        ruaok: would it be hard to make the VM compatible with other VM software? :)
      • ruaok
        very, methinks.
      • hibiscuskazenek1 has quit
      • the ova format is supposed to make it compatible.
      • but that never really works.
      • SothoTalKer
        oh, its like PDF then.
      • the "portable document format"
      • maybe i should invest 100€ into a SSD
      • Kxze
        You absolutely should
      • an SSD was the best purchase I ever made
      • SothoTalKer
        did you migrate your OS or did you set it up from scratch?
      • Kxze
        I migrated at first but that gave me a few headaches so I did a fresh install and it was like night and day lol
      • my favorite thing about it is how on Windows all searches are instant, so I can just press win key + spot + enter and that opens Spotify instantly
      • SothoTalKer
        mhm :)
      • copying speed 8MB/s
      • takes me 1:30h to copy that damn ova XD
      • Kxze
        Jeez
      • SothoTalKer
        i guess downloading it would be faster :D

        samj1912: hi
      • Kxze
        Is anyone already working on a VLC plugin?
      • ruaok
        not that I know of.
      • samj1912
        antlarr: my gsoc project got done :D https://blog.musicbrainz.org/2017/08/31/500-com...
      • if you are interested ^ :D
      • iliekcomputers
        Kxze: no, I'm working on getting our last.fm compatible api to work with LB, but a plugin dedicated to LB is something much better.
      • SothoTalKer
        how long is the gsoc? already done?
      • Kxze
        I see. I'm taking a look at that but I've never worked with VLC plugins before, so I'm not sure how feasible that'd be
      • ZaphodBeeblebrox
        vlc and qoud libeet lb combat woudl be asome sauce
      • ಠ_ಠ my own typing
      • ruaok
        I think VLC can scrobble. should be possible then.
      • ZaphodBeeblebrox
        hell already scrobbling with vlc so yes
      • iliekcomputers
        Vlc uses v1.2 of the audioscrobbler api
      • Kxze
        NotLikeThis
      • iliekcomputers
        Which LB doesn't support yet.
      • antlarr
        samj1912: wow, congratulations!
      • ruaok
        that 1.2 api endpoint is becoming more important by the minute, I see.
      • SothoTalKer
        quod libet can scrobble, too
      • ZaphodBeeblebrox
        just something a non-coder like myself can just install and use and it works!
      • hibiscuskazeneko joined the channel
      • iliekcomputers
        ruaok: almost done :D
      • Hopefully today
      • samj1912
        antlarr: thanks :D
      • you should try out picard 2.0 dev sometime
      • ZaphodBeeblebrox
        SothoTalKer: it can, but i have no idea how to make it work :D
      • ruaok
        \ø/
      • antlarr
        samj1912: you really did work A LOT. I hope your mentor let you pass the evaluations ;-)
      • samj1912: I will
      • ruaok
        right. time to hit the annual FAIL ALL button again. :D
      • iliekcomputers
        :D
      • SothoTalKer
        remember, not getting an A counts as failed.
      • ZaphodBeeblebrox
        hmm so the mb "work" tag that picard sets, isn't visible for mp3 files *either* in quod libet

        Oh yeah, when looking into Android support for LB, I realized there's no OAuth2 yet. Is this something being considered? Because SLS currently supports LB, but you have to manually input your user token and that's awful to do on a phone
      • hibiscuskazeneko has quit
      • Freso
        Kxze: MusicBrainz.org has/uses OAuth2. I'm sure a PR for LB would be accepted. :)
      • Kxze
        I was trying to avoid messing with Python but I guess I have no choice now :p
      • ruaok
        down the rabbit hole into the snake pit!
      • Kxze
        I need to step out of my Node comfort zone anyways, this'll be fun

      • I did support, including (but not limited to) making zas do support for me.
      • I was editing a fair amount still, but I've decided to limit my voting + editing time to max. 5h per day, in order to have some sort of a life at the same time, so I edited a bit less than before!
      • Finally, I've given a proposal for the "levels in the structure of works" issue that I had been slacking on because of too much time spent editing: https://community.metabrainz.org/t/levels-in-th... - comments appreciated!
      • This week I'm in Sweden for the first residential period of my just-started master (http://www.hb.se/en/International-student/Progr...) - hopefully that will eventually result in interesting ideas for ways to improve MusicBrainz and/or get it more connected with library-related stuff. That also means I'm not online all the
      • time though, so if you need something from me, it might take longer than usual! :)

      • I went to Sweden last week, and I'm still in Sweden right now.
      • I spent some time helping our GSoC student get their "final reports" published as blog posts on our blog.
      • ZaphodBeeblebrox
        tjenare!
      • Freso
        I upgraded the Discourse install.
      • I spent some time looking at reported editors.
      • I managed to finally catch up on all the meeting notes.
      • And I spent a bunch of time on IRC and on the forums.
      • I think that sums it up.
      • zas: Go!

        I fixed ftp.eu .. it ended to be some abusers causing all allowed connections to be used, i took required measures to solve it and prevent it
      • i did upgrades on all servers
      • i removed the IP blacklist for QNAP devices: queries are now filtered at nginx level
      • Freso
        (Still up: bitmap, ruaok, Quesito, yvanzo, samj1912, psolanki, ListMyCDs, iliekcomputers, ferbncode, Leo_Verto; maybe up (please confirm): alastairp, LordSputnik, Leftmost; anyone else?)
      • zas
        but it has a drawback: connect time is degraded for all connections, because of the high number of connections nginx gets now. I'll prolly restore IP blacklist at some point
      • QNAP devices = 1500 req/s
      • legit traffic = 500 req/s
