Wow, serious rite of passage: my younger son playing his first lp... On our turntable unused for a decade or two, with a just-replaced cartridge... These speakers are also getting their first airing despite me having had them for years (gifted by a mate as excess to requirements)...

Mr 14, standing side on in his school uniform with phone recording this epic experience: excited to be hearing his first LP for the first time. This is in our lounge with Tannoy speakers on the floor, cobbled together speaker cables, and stereo components (Yamaha power amp & radio receiver, Onkyo turntable, and Technics dual cassette deck. Incidentally, the latter was bought from Lan Pham's husband 7-8 yrs ago) in a home made ply rack sitting on the carpet in front of curtains blocking out the …

I was looking to buy a new phone. I was considering the #hmd Pulse Pro...but a phone I can buy on their website at the moment is going to stop getting patches in May 2027... eWaste in ~1 year after I buy it.
On Samsung's webite I can buy a A17 5g that they claim will get security patches until 2031.

Gonna give that a longer go. Thanks @…
