Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
Just another person recommending Musicbrainz Picard.
I had about 600 sketchy music files. I had started using Kodi and I wanted my music library to look nice. So I cleaned up all the art and metatags. It was a bit of an undertaking. I actually added a few of my albums to their database. I'm happy with the result. MBP is a really cool project.
Also consider backing up to the cloud when you can. Never know when a rainy day will come by, or ICE for that matter.
"the cloud" is not a legitimate backup solution, and you're doing people a disservice by advertising it as such. The majority of service providers are just as untrustworthy as spotify.
I've been sorting my MP3 files since 2003. It's a Sisyphian task. Every few years I'm like "ok, let's sort those songs with the new, improved sorting method I just came up with" and after a few hours or days of intense sorting I just quit and let them be.
Maybe this will be the year I finally sort them out! 🤣
Plexamp is my favorite music player. I miss it when trying out services. It’s so buttery smooth and quick.
Picard can identify them by the acoustic ID similar to Shazam.
Might be worth it to sort and categorize them with something like lidarr (once it works again)
I just use spotDL to download albums directly from spotify/YouTube. I set it to download directly into the jellyfin music folder in a folder with the album name. This way I just paste the album Spotify link on spotDL and it's done. The album is available with the metadata as soon as jellyfin rescans the folder.
I have 4630 MP3s on my phone. Most of it is organized well enough. An album per folder. Lots of them are even tagged correctly. The folder on my PC that is holding probably 3X that is a horrible mess.
