I use puddletag to bulk-change i.e. the album name or album artist. After tagging I use it to change the filename, done.

I never heard of it. Is it’s decentralised setup it’s unique feature that makes it different from Signal? How uses this messenger and with whom for what?
Edit: This is not meant to sound harsh, I’m curious

Slightly provocative take: Let it go, it doesn’t matter. The desire to hoard data is, like hoarding money, understandable but unnecessary. What do you do with all this media. You time on this planet is finite.

Efficiency is the exact opposite of resilience, because efficiency removes redundancy and buffers.

I like flac and I understand the human desire to get the best quality of anything. You can’t tell the difference between 25mb flac and 2,5 mb 160 kbps opus though.

I went back from ShepherdTTS to eSpeak because I liked the robot woman better. She’s easy to understand, takes up 5 mb on my phone and it’s a fun conversation starter.

Same here. I have KeePass database set to read only by default on my phone. This minimizes the risk of conflict and I add new passwords on my desktop most of the time.

Yeah, agreed. Life wants to live. Pain and fear is something animals feel so they can get away from potential harm. If you’re immobile like a plant, it doesn’t make sense to feel pain. Plus you don’t have a brain nor a central nervous system. 70% of global crops are fed to animals. Stop eating animals and grow forests there, to make our planet healthier.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Plants have feelings too
No, they do not. There is no serious study to suggest that they do. Plants do not have a brain or central nervous system. At most, they respond to stimuli. If you really care that much about the welfare of plants, you should go vegan, since many more plants “die” for animal feeding.
Do you feel bad while mowing your lawn? And would you rather rescue a potted plant than a dog from a burning house? Is docking pig tails the same as branch trimming to you? Question upon question… - Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I agree (and the downvote wasn’t me), this is talking from a privileged position. My thoughts on downsizing and No, thank you still apply though.

Not sure if this is good advice. by joining the gamble, you’re (micro-)fueling the global suicide machine that’s causing all this. Someone has to earn the money that you make, and it’s usually either by destruction, exploitation or scamming.
I try to break free from all this stuff by downsizing. Second hand clothes, Repair Café, holidays at youth hostels like 40 km from my home, meeting/making local friends and very important: raising your kids to not be spoiled, entitled, materialistic cunts. That’s the power of No, thank you.
It’s so calming to switch to a lower gear and find happiness in baking a cake from handpicked apples than another TV and holiday in Asia. - Comment on Black widow life 2 months ago:

I already played Selaco and liked it very much. It looks phenomenal, all the particles and the mood lights, it’s such a beautiful chassis. Only the enemies are real bullet sponges, that’s not to my taste. I’d rather have shorter combats or more enemies than sinking clip after clip in one simple enemy. But it’s just a personal preference, go play it!

Hey, just in case people don’t know: There is a very lively community still playing Doom II. There are incredible mods and maps, from minor addons to gamechanging mechanics. I love Brutal Doom for it’s modern shooter feel and the pixel-gore. But there is loads of other stuff, years of fun!

We will not solve it, it’s way too late. Still, every 0.01°C additional warming counts. People not born yet will suffer more from everything we don’t do now. So, rolling on your back and giving up is not helping at all. Going vegan is a great easy first step to make a difference. Blow up pipelines after that. :)

I’d love text information like this to be copy pasted for a couple of bytes instead of sharing screenshots of text like some filthy boomer. - Comment on Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar? 3 months ago:

I was fiddeling with my Raspberry Pi 4 but decided to buy a refurbiahed Dell Wyse Thin Cient 5070. It cost like 70€, I put DietPi on it because I love it, plugged an external drive and I’m very happy with the experience.
