It’s not really a single song for me, it really depends on how depressed I am and whether I want to dive deeper into it (which really helps a lot sometimes) or make myself feel better.

Dive-in (including, but not limited to):

• The album Spiderland by Slint is pretty much full of depression songs for me, gloomy and full of dread. Don, Aman and Washer in particular are very hard hitting for me.

• F#A#∞ by Godspeed You! Black Emperor has similar vibes but is a lot more dystopian and pessimistic. Ever since hearing East Hastings in 28 Days Later it’s been my favourite song on the album.

Feel better (including, but not limited to):

• Everybody Hurts by R.E.M.; I normally don’t like this kind of songs but this one just feels honest and sincere which I can appreciate, plus Michael Stipe just has a great voice.
• Down Under by Men At Work; Pretty much the polar opposite of the post-punk/-rock songs mentioned above. I really want to move to Australia one day and this song reminds me of that goal.
• Happiness/The Gondola Man by Elliott Smith; just a nice song and I really like Elliott’s voice.
