I don’t remember anything about the cp stuff but there is a very interesting Behind the Bastards podcast about epstein and many of his evils beyond child sex trafficking. Talks about Kotick a lot https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-behind-the-bastards-29236323/

I mean its a spectrum and many private trackers are much further down the trust side than the pirate bay

Yeah, I tried it with another user that had explicit access to both libraries and still couldn’t get it to work. If I create a playlist and add songs from the child library I cannot see those songs when the parent library is enabled, and vice versa. Of course when both libraries are enabled I can see the songs.

Thanks so much for the thoughtful response. So m3u playlists actually do work, but they show up as duplicates in the playlist sidebar and one is populated and one isn’t. The playlists I’m most interested in are the internal (db) playlists. As the admin, my user account should have access to both libraries. Maybe I should test with another user account.

move the song files to the new library

So, if my core music files are in dir /music/parent you’re suggesting that I mv them over to /music/child?

I tried hardlinks earlier, and while they showed up in the child library and worked properly the playlists still didn’t work. I’ll keep messing around and update this post if I figure anything out. Thanks!

Truly disturbing

Funny how they skip the longest period of cultural organization of homo sapien sapien (pre-agriculture, 100,000+ years worth) and go straight to single cell organisms

Y’know, this would make a lot of sense. I can try it! It’s puzzling though that argus wouldn’t have this in their documentation though (I’ve looked)

Cool, thanks for the rec! Is there an easy way to view release notes? For cupdate and cup i had to open a new tab and go to the release page myself to see if there were breaking changes or whatever. This became annoying with many services

Yeah it does look cool. Thanks for the comment i would have missed it. Not sure if i have the expertise to properly interpret a network map like that, but would be fun to spin up

Have you tried Citations Needed? Found them recently and they provide succinct marxist media analysis and I really like them

I don’t think they’ve lost the plot. They’re just the flesh puppets for a superorganism whose plot is orthogonal to human values

“We” is carrying a lot of weight here. I sure as shit wouldn’t put a misanthrope on forbes. Would you? I think only other misanthropes do that

If you randomly press all those buttons immediately around the screen, one usually mutes it. I do this every time, for myself and the next person to come through

Cool, thanks for the info!

no court ever found parkmobile liable for anything

I got tripped up on this. And assumed that it’s actually just a promotion or scam? Why did they send it to me if the court didn’t make them?

Our leaders are literally aliens. I mean the people are flesh and blood human but they represent and work on behalf of an emergent entity, new to this earth, whose values and priorities often run contrary to those of humans and the rest of the biosphere

This is like landlords giving their tenants the birthright of ‘housing’

I think the top 2 comments i see ascribing this to ‘hate’ and ‘cruelty’ are missing the point. This literally is better for the capitalists’ bottom line. This can be entirely attributed to profit. The threat of violence (homelessness, etc) that the working class is kept precipitously close to powers this whole machine. If everybody was housed the threat of poverty would have less material consequence. Cruelty is not the point, in this case. Neither hate. Simply profit. Which in many ways is much more cold and insidious

Is it illegal to backup my photos to the NAS in my house? I’m not even attempting to access banned services

I’m enthusiastic about opportunities for pan-leftist collaboration in the face of outright fascism across western states. I think a trial period is sensible. This may even benefit folks that are against federation with ml because this will generate more evidence to support defederation if they deserve it. I feel like this re-evaluation is warranted given the (i expect) influx of lemm.ee users to dbzer0
