The New Coffee Room

That reminds me many years ago there was a thread next door about googling your own name and did you show up in the results and if so what page etc (this was back when most people weren’t googlable). Our own Steve Miller just replied. ‘Nope. There’s some guy with a band who gets all the hits.’

@AndyD said in Chopin on a Bosendorfer: Yes very. Also interesting she has her Bosie upright angled away from the wall to properly allow the sound out. Also note that her lamp isn't at a funny angle.

@Doctor-Phibes said in China is what we dream of: I just want to be able to read Winnie the Pooh without being sent to jail. Don't tell anyone. You'll be fine. For a while.

lol. On the other hand, I completely get where he is at on the subject.

@Doctor-Phibes said in Good news for Mark and me: Bloody hell, Mark - Spyro Gyra's a name I haven't heard in decades. Long ago I had a 10" single of Morning Dance, at least I think it was. Smoooooooth. One of my all time favorites!

Yeah I thought of that too.

I heard that each year, more people die in New York from being bitten by a human than die worldwide bitten by sharks.

If that's for real--I like that lots and lots. I kind of think that's a show, they certainly "hype" the tubes. I had a Magnatone M15. I used it for R&R and I used it for my stereo. 30 tubes I think--but most likely less.

Each pick up on the guitar played through a different side of the amp. It created a wall of noise (as opposed to a wall of sound.) I was cool, though.

@jon-nyc said in Klaus/Aqua Bait: @Klaus said in Klaus/Aqua Bait: “Maths” is the more precise abbreviation because it reflects that the discipline is mathematics — a plural noun. Just as we don’t shorten “physics” to “physic” or “economics” to “economic,” dropping the final “s” in mathematics creates an artificial singular. “Maths” preserves the integrity of the original word and emphasizes the breadth of the field, which covers many distinct branches rather than a single subject. But we do shorten ‘economics’ to ‘econ’, not ‘econs’. Pwned: https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/post/346082

Dancing on graves may be as actionable as publishing sex tapes without consent. That habitual scofflaw should be removed from society, so the rest of us can feel safe.

@jon-nyc said in Hey, bring back Jolly too!!: 500 restautants, one menu. What? They all try to please the one Dear Leader? Sounds very Socialist.

That has been the universal great failing of tech docs for as long as I've been in the industry. Everything except what you need.
