I can't find it. I already ordered one so reading the review will be self affirmation, but still...

It’s in the print edition, so it should show up sometime in the next month online.

Print edition? Is that similar to those things historically referred to as newspapers?

I rather doubt it. They weren't even thinking about it at the end of October.

It was only the AKM factory fire that kept the Mimby alive.

I contacted Schiit and George replied to me. He said they are waiting on parts in a volatile market.

Love both albums. Beck's the man!

If you can deign to listen to digital, pretty good concert on YouTube (I suspect you've already seen this):

Awesome. Thanks for that. Dude, I have a Yggdrasil so digital is no hardship at all.

Mike M has called the balanced outputs on the Bifrost 2 “cheap ass balanced.” The internal design is single ended not hardware balanced like the Gungnir multibit and Yggdrasil....{{{snip}}}....

I wonder if he ever regretted muttering that comment on this thread? Moreover, it was one of the main reasons I snapped up an original Bifrost Multibit. Balanced input/outputs? I just don't need them. Why should I pay for extra circuitry that I won't use?

I'm sure you realize that Bifrost 2 is much more than just a Bifrost Multibit with balanced outs.

Haven't you heard, everything is going NFT now...!

NFT = nutty financial tricks.

Tom Brady has an NFT coming.

Honestly some of it sounds like NFTs are the digital equivalent to baseball cards/souvenirs/collectibles/art.

I read an artist from NYC had sold 40k of NFTs in 6 weeks..cool for him, but i dont understand the craze.

I also read a crazy article that NFTs generate tons of CO/CO2 emission and are terrible for the environment.... I didnt understand that article either.... seemed very alternate facty.

If it's like cryptocurrency, the issue is the computing power required to generate the crytographic information. It is estimated that a non-trivial percentage of the world's power consumption is involved with cryptocurrency mining - on the order of 100 TeraWatt-hours per year. (at a dime a kilowatt-hour, that's over 11 billiion dollars worth of electricity.)

I do not think Mike has many regrets particularly regarding what he says. He calls it like he sees it.

Jason on the other hand may have a few regrets over what Mike says =). Mike and “marketing” do not go well together.

I duuno. It's worked out pretty well so far.

I get it in regards to bitcoin, ethereum, etc but a NFT doesnt require mining to create, does it? I thought NFTs were created and sold/bought.
