The Lab DX
Got the Mountain Dew in the shot this time.

Fall's officially here in the Lab. This time I went for a bit of a challenge. Not just to do the usual of CD info and ripping and whatnot but also making this very post from the Titanium. And it worked, with great difficulty. Getting the image was the easiest part by utilising DAVE and my big boy file box. MR Forums' attachment box was completely non-functional, so the Garden's image hosting it was. I also thought that logging in was completely borked as well, but no, it was just me not putting my password in correctly. I had to put in my password. My password manager doesn't come in a Mac OS 9 flavour. But if you're seeing this, it did work. :D

A bit off topic, but what is 'chillhop'....?
Never heard of any of the artists on that cd.

It is a group of Lo-Fi artists. One of my favourites too :) https://youtube.com/c/Chillhopdotcom

@Doq I am jealous, I wish I had bought the CD of Fall Essentials 2022 like you. One of my favourites along with Spring 2022! I want to listen to it on my PM G4 with the Pro Speakers but I am stuck because I want to get the file onto Mac OS 9 with only PPC. I can’t seem to get the PPCMC file conversion function to work. It keeps failing to convert the downloaded m4a to mp3.

I love musical subgenres - I make my own up to stay relevant....currently listening to my stovewave playlist followed by some cardio-tronic beats...
With a friend, while bored in a train, we used to invent musical sub-genres names... The most stupid the better.
The best we came with I think, was : Hard Rock Scatophile Morbiter
We were young and inventive...

And there was me thinking /r/VintageApple was just a place for people to fawn over photos of Macs doing nothing ;)
Honestly, when I replied the post had been out there for 56 minutes already. So I thought it was probably too late.

I've only ever met/communicated with one other redditer on that subreddit that lives in my general area so I guess obscurity worked for me this time. And the price is good (free).

The place I'm meeting the guy is down the street a bit from where the company I work for is located, so probably about a 30 minute drive if that.

You might have better luck hopping on the Creators Program and grabbing their mp3s; at least the ones available for download-- it looks like 24 of the 26 tracks are available to creators. Interestingly, there's a track on the CD that isn't in the release compilation on YouTube. Your mention of the Pro Speakers has given me the idea of popping it in to the Six Dollar eMac.

I'm mad I didn't pick up Winter 2020's; that one's my all-time favourite.

Well, that was a bust!

Card is not seeing the boot drive. I have no idea why this worked for years with the old SIIG card and with a brand new SIIG replacement card it doesn't

But I'm cutting my losses. Put the other SATA card back in and pulled the 3TB drive. This 'NAS' will only be sharing one 6TB drive now. I've got other places I can put the 3TB drive.
