This is a great Bill Evans album, from 1961.
It sounds very nice on this Sony CD player, going into a modern Burr-Brown DAC.

The "Mar-a-Lago face" trend that people have noticed seems to still be quite popular.

Yes, we are the baddies now, in the eyes of most of the world.
So much respect, influence and soft power just burned to the ground in a few months by the evil and incompetent Trump regime.
China isn't wasting any time trying to fill the void.

One of my favorite albums. Blue Train from 1957.
This is a 24-Bit, 192 kHz stream going through the EverSolo T8, using IIS to the EverSolo DAC-Z10 then XLR going to the Advance Paris A12 Classic.

Switched the Ioniq 5N over to a new set of winter wheels and tires last night.
These are smaller diameter wheels with higher aspect ratio winter tires.
Each wheel and tire package is 8 lbs lighter than the stock set.

A batch of new Blue Note CDs. These are all UHQ-CDs, that were 30 percent off last week.
These are mostly upgrades from older versions that I already had.
I've got them all ripped to my NAS.

Listening to this on a Sunday night. I had never heard of this album before, it was the debut album for Cannonball and Nat Adderley.
Pretty racy photo for 1955.

You never will get the latest version BIOS with a new motherboard. It's a good idea to get the latest version as soon as you can POST.

The first POST worked, which is always a good sign. Now I need to flash the BIOS and install the OS.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.
