Me as well. It's not particularly user friendly, though, but it will do exactly what you want. (Some wag decided that "abcde" stood for "A better CD encoder.")

Acronym or backronym?
Or just not quite as easy as ABC?

Question: what sources does the thread recommend if I want to learn more about MQA (so I don't suffer foot-in-mouth-disease [uninformed mutterings]). I'm looking for articles that a high school science teacher could understand...

Archimago's Musings. Start here but there's a lot more on that blog.

I'm pretty sure every word or every combination of words ever said, read, writ or wrote, has offended someone, somewhere, sometime. Snowflakes.

Snowflakes? Where, where? Have some new skis I need to test!

Anyone know of anything similar to the series 4 apple watch.

There are a bunch of different watches with heart rate monitors. Since they are not FDA-approved devices, I'd not trust them for health-critical purposes, but they can be useful for exercise. I have a Garmin Fenix 5s, more for GPS and altitude when climbing and ski touring than heart rate, but it's interesting to look at those heart rate peaks after struggling up steep slopes at altitude.

Yeah my fit bit tracks HR, pretty accurately, I was more interested in the ECG feature of the series 4, and the smart features apple has baked in to give you warnings If something is out of the ordinary. I've read numerous articles of the earlier apple watches alerting people to go to the Dr/hospital because something is out of whack. And those didn't even have an ECG in them.

I have the same Garmin watch but somehow, the light that flashes on to my wrist burns my skin after sometime.

So a Tesla S would use about 26 bhp to combat drag at that speed, that seems reasonable .

And the answer is ... ?

happy you are safe

Nice! Drag coefficients are not my strong suit (do I have a strong suit?).

For me... Meze Classics have the best isolation and least "leakage" (not sure if that's a term) w/in the closed-backs I have. Bose QCs do a great job, but that's active cancellation vs. isolation. (Oh, that was rhetorical)...

Thanks!

I'd guess backronym.

As for easy as "abcde" see The Police, Murder By Numbers

Congrats. A bitter-sweet testament to your generous contributions and not having a life.

Headphoneus Supremus

Cheers.
When I first came to Head-Fi and saw "Headphoneus Supremus" against someone's name I thought they must be super experienced and the fount of all wisdom,
and yet,
some didn't seem to know squat and some had some very suss ideas;
about then I realised it was only the number of posts.
whatever their quality or subject
(I found many had racked up their numbers in quizzes and such-like)
and not any kind of badge of merit,
but when I'd passed 1,000 I wanted it

Now I are one, a Head Phoney Super Mouse.
know squat with suss ideas

Pro Tip:

When working on appliances, make sure you've unplugged the correct one...

Complacency got me bit tonight, luckily it's wasn't anything severe, but damn that wasn't the reminder I wanted to have shortly before going to bed though...

How about large quantities of off topic posts
