I work at a small grocery store and I’m astounded by how often people shit in our public bathroom. Our toilet is extemely popular, and as such is always ripe with the robust smell of shit. It’s clear that many of these customers have a routine.

The way it’s framed, you would assume that she stabbed him for sleeping with other women (cheating) but the real reason is because he keeps beating her at Mario Kart and she thinks he’s not playing fair (cheating).

Did having the joke explained to you make it funny for you?

It doesn’t help that the donation links still are just for Mastodon world, with no clear way to even find the donation links from Lemmy world. They put out a posting for sysadmins with part time hours for free… As a sysadmin I definitely don’t have time for that shit. Maybe they could make the donation links more obvious and try to hire actual staff if they need help.

lemann ,

Both sites are sharing the same infra IIRC, hence the donation links pointing elsewhere

antik ,
@antik@lemmy.world avatar

They are different servers in the same datacenter and there is overlap in the teams.

lemann ,

Thanks for the clarification 👌

@antik@lemmy.world avatar

Well you say that but we have plenty of sysadmins who applied and most of us are it professionals already doing this as a hobby project. I think we tackled that in our most recent announcement. If that is not for you that is fine.

The donations to mastodon.world are shared with those to lemmy.world. LW admin Ruud has been very open in his near-monthly blogs: blog.mastodon.world

These blog posts are also announced on Lemmy World. I think it is all pretty clear.

Vash63 ,

It took me way too much searching to find that. Think about it as a user looking for a donation link, the website’s drop down has a link to donate to Lemmy’s codebase but nothing clear for Lemmy world.

Canadian here, I am fluent in English, French and Russian. Currently learning Spanish as well. If I can do it at 15y, you can too. Edit: Uyuu pointed out that its actually easier when you are young and I agree.

Good luck with that!

If you wanna practice Spanish, I’m Italian with fluent Spanish and a decent English (I think so 🤪)

Yeah its easier when you are young

I had no patients or focus to do it when I was younger. I actually learned more Japanese and Chinese in the past 3 years, than I had ever done in childhood or university.

NoGodsNoMasters ,

Pretty sure I can’t since I’m no longer younger than 15

In all seriousness though I’m curious how you’ve been finding Spanish, just if it kinda fits with my experience where, coming from French, it seemed overall quite easy to learn and improve (especially on the comprehension side of things.

jvrava9 ,
@jvrava9@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Its not that bad. I joined a school with spanish classes this year and the others had 2y more of knowledge on me as I did not learn Spanish at my previous school, but I still managed to pull off a year average of 82% without studying. If you know french, then its a lot easier to learn Spanish as the verb and sentence structure is similar, not speaking about the amount of words that are the same in both languages. Knowing Russian helps as well as it also has some similarities. If Inhad a tip to give, it would be to not be shy trying to speak as there aure no negative and the positives are major. If you mispronounced a word, someone will just correct you and you will likely not repeat the same mistake again instead of you being shy to say something wrong.

There is rock hard consistency!

I still use mp3s today (no spotify or similar bullshit) and stick to the name convention: [ARTIST_NAME]-[SONG_NAME].mp3

Mine are always [artist]/[album]/[tracknumber]-[title]

I used to use Ogg, but I’m switching to Opus because it’s a superior format.

utopify_org ,
@utopify_org@lemmy.ml avatar

No, I think those are the Windows people who put / in the file names, because back then Windows wasn’t really restrictive about stupid file names. At least I think it isn’t possible anymore, but can’t confirm, because I don’t use Windows for around 15 years.

Long filename (LFN) Limits

The long filename system allows a maximum length of 255 UCS-2 characters including spaces and non-alphanumeric characters (excluding the following characters, which have special meaning within the COMMAND.COM command interpreter of the operating system kernel: / : * ? " < > |).

Edit: Markdown Code format issue?

I’ve used Spotify since about 2012, and have been considering setting up some *arr instances at some point in the future to remedy that. Music discovery is just so much easier on something like Spotify though.

utopify_org ,

*arr instances What is an *arr instance?

I still discover music the old way. I listen to it at a friends place or in the radio :D

Sonarr, Radarr, and related projects for, uh. Sailing the high seas. :-)

user224 ,

Mine is Artist name - Song name [(Version)] (Year)[(Bitrate)]

Version is optional. It’s stuff like Radio edit, remastered, extended, etc.
Bitrate is optional as I switched to FLAC and rarely need to use MP3.
The worst one I have is something from Beatles in 32kbps HE-AAC at 22.5kHz SR with name written in Chinese. It is one of the oldest files I have.

utopify_org ,
@utopify_org@lemmy.ml avatar

I find it a little bit weird to put meta data in the file name. Meta data is already there and you can see it on your computer with the tool exiftool (if you’re on a Linux system).

But I think you’re not on a Linux system, because you would avoid white spaces then :D

user224 ,

Welp, not if you used to rip from YouTube. And the files ripped from Deezer have wrong year most of the time anyway because they used it for file creation date.

And when my music touches my computer it’s only because I am backing it up (as I should be doing). The only correct information is on CD rip of “The very best of Louis Armstrong” because I put that in myself using Kid3.

utopify_org ,
@utopify_org@lemmy.ml avatar

Why should youtube media not have meta data? As soon media data was created, it automatically has meta data. If you create a music file, you get meta data like length, audio bitrate, sample rate, etc.

But okay, you might mean data, which is not related to the file and can be added as meta data.

That shit had a comeback the last couple of years, it feels really premium, until it doesn’t.

Just a coincidence

user224 ,

This is soft touch plastic. It is a plastic with rubberized coating which unfortunately starts to melt after some time. When that happens, you can just remove the coating with isopropyl alcohol and paper towel to get just regular shiny plastic.
