I received an invitation to move the posts over to piefed.social. Unless someone feels like that's a bad idea, that will happen. If anyone knows how to reach the mods, that seems like a good idea. @craftyindividual

Thanks so much to everyone who made this a great place to share beauty for the last couple of years.

The Schlörwagen (nicknamed "Göttingen Egg" or "Pillbug") was a prototype aerodynamic rear-engine passenger vehicle developed by Karl Schlör (1911–1997) and presented to the public at the 1939 Berlin Auto Show. It never went into production, and the sole prototype has not survived.

The Theme Building is a structure at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), considered an architectural example of the Space Age design style. Influenced by "Populuxe" architecture, it is an example of the Mid-century modern design movement, later to become known as "Googie". In 1993, the city designated the exterior and interior of the Theme Building as a historic-cultural monument.

Hey hey, I have been using Sound Juicer on my Ubuntu 24 / KDE 5 PC and it works, but it doesn't handle the tags for my MP3 files very nicely. I've also used abcde, at the terminal, and that can be better but it takes a lot finessing at the CLI to get the result I want.

Is there a better CD ripper application that will run on Ubuntu and can make setting the MP3 tags dead simple?

Thanks for any ideas!

Edit: Fixed a typo

ETA: Asunder looks good, does what I need and works well on my PC. Thanks for everyone's ideas and help!
