    M300 Gauge Clone

    Yeah, that's what i refer to. In fact, did you give me these images via TH as they're exactly the same photos as I have, with the handwritten bit about Shirasuna mechs. If so, thanks again, they came in really useful to determine the specs in my own RFQ. ;)

    Handbags at noon

    ...and a wonderful percussive 'clang' as the rear steps out when breaking traction under accelleration as it skids magnificently into a lamp post. :D

    lol That 'reason' has PS's sardonic air of superiority and authority written all over it. What an ass-hat.

    Handbags at noon

    More handbag swinging at me over on TH today. I posted on chapai's dbx 5bx-ds thread in response to someone asking what these units do (and their post was deleted too). Posted a photo of my 3bx-ds and gave a photo credit as per the rules. 'photo credit: to me, taken of my 3bx-ds, on my...

    Nakamichi T100 (not the software)

    I shyed off nabbing the unit I referenced above. Being in such a dirty, dog-eared cosmetic condition put me right off it. Sort of when you see the state of the interior of the car of the chick you pulled that night and she offers to drive you back to hers 'for a night cap'. Been there, done...

    M300 Gauge Clone

    It's not quite accurate to say that the M300 will determine or verify the 'absolute geometry' of a tape-path as it's specifically only for component factors within the scope of that description, namely PB/REC head height, tilt and depth-penetration. But you're right to say it forms a good...

    USPS Rant

    Yah, it's pretty fkd over there: https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1624479/fedex-driver-brutally-assaulted-by-porch-pirate-tracking-cell-phone-packages/ Needs to change somehow. Needs a 'scum and social vermin mitigation' study perhaps.

    USPS Rant

    As a relatively new online trader I'm discovering the vagaries of sending (and losing) things via different postal services. Most of my Etsy sales to the US go via our national postal service here in NL 'PostNL' who's partner in the US is USPS. Fortunately, as some of you here will know, those...

    Washing machines :(

    I dunno Bob, over here in EU washing machines are almost exclusively front - loaders. I've been running a very basic LG model with a DD motor for over 10 years now without so much as a peep. i made sure to get a basic, no frills model as someone also alluded to earlier those gadgets and gizmos...

    I bet he could bash out a rhythm on that lot. They would probably sound like those steel-band drums. lol

    Interesting take on the music business

    If I think about how I used to discover new music it started with in order of influence: John Peel - circa 80's-90's. Legendary, highly influential Radio 1 DJ. Probably the single biggest influence on my musical tastes. My dad - circa 70's. Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, Hendrix, Santana, to name...

    Washing machines :(

    ..but a good post. I don't agree with your observation that repairability is ever manufactured-in, except of course in the case I cited at ASM etc. Repairability has simply just always been there for most products up until recently when the likes of Apple and EV as well as ICE car manufacturers...

    Washing machines :(

    Of significance and relevance to this thread is the 'right to repair' movement which proposes a freedom of individuals and third parties to be able to repair consumer products, particularly electronic devices. As an ex PD manager I'm following this with interest as one of the design aspects I...
