Less than the No Kings Protest. Looked like some idiots went to it. Nothing like celebrating a dictator in what’s supposed to be a democracy. If the government can afford his parade, why can’t medicare, medicaid, and social security be paid for?

MAGA people think the people at the No Kings Protest were paid to go, LOL. They just repeat their propaganda like a parrot would. They are far too gone to know the difference between reality and propaganda.

Oh and the people protesting against the king, outnumbers the MAGA counter protesters. According to their propaganda, that isn’t possible. Well, not everybody has been brainwashed.

He’s already killed a bunch of people, including children, with his policies. Maybe not Americans, but people. In the end, there is no country, we are all people.

Pro life my ass. If republicans were pro life, they’d impeach Trump.

He may very well start a war, or at least order his troops to murder people who protest. That ain’t pro life.

Nice place to live currently. At least, if I lose my health care, I won’t have to eat anymore. I should have let go when I had the chance. Instead, I get to see a shit ton of evil and suffering.

Louder yes, but that actually makes it sound worse most of the time. At least when there’s static from the radio. Record didn’t sound great either. Too much bass.

The Bluetooth Transmitter has a volume control on it, so does it have some kind of amp? If so, it’s double ampped.

And if it isn’t PHONO output, well it still works with a PHONO amp. Too lazy and cheap to buy the line amp. I think the antenna on this thing sucks for the radio. Time to switch back to record to see if it really sounds horrible. Not great, but maybe not as bad as radio.

The problem might be Bluetooth Transmitter, adjusting volume doesn’t work right, have to reboot the thing.

Set volume to 10, instead of the max on Bluetooth Transmitter, reboot it, and the radio won’t sound as bad, but still bad. Might need to go down to 5. Probably have to reboot it, cause of what it’s connecting to, my computer, acting as a dumb speaker.

Five too low, eight might be fine though. Too bad I can’t adjust the bass. Should have got an amp with controls, not all automatic. No hum on mine.

I could plug this amp into my other radio and see what it does. If it sounds bad, then it’s probably not using PHONO output on either. But I don’t want to unplug my desktop from my soundbase, just to borrow the cable.

LOL, I should have searched for bass before. It’s not for cheapo junk turntables. And not for the radio either.

I should unplug it, but I’m lazy. Is the Orbit turntable magnetic?

Sounds better now, unplugged the amp. Maybe a line amp would work. Probably not worth it.

That reply said to buy a name brand, why? I’m not an audiophile. I doubt I could tell the difference. Must have moved antenna to a better spot, less static and crap. Now might sound pretty much the same as my software radio, nice.

The Outer Worlds 2 will cost $80. If the price doesn’t ever go down, I won’t buy it. I could buy a used PS5 version perhaps, if it’s under $50.

Nope, I don’t care enough to shell out $80. Better things to buy for that much money.

I’ll just play Guild Wars 2 for free. Even if it someday costs money every month, it’ll be less then $80.

That’s what a lot of low income people lack. They blame everybody else for their problems. Hmm. sounds like Trump supporters.

I’d recommend getting a job that pays enough to live in a non low income place.

On another note, it’s nice having to go to the Post Office, to get a certified letter, because the mail person can’t deliver to the office apparently. Not even a bill, I already knew what it said. Next time it happens, I might know what it is. And if it’s from the doctor’s office, after I’ve been told something, I may not bother picking it up.

Well, Tim Cook gave Trump money, so probably.

At least iPadOS will get proper windows like macOS.

I might not bother updating though, I’d reckon I won’t live much longer, or I’ll lose my freedom for not being a MAGA patriot.

But I need a bigger iPad for the update, so you can watch porn, while writing a love letter to a porn star of course. Can’t buy any new Apple stuff anyways, they like dicktators.

Tim Cook is a fucking fascist sympathizer, he claims he donated for unity, bullshit. He’s violating the constitution at every chance he gets.

Well, Apple doesn’t believe in human rights. Once Trump starts murdering Americans, Apple and all the other dicks, can enjoy their profits going down. Less people = less money. Kind of funny how stupid they are. They want more money, instead they will get less.

Hopefully Apple goes out of business someday, and Google too.

Listening through RCA LINE OUT For amplifier device listening, first reduce the volume level to minimum. Insert the white and red plugs of the RCA cable into the corresponding colors on the unit. Then insert the opposite end into the amplifier device. Be sure to connect the white plug to the white jack and the red plug to the red jack.

From the manual.

That might be why it doesn’t sound too good, I have the volume all the way down. Maybe the amp only works with the shitty built in speaker. Now to order the phono amp and find out, if not, I’ll order Douk Audio L1 Mini Stereo Line Level Booster Amplifier Audio Preamp with 20dB Gain and Volume Control.

If it sounds good enough, I might not need to spend $250 for a better one, not till this junk one dies. Except, it is smaller, the $250 one. Maybe I could put it where I wanted to put this one.

It says Line-Out jack though, so might not work. But the Douk thing costs more then the Pyle phono amp. So I bought the cheaper one first. I’ll need it for the $250 turntable anyways. And easier to fix the $250 one, if this dies or something, I’d have to email them to get replacement parts. Pain in the ass. And the $250 one is upgradable.

They suspended somebody for not agreeing with Trump’s unconstitutional BS.

Looks like all the news on TV, is going the way of propaganda, like Fake(Fox) News. If you want the actual news, you’ll have to go on the internet. And once that is censored, you’ll have to illegally bypass it. But I think a better option, would be to leave the US.

Congress just sits on their ass and does nothing. Now if Obama, was doing this shit, they’d impeach him.

Apparently Trump wants to be allowed to torture people as well. Paid article, so couldn’t read it.

And no the military isn’t going to do anything, they are following his unconstitutional actions. Even though they take an oath to the constitution as well. They aren’t supposed to listen to dicktators.

One song on this record sounds great, but not all of them sound as good. Could be the record, or the player. Somebody said the $200 record player, from Audio-Technica, sounds better then the cheaper ones. Even if you paid $200 for a junk brand, it probably would still sound better. You could gamble on certain models of Victrola, but I’ll pass on another Victrola. The Audio-Technica is fully automatic too. Doesn’t really matter though. The $120 one, from somebody else probably sounds better then what I have too, but might be hard to put the belt on or something.

I can record it over Bluetooth too, but no point until I have a better player.

I might get shot by a Nazi before I can order one though, or there could be a civil war, and no more money. You can call it Trump’s and Russia’s civil war. That’s what they want, clearly, by going after California, who pays the most federal taxes in the country.

Though most of California will probably burn down at some point in the near future, so no more money either way from California for the Trump regime.

I’m surprised the military hasn’t intervened yet. Maybe they are waiting for something specific to happen.

This is why you don’t marry religion and politics.

Oh and I thought republicans were pro life? Only pro life about something that may or may not exist yet. LOL. They need to prove the soul, and when the soul enters the body. Oh wait, they don’t believe in reincarnation either, so the soul doesn’t “enter” the body. But freedom of religion, means abortions shouldn’t be illegal or legal, it’s up to each individual.

And why do republicans hate weed so much?

I think my software radio sounds better then the radio on this record player. Too much static. Might as well get an actual radio, or use the one I have somewhere. I think it can be powered without batteries. Does it have a 3.5mm jack? I forgot. When I replace this record player, I might need to get a switch for 3.5mm or RCA, so I can plug two things into the Bluetooth transmitter, without unplugging anything. A receiver is too big, and I’m using Bluetooth headphones, so what’s the point?

Well, at least I’ll get to move finally, if I have no money. Maybe. Or get rid of all my stuff, and find a nice cozy cave to live the rest of my short days in.

If weed should be illegal, all the booze Hegseth or whatever the idiots name is, drinks, should also be illegal. I don’t personally use weed, nor would I hangout with anybody that does. But maybe I should post a fake photo of me smoking a joint in my apartment, and see if I get an eviction notice, LOL. Then she can stop saying the office wasn’t reading this site. I’ll just say prove it’s a real photo. Or not, I don’t mind getting evicted. If it’s about protecting people from something, cigarettes should be illegal too, and so should vaping.

Hmm, maybe sugar filled candy should be illegal as well, and soda. Especially diet coke.

Not sure any record player can flip the record though, to play on the other side.

Can the $120 one be bought on eBay refurbished for less? Used or new, no refurbs. Is there another good budget turntable? One that it’s easier to put the belt on, and less then $200. I don’t need Bluetooth. Oh yeah, that’s why I won’t buy the $120 one, the Bluetooth is always on, and will auto connect to crap that isn’t your’s.

Eh, just pay $50 more for this. Looks like it has a dust cover. $50 more then the Audio-Technica. Maybe next month, I’ll have to see what Trump does next. He’s making America Great Again, for Nazis. Their pre amp is $109, Amazon has one for under $20. Does the one under $20 suck? Probably. But good enough for me. I save a lot of money. Ok, get the custom one for $329, and electronic for speed changes, that way you don’t have to fiddle with the belt to change speeds. Where do you move the belt to change speeds though? Hmm, $80 just for that, maybe not. Just play the slow ones only, problem solved. I think you can buy the cheap one, and upgrade it over time.. So if it pisses you off moving belt, just upgrade it.

It’s settled, the Orbit one is what I might buy, depending on what happens in the world. Too bad they don’t have refurbs.

Hmm, I should connect more stuff to Linux to play the audio from, like my phone. Then I can listen to music and whack off at the same time, with headphones on. If everything is connected to it, then I never need to connect headphones to anything else.

Now to look for the best budget amp. That site blows ass, link to something you can’t buy anymore, thanks. Good news, the cheap under $20, is on one list. No need to keep looking then. Or pay $130 for Pro-Ject. Frequently returned though, think the cheap one is better.

Either that, or Namecrane blocked Bunny’s IP addresses. I just changed the DNS to point directly to Namecrane. Can’t even login to Bunny CDN, says some HTTP error. I didn’t try a different browser, or clearing my cookies. Looks like I can login now.

Well, it has money in it, that’ll never be used now. That was a waste.
