    Oh, not with sound. I do analysis on much lower frequency sensors. I used to work with sound, but it was the sound of milk swishing through pipes!

     

    Milk swishing through pipes? Interesting. Is that some sort of bottling engineer?

    I've forgotten if this is the right thread for it, but... guys... I've found a miracle. A rum that tastes so good that I'm able to drink it neat (or which just a few drops of lime at least). I've never been able to drink hard liquors neat, and even on the rocks is challenging. Well, I guess it's also thanks to practicing with rums a bit, but man... this one is just an explosion of tastes, first in the nose, then in the mouth, and has a really pleasant aftertaste of caramel & spice... and doesn't burn that much. I'm talking about the Ron Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva.

     

    This is the first time I bought such an expensive rum (it was about 50€), to celebrate after a milestone with a new product at work. So far I didn't really imagine that rums could be this good. Once I gifted someone a similarly expensive one, Ron Zacapa Solero 23 or something, and I just couldn't drink it at all. But at that time I had less practice and was forced to try it neat without anything. It's supposedly actually very similar to the Diplomatico, so I wonder if I should give it another try if opportunity presents.

     

    BTW. Chip Dykstra is the man who I turn to whenever I decide what rum to buy next https://therumhowlerblog.com/rum-reviews/. Rarely I've been disappointed with his recommendations (only with that Ron Zacapa).

     

    I felt the same way when I started to get into whisky! Past-me would cringe at the thought of me drinking straight scotch


  3. Hi all. I've been a reader since the time when Chris would insert fun Wizard songs into the podcasts, but I've never jumped into the forums. I don't actually play many video games at all but I love the podcasts and that Dark Souls streamer with the glasses.

    I'm breedonvssuperman on Twitch, but as I currently live in Europe, I don't often get to catch the streams live!
