    Car Audio wiring question.

    What actually kills a speaker is clipping. Any time the sound a speaker tops or bottoms out making a |_| instead of a U with the signal, that flat spot does nothing but generates heat. As long as there is movement, there's no heat. Heat will eventually melt the voice coil (well, damage it)...

    Depends how far along the light novel is. That's what causes a manga or anime to be created. Light Novels fuel everything.

    Most mobo's have a quality sound card built in these days. But if you really need a separate card, sound blaster is the way to go.

    Very true, but they did say Goblin King. He's easily 10 levels above the other goblins (equal to a platinum adventurer). He might have some AE spell that they wanted a priest around for, just to be safe. The group's build looks a little lacking as well. Ranger & 2 warriors. Goblin Slayer...

    You're right. If you click on the title, it takes you to the page that actually plays. Good call.

    Car Audio wiring question.

    When dealing with factory systems, it's a difficult thing to say for sure. I know many "premium audio" systems have independent smaller amps across every speaker. Definitely on the sub. In some cases they work fine, assuming you just connect the lead cable up, telling the amp to turn itself...

    That's something I would never even consider doing, but it's fascinating none the less. Very interesting. EDIT: Oh yeah, my computer hasn't reset since that first and only time when I fixed the RAM. All is good now. I'm considering a new video card at some point, but I don't really "need" one.

    Regarding Goblin Slayer - That elven arrow was pretty sweet. And the episode ended on a high point. The guitar sound as the group left the clearing got me pumped... but then episode over.

    I finally got around to watching the end of High Score Girl. I ended up really liking this show. It was a love story full of the games I played in my youth. Pretty good stuff.

    Slime is great, as is Bunny Girl. Goblin Slayer rules like Berserk. Except, I don't think they would remove nipples in Goblin Slayer.

    This season is great thus far. The 6th episode was star studded. Frank's new love interest is none other than Peggy Bundy. Lip's new acquaintance is Courtney Cox. And the priest that V & Kev meet is the one, the only, Bob Saget. Ha, this is great.

    This week's Slime was solid. He can now upgrade everyone with names. Might be due to the internal Dragon. Or maybe it's just because he was also named. Will future kids in the named goblin families also be named by their parents, or will they just be "goblin" once more?

    I had a chicken cheese steak from there last night, and I like it. For the price, it's much better than the standard cheese steak (doesn't have nearly enough meat in it). The chicken one is loaded. It's as good as it gets without returning back to Philly.

    Hmm... Tough choice. If you had a throw away phone that you could connect to the app with using the company's WIFI, then bluetooth said phone onto a set of speakers, that would be your best choice. Either that or maybe the company has a computer somewhere that could connect to the sirius/xm...

    The computer ran for a few hours after that first reset without error, and has been fine since. I'll chalk it up to maybe the building power flickering or something.

    So I did that. Enabled XMP and made sure it was set at 2133 MHz. Then I re-ran that file to see my settings. Asus PRIME Z270-A Performance Results - UserBenchmark Says that I still need to enable it. Not sure why, because I even opened the BIOS a 2nd time to verify that it saved the settings.

    Slime is top tier as well. And I just watched the second episode of Sumo. It's dumb, but I'm enjoying it. It'll probably be the sumo version of Haikyuu. They haven't done any special moves yet, but it may happen.
