  • Quitting Spotify for Navidrome

    Jump

  • A few years ago, I set up a home-server with music and some pictures on there, and recently I noticed that my storage disk was getting full. Then I saw that the disk only had 16 GB and wondered, where the hell I got that small of a disk from.

    So, I go to plug in a bigger disk and can't even find the original disk at first. Turns out my whole storage capacity was one of these bad boys:

    And yeah, I've got about 1800 songs, clocking in at 5.8 GB, so even that tiny storage would easily be enough for a much larger collection.And I do also have them replicated on my phone, for listening on the go. (Don't even need an SD card in my case.)

  • Familienplanung: Warum Männer (keine) Kinder wollen

    Jump

  • Einerseits wollen sie sich hälftig an der Betreuung des Nachwuchses beteiligen, andererseits sehen sie sich als »Haupternährer« in der Pflicht

    Ich denke, das ist mit ein großer Punkt, warum ein Kinderwunsch erst mit einer konkreten Partnerschaft bei vielen zustande kommt. Solange man noch nichts Festes gefunden hat, sagt einem die gesellschaftlichen Erwartungshaltung aktuell nicht mehr so wirklich, ob man Geld scheffeln oder Kinder erziehen können soll. Wenn man sich nicht selbst festlegt, wirkt es erstmal, als sollte man alles können.

    Wenn sich aber dann die zweite Hälfte materialisiert, dann wird das eben plötzlich sehr konkret und man kann viel besser abschätzen, welche Stärken man selbst mitbringen muss und welche Schwächen durch dendie Partnerin abgedeckt sind.Dann kann man sich eben gemeinsam festlegen, wer die Brötchen nach Hause bringt, wer sie an die Kinder verfüttert, oder ob man die Aufgaben anders aufteilt.

    Und da man sich ja auch oftmals heißer findet, wenn man gegenseitig passende Stärken mitbringt, verwandelt sich dann oftmals ein "ich muss alles können" dahin, dass man die eigenen Stärken ausspielen kann.

  • Is there is any web comic artists which publish their comics as SVG or as transparent PNG?

  • Not what you're looking for, but perhaps also interesting, there's a comic written in CSS: https://comicss.art/

  • How much do you care about music?

    Jump

  • I'm weirdly deeply invested, like I've got decent headphones, I've composed songs before, I've played two instruments, and like someone else posted, I've also implemented my own music player program.

    But man, I struggle with feeling it as art. I don't know, if that's a case of music-maker being snobby about everyone else's music, while being too critical of their own music. Maybe my expectations are just too high.Like, I'm trying to create lyric-less music where I feel a meaning. And at times, I'm amazed that I can evoke the sense of snowfall. But at many other times, it just sounds paperthin to me, and I still haven't managed to really portray a deeper meaning.

    Maybe I'm just frustrated, because poems come more naturally to me (and yes, I am dense for not adding lyrics to my songs 🫠).

  • Yeah, sometimes you can hear a cue from what everyone else is playing, but sometimes you just sit there, counting beats in your head as well as measures on your fingers and in your head, to give yourself as much redundancy as possible for when you inevitable fuck up.

    And then the 37th measure is in 5/4 time for whatever reason, which you can't even hear either, and if you haven't counted flawlessly up to that point, it just completely throws you off.

  • The Abstract Wikipedia team has decided to rewrite the backend in Rust

    Jump

  • Apparently, Wikifunctions is a place to define e.g. mathematical formulas, so that they can be executed ad-hoc to provide insights about common questions.

    Certainly makes sense to run those functions sandboxed in WebAssembly, since the function code is user-provided.And then, yeah, I can imagine the process management making up a good amount of the complexity of their backend code...

  • Ich suche noch immer eine Fotobetrachtungssoftware, die mir zusagt, aber das ist derzeit nicht unbedingt Prio.

    Falls du eine schnöde Bildbetrachtungssoftware meinst, hast du ja bestimmt das eingebaute Gwenview schon gesehen.

    Wenn's wirklich um Fotos geht, im Sinne von "ich habe Bilder mit einer Kamera geschossen und möchte die verwalten", dann gibt's im KDE-Umfeld digiKam, wo ich bisher eigentlich nur Gutes darüber gehört habe.

  • Bin selbst auf KDE und glaube nicht, dass es eine bessere Möglichkeit gibt.

    Also an sich hat KDE eine Möglichkeit zu sagen, dass die Drittbelegung einer Taste (auf der @ und € und Co. zu finden sind) eben mit einer anderen Taste als AltGr zu erreichen ist. Aber da steht Strg+Alt nicht zur Auswahl:

    Fairerweise ist es auch etwas wild, das damit umzustellen, weil man dann keine Tastenkombinationen mit Strg+Alt mehr ausführen kann, die's eben auf Linux schon gibt...

  • Ich möchte hiermit formal rhabarba widersprechen. BSD ist nochmal eine härtere Nische als Linux und wenn man nicht einen sehr konkreten Geschmack hat, bietet das erstmal keine Vorteile und heimst einem dafür mehr Herausforderungen ein. Die Chance, dass du diesen Geschmack hast, nachdem du gerade erst von Windows weggehst, ist so ziemlich 0.

  • Why are there so many bloody roguelikes or roguelites, and what really makes a game roguish?

    Jump

  • I would argue that a substantial reason for their popularity is also just that devs have fun when developing them.

    With most other genres, you've seen the story a gazillion times, you've done each quest a thousand times etc.. It just gets boring to test the game and it becomes really difficult to gauge whether it still is fun to someone who isn't tired of it.

    Meanwhile with roguelikes, the random generation means that each run is fresh and interesting. And if you're not having fun on your trillionth run, that's a real indicator that something needs to be added or improved.

  • From what I understand, lots of servers run their own custom modded games, typically based on Minetest Game. Even just for providing an enjoyable multiplayer experience, you want mods that help with e.g. protecting areas from trolls, which aren't necessary in a singleplayer experience.

    If you run /mods in the chat of the server, it should list the mods it uses. You can try to compare that with the output of /mods in a locally running Minetest Game world.

    But it's also possible that they use custom-edited versions of mods or entirely newly-written mods, which aren't separately published. I'm pretty sure Luanti just downloads the mod files from the server onto your PC, so you can probably find them somewhere and use them in a local game.

  • Mississauga, Canada 🇨🇦 has voted to ban children from playing in the streets

  • Yeah, that is the wildest part to me. There's now adults with the ability to vote, who've had their childhood affected by this ban. And somehow, they still didn't throw it out with a huge majority.

  • Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games)

    Jump

  • Ah yeah, it does auto-save regularly, too. But I don't think, I've ever seen it crash without me doing some out-of-game fuckery. 🙃

    Well, and of course, losing progress is baked into the gameplay of a roguelike, so whether your savegame corrupts or you die yet another stupid death, you just start another run and you're right back into the action.
