    20 K's: 4/29/1986

    Before the PED's, before the pinstripes, before he threw the bat handle at Piazza, before he became the TCM, before the first affair with a teenager, there was a magic night at Fenway Park that first turned my attention to the local ball club. I remember the front page Boston Globe store the...

    Some Amazon links inside posts are getting busted

    See the link in http://sonsofsamhorn.net/index.php?threads/i-am-an-addict.16340/page-7#post-2027356 It just opens the top level Amazon.com page for me in iOS Safari. I think this has been happening for months, but it would be nice if the links weren't massaged at all if they can't be done...

The audio in this room goes through retro RCA cables to a stereo receiver which has no digital audio input. This is workable for my DirecT...

    Adding USB 3.0 ports to a cheap 2008-era PC

    Several years ago I bought one of these PCs.   I would like to yank the obsolete modem card and insert a PCI card to give it some USB 3.0 ports.  When I cracked the case for the first time a few days ago, the first obvious problem came up.

    iPod Classic has been discontinued

    Apple has (without fanfare) discontinued the iPod Classic. This is a problem for me, since I own more music than will fit on a 64GB iPod Touch, and I like to have my whole library with me in my car.    Amazon has stock only from third party sellers. Target.com and WalMart.com no longer have any...
