@npub1xed…yg9w Generally speaking I disagree. If the site was Next.js, Drupal or any other countless number of systems that generate content on the fly and isn't a static site will fall victim to this same issue.

@npub1xl5…wsca I replied the last time you mentioned this on how to solve this issue for a WordPress site, did you happen to see it?

@npub1xxt…f2tp I haven't used apache in a long time and I haven't seen this before so I'm not sure what to say here…other than I did find some hints while searching.

I don’t like Google Chrome today for the same reason everyone didn’t like IE years ago. People act like it is the only browser so they only test on that browser.

@npub188q…3jlx GNOME 2 was peak Linux DE but what I really liked was the enlightenment window manager with its animations

@npub1fq5…p8du the distortion is present across different turntables and it is just in some spots but always the same spots.
For cleaning I use a wet method + vinyl vac. Most of the time with new records I simply wet the record with groovewasher solution, let it sit then vacuum it off (no rubbing) to get rid of paper dust and static. If that isn't enough I will follow up with the same process but I actually wipe it with a microfiber block then rinse it with a solution of h20 + surfactant and vac it

@npub1fq5…p8du @npub15fq…j8f3 one other person has basically said the same. Turntable is a ATH-LP120x USB which I have had for a few years now, really like it but you can really only adjust the tracking weight. No VTA adjustment on this. I have replaced but stuck with the stock AT-VM95E.

@npub1fq5…p8du @npub15fq…j8f3 surface noise is one thing as long as it is more or less consistent. I have some albums that…I can't fathom how a needle flying through a groove doesn't produce at least some noise and then others that are closer to that familiar cassette tape hiss that is there but not above the music. Then I have some totally new albums with groove damage so bad it skips, some that have fine scratches in various places that are very audible and others with bad spots of distortion.

@npub15fq…j8f3 @npub1fq5…p8du I’ve slowed down on buying vinyl for this reason. At least 50% have very annoying pressing issues and I the hassle of exchanging just isn’t feasible where I live on top of the time it takes.
