You’re thinking of MusicBrainz Picard, the music file tagging software that is powered by MusicBrainz, a music metadata encyclopedia. ListenBrainz is a separate project, though it also makes use of the MusicBrainz data.

I never used Plex so I wouldn’t be able to help you but the page below has 2 Plex-related links.

As a psychiatric nurse, during my work day I watch my screen for about 1 out of 8 hours. When I come home I like to spend some time behind the screen. I sometimes wonder if it is necessary that so many people work behind screens. Shouldn’t we get more people to work as nurses, teachers but also craftsman, handyman, etc. This may sound as a naive and romantic thought, and I’m sure a lot of the work behind screens is extremely useful and efficient. But still I wonder if we haven’t somehow lost focus of what’s important. Like we’ve started to think that we can solve everything behind the computer, while simultaneously things are falling apart, people are lonely and people in need don’t get help.

If you recognize it for what it is, why are you on that right-wing cesspool of an app?

Could someone smarter than me explain Matrix to me? In particular,

• What would be the utility for someone, who cares about privacy and currently uses Signal and email for communication?
• What advantage would it give me over other services?
• Is Matrix anything good already, or is it something with potential that’s still fully in development?
• How tech savvy does one need to be to use Matrix?

I’ve been using Fennec. Any one got advise on what would be the best alternative? And please explain why.

Now could you explain it like I’m 104?

shorts are not my cup of tea. Pretty sure shorts have a negative impact on peoples attention span. I’d still be happy to see people watch their shorts on the Fediverse rather than at tiktok/yt. Of course, but still…

I followed in 2021. What remains is that I use YouTube quite a lot (even though it’s through piped or yt-dlp).

Entomology is the scientific study of insects, a branch of zoology. source: Wikipedia

Phonetic transcription exists for a reason. The comments here are full of “this is pronounced as this”. Which isn’t very helpful.

Sabotage Wikipedia, Ddos the Internet Archive. Makes you wonder if in the future we’re going to forget our past. Will actual history be obscured in a sea of alternative histories unrecognizably presented as the same thing. Maybe we need to keep some books laying around in archives just to be sure.

We still have it, and it’s quite nice.

But a fair point nonetheless.

This article is from 2015. By then it’s been 10 years since the company started, and he already left it. In the article he explains that still only 25% of the cacao used in Tony’s Chocolonely is guaranteed slave-free, let alone that they’ve had any significant impact on the industry at large. He says the situation of slave labor in cacao industry has only worsened. Tony’s has changed the message on their product “100% slave free” (which was false advertising) to something like “working together towards slave-free chocolate”, which he concludes to be meaningless marketing. It’s rather bizarre that such a message is allowed on a product that contains cacao from slave-labor…

Some info, that’s interesting and helps balance this blatant advertisement. Tony’s was started by Dutch television maker Teun van der Keuken. He worked on a program that exposes products for their production methods and false marketing and so on. They stumbled onto the slavery that’s part of the cacao industry. He asked to be arrested for eating chocolate, and in doing so enabling slave labor, but he wasn’t. He started out Tony’s Chocolonely to attempt to change the chocolate industry. He’s not part of the company anymore. He has concluded the mission has failed, and is very critical of his former company, saying they’ve lost sight of the aim: slave-free chocolate.

That’s a lot of words for saying: focus on buying houses, and keep them so no one else can buy these houses.

Also it’s not at all obvious that you’ll accomplish it before others get houses/hotels.

Where ever you listen to your music, in most cases you can hook it up with ListenBrainz, to save your listening data on a FOSS alternative for Last.fm. And to get all sorts of beneficial features, like for instance recommendations that are truly independent, and getting updates on new releases.

good luck finding one with a decent resolution AND price.

That raises the question: is there one that has decent resolution and privacy, but is expensive? Those of us who can afford it should surely go for the privacy friendly option regardless of price. Boycotting the surveillance society that’s in full development is worth a lot.
