The sound fidelity of vinyl is measurably inferior to CD-quality digital audio, as the technology introduces various kinds of distortion. Some of these are perceived as “warmth”, and/or bound in with the ritual of playing the record, so some people see it as a plus.

I’ve bought a few records in recent years, though have never actually played them. I bought them for the artwork, and listen to the FLAC files that came with the Bandcamp download code.

This and the GIMP is why they shouldn’t let software developers name things.

He looks like a fighter

So, an antisemite?

He prefers to call himself a “modeliser”

Was this an initiative of Trump’s new design department, or something preceding that that wasn’t scrapped?

As a place to stay when travelling, I’m all for capsule hotels. You don’t get woken by backpackers coming and going as in a dorm, and if you’re out and about enjoying the city you paid to visit, you’re not going to be spending any more time in your accommodation than required to sleep, so why pay for a full suite?

From transistors to trans sisters

Is that a reference to interest in electronics being a gateway drug to gender transition?

Not even about boys’ schools in general, but about the English schooling system, and the way it conditioned a culture of violence and domination.

Or between human nature and the conditioned behaviour of English public schoolboys

Did the building owners and/or some community group commission a sculptor to create it, possibly paid for by public subscription, or did it just appear one day, and end up not being removed, like what would later be called “street art”?

If they didn’t call themselves things like the Walrus Lodge, they missed an opportunity

If the police confiscated loud cars/motorbikes, the offenders would have to make do wearing sandwich boards reading “MY DICK IS BIGGER THAN YOURS!!!”

Given that he was a theoretical physicist, the path from his research to anything affecting business revenue would have been long and convoluted, so unless they’re killing large numbers of physicists just in case, it’s unlikely.
