forgot there were other projects

it doesn't look like we support that out of the box.

outsidecontext: zas: do you know if taggerscript can do that?

yeah, the docs didnt mention anything about it and i didnt see a plugin

but i wasnt sure, there couldve been some extra config in a file or something that isnt as well documented

well, there is a whole tagging language built in called taggerscript. it might be able to do that, but I am not certain.

oh alright. Ill look into that when i have time

do tell, how did you come to spell your nick like that?

idk, its an old alias ive had on freenode for ages, and i used to have a penchant for swapping numbers for letters

ruaok: I got BrainzPlayer to work on FF.

was never any intent behind it, i just love the moon

Didn't have to do anything to get the page loaded from OpenPOst, but did have to enable autoplay to be able to use the player

m00n: random coincidence then. that spelling has many many years of good memories for me.

Mr_Monkey: let me examine my privacy settings in FF. might be too aggressive.

heh, its only a 4 letter username, theres only so many combinations in utf-8

slash in english with symbols

btw, is there a right way to spread the artist name from one file onto a selection of other files? Like, to change that tag in all files in the selection. I've just been doubleclicking and removing the "(missing from xyx)" from the tag value, but surely there must be a better way?

feels clunky

outsidecontext or zas could help you with that question.

thanks

ruaok: I'm struggling to find a good way to avoid having content with nothing to do with the track. In your playlist you had this recording; look at what youtube suggests (mechanism would be similar to AB): https://acousticbrainz.org/2c4be698-7a50-4629-b...

Not any better with quotes, and it still might return whatever it can instead: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%2...

yep, there is always going to be shit like this with metadata matching.

Do we just roll with it?

for now.

All right

ruaok: it looks like there should be a way to do it i think, though it might be a hack

but this script is pretty easy to understand

but users are going to hate it and drop our recommendation services like a hot potato if we allow it.

content tracking disable, ad blocker disabled, autoplay enabled. still no love.

not sure i follow

I'm talking to Mr_Monkey

ruaok: Can you look in the console and see what's throwing the error?

So that's being thrown by the Spotify SDK it looks like

Are you on https:// ruaok ?

yes

Hrm.

ruaok: yeah im just curious, nbd

I think this is some debugging we'll have to do in person, when the day comes when we are allowed to do so.

>.>

sigh.

dont remind me of quarantine, it's already become almost normal to leave the house with a mask

This too shall pass

and i have a bushy beard so thats not easy to get used to

are provinces given a pass/fail each monday or every other monday? do you know Mr_Monkey ?

indeed, and c'est la vie. Plagues are as old as life itself, at least this time we're doing something useful about it

fase 1 seems so far away!

do you mind if i ask what country?

The Spanish government is meeting Friday to discuss the region's request to extend phase 0 again for Barcelona and surroundings

ah, spain

Catalunya, if you ask some people here, but yes.

i might have known, from what i know of it you guys prefer f rather than ph, right?

oh, wow. we're requesting another delay. I bet madrid is going to push for it again. 🙄

So the Catalan parliament won't know until Friday, and will advise over the weekend.

oh ive read about that

i feel for Catalan

m00n: mas o menos, sí.

To be fair, most of Catalunya will be in phase 1 by Monday. Just un big-city folks here gonna have to suck it up a bit longer…

s/un/us

we do have some of the highest population density in europe, after all.

suck it netherlands.

Hah!

l'hospitalet in particular.

oh another interesting factoid that was published yesterday.

I remember when spain first started seeing covid, it feels like forever ago you ordered a lockdown and youre only just getting to phase one?

[listenbrainz-server] vansika opened pull request #851 (vansika/candidate-recordings…itr-model): update model iteration value https://github.com/metabrainz/listenbrainz-serv...

Two months quarantine last Saturday 🎉

still not in phase 1. they are being properly cautious here.

so 5% of spain has covid antobodies now.

Yeah, I'm receiving the Telegram updates

I'm in Madrid, and I think I will be in phase 0 for some more days… I don't think we're preparaed

and if you do that math of a population of 47.1M people, it means that the actual figure of infection is TEN times higher than the reported number.

I'm pretty certain we're not :p

gr0uch0mars: neither MAD nor BCN are.

The parliament here wants to make masks mandatory in public, which I'm sure would help.

yep, all good with that.

10x... wow

except for during sports. not sure how that could work.

m00n: thats not special because spain. that is likely in the whole world.

though that range would be drastically different on a per country basis. 5x - 50x would be the range I would guess.

DW has the same take: https://www.dw.com/de/zehnmal-mehr-corona-infiz...

and its so contagious. Is there any definitive evidence that positive antibody tests (i assume thats what theyre using as a proxy) mean long term immunity? Also, is there any evidence for a definite cut-off "you are no longer contagious"? Ive heard stories that people are testing positive (with swabs, meaning contagious) again days or even weeks later.

ruaok: i know

the is no definitive word yet from what I see.

m00n: definitive proof of short term immunity, yes. Long-term, well, it's still too early to know

until the vaccine arrives I think

and I don't expect it until 2121

2021

sory

sorry

i was very avidly following all this, the models and such especially, but i stopped paying attention almost entirely sometime in late march/early april

gr0uch0mars: Phew ! Couldn't take another century of this

hahahaha Imagine so!

Mr_Monkey: true, on long term. Can you link on the short term?

Searching for it :)

this doctor (I have reason to believe him to be reputable) suggest we will get at least 3 months of immunity.

which leads me to think that if we, on average, get 1 year out of it, we should consider ourselves lucky.

I think we can assume that we'll have coronavirus shots ever 6-12 months for the foreseable future.

which, of course will push the anti-vaxxers into a bit of a corner.

ohh i like der spiegel's way of dealing with ads

i wish all sites would do that

Anti vaxxers make me laugh

adds an income stream for them, while most people go back to the same way theyve always used a given site

iliekcomputers: they make me sad and angry

So much privilege

sometimes enough to laugh

up

yup*

ya know what

Aha, found it ! m00n : https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-020-0897-1

just to encourage this kind of behavior with all websites, im gonna do something i never do: turn off adblock

awesome, thanks!

now if only i spoke german, because google translate isnt doing me any good

For German -> English I've heard something called DeepL or something like that is much better than Google

ruaok: Regarding FF, you could try https://stackoverflow.com/a/56970532/4904467 and https://stackoverflow.com/a/56441535/4904467 , you never know…

If not, Use Chrome for now and I'll look into it when we can meet

Mr_Monkey: privacy badger! geh, I keep for getting about that.

huzzah

StackOverflow to the rescue !

can we mention privacy badger in the error message?

I'm not the one outputting this message. But I can add it to the FAQ, I started adding player troubleshooting Q&A

Speaking of FF. Anyone else tried FF Dev

Mr_Monkey: another thing to try... when you have a track `Barber's Adagio for Strings (original version)` that does not resolve, remove the parts in () and try again.

that track is found without the parens.

from the right artist?

yes

Yeah. At this point I don't know how to improve it without reinventing the wheel

it's a shame Spotify's fuzzy search doesn't work in this case

I mean… we could also remove any parenthesis but that sounds like a. a bad idea and b. a slippery slope.

this whole thing is a slippery slope. which is why I was prosing a limited ecosystem that always resolves.

I think if we serve a bigger playlist we'll have a good number of playable songs (once we add youtube results

yes and possibly hide tracks that don't resolve...

woah. this very first playlist doesn't actually suck. O_O
