The best news.
Whenever I have to type a word similar to that, I normally google it, which finds the correct spelling and then copy-paste it into whatever I am doing.
I use a combo of Roku and Firesticks through the house. Since I have a raspberry pi with pihole on it all the ads and telemetry is blocked, or at least majority of it is.
I believe it will happen. In only 1 year, this place went from ghost town to 30+ comments on most posts. Give it a few more years of people spreading the word and reddit continuing to make people go elsewhere, and it will almost be the same.
I just learned about this from John Oliver. The episode came out about a month ago. Doesn’t sound like a great idea to go after them, of course…
Servers would probably be way easier than workstations if you ask me. If they were virtual, just bring up the remote console and you can do it all remotely. Even if they were physical I would hope they have an IP KVM attached to each server so they can also remotely access them as well. 450 sucks but at least they theoretically could have done every one of them without going anywhere.
There are also options to do workstations as well, but almost nobody ever uses those services so those probably need to be touched one by one.
I used to use Subsonic, but it’s become too outdated for me sadly. I switched to a fork Navidrome which updates a few times a year and enjoy the improvements it’s been providing. I use it with the mobile app Symfonium and love that they are both improving the API to add additional features and options over what Subsonic offered. I run it on my Synology in Docker so you should have no issues either.
Everything I do is manual, I don’t really have duplicates unless I get singles then get the album once it releases. Even then, unless the single comes with extra bonus tracks (seems to be a lost past time, never see this anymore) I will delete the singles after.
Here is the forum post I originally found years ago to setup music picard to tag multiple genres, which is the only setup that I have that took extra effort and not just use out of the box defaults.
I have a library that’s been growing for about 20 years now. I don’t think I got too serious until around 2009, which is when I discovered music servers to host my library and quickly realized how bad its structure was. It took years of me getting folders done correctly followed by then working on tags. Automation scared me to much since the results were not always 100%. Once it was done I have kept a system to keep it that way the best I can.
So for me once I get new content I use the app tagscanner to edit everything to the way I like, then I drop them into music Picard were I found a tutorial online a few years ago to set it up to just edit music genres. I found the one thing I never got right was music genres so finding this tool was incredible. Took months to run large sections of the library though. Now I got every track labeled with up to 5 genre tags. Once that is done I change folder names to what I want, drop them into my music directory folder which is root > artist > album (don’t care about year since it’s tagged). Scan music into my musicbee app and if any are missing covers I right click and tell it to find them. Then do a scan with navidrome to add it all there.
It’s only a little over a year old by now and even the first release was better than most of the stuff out there, but what it is today makes it better than anything I have ever used before on my phone and that includes premium apps like Spotify. At this point, I can’t even think of stuff I would need anymore, but I can’t wait to see what the next year brings.
Another note, the developer also created yatse, which I used over a decade ago as my remote control for kodi. Also equally as awesome as this is. He is very good at what he does, haha.
I currently use Navidrome as well, but I really don’t use smart playlists like that. For me, I use Symfonium on Android, which offers a ton of options and is incredible. In all my years of using a personal server to host music, this app has been the best by a lot. As for desktop apps, I don’t use them much, but when I do, I use Musicbee, which also offers unlimited customization if you’re willing to put time into it. It used to have a subsonic plug-in, but I have no idea if it’s still active. I just use the local file location and treat it as its own entity. If the subsonic plug-in still works, it may allow you to do what you want since everything seems possible in Musicbee from my experience.
Yeah Firefox prompted me as well, sadly cancel still doesn’t let you view this and is just an endless loop. Weird that they insist this much on using the app that the other option is useless… I’m guessing only non mobile version works ok.
Thank you, I will try this out. I did subscribe to a lot of stuff and kind of wondered what the point was since I didn’t see much of it. Guess this is why. Still getting used to the little differences from reddit.
Maybe I am doing it wrong but for me I see everything and only blocking a community let’s me no longer see it. I started doing that but only to communities I know I will never like the content. Stuff like news is a mixed bag.
Idk about everyone else but dam does Lemmy have some of the most brutal posts over and over… between these messed up news stories, brutal cop stories, and the constant politics posts is there even anything else to see? I think I’ve had enough internet tonight.
Wow that’s still active? I remember getting one when they had a kickstarter way back and realizing quick that it doesn’t matter how nice the hardware is if support is non existent. Glad to hear they are still around and I am guessing the community is much larger these days. I’ll have to see if I can dig my original model up from somewhere and see what I can use it for these days.
Been using it for a few years now. Love it. Only 1 place I used a card where a few months later I got a random charge come through and it blocked it. It felt great knowing I was safe since a card won’t accept charges from anyone but the original company the card was made for. I kind of wanted to reach out to the company and tell them something shady happened to your online site.
I used Twitter when it first released for maybe a few years tops. It was great when it was new, my hobbies had tons of people all looking to talk and share what they like. There were concert venues that did awesome contests and I won a bunch of free tickets to local shows and even a record for one of my favorite groups. I don’t know why I stopped but it is crazy to see what it has become today just from the links people share. I am kind of glad they stopped allowing link sharing unless you log in, even less of a reason to ever visit Twitter now.
Be sure to check what’s under the panel underneath the N64. Sometimes, you can find some extra cash.
