awesome!!

it was not expensive as I recall, and you may also be able to get a tape deck for not too much these days. or check online to see if there’s someone in durham selling used tape decks - that’s absolutely a thing with turntables, i discovered recently.

i think the issue with tapes (and records) is analog to digital conversion. there may well be a cable that handles that, but back when i got this box that probably wasn’t an option.

yes. you’re welcome to borrow mine if you would like! i had forgotten it until i started packing to move.

bear in mind this is probably 10-15 years old so technology may have advanced!

i have a digitizing device that i ran across recently. you may need something like that? It accepts input from the regular RCA cables your tape deck would have and sends digitized output via USB. i’ll run upstairs and get a photo for you.

maybe they pick a few people who will probably wash out early but who will make for good TV.

I have come away with a list of skills I want to try, I have to hand it to them, they do test a variety of skills.

it is, though i’ll admit i get worked up over some of the judging, and some of the things the competitors say they’ve never done. never put in an invisible zip? you’ve watched the show, right?

i’ve been ignoring bluesky and just saw this. i’ve been watching this too and i’m sooo glad it’s finally available in the US!

just ride around cary with us sometime, there’s far too many and we roast each and every one.

yeah this lady was some piece of work.

btw we let her off leash at the baseball diamond many times, definitely never left a mess, and always left immediately if someone else wanted to come in. we never had anyone warn us to stop.

they most certainly did
