Do It Yourself CD Changer

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the surprisingly-elegant dept.

SuperDuG writes "This is a true homebrew solution to saving a few bucks when it comes to cd changers. And to make it even better the whole setup is controlled by none other than linux. Seems like a nice setup to do batch burns without user interaction. Source is provided if you wanted to build your own." Not sure if this is very practical, or even if it would be cheaper than buying a changer, but it sure looks cool.

    President Bush Reduces Stress in Capital Fashion

    Washington, D.C. White House staffers report that the stress of the Israeli-Palestinian and Iraqi conflicts are taking a psychological toll on President Bush. Declining the counsel of some of his advisors to seek support from
    a therapist, the President chose to rely on his faith and select meditation audio recordings for comfort. ?The President now has a recording for each of the 152 executions he oversaw as Governor of Texas,? a highly-placed White House source says. The source claims that the audio recordings have allowed the President to sleep soundly for the first time in nearly two months. The idea for the recordings came to one of the President?s advisors through careful observation of the President?s daily routine. ?The President sometimes would walk by the cafeteria on hamburger day and get this far away look in his eyes. We could tell he missed those simpler times back in Texas,? says the source. The recordings, provided by Texas Governor Perry, gave instant relief: ?The whimpering and sizzling sooth him. They not only bring a little of the sounds of Texas to the District, they help him remember the Lone Star State?s sights and smells as well.? While Governor Perry continues to supply him with the most recent recordings in full Dolby digital surround on DVD-Audio discs, staffers report that on particularly dark days the President only finds solace in the monaural reel-to-reels from his first term as governor.
