Reminded me of this thing I did with google assistant back when it was just a chatbot you had to deliberately access to use.

“I have passive income” is literally just “I run online scams”.

This is no different from people in places like india doing phone call scams.

Historically, there is no need to share a border with the US for them to come fuck your shit up.

Whether they leave you alone is… Not about whether you border a NATO member country.

Certainly not if you’re Russia.

National anthem plays

Shit.

Is this how I find out I’m old?

I always found it impossible to imagine ever owning anything as ornate as the furnishings my grandaprents have.

Now I see the appeal.

Environmental DNA, apparently.

Ah. That’s right. You need to use the uid as the network share doesn’t have permissions the way a local partition would. Normally it’s unneeded, as the drive, folder and file permissions are set on the drive, and those are the ones that matter once it is mounted.

Note that the uid only sets access permissions. It does not actually mount the share as you, so you’ll still need to be root to unmount it, unless you change user to users.

The option you’re looking for is users, not user.

user makes it so that any user can mount, but only the same user can unmount. Meaning, since root is mounting it on boot, root has to be the one to unmount it, too.

users allows any user to mount, and any user to unmount.

Not sure what’s on going with Pika. Who mounts the share shouldn’t matter, as the folder permissions should be the same regardless.

Do you have a uid option set?

You should even be able to hot-swap the game drive. No reboot needed.

Oh I like that

I wouldn’t mind having that on one of the walls of my apartment.

This really explains why parts of how Canonical works seem… Disfunctional.

Looking up Picard’s instructions… They recommend whipper, as others have done in the thread.

It can do the tagging for you, but it’s important to note that music CDs do not contain metadata.

All the rippers that exist, look up what the CD is online, based on stuff like number of tracks, their lengths, and order. iTunes was the ripping software everyone used back in the day, because Apple made and maintained the first extensive database that could be used to automatically tag ripped music.

Modern rippers typically rely on MusicBrainz (like Picard).

As such there is no 100% reliable auto-tagging ripper, because a disc might match more than one album, or not be in the database. Such cases will always require manual intervention.

Ah. Beans.

There should be a library type called “Home videos and photos” for that.

Huh? Like just sitting there?

Or is it running a heavy background task like trickplay generation? You can disable trickplay (scrobbling previews) if your system isn’t beefy enough to keep up with them.

I run video game servers on my system, and while stream transcodes used to interfere with them, even that was fixed my assigning JF and the games to run on separate CPU cores.

Yup. Just straight up copy the files over.

Moving files from ntfs to ext4/btrfs should work just fine.

Something you may want to double-check, is the ownership and permissions on the files, once you’re done.

They are right about the drama. Making the toy act like it’s trying to hide/run for its life makes my cat immediately interested.

I’m mostly hyped to find something that can sync media to local storage on something like a laptop, without it just being a bunch of files in a folder you play in vlc.

It also runs in a browser. I’m testing replacing the default webUI with it.

Once it’s on the app store, it’ll basically be available on everything. The same UI everywhere, but with features like offline media, unlike the default webUI.

Just found Fladder, too. It’s even better, imo.

Works on desktop operating systems, even.
