| 09:39 | < chintimin> | quiet channel |
| 09:39 | < chintimin> | people having a good evening? |
| 09:39 | | * jerith is having a steadily improving morning. |
| 10:04 | < chintimin> | Yeah? |
| 10:04 | < chintimin> | what's up? |
| 10:06 | <@jerith> | Started off with some personal issues, followed by about an hour of bystanders telling me that I actually was being pretty reasonable and it's mostly the other guy's fault. |
| 10:09 | < chintimin> | Well, do you feel any better? |

| 10:11 | <@jerith> | Mostly just not annoyed by it anymore. :-) |
| 10:12 | < chintimin> | Does sound to be improving |
| 10:12 | < chintimin> | I spend hours irritated after confrontations, usually |
| 10:20 | | * chintimin shakes his head |
| 10:20 | < chintimin> | I hate gun arguments. |
| 10:20 | | * jerith too. |
| 10:20 | < chintimin> | aggressive contenders for both sides usually come across sounding like a goddamn moron. |
| 10:20 | <@McMartin> | This is why you should stick to archery, clearly. |
| 10:21 | | * chintimin raises an eyebrow |
| 10:21 | < chintimin> | Not enough kids, not enough apples |
| 10:22 | <@jerith> | Usually, I have plenty of apples left when I run out of kids. |
| 10:22 | <@jerith> | Maybe you're aiming too high? |
| 10:23 | < chintimin> | You're supposed to hit the apples, not the kids |
| 10:23 | < chintimin> | That's what Bill Tell tells me, anyways |
| 10:23 | < chintimin> | he just writes stupid overtures, though |
| 10:23 | < chintimin> | ^ ^ |
| 10:23 | <@jerith> | Wasn't it Rossini who wrote the overture? |
| 10:24 | < chintimin> | And the man is usually called "William", yes. |
| 10:24 | < chintimin> | but really |
| 10:25 | < chintimin> | how much respect you expect me to afford a dude who goes around shooting apples off kids? |
| 10:25 | <@McMartin> | It was under duress, like the Green Goblin and Spiderman. |
| 10:25 | <@jerith> | As I understand it, he shot one apple off one kid. |
| 10:25 | < chintimin> | growing up, I considered it my right to have an apple on my head and NOT have it shot |
| 10:25 | <@McMartin> | And, like Spiderman, it was resolved by William Tell being that good. |
| 10:26 | < chintimin> | That's prolly why I haven't heard the Jerith Overture |
| 10:26 | <@jerith> | And yeah, it was a requirement of both of their continued existence or something. |
| 10:26 | < chintimin> | apples, man. |
| 10:26 | < chintimin> | not the kids. |
| 10:26 | < chintimin> | and now I have it stuck in my head |
| 10:26 | < chintimin> | great. |
| 10:26 | < chintimin> | and these headphones are lousy for classical or anything with a lot of instruments |
| 10:28 | | * chintimin is still going back and forth on what he's buying in that department |
| 10:28 | < chintimin> | anyone here got a lot of experience with headphones? |
| 10:30 | < chintimin> | ah well. :) |
| 10:31 | <@jerith> | Don't buy any without trying them out. |
| 10:31 | < chintimin> | ...you know, that's better advice than I've had. |
| 10:31 | < chintimin> | hm. |
| 10:32 | < chintimin> | I mean, I enjoy these ones I'm wearing now, but they're stupid bassy and muddy in the high end - which I expected, but if I'd been able to line them against some others I'm looking at, I might have gotten a pair of Grados |
| 10:33 | <@jerith> | I have annoyed two sets of shop assistants by insisting on that. |
| 10:33 | <@jerith> | And left about six or seven shops without even looking because they won't let me. |
| 10:33 | < chintimin> | I'm just trying to figure out where a shop is I CAN test - not driving doesn't help that. :P I like this town, but it's not huge |
| 10:34 | < chintimin> | what did you end up buying? |
| 10:34 | <@jerith> | A Philips pair of some kind. I don't recall the details. |
| 10:34 | <@jerith> | This was when I was a student with no budget to speak of. |
| 10:36 | | * chintimin nods |
| 10:36 | < chintimin> | I've been shopping around a lot, going mostly on other people's opinions and tech specs of gear |
| 10:37 | < chintimin> | I haven't been unhappy with a pair I've picked up yet, but |
| 10:37 | < chintimin> | -shrugs- |
| 10:37 | < chintimin> | oh christ. you know what I'd LOVE to be able to audition? |
| 10:37 | < chintimin> | Sound cards. |
| 10:37 | < chintimin> | why it's so hard to get one that doesn't distort or hiss is beyond me |
| 10:38 | < chintimin> | I don't need 7.1 or fancy, just clean sound |
| 11:04 | < chintimin> | duuude. :) |
| 11:04 | < chintimin> | Found a company in Italy making 24-bit USB DACs that use custom drivers, letting you actually do 24-bit instead of using the USB sound standard |
| 11:05 | < chintimin> | linux drivers, mac, windows - been looking for something that would do this forever. |
| 11:23 | < chintimin> | oh dear christ. rapidly sinking in audiophile waters again |
