  • Nice, I think the world’s a little better when we can share our musical tastes. It’s definitely some work to get all that music organized, but I’ve been messing around with scripting with python and that can do a lot of the monotonous stuff like fixing filenames and what not.

    And plus you never know, you’ll see songs being uploaded from your library and might think, “who the heck downloaded that?”, as I have many times. Every time I see unique music being downloaded, I feel a little better knowing eclectic music taste is still alive and well haha


  • Ahh, my bollywood folder is fairly small right now, under 20 tracks. I tend to fill my library either with albums I’m curious about, or with songs I’ve heard and really want to replay for the future.

    Once in a while, you can find people who have some decent collections, but since not everyone logs on at once, it’s sometimes a game of cat and mouse. If I can’t find it on the soulseek network, I’ll grab stuff from places like doubledouble, usually for things that are very new.





  • I had a friend tell me, a linux veteran, that I should “try linux mint, it’s a great experience out of the box”, meanwhile I’m running Nobara + arch linux in a dual boot configuration, and have debian running on a headless server.

    The older you get, the less you want the headache, but man, I’m not old yet, I still like tinkering here and there. I hate when things break, but with experience you learn how to tinker safely, and still can have fun without staring at black screens due to some driver misconfiguration.


  • The drama is so dumb. People who genuinely enjoy their OS and setup don’t participate in such pointless conflicts. I might have gone all in on linux since 2019, but I was 100% a windows lover for most of my life.

    Just like nature, and touching grass, the world is full of beauty and diversity, so too is the world of technology diverse with solutions, programming languages, libraries, fantastic well-documented software, innovations, and hard-work. I see this pointless squabbling and just see just another conflict not born of the love for technology.
