IMO, the best thing about YAML is the referencing. It’s super easy to reuse an object multiple times. Gives that same kind of parten child struct ability that programming languages have. Sure XML can do it, but it’s not in every parser. cough python built in parser cough But then YAML is also not a built in parser and doing DOM in things other than XML feels odd.

I did it purely so I could fully back up my server VM and move it to new hardware when I wanted to upgrade. I just have to install Proxmox, attach the NAS, and pull the VM backup. And just like that everything is back to running just as it was before the upgrade! Now just faster and more energy efficient!

Wait, Lidarr also has broken metadata search?

Lidarr does an alright job of it.

I prefer dockge for putting all of my compositions in one place.

Here I am still using requirements.txt and the built in venv. Sure poetry looks cool. I just don’t have it everywhere. Now I just have to wait 5 years before I can reliably use a pylock.toml. Progress!

Proxmox can be a bit of a bear to setup. The documentation is not very approachable for new users. It uses a lot of terms without definition which is a deadly sin of technical writing IMO. Guides for getting an Ubuntu Server VM setup vary wildly and often recommend outdated settings.

I’m totally on board with using it though. It eliminates the need to start from scratch when migrating to newer hardware.

Set up your favorite Linux server distro and then go ham on setting up docker (dockge is a great tool to introduce compose).

Reading the GitHub page for pythonz makes it seem a little easier to get into than pyenv. I think that might just be documentation learning curve though. Have you tried both?

I was actually on the fence between that one and the non f for a lower power server build. Something that would finally put my 7700k to rest.

I fully agree with the prioritization of meeting basic needs before luxury. The detail I would like see happen is making sure that people have a chance to see more than their own area at some point in their lives. See how other people live for a time. I do think there can be better connections for humanity when we can see the lives of others.

I took a trip with some college buddies. We went on a cruise and stopped in Nassau and some of them had some real shock seeing a city with not as much wealth. The just hadn’t considered that clean streets, sidewalks, and traffic lights didn’t exist everywhere.

Audiobookshelf is self-hosted and has an Android app. Playback is synced between everything.

I’m using PodcastRepublic on Android right now. It does a fantastic job of organizing my daily playlist for exactly what order I prefer to listen to episodes. The down side is that there is no easy way to translate this nice playlist stuff to the browser website. The state of the website is “mostly functional” and plays audio. Not much else. There is no sync to the Android app.

What I am going to try next is Audiobookshelf with a python script on their API to get the same playlist sorting features. I’ve got the architecture written out, but haven’t gotten the time to write the code.

Reading into gpodder here is making want to give that a try, but the only website listed on this table doesn’t say it syncs playback progress.

So what I’m looking for is something this can sort playlists like PodcastRepublic and sync playback progress like PocketCasts. AFAIK that combo doesn’t exist right now.

Usually you would go the other way around. Merge changes into git and then distribute from there.

Really? I find python imports to work very similar to cpp in practice.

The recent updates are working really well! Congratulations on the rewrite!
