Lol. Someone sent this to me. Didn't even notice the name, though.

I don't think you're supposed to host music you don't have the rights to. I think you're supposed to post your own music

butter ,

You can disable downloading if your music is copyrighted. Or a layer for copy left of someone tries to take credit.

butter ,

Why do you think it's firewalled?

Does the web gui work, and just the torrents are failing?

I assume you didn't forget to open the port on the machine. I made that mistake and it took forever to figure out

Reminder to get a slsk running on machine so the data isn't lost

Please recommend me some blogs about Linux or FOSS or similar that you follow through RSS.

Hi. I have a category Little Tech Blogs in my rss reader where I put those cool niche blogs mostly about Linux, FOSS, programming, etc... Many of them I found by articles linked in this community, so I was wondering if you guys know about more blogs like that. By little I mean it's run by one person or a small group of people,...

Linux on mobile
If that's your thing

I read on the droidian Matrix that the 8 and 8 pro were ported. You might ask there?

Also, no instructions. The droidian installer was pretty straightforward. Downgrade to the last Android 10 and run it.

butter OP ,

Something to do with firmware. I just follow the instructions

butter ,

This was by far my favorite 3DS game. It was just perfect.

butter ,

If you like Pokemon, check out cassette beasts.
Or one of hundreds of Pokemon mods.

How does ente photos compare to immich?

butter ,

I'll admit, I have no idea what the benefit of port forwarding is. I use Mullvad in a Gluten container.

butter ,

I had the OnePlus 8, and I fully agree. 13 was a huge improvement over 12, so I did eventually just move on. But only because I knew I was switching phones.

I bought a pixel.

butter OP ,

Interesting. Do you just listen on Random all the time, with maybe favorites or whatever?

butter ,

He actually said that it was a late prototype, then went on to list the things fairphone said had changed between his unit and the final product.

Then added that nothing he experienced should've been impacted by the slight changes they made.

butter OP ,

Lol. Yes.

I download most of my music, but I haven't gotten a new song in like a year and a half, so I want cheap, desktop something for the once in a while listening.

My wife has an iPhone and pays full price, this is also motivation

butter OP ,

This is what I do. But my wife has an iPhone, and can't.

I also want it on desktop

butter OP ,

Is a gift card the way to do it?

I thought I'd be doing a subscription.

So how do I get the gift cards?

butter OP ,

I want to listen at work, and paying $20 a year is worth not having to get something potentially malicious

butter OP ,

Fun story. I never really considered myself an audiophile. At first, I downloaded every song I had as an mp3 or YouTube rip.

Then I ran out of storage space and built a music server.

Then I discovered deemix. At the time completely free

I know deemix wouldn't last. I redownloaded every song I had as flac, knowing I can't Begin to take advantage of it. Storage is cheap and I have unlimited data.

So a dap is in my future. Probably in my car. And after some research

butter OP ,

You're the best. Only one to actually answer my question.

I'll be doing this tonight. Thank you so much

butter ,

I don't disagree?

They're going to try what they're going to try. This won't sway me, but it might sway someone. In which case, that user is subsidizing me

butter ,

AI is broad enough that it does include those features.

But it’s probably referring to machine learning.

Sites for downloading high quality music files

I am making a script that can download high quality music files, currently from free-mp3-download.net and slavart.gamesdrive.net. Are there any others? I could look into torrenting things automatically and maybe looking into Lidarr? Not 100% on how that works but any ideas on what else I could add or links to other places I can...

butter ,

I use Slskd

Runs as a web app, so I can remotely start downloads and have them drop into my music server

butter ,

Google got jealous of iMessage and remade iMessage, but Android with the promise of making it more open.

They haven’t followed through on ‘more open’ until just now.

Rcs officially works on 2 apps. iMessage still has just 1.

But hopefully Rcs will actually become open in the future. Allowing anyone to make an Rcs app, like they can with SMS

butter ,

The point is getting adoption. Especially in the US, where people actually use iPhone, no one wants to download a second app because iMessage is ‘good enough’ 99% of the time.

I used to love Bryant Gardener when he was The Linux gamer.

But since the announcement of the steam deck, his view has narrowed far too much. He hasn’t made a non deck video in like a year.

butter ,

Another day, another chat service.

butter ,

I went Debian without a Desktop for my server. I later installed a desktop for the occasion that I need it. But mostly, I use SSH

butter ,

Neat! This will be the first mainstream use for RISC V.

butter ,

What I’m made of - Crush 40. Unironically love all of the GameCube era sonic crush 40 music.

butter ,

Why would telegram be the solution? Centralized, not particularly private, not open to other standards.

butter ,

I believe it was this tool that I used after I bought an app to them install the app on a phone that didn’t have Google Play. I turned an installed app into an APK and copied it to another phone.

butter ,

Those are some… odd specs.

1TB NVME, OLED with an Intel N CPU?

butter ,

You could have a decent experience. Take away the NVME, even with an m.2 ssd, and the oled and bring that price down into the 400-600 range.

Hell, put an arm CPU and keep those other specs and stay in that range

butter ,

They won’t open the api. Anyone else who tries to make one would be starting from scratch. Including with a server

butter ,

I know right. What’s Spotify’s goal with this move

butter ,

Skip Lidarr for your initial move. Use Deemix. You can find links to premium ARLs on the wiki or with a google search (or DM me).

Deemix has an option to sign in with your Spotify account and download playlists. There’s a weird song count limit, and you may have to manually hit some tracks. But this is the way.

You can also do Flac with this setup. You don’t necessarily need it, but if you’re making the move, I recommend it. Since Flac is lossless, there’s never going to be an upgrade.

butter ,

Also, if you’re up for the self-hosted life, what comes next is a music server. If you have good access to WiFi or unlimited data, this eliminates storage as a bottle neck. I recommend Navidrome. But something like Jellyfin or Plex can do Movies and TV, if you want a 1 size fits all.

If you’re not, look into Syncthing. You chose a folder on your computer and one on your phone and this app keeps them in sync. After that, my favorite player was GoneMad. It’s offline, with real support for music tags. This allowed song ratings and real smart playlists

butter ,

So someone can ignore the ads, ignore not being able to chose a song, and ignore no download. But having to open musixmatch in a separate app is the straw that broke the camels back

Looking for obscure, older television

I know it’s against the rules to request links to specific titles, but I assume it’s okay to ask generally. (Still, let me know if this should be taken down.) I’m looking for sources of an obscure cryptid-hunting show from the 2000s. It’s like popcorn to me, I just can’t help watching it....

butter ,

What’s it called

butter ,

It can be argued that the libreoffice dude is providing a service. If you were deeply invested in the windows ecosystem, with most of your apps coming from the store and you also have like 20 windows computers, buying it for $10 is totally worth it.

1 click install and auto updates being the advantage. Not to mention a centralized way to make sure all your machines are running the same version.

It’s not like it’s a subscription or per machine license.

butter ,

This is entirely on the companies. There’s no technical reason or requirement for this happening.

Fdroid works great and is the most likely thing to be adopted, in my opinion. It’s easy enough for anyone to spin up their own fdroid server and distribute their own app.

If you’re wanting to use a new store, you’re going to have to wade through the growing pains of adoption. It’s just a fact of life.
