^^^ So -- in 2023 the pinnacle of home entertainment must be a colonoscopy?
Am I interpreting that correctly?
Yeah, yeah, I know...
but this got me to thinkin' -- there's a real opportunity here for Zoom videoconferencing, I think. I mean, most of those webcams are pretty small... Zoom colonoscopy could catch on, don't you think?

Seems like they missed an opportunity to come up with something more creative than "Mac Man" to get around the Pac Man copyright, but I'm not sure what it would be. 🤔
Yes, that is a challenge. 😂Brian

No, it's ugly.
The juxtaposition of the F10 and the Toyota (I thin) behind it is... striking.
It'd be even better if it were a Rogue... or a Juke.

Since I know that I have a tendency to go a little bit into the weeds
when discussing things like loudspeaker loads and amplifier capability, I thought I'd share this rather cute illustration of real power (power that can do electrical work), reactive power (which is kind of useless to the end user) and power factor. 
(full disclosure: yeah, I saw it at ASR)
Remember that the reactive part of a complex load like a loudspeaker depends on frequency -- just in case you know anyone who thinks that any amplifier and any loudspeaker will be fine together.
