Geekery, thou art a harsh mistress
Currently I am:
Downloading music from AllofMP3.com that is at a higher bit-rate than the music I had (discovered that all of my Sisters of Mercy was at 56kbps, having been encoded about 9 years ago when space was at a higher premium than quality).
Copying all of the music I like onto my new 8GB iPod Nano.
Converting this fantastic talk on MITs fabrication labs into avi (so I can watch it on TV rather than the PC). (cheers to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
heron61 for that one)
Strangely, my PC has ground to a near halt. If I did this kind of thing a lot then I suspect I'd need one of those fancy multi-core things I've heard so much about :->
