Apparently everybody before 1800 was a bad parent.

The PB&Js your mom made and cut into quarters diagonally and brought out to you and your friends playing in the backyard when you were six. The ones with the toothpicks in them, indicating they have crunchy PB. Best after sitting for ten minutes so the jelly starts to leak into the bread a little bit. With a glass of milk.

First, does your monitor have an audio output? Some do, and it will output the audio from the HDMI/DisplayPort input.

If not, you could get an HDMI audio extractor (like this one) to split the audio out of the HDMI signal. Then you can get any streaming device that has an HDMI out.

If your speakers are not powered and you are not married to your amplifier, you could buy an A/V receiver.

Wealthy people are mad that the government is not spending money on protecting their luxuries from the consequences of their own actions.

I love the analogy of Hummers overrunning Priuses, because while Hummers are more dangerous that Priuses, they both kill pedestrians, burn gasoline, and dump microplastics everywhere.

That would be wildly unreasonable even for a senior role.

I have a vintage turntable (70's Technics SL1300). Two years ago my kid wanted a turntable, and based on recommendations from r/budgetaudiophile, I got him a Fluance RT82. It sounds good, and has been trouble free, unlike my vintage one. I recommend it as a first turntable.

You do not want to stop getting security updates.
