  1. this poll sucks because there's no "loses the case and loses the election" option
  2. this is only true, of course, if Trump loses in November. if Trump wins, it will be a windfall for his career
  3. I was on another message board where a prominent poster there suddenly vanished after he'd been picked up for torturing puppies for sexual gratification. The charges were so awful, the judge excused everyone but the people who needed to know about them when they were read. Now, every time I see news like this, I wonder if they're squealing in each other to lessen the charges, if it was all part of one Interpol investigation, etc. High octane nightmare fuel that people like this exist.
  4. Yes. We're a few cylinders short of a V-8, is all. Not playing with full decks. A hamster short of an embarrassing rectal surgery. Not quite meeting recommended specifications. A few teeth short on our gears. The books of our lives lack punctuation and have spelling errors. Our memory banks are insolvent. We are the third Godfather movie, mentally speaking. Our IQ tests came back negative.
  5. For audio quality, yes. But for reliability? Not in our experience.
  6. Don't forget: His puppet in the House grew a spine and approved the Ukraine aid bill, against Trump's master's wishes.
  7. KPW's probably a regular r/CFB reader on Reddit, where NIL is a sign of the end times, has made CFB less fun, and will lead to the death of all sport. buncha pansies there
  8. I still have a fantastic Sony. If only I had a tape collection to listen to. Fucker's pristine and top notch, if a little dusty right now.
  9. Dude, half the people in this thread have already hallucinated a plea deal where Trump stays his term at home in Florida, even though the only source for this is their own whisky-addled brains. Just to keep in mind what you're arguing with.
  10. So, not much difference from the stuff in the 80's, then... 😉
  11. Yes, they're digital only. Everything from the DAC to the amps is inside the box. And you CAN spend an arm and a leg on Meridian-branded equipment, which... if you know anything about digital... is a complete waste of money. Your connections are: S/PDIF coax (RCA) and 5-pin DIN for control. And your standard power cable that roughly every piece of high-wattage electronics has shipped with since 1991. So we have a $99 Blu-Ray player and a Chromecast going into a Monoprice switch for the source, and a cheap no-name 5-pin DIN cable for the control. Same. My parents had some of the first Lexus cars made with those premium Nakamichi soundsystems. They sounded amazing, and broke after two years. Dad actually replaced one... and that one broke after 2 years, too. In other news, I replaced my computer audio interface. I'd been using a Presonus Audiobox 96 with an ancient Roland MX-5 mixer as volume/preamp. Replaced BOTH with the brand new Focusrite 4i4 (4th gen) and whoa Nelly I did NOT expect the preamps - both for the speakers and for the headphones - to be such a noticable upgrade over what the Presonus and Roland had. (The Roland's were just fine when it was new, but the fucker is 35 years old.)
