For a transport: I wonder what @Baldr and company are thinking for the display and such. I hate those displays that just shows the track number.

Other day I played Making Movies from my BD player and man did it sound terrible. It sounded better after I ripped it but still pretty bad.

Who you talking to ?

Wow. When he quotes someone and then writes a reply, who do you think he is talking to?

 

[D2Girls]

It's not showing him quoting anyone for me

 

[Otheronek]

Do those sources circulate?

check you pm's

Then you likely have the quoted person on ignore...

Like I care one little bit what you think or have to say. You are just an old man with nothing better to do than think you are better than everyone else.

That is mean. I am not taking this personally just because I am an old man myself (although one with much to do).

Now I realize that my judgement may seem over the line coming from me, one who pokes fun at generalized bad/stupid users in tube quizzes (and on and on). Reluctantly or not, I have much to learn from anyone, even if it is only a viewpoint. Therefore, I allow most, if not all to soldier on in this thread no matter how much I love or hate their comments unless overruled (rarely) by the moderators here. In an anonymous forum such as this, we only know each other by what we post.

The last thing I want to do in this post is signal bullschiit virtue. I am not going to talk about can't we all get along or some other crap. This is not just because all of us can't no matter what I say. The deal is that most of us can in spite of ourselves. This is a group of people with common interests, no matter how little they may agree. Now I may poke fun at some generalized group here, but I never will single out anyone and call them <<insert insult here>>.

A thread minus personal attacks is a happier thread. Old people like me who think they are happy prefer that. Maybe there are others hanging around here who feel the same.

Well said Mike...

I am an old man too....

I am just so tired on the insults this guy throws out. Yes, it got to me. Yes, I probably should not have called him an old man. His superior attitude got me and I responded in a way that was beneath me. I will apologize to you but not to him.....

 

[fianbarr]

I am not old (<40)* but a lesson I learned a long time ago, is that it is much better for my wellbeing to ignore people who rub me the wrong way, and instead focus on the people that have something positive to contribute (an opposing but well argued position is still a positive contribution). You only have limited energy to spend, and all energy spend on negativity, is energy wasted. As very very very rarely does something positive come out of fighting negativity.

* anyone who argues differently can get of my lawn!

How you can call to respect one group of people while offending another is beyond me.
Oh wait... I think I understand.

Personally I think the clue is in his name. Winders. Always winding people up.

I don't use the Ignore function, but I assumed that it just disabled email notifications for specified people. Does it also filter out their content?

It's a pity really because he knows a lot about audio and is the go to tube specialist.
But with a personality like a meat grinder that hardly matters.

I've been lurking here for a short while, but long enough to feel I understand the regulars (irregulars?) around here.

My take on the problem is winders is often too wound-up, and PCT is often too wined-up But that's part of the character around here.

Hey we're all here because we all enjoy the same thing. Let's just have some loose fun and enjoy it.
