  • I have the number off because the number gets really distracting to me. If I need to know the number I’ll pull down the control center or whatever it’s called. It’s rare that the actual number is required though. You’ll know when it’s under half, and when it hits 20.

    Looking at the bar right now for example I can tell that it’s gone past its 80% charging limit for whatever reason.


  • I’m personally going with elrc where available, otherwise lrc.

    The E in ELRC stands for enhanced. It has karaoke-style granularity, if that’s something you care for, and can find.

    Navidrome has supported lyrics for a while now, but the web client only supports embedded ones. Checked my instance and that still seems to be the case as most of my songs have lyrics as standalone files, but the client insists that there aren’t any lyrics.

    With the update I’ve added this Navidrome lyrics plugin, but I’ve not really tested it yet. I’ve been using lrcget to locate and add lyrics before this update.

    Lyrics work fine in other clients. On my phone I’ve been experimenting with NaviBeat, otherwise I’ve been using Amperfy.

    On desktop I’ve been using Nocturne, (via flathub), but I think based on how long lyrics take to load in that, that it fetches the lyrics from somewhere other than Navidrome.





  • Isn’t that mostly in the line of intrusive thoughts, though? Like having a little voice in your head that goes “damn girl u hot today” sounds nice, but when you have impulses like, “aww look, my dog is sleeping, I SHOULD FUCKING CHOKE HIM OUT AND DUMP HIM OUT THE WINDOW” that’s… less welcome.

    The voices depicted in stories are never pleasant and that’s why people get distressed over them.

    I’ve a friend who lives with hallucinations. It’s not so much that they struggle telling what’s a hallucination and what’s reality apart, it’s more that they get in the way. They know that the forest that’s replaced their hallway and has panicked animals running through it isn’t real, but that doesn’t make it less stressful.




  • Had to boot my work Windows laptop a while ago, because the software I have to work on uses some stupid Windows sign in thing, and I wasn’t fast enough getting Kerberos working before everyone went on vacation.

    I’d forgotten that every single piece of software handles its own updates, and to install anything you have to like, go around to different places and download it. It’s crazy.

    Nevermind the file manager making a dozen HTTP requests every time you launch it.


  • You just reminded me.

    At one point I had Windows take up two drives, one for boot and one for games. However, I only ever really used it for this one piece of software that I couldn’t get working on Linux, so I nuked it and reinstalled Windows on the smallest drive I have, just for that software.

    Two weeks later I got the software working on Linux, and I completely forgot I even have a Windows partition up until now. It’s been months.

    I can relate to this so hard. I’ve no idea how many books I read as a kid, but often several per week. I still love reading, obviously, it’s just that I don’t dedicate as much time to do it anymore. Been trying to pick the habit back up though.

    One of the quirks I developed as a result of my reading habits, is that I’d use very dated terms when speaking my native tongue. I have so many early-1900s insults in my head, it’s almost unfortunate I never get to use them.



  • This in my experience is the hallmark of a vibe coded project. Individual pieces of code can be perfectly fine, but when you zoom out into an overall structure things get weird. Design patterns changing, same/similar problems solved in different, sometimes conflicting ways.

    Been working on a project like that at work. Initially I enjoyed the change of pace, but as I realised that there’s no coherence at all in the project structure my joy turned into frustration.

    To me, the most frustrating thing is that you can’t ask someone why something is done in a particular way, because no decision was ever made because no one was there to make a decision. Things just happened.
