History notwithstanding, this is our year.

Harmony One for XBMC has worked very well for me on PC and linux boxes. Less happy with an older model Harmony on a Mac Mini.

Law student working toward being an agent = law student working toward being a car crash lawyer. It isn't a career path, it is a meaningless dream bound to fail.

Can anyone tell me if I can migrate ALAC files to their cloud service? I buy CDs and rip to ALAC so I have tens of thousands of songs in this format. I would like something like this for backup and convenience among devices but if my library is incompatible it is a nonstarter.

I love this for cooking fish and I have to think there is a way to incorporate this into badass cocktail making.

In the shower in a ziploc bag, like the guy on The League?

I have always been confused about the low carb Atkins type diets and their effect on cholesterol since my decision to lose weight was motivated mostly by my doctor's warnings about cholesterol.

Phelps did break a world record at 15, although he didn't medal in the olympics.

I thought the civil war WAS the good he did?

I have a 4 month old Mac Mini that I use exclusively to play music on itunes and music and video on xbmc with the video outputting to a TV over HDMI and sound over USB or optical toslink through my Music Fidelity V-Dac. It is very occasionally used to stream netflix. I really don't use it for any other purpose. My…

Sound engineers also typically use fairly terrible monitor speakers in their studios. I'm not sure they are the last word in equipment.

It's funny to me that people don't blink an eye at spending $100k on a car, but a $10k audio system is typically derided as wasteful. I have a pair of the previous generation sennheiser open air headphones and they are truly remarkable sounding products. Music is just mesmerizingly beautiful through them. My Focals…

Headphones or earplugs and a sleep mask allow you to completely control your domain, I don't understand why 100% of passengers don't bring on in-ear or noise cancelling headphones and instead choose to fret and whine about the way everyone around them is behaving and complain about parents having the audacity to…

JAL offers the bassinet on the JFK-NRT flight. There are only a handful (either 2 or 4) on the flight so you need to call ahead and reserve it. I think they only work for under 1 year old.

It is lovely to look at but the work items are so twee and precious. Is this some sort of etsy craft business that rents space in little used corner of a glitter factory?

Tigra and Bunny beg to differ.

KEF is still using a dual concentric design with their UniQ drivers at least in their mid-to-lower range lines. Tannoy's are also dual concentric as you described, rather than a single driver speaker with a whizzer.

There is a cult following for single driver speakers, using for example, lowther or fostex drivers which employ that whizzer design. Omega is one manufacturer of these speakers, some others are made by small bespoke manufacturers. They can actually get fairly expensive and the popularity is in part because can drive…

Of course, for $45 you ended up with four Fast and Furious blu rays. Is it one of those deals where if you watch all four they give them to you free like with giant hamburgers?

My baby is like a month old and my wife is nursing. Everywhere I go everyone is concerned about my lack of sleep, while my poor wife sleeps in 15 minute increments. I'm getting a solid 7 every night. Sure I'll pretend to be helpful randomly at 3 am for 30 seconds, but there really is no point in two people being…
