Direct Attached Storage. It’s kinda like NAS but not in network. One could argue it’s just an external hard drive. If I remember correctly I went with one because it was more affordable. I was on a tight budget at the time.

• Steam Deck (I spend 90% of my time gaming on my couch than at my desk)
• Minidisc Players (There was some MD hate in the other thread but community-made software has come a long way)
• Kobo (Freeing myself from Amazon's DRM)
• DAS (Creating my own media collection on Jellyfin)

• First generation Samsung Android Watch (Just plain useless)
• Asus Transformer TF101 Tablet (Bloated UI)
• Acer C720 Chromebook (a bit better after installing Xfce over ChromeOS)
• Fiio M11 DAP (it's chunky and I just never use it)

The 80s had amazing TV show theme songs. If I only had to pick one it would be Miami Vice.

My favorite film is Strange Days. When I was about 11 or 12 years old I saw the trailer on TV. The imagery and music in the trailer hooked me. I was too young to watch an R-rated film at that time, but about a year later I watched it on the cable box at home. I loved the film. The opening scene set the grittiness of the rest of the film. It was also the first time I watched scenes from a film shot in first person, and they did all that before small cameras like GoPros existed.

The soundtrack is terrific. I think I bought the CD at Tower Records, I still have that in storage somewhere. Since the DVD release back in the early 2000s I've made it a thing to watch the film every December.

I love SomaFM! Been listening since the early days. My favorite channels: Groove Salad Classic, DefCon, Vaporwaves, Department Store Christmas (during the holidays).
