It’s lolcat for “borrowing”

TBF, it’s not the first time the LTS base changes, and it wasn’t a disaster at all.

Despite, there’s the Debian and Linux mint repos, as well as the entirety of flatpak.

It will be fine.

Yeah some looks of admiration. Go dude go!

Except one

The only point I can say is that editing text on the terminal isn’t as simple as a regular text field. And AFAIK the only way to write a query on a regular text editor would be to write it, save to file, run file…

TBH if it’s just for that I’d rather use nix packages. But flatpak’s sandboxed app are better for sus packages or proprietary-might-spy-everywhere packages.

I personally only use navidrome’s web UI for full random, or listenBrainz when I know what I want to play. LB’s Navidrome integration is brand new so there’s some instances where the played track isn’t the correct one, although it does help a lot if the track is properly tagged.

Although I don’t like using random really much. My collection is vast, and some albums are really just there to be played every 5 months. That’s why I prefer radio that actually recommends my most listened to tracks first, then lesser listened after a while of not listening to them

What!? And then next you’ll tell me they are not wombs either?! I don’t believe you

My latest setup is probably too complicated for what I need… But it works.

• The music server is a Navidrome server

• I play those files using ListenBrainz so that I have centralised public playlists and being able to play tracks rereleased in multiple albums.

• To add files to Navidrome, I use a local copyparty for a webui, as well syncthing to have a subset of the library always locally available in case of the server crashing or internet outage

• When I don’t have the mood for any particular playlist, I use Alistral to generate a radio based on my listening habits

• Of course 99% of the files are tagged using MusicBrainz Picard

Best part, the whole stack is foss software! And self host able too. I just don’t self host listenBrainz as I prefer the public instance

I am guilty of this but for a different reason: setting up debugging for clis in rust is hard

I love the debugger. I use it all the time I can. But when debugging cli it’s a pain as you need to go back in the launch.json file, remake the argument list, then come back to run debug, find out why tf it doesn’t find cargo when it’s the PATH… again, then actually debug.

I oversimplified it but the actual process was to zip files to send to an FTP server

The cron zipped the files to send in the same directory as the zipped files, then sent the zip, then deleted the zip

Looks fine, right? But what if the FTP server is slow and uploading take more time than the hourly cron dispatch? You now have a second script that zip all the folder, with the previous zip file, which will slow down the upload, etc…

I believe may have been started by an FTP upload erroring out and forcing an early return without having a cleanup, and progressively got worse

… I suppose this happened. The logs were actually broken and didn’t actually add the message part of the error object, and only logging the memory address to it

Well it’s not that simple… Because whoever wrote that made it way too complicated (and the production version has been tweaked without updating the dev too)

A clean rewrite with some guard clauses helped remove the haduken ifs and actually zipping the file outside of the zipped directory helped a lot

Oh no need. The client didn’t noticed anything in 6 years, and the reason why we had to check is because they wanted us to see if we could add this feature… That already existed.

Meanwhile, had to debug a script that zipped a zip recursively, with the new data appended. The server had barely enough storage left, as the zip took almost 200GB (the data is only 3GB). I looked at the logs, last successful run: 2019

Nope. The twins are from blue archive, Vita from Honkai Impact 3rd, and the train from factorio

The length is actually the official model being like that. Curveness was to make something cute but actually it seems to not be a common thing people can do?

You can’t bend your fingers like that!? … TIL not everyone can

TBF, if your step by steps instructions works, it doesn’t matter how complicated the command is.

Oh come on! I at least type the beginning so that it filters the history
