  1. I still enjoy coffee, but no longer have any after noon. Then I also switch to tea (I've got around 14 types to choose from! ๐Ÿ˜†). One side-note, for any of you who have started including fasting into your life (which I had to a few years ago due to some health issues), The Earl Grey shown above is the one you want to be drinking while fasting. It includes bergamot which helps a lot during a fast. Oh,(another side-note!), if you get any "jolt" from drinking coffee, it actually means that you haven't been sleeping correctly! Once that's corrected (I even have a course I can put online if anyone's interested), you can actually drink coffee and go right to sleep if you needed to (not recommended though since it can cause acid-reflux). . . That said, I may have to check the rules to see if it's ok to be in the Coffee House wearing a tea-shirt... ๐Ÿค” ๐Ÿ˜œ
  2. They are MUCH better today than they were just a few years ago! I still don't have a real video card for my newest i9 screamer (wonderfully put together by Jim Roseberry here! ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘), I'm just using the on-board graphics. When I was doing IT consulting for a few years right before the C0VID scam killed that employment and two side businesses, we couldn't even buy a lame video card for a client for less than around $2,000! I went to a Best Buy one afternoon and saw a line of people milling about outside . When I asked what was up I found out that they were going to be camping there all night so they could be first in line to buy a video card the next day when the store opened because some were finally arriving! WTF??! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ This was all due to crypto-miners. Although my on-board graphics can power my 40" 4k monitor for work stuff (albeit with visible glitching from time to time), I certainly can't do any high-end video processing or play games with it... Oh, and I have a wealthy friend who bought a high-end PC online two years ago so he could live-stream on YouTube. When it had an issue (because one of the included hard-drives was a repurposed security drive that had failed - yes, he got scammed!), I found out he had paid $3,400 for just the video card with the entire rest of his computer costing him $2,900. I recommended him to Jim here (ironically his name is also Jim), but he chose to just replace the parts that weren't up-to-spec instead.
  3. What's a "TV" again? I've forgotten... ๐Ÿค”
  4. Back when an entire song could be 2:13! On some now that's just the intro. ๐Ÿ™‚ Oh, and the way they're dancing looks dangerous! ๐Ÿ˜†
  5. I'll go with one of Wibble's favorite artists instead! ๐Ÿ˜ Morrissey - You're The One For Me, Fatty
  6. That last one (Lip Up Fatty) needs to be followed up with some Madness, but I haven't found a good fit yet... ๐Ÿ˜†
  7. Get Andy (aka Synkrotron) to chime back in here occasionally... CHECK. Get Adrian (aka Bio Dude ๐Ÿ˜‚) to post back here... CHECK. Alright! Who's next??! ๐Ÿ˜ Anyway, good to see you're still alive and kicking Adrian! ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘
  8. @Wibbles Got a few ... Sultans Of Ping FC - You Talk Too Much New Order - Confusion (Pump Panel Reconstruction Mix) Tricky - Pumpkin
  9. Liked the self-titled album! Couldn't find their first one "Live On Earth" since all the results were NASA related... lol! Did find and listen to the third album, Zwei, and it was good, but I liked their self-titled one a lot more!
  10. Listening to this now!
  11. What a ding dong!!! ๐Ÿ˜œ
  12. How about this one where Nickleback reuses their own song? Play this wearing headphones! It's a trip! How You Remind Me Of Someday This is an .mp3 on one of my domains. <Right-Click><Save-As> ?
  13. While David Gilmour is an easy choice, I've always been fascinated with this lead where he switches over to a slide on a laid down guitar! Pink Floyd - High Hopes (from Pulse)
  14. He obviously left his picks in the car with his tremolo! Great pinch harmonics! I wonder why he chose to play the song a half-step up though?
  15. This one? We used to play a lot of Boston songs and my friends were (supposedly) the only Boston tribute band in the U.S. (called Smokin'). Always loved their stuff!
  16. Ha! Here's a "Mix" that apparently YouBoob has made based on, well, probably all of your choices I've been listening to? ๐Ÿ˜†
  17. I hate the term "Best" since it's very subjective, but I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Guthrie Govan yet. Here's one sample that "someone" thinks is the best...
  18. Pretty decent video for 1974! His guitar looks like what I had a few years after that (mine was a1976 bought in 1979 I believe).
  19. I wonder how many hours of practice and bodywork this took!
