I once used New Jersey Hot chopped Pepper Relish. New Jersey Pepper Relish is a condiment traditionally used on Submarine, Hoagie, and Torpedo sandwiches. It is unique in that is uses the Cherry pepper, both hot and mild as its main ingredient. The Cherry Pepper is not seen in the Western US...

The flavor of a chili pepper is dependent on were they are grown. As you know Hoy Fong's Sriracha sauce no longer gets their red Jalapeňo's from Underwood Ranches, They now. come from New Mexico, Texas, and Mexico. The God tongues are saying Rooster Sauce no longer taste, or looks the same...

I have talked about this before Books that would make great movies or TV mini series. Glynn Stewart is one of my favorite self published authors, on Kindle and Audible I have 59 of his books. He writes really good Sci Fi military opera's, magical fantasys, and great sci-fi flavored gothic books...

This test exactly matches my experience with the K7. I started using the K7 before I watched this YouTube and it was nice to see my purchase choice confirmed.

After the research I did before I purchased the FiiO K7 it tweaked my Youtube algorithms and I started getting channels devoted to DAC/AMPs. Z Reviews came up yesterday. This guy tests DAC/AMPs, earphones and headphones that he uses on the DAC/AMPs he is testing. His reviews are accurate, and...

One of its HDMI ports is not working. I am going to hit the HDMI jack with some Caig DeOxit and install a new cable and see it the fixes it, but.......... Looking for suggestion on its replacement. I don't care about surround sound anymore. I set this system up for surround Dolby music. The...

I just discovered that Apple Music has added the Holly Dunn discography. Except for "Daddy's Hands" you rarely hear her. Holly Dunn died at the age of 59 on November 14th 2016. I was overjoyed to see the album Cornerstone. It was released in 1987 and only on Vinyl. Even the record has never...

Moving through my music library on Apple Music and I ran across this song which rekindled an outrage I have forgotten about. Ue o Muite Arukō ( Japanese: 上を向いて歩こう, "I Look Up as I Walk") was considered to hard to pronounce so its name was changed to Sukiyaki with its release in the US in...

I reported of this wonderful soundtrack back in 2011. Now I am listening to it on Apple Music, lossless using the FiiO K7 DAC/Amp with the wonderful Shure SE-535's on the Mac Studio. It is like I have never heard it before. As I observed at the time the movie is actually pretty good, and the...

13 years ago here there was a question about this and it needs refreshing. I am again purchasing CD's many of them from Japan, the EU and the UK. These are CD's never released in the States or are completely out of print, not on any streaming service, and no CD available stateside. Japanese...

I have have had FiiO BT DAC/Amps for years even with Bluetooth they sound great. It was not until directly I plugged the BTR7 into the Mac Studio that I learned just how good these FiiO DAC/Amps are. I finally hooked up the K7, it took longer to unbox it that it did getting it going. I knew...

Just learned of this on Apple News. Roku has published new TOS that unless they are agreed to the Roku TV will be disabled. I have not used a Roku in about 10 years once I added an Apple TV there was no longer a reason to have it. Roku bragged about have many hundreds of channels but most of...

It is funny before I started to use the Apple AirPod Pro 2. I observed that I would not wear them outside of the house for fear of losing them. With the Comply expandable foam sleeves they stay put in my ears no matter what. Now it is the wired BT earphones that don't leave the house. The way...

I received the CD of Wendy Carlos's 1972 Sonic Seasonings, which included extra tracks, Aurora Borealis, and Midnight Sun. As has been discussed elsewhere Wendy will not allow any of her work she has control of to be streamed on any music service. When I ripped the CD to Apple Music I found...

I have high end Japanese kitchen knives from Seki Japan. It is important to maintain their edge, and to know if is time to send them to a professional sharpening service for a regrind. My iPhone 14 Pro Max with its 15X digital zoom, and with post processing can do the job. However I cannot...

I have learned that like everything else you get what you pay for. I have used various Japanese style whetstones for years. The ones I used were those that required soaking in water before use, they are sort of like bricks you use in masonry. On a dedicated kitchen knife forum I learned about...

No details of course, but Dune fan's who have seen seen Dune II say that at the end there are hints of something more to come. In many ways The Children of Dune is a more interesting book than Dune. In a movie Children of Dune Princess Alia Atreides, St Alia of The Knife could come forward...
