@WiredDifferently I am trying to figure out the catalog thing. I have purchased the same CD three times. I felt lucky to find it, each time. Nothing at all wrong with the first disc.
With respect to cataloguing compilations, I have a section for continuous DJ mixes, electronica/EDM not mixed, soundtracks, themed tributes, holiday themed, and other general compilations. I think there's a section for compilations based on decade or year--I went through 70s and 80s nostalgia pretty hard core.
@WiredDifferently I'm using Exact Audio Copy which offers four options: freed, CueTools, MusicBrainz, and GD3. On Apple Music, I'm using what's built-in. Cover art matching in EAC is much better, but it's easy to edit what Apple gets close, or plain wrong.
@chrisheck If you subscribe to Apple Music or Spotify, there are public playlists of music from the show that are astonishingly complete. The show ran for 12 seasons with about 6 or 7 shows each. Episodes are short, lasting in the 20-25 minute range.
@odd No, you’re 100 percent correct. Both parties are authoritarian and right of center.
@chrisheck LOL! I do have a check up coming soon!
@patrickrhone Yep. Drinks just make me sleepy now. Buzzy, but sleepy.
@patrickrhone Looking sharp as always!
@odd I have been using the MakeMKV application and Handbrake for compression. But it is a labor of love. You have to want it. I dive in and do a bunch of rips on a weekend, but then it might be another week or two before I do more.
@philomath Strongly considering adding the text of your reply into my text subsitutions on Apple devices.
@jemostrom On the one hand, I think iOS is amazing and the hardware is so capable, so I wonder what is taking so long. One the other, I read about app approval horror stories and severe limits on access to APIs and I'm not surprised that developers maybe aren't excited about porting apps
@grubz That reload took longer than I hoped, but back in business on the most current release with all devices working, so far as I know.
@grubz I did a kind of mid-stream jump from Ubuntu to UbuntuStudio. There was some hilarity as I navigated the change to KDE Plasma, but there were also some consistent nags about uninstalled Snaps that wouldn't install. So I thought I'd move to a clean install of Ubuntu Studio. And then I had no audio and no recognized audio devices. So we're going back to straight Ubuntu to start over
@flargh And then the side-eye you get when you protest “I don’t work here”
@hjalmer.com My posts start at micro.blog where I write in Markdown format. Micro.blog allows my to syndicate to other open protocols, which is how most of my posts end up in/on Mastodon/Blusky/Nostr. The link previews are a byproduct of that—unfortunately I don’t know how to answer better than that
@viticci Thank you for sharing the Forever Notes system. I’m about ready to kill my Evernote subscription after about 15 years and transition fully to Apple Notes
@grubz It feels like construction follows me. I seem to pick places to live that kick of multiple-year projects. SO if you want new infrastructure, find me a place to live, nearby. 😉
@ner3y If I ever have the opportunity, I will be there: Kaltenberger Ritterturnier?
@mbkriegh 4 stars, would recommend!
@jemostrom I was definitely feeling it
@tyrel I feel this deeply, especially as a parent who started late. "What's that old white guy doing around our kids?" Frankly, I'm terrified and I rarely take pictures.
@catmachine.com A perfect album that came out when I was 21:
@pimoore As long as you don't also say "random musings"
@numericcitizen I listen to my library streamed via iTunes Match while commuting every day. Occasionally I stream music I don't own via Apple Music, but in lieu of a device with enough storage to hold my whole library, iTunes Match works for me.
@Gabz I used a Switch Lite like that one for quite a while. It was my kids’ until we upgraded them to the regular Switch. The hook was set and now I own an OLED model and aftermarket controllers. Nintendo has a very good experience and I love that I can carry many worlds around with me
@Griffey I found this. www.al-tn-trailoftears.net/the-ride/... Looks like an event to commemorate what happened and to benefit First Nations.
