darko

By anders pearson 09 Oct 2002

you’d think i’d have learned by now that staying up till all hours at night watching movies wouldn’t exactly make it easier to wake up in the morning.

<p>alas, i did it again. up till 2 last night watching <a href="http://www.donniedarko.com/">donnie darko</a>, which was excellent.</p>

<p>i only had the TV on because i was testing out a homemade coax to optical <a href="http://www.epanorama.net/documents/audio/spdif.html"><span class="caps">SPDIF</span></a> converter (you can do it with just a red <span class="caps">LED</span> and a 120 Ohm resistor). </p>

<p>on a related note, does anyone have any suggestions for a good linux compatible sound card with <span class="caps">SPDIF</span> (preferably optical) output? my old soundblaster 16 isn&#8217;t really cutting it anymore.</p>
