@mametsuko actually... kinda fine. Slept more properly today. (slept not so well the nights before)

Its still monday so still kinda but better than usual.

Also I guess watching some GDQ yesterday really helped my overall mood

@mikoto @joltemon Using that Dark Souls thingie for it seems fun.

@mametsuko mame really tired this morning?

@amoonrabbit @aetios I have no inkling what that is but yeah

@aetios @amoonrabbit aety at gdq next year

@puniko you can do it

@rick @Johann150 Normally you take cofe as well

@aetios happens to the best of us

@aetios all working well?

@aetios which games ya tested?

@hannah @xirin2u arms under pillow and belly sleeper gang!

@xirin2u epp is important!

@norm they just do not give an f anyway seemingly. But yeah when you work professionally it will very much depend on what you are taught say at school or at work really.

Thats why adobe and say microsoft are big on sponsoring students and stuff. You really tend to bind people to you that way.

Sadly schools focuse more on doing stuff on one software as opposed to teaching more foundations and stuff. But its understandable.

@norm production-wise its really a case of "how much of your life have you sold off to adobe yet?" Oppurtunity cost to pick a whole other software and workflow is just very huge when you are doing that stuff professionally/for a living

@rick I still have to play it.
But the speedrun might be fun

@norm Waiting for people to switch back lol since they are still dealbreakers for quite some people (mostly gamers and users of productivity stuff).

Well some fun stuff on the last day of agdq. Hades 2 might be fun to watch. As well as another "Pick my Main"-Run in pokemon emerald by adef.

(He did one for gdq express a few months ago as well)

TIL dolphin (the file manager of the KDE-Desktop) makes ripping CDs very easy lol. No other program or terminal needed.

I bought some daft-punk cds recently and stuffed the first one (Random Access Memories) into my drive and mounted it in KDE and found what you can see in the screenshot.

I was very confused. Did they ship pre-encoded stuff on that disk? Tried playing a file from the FLAC or MP3 folders. Player stalls "buffering..." it says.

I stuffed the same CD under windows. Only CDA-Files on that CD (as expected). plays with no issue in Windows media player.

Opened the disk in Thunar. Only wav-files. Play fine.

Using some internet search-engine... I came across the german Ubuntu-wiki (https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/CDs_rippen/#Konqueror-Dolphin). Which stated (english translation below):


" In Dolphin und im Konqueror besteht die Möglichkeit, die Inhalte von Audio-CDs als virtuelle Ordner anzeigen zu lassen. Hierfür gibt man folgendes in die Adresszeile ein:

audiocd:/

Derartige Ordner können wie normale Ordner einfach kopiert werden, wobei im Hintergrund der Rip- und Codierungsvorgang automatisch stattfindet. Beim Rippen wird cdparanoia und zum Codieren lame (MP3) bzw. oggenc (Ogg-Vorbis) verwendet. Die gewünschte Qualitätsstufe kann unter "Systemeinstellungen → Multimedia → Audio-CDs" angepasst werden."

English:
"In dolphin and konqueror you have the possibility to view the contents of a CD as virtual folders. To use this feature type the following into the adress bar:

audiocd:/

You can copy these folder as any other normal folder. The ripping and encoding process will happen automatically in the background. During the rip cdparanoia is used and for encoding either lame (MP3) or ogenc (Ogg-Vorbi) is used. You can configure the quality settings in [KDE] System Settings -> Mulitmedia -> Audio CDs"

nifty feature tbh. For mp3s it also automatically does the Id3-tags for you. (other than the album-art)

#linux #kde

@EpicKitty I use it aswell though in its "unstable" version, so its basically arch with some extra tools for me and a nice installer

@EpicKitty yo the manjaro ^^
