Getting a shot of a projector at the weekend as my daughter is having a movie birthday.
Looked out a Samsung surround sound & dvdplayer setup I had about 15 years ago from the garage.
Hooked it up and it still works. Sound is decent but nothing not the high quality of speaker systems today and the fan inside the box makes a hell of a noise. Probably everything was noisey back then.
Slapped in a DonnieDarko DVD. Man DVD quality looks super-shite on a 55" tv.
We are so spoiled these days with 4k streaming services.
Got boxes of DVDs that I think the kids are going to enjoy going through. Their little minds are blown that a movie is on a round mirrored disc.

- it's just a shame those 4K streaming services rarely spew up anything as good as DDMrT
- DVD is 480p. 4k is 2160p. You can fit more than 16 dvd screens on a 4k screen. Crazy.monospaced
- DD is free on most major platforms including Amazon and Peacock. Ready when you are, and in way better quality.monospaced

- B.C. also just banned the rebates previously offered for TESLA EV charger station installsprophetone
- TESLA apparently had a chance to quietly bow out and just not attend, instead everyone in BC is seeing the headlines they were forcibly removed from the showprophetone
- A pretty big deal imo considering BC is probably one of the biggest sales markets in Canada for them, doesn't give potential buyers the warm fuzzies about themprophetone

X
Value of Elon Musk’s X ‘rebounds to $44bn purchase price’
Dramatic reversal of fortune for platform since billionaire owner became key ally of Donald Trump- Doubtful. It's mostly bots now.grafician
- For any post in trending, 90% of replies are bots.grafician
- That's such bs. A shame the Guardian published that. No way it went from $8b to $44b while he becomes the most hated person in the world.formed
- I think the xAI is included in thisNBQ00
- not the only one though https://www.ft.com/c…neverscared
- doesn't make any sense to have it increase that much in value over nightNutter
- In his unofficial role as king, Musk has the power to destroy companies. Buying ads on X and signing up for SpaceX satellite service might be wise.nuggler
- Ads on X are crypto related or people boosting their crappy posts. More than a year since I've seen a real brand adgrafician
- Loads of gambling company ads.PhanLo

Elon Musk
‘It’s a crisis’ - Top Tesla investor calls for ‘divisive’ Elon Musk to step down as CEO as stocks keep plunging
- I'm surprised that didn't happen weeks agoNutter
- Given he owns the board (and they've been dumping stock for months), I doubt that will happen before it drops another 50%.formed
- I'll pray for it, though. A year ago that would have killed the company. Now I think it'd send the stock skyrocketing.formed
- Funny how all of this rollercoastering discussion has nothing to do with the company products, value is perception onlyprophetone
- PE ratio for Tesla is 161grafician
- ^PE ratio for Apple is 35grafician
- But @formed is right, if Elon will step down now, the stock will be back to new highs.grafician
- or it will fall deeper because people think now that he is not on top of the companny anymore ... the companny lacks its "genius" spark...neverscared
- Buy High > Sell Lowutopian
- Actually, Elon steppingout was my first thought when shit went down couple weeks ago. I don't think the dumbass would ever, thoughmaquito

Converting my desk to an adjustable standing desk tonight. Bought an adjustable frame on Amazon. I've been getting tired of hunching over my midi controller that slides out from under the desk top, and hunching forward to see things better on my screens. It's also gotten annoying that I record guitar sitting down all the time. Hoping it all comes together, and expecting to spend absurd amounts of time rewiring things, mounting power strips and my UPS to the cabinets, etc.
- Will be totally worth itcanoe
- Much more fun working on music while moving around the studiocanoe
- I'm hoping so! Related / unrelated: a couple years ago I bought the AIAIAI wireless studio headphones, and they're perfect for that ability to move around.mg33
- That's a nice setup - seated or standing. And well done on the clean deskstoplying

- @canoe, YEAHHH it's been 100% playing and disappearing into each sound and than editing, modifying, etc. AND 0 seconds of audio recorded.
Honeymoon phase?!ideaist - I've thought about this but sometime I get hooked on stuff that's more suited to proper electronic music, and I'm not doing that as much.mg33
- How would it be for purely ambient textures and such?mg33
- ^ The different sound engines combined with the flexibility over envelopes, LFOs and functions make it ideal for that.mort_
