Fresh out the oven!

Hmmm I seem to be still on v2.14.1 but I’m not getting an alert that it needs an update. Linkwarden is a solid piece of work Daniel. I use it daily. Thank you.

You’d be surprised. I do have a projects folder that is large. However, I do get around to most of it.

ESP-32 black magic

For their size, they are surprisingly powerful and very versatile. The Nomad project you posted looks intriguing. I could see that being useful when we’re out on the pontoon because the CD player has long since died and there is zero I want to listen to on terra-radio. He even includes the NomadCase.stl file. Sweet! Bookmarked. Thanks for sharing.

+1 for the write-up

Looks like you’ve got it all down on a note. Good job. Tailscale is half n’a halfa (as they say around these parts). Some of it is opensource, some of it is proprietary.

LOL! Dude, I absolutely, positively, must put things back in their proper place, or I’d forget everything. For instance, I went out this morning to feed the Koi in the Koi pond. I have a plastic jug that I keep the pellets in, that is kept in a drawer in the living room. When I take the jug out, I must leave the drawer pulled open to alert my dumbass that something goes back in there when I come back in. Keys absolutely must be hung on the key rack each and every time after use. Spectacles, testicles, wallet, and watch. Every day.

If I were to hazard a guess, I would say that there are more people here who do utilize AI in some form or another, than those who don’t. It’s just that they are not very vocal about it because they don’t wish to have all the drama associated with divulging such information.

this advice goes for anyone not just using ai. people will be wrong too

Truth. A lot of times I will even pose the same questions to multiple AI. It doesn’t guarantee that all three of them aren’t smoking crack, but you get a better 360 view. It’s akin to back when I worked for the man. I created an excel spreadsheet that helped us when estimating jobs. Say you had 50’ of 10"x20" duct, then a 90, a drop for a grill, necked down to 30’ of 12"x12" duct. At the bottom of the spreadsheet it would spit out numbers and prices. Now, that didn’t necessarily mean that the numbers and the prices were accurate in every way to this specific job. There are a lot of variables to consider. You have to understand the output and whether that is truly applicable to the situation at hand.

Waiting for some good news.

Reaper

Reaper is good. I use Ableton. Tho I’ve never tried it, Ardour can be selfhosted.

Tunelog looks interesting.

Edit: fixing links

Yeah, because it didntworkonmymachine. LOL Now it does tho

No wonder - that’s huge

Kick it man. Navidrome + Feishin + Substreamer (or equal) rocks. If you have duplicates, I used czkawka to de-dupe. I was able to clear a fair amount that had accumulated over the years. It can distinguish two songs of the same title, but different renditions.

Mr Frankenstein’s blog

Dr. Frankenstein?

some songs popping up might make me cry or get too pumped-up for what i am doing. ive always been easily moved by music and have to be careful, especially during work hours, if i am talking to a lot of people that day.

Totally understandable. Music is the window to the soul, and everyone’s window has a different view. By this, I guess I live in a glass house. Music is power, it moves, motivates, evokes emotion.

Other Navidrome/opensubsonic users, how do you guys use the 5 stars? for me it is

People often ask me ‘What’s your favorite song?’ or ‘Who is your favorite guitarist?’ to which I reply ‘All of them.’ I’ve been playing, creating, and listening to music since the age of 5 when my uncle showed me 3 simple cords. It lit a fire in me that is burning to this day. I do have genre specific playlists, but a lot of times I just put the whole lot on random/no repeat and enjoy Opera one minute and Heavy Metal the next, with some Blues, Jazz, Soul, R&B, Funk, Hip Hop, Rap, Rock, thrown in the mix. I truly love music and my tastes are quite expansive and eclectic. There are some songs that do have deep meaning to me tho. However, if I were to utilize the 5 star system, they would all be 5 stars. LOL Recently, I managed to have a script pick a random song from a playlist, and display it in the Linux MOTD, to remind me of songs I may not have heard in a while, when I administer the server.

I agree, basic understanding of Linux cli can be hell at times

I’ve always recommended the Linux Upskill Challenge. It takes you step by step from the cli to scripting, incrementally. It’s also a good bookmark to reference in the future.
