[00:27] this is a ridiculous device in every sense of the word: http://www.elpj.com/ a laser turntable [00:30] dashcloud: A mere $15k, no less! [00:30] the previous gen is available here: http://www.audioturntable.com/purchase/index.html [00:34] does it still come with the vacuum cleaner you need to clean the record before playing it? ISTR a 'slight issue' with those, in that (unlike a stylus) a laser beam can't shovel dust out of the way as it plays... [00:34] mind you, that's going back a looong time. maybe modern laser turntables are cleverer, somehow. [00:34] is there an IA collection for mail-order catalogs? I have gotten frustrated by the lack of scans of old catalogs online… [00:39] Baljem: the audioturntable site gives you one- you rent it for a week, and if you like it, you pay the other half of the cost, and you keep everything [00:40] *glances at price list* *glances at the half-a-dozen LPs and singles next to the CD shelves* [00:40] I think I might stick with my little plastic Sony ;) [00:42] I've got an Ion USB turntable so I'll be using that to dump some LPs in the near future [00:45] dashcloud: not ridiculous, it's got some good points [00:45] laser turntable f.ex. reads the bottom of the groove, which a needle won't touch [00:46] so you get closer to the un-worn sound [00:46] it's ridiculously awesome and expensive [00:46] heh, I'll drink to that [00:47] er, appears it reads the shoulder [00:47] wonder if IA has one of them to go along with the Scribes [00:47] I've heard that the center is sometimes good too [05:04] I hope somebody archived those legal docs [05:04] because dropbox cut off the account for bandwidth overage [05:06] joepie91, if they're legal documents aren't they public record or whatever? [05:07] (i haven't been following the project so I don't know what the documents are) [05:10] also on their help page https://www.dropbox.com/help/45/en it says "Your links will be temporarily disabled" — implying they might come back online sometime [13:52] http://www.goto10.fr/ - pretty cute, they have a link that contains and archive of all their files, for a one click archive [13:52] been reading about france's minitel [14:20] is there actually a way to retrieve a page from the archive? [23:46] Well, it's been a year.. [23:59] * BlueMax gives GLaDOS a party hat and a cupcake. [23:59] HAPPY BIRTHDAY! [23:59] ..since Aaron killed himself.. [23:59] what should we archive in his honor? [23:59] ...
