evander has such a strange set of views on economics
it never makes any sense to me and the conclusion is always that whatever gives him what he wants at the lowest price is the best thing for the world at large
I don't think I have a favourite beer these days. I just have a bunch that I like and being in London there are a crapton of beers I've never had before, so I experiment a lot
The tap vs. bottle vs. can argument is my favorite honestly.
"The beer picks up a taste from the aluminum can, bottles are superior, unless you can get it on tap!"
"Guess what the beer on tap comes in!"
"Gold plated cables give you much better sound quality!"
"What's the wires in the cable made out of?"
"Copper."
Gold does give you a better sound quality, but that only matters in studios where you are really trying to sum correctly and get a consistent stream. But, yeah, in home audio it's pretty ridiculous.
As for the kegs: surface area, brah. Also, you could just get cask ale like a real man.
Gold does NOT give you better sound quality. At all. Even a little. What it does give you is a cable with contacts that won't corrode with constant plugging and unplugging in a humid climate. And a corroded cable will sound worse.
But in brand new cables? You won't be able to tell the difference. Copper contacts would be even better than gold in a vacuum.
Well you'd know better than I would, but I've been told by others that know a lot more than I do that the metal is pretty important for summing and I believe one dude talked about keeping everything in phase, but I couldn't tell you why.
Is it because he was trying to sell you something made out of space metal? :P
Alright, so even though I said that beer tastes like ass earlier, I have been thinking about trying it out again. What would you guys prefer I start off on to try and get an acquired taste for it? Keep in mind that I really hate the bitter taste of it, so ones that don't have it as bad would be good.
Also keep in mind I barely know what the different types of beer there are.
Beer is an aquired taste. Not everyone likes every type and even then it can take years to discover your particular pallete.
I prefer ambers over lighter colored beers and I'm not a fan of really dark beers. All comes down to a very subjective opinion.
Not exactly head of the Preacher Fanclub, but he's right on the money here. And some people may just not like beer and never do so.
I've even found my palette has changed a couple times over the years.
Quitting smoking last winter has affected it quite a bit as well (though that's probably an obvious reason).
Because that's how you drink it. Draft Blue Moon without an orange is almost undrinkable for me. Like seriously I love Blue Moon, but if a restaurant is out of oranges, I would honestly rather have a Coors Light.
That you would ever go for a Coors Light means that we must simply agree to disagree on our beer tastes.
I hate Coors Light. So I guess you just proved my point for me. My point was: You don't know a FUCKING THING about Blue Moon and I am about ready to challenge you to a duel.

It comes from my father more so then me. He loves darks, but even admits he didn't drink beer until he was mid twenties and only really developed a taste for them into his 30's.
Preacher on
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
Thanks guys, I'll keep those in mind. I've tried to like wine, but all the different ones I've tasted all taste the same to me. My wife and I seem to be the only ones that don't like beer or wine.
I know it is an acquired taste, and I have already tried some different beers (although it looks like they were all the same type, so trying different ones will be interesting).

Nah, it was just a conversation with a dude who has a fairly sizeable studio who was telling me about how he had avoided spending money on cables for a long time but he was finally convinced he needed them after a good deal of research.
...and I believe one dude talked about keeping everything in phase, but I couldn't tell you why.
Haven't heard that one before. I'd love to hear an explanation of that one if you end up hearing it.
I am trying to imagine what that means
I mean I know gold is a good conductor, but if you are conducting an electric signal there shouldn't be any way it could get out of "phase" in any way that I understand the word
without argument Milwaukee's Best is the worst beer on earth
the beast
Quoted for truth
it is followed closely by Natty light (yes there is a light version of natural ice)
The brewing process for beast i believe involves giving sewer water to rats and collecting their urine.

Most research on stuff like this, especially if conducted online, is 100% bullshit.

There were less than 40 seconds between matches that lasted 15 minutes.
How the fuck can that be "constant?"
every time there was any possibility for me to hear your voice, i heard it
constantly
and the content was basically a consistent chorus of "hey X did you like the way i burned you hey Y did you like the way i sniped you hey Z what about that bomb"
i'm just saying it was tiresome to deal with all night, dude
maybe you think it's fine and that's the way you like to roll. in that case, don't change!
Yeah, if we were meant to talk over live, there would be microphones for it. Oh, wait...
It pisses me off (and I think rightfully so) that you came into chat, called me "the opposite of fun," and accused me of trash-talking "constantly" based on actually hearing me for roughly three fucking percent of the night, and then made some shit up about me being a poor loser.
But hey, like I said earlier, I guess it's not my place to wash the sand out of your cunt. I'll try to be more careful with your delicate sensibilities next time.

iirc, when you have as many hookups and patching as this guy has going on, the two currents have a hard time lining up correctly and can end up phasing and canceling.
But that might have been me putting words in his mouth, because he was going pretty in depth, and I'm just starting to study the electrical engineering part of sound audio.

I guess they mean it can keep the phases separate in like a three-phase system so it can carry more electricity?
Why would I waste perfectly good chocolate by putting it in beer? Assuming this is what a chocolate stout is.
Essentially.
I can't remember who made it, but at a beer fest thingy someone had a Double Chocolate Stout that also used Krispy Kreme's doughnut glaze.
Droooooooool
southern tier?
edit: probably not, Southern Tier does make a good chocolate stout though.

No, it is good and you are wrong
But blue moon is nowhere near the beer of choice; though i will settle for it in lieu of something better
I bet you like chocolate stouts
don't you

I think Fat Tire has a really terrible aftertaste. Or 'finish' if you want to be all berr/wine-taster snobbhy about it, I guess?
But, yeah Mothership Wit? One of the few wheat beers I LOVE.

You best not be hating on chocolate stouts, Arch.
Mirror Pond is good times too.
Surely!
He was hating on Chocolate yesterday.
They can be alright. I guess I go for Brown Ales? I kind of did a whirl wind tour of beer last summer in AZ so everything sorta runs together.
