or someone else here who is subscribed to style ML ?

nice! Thanks :) I should have created a forums thread from the start with a link to it in my ML post but now it's too late. I don't think I have anything else to say anyway ;p
warp: I really don't like receiving tons of e-mails I just delete them all the time even if I'm only subscribed a few minutes I receive tons

I think it'd be "ow", but I can't be sure what you wanted it mean :)

duck duck go, is it nice search? nikki: I don't have troubles on duckduckgo (same browser)
2010-06-11 16241, 2010
nikki
dunno, I've never used it, I was just looking at warp's examples

jesus2099: I can understand that you don't like that. But you will have to if you want to make the change you suggested.

I can pass the flag or something like that...

I use google because I'm used to using google and every time I try and switch I just get confused
2010-06-11 16252, 2010

hehe, kuno: what's nice with the duck? at least the logo is cute

warp: I know it's quite absurd to create a ML entry and unsubscribe but it's the only place I was supposed to post something like that. I can't follow discussions in mailing lists, that's a technical problem in my brain, if it's not all on one page like a forum. So it wouldn't help anything if I staid subscribed anyway.

jesus2099: much better focus on privacy, google sometimes replace links with broken redirect links which you cannot copy/paste, a support email address where someone will quickly respond to any issue you're mailing him about.

hm, google isn't smart enough to ignore leading zeros though
2010-06-11 16242, 2010
luks
perhaps we should allow unsubscribed users to post to the ML
2010-06-11 16201, 2010
luks
most mailing lists I'm subscribed to use settings like that
2010-06-11 16227, 2010
luks
they have to be moderated first, but still better than having other people to post instead of you
2010-06-11 16246, 2010
nikki wonders who even handles the mailing list stuff anyway
2010-06-11 16232, 2010
warp
luks: who's going to go through all the spam and find the few posts which are actually supposed to go through to the mailinglist?
warp: I know what you mean about their links it's really annoying me now (it's new isn't it) links are google redirects, I have to use a userscript but it sometimes doesn't retrieve the real URL nicely so maybe I'll replace google by duck if you didn't see any drawaback (did you?)
2010-06-11 16245, 2010

I'm admin of taglib-devel [at kde.org] and it rarely gets spam
2010-06-11 16203, 2010
nikki
I just switch domains when the redirects appear, they seem to come and go for some reason
jesus2099: I use duck duck go as my main search engine, but still use google often enough in areas where ddg doesn't give me good results.
2010-06-11 16229, 2010
nikki
we could always give it a try, if it doesn't work, go back to members-only

luks: if you're volunteering, I won't object. I personally don't really see the need for it.
2010-06-11 16257, 2010
luks
I don't know if there are any spam filters
2010-06-11 16206, 2010
luks
obviously it doesn't make sense if there isn't anything :)

hey guys don't change all this for me, sometimes I need to post so I create a temp. e-mail adress
2010-06-11 16204, 2010
jesus2099
But I just don't read anything there are way too many posts and it is not structured
2010-06-11 16220, 2010
jesus2099
nikki: with all these lines I didn't get what you were "talking" about switching domains?
2010-06-11 16233, 2010
jesus2099
It's a way of removing statistics redirects in google?
2010-06-11 16224, 2010
warp
jesus2099: probably using google.de or google.fr instead of google.com, and vice versa.
2010-06-11 16229, 2010
nikki
I mean like switching from google.com to google.co.uk or google.co.jp or wherever
2010-06-11 16256, 2010
nikki
there's a long enough list of domains, after all :)
2010-06-11 16221, 2010
jesus2099
Before I use the userctip to remove redirects I didn't see that changing domains would remove them!!
2010-06-11 16214, 2010
jesus2099
If duckduck is cool and doesn't try such funny stuff it's even better because having to run after google by regularly update a userscript is tiring...
2010-06-11 16201, 2010
jesus2099
I added duck as "d %mysearch%" in opera, I'll see by myself ;)
2010-06-11 16242, 2010
jesus2099
Thanks fatih for the shortened url in hmv and amazon, I can change my "amaj" and "hmv" opera searches too now ;)

What are yours, nikki ^^

2010-06-11 16233, 2010

well I have a huge list but I use "ajp" for amazon.co.jp (and auk for .co.uk and ade for .de)
2010-06-11 16244, 2010
jesus2099
I have a great "jan" search too: g "jan *" %s ;)
2010-06-11 16217, 2010
jesus2099
simple search often gives nice stuff, detailed release info
2010-06-11 16200, 2010
jesus2099
warp: does duck understands "advanced" searches with -exclusions +must "the phrases" inurl:stuff etc. ?
2010-06-11 16214, 2010
jesus2099
-"excluded phrases" etc.
2010-06-11 16227, 2010
nikki
and wikipedia ones are the language code follows by w (enw, jaw, dew...), musicbrainz ones are mb followed by the letters I use when writing sql queries (mba for artists, mbb for releases, mbn for annotations...) although mbw is the wiki
2010-06-11 16245, 2010
nikki
and dictionaries are based on the language code, of course :P
2010-06-11 16225, 2010

oh, and yja for searching the yahoo auctions :D

2010-06-11 16226, 2010

for wikipedia it's wja, wfr, wvi, wen etc. ;)

Hey I do have exaclty same as yours for mb! ;-) (plus mbu, your URL searhc tool)
2010-06-11 16248, 2010
jesus2099
mbr for release (why mbb?)
2010-06-11 16254, 2010
nikki
because the table in the database is "album" ("release" is the release events table)
2010-06-11 16217, 2010
nikki
so I use b for the album table, r for the release table and l for the language table :)
2010-06-11 16250, 2010
jesus2099
oh, because you know the db, even more geek

Do you know the textparser.php and the artisttracks.php by Muz? It's now offline and maybe I'd like to put it on my php website, but it needs a db and I don't know if I can put the MB db in mysql? Can I ?
2010-06-11 16234, 2010

wizzcat: hey, I am taking yours, they roxorz indeed!
2010-06-11 16255, 2010

I think people have managed to import the database with mysql, but I doubt you can keep it up to date
2010-06-11 16200, 2010

what did those do anyway?
2010-06-11 16211, 2010

they roxorzed

actually I think it's spelled rox0rz ;)
2010-06-11 16202, 2010
nikki
well I was wondering if I have one that's similar (or if it would interest me enough to make my own :P)
2010-06-11 16233, 2010
jesus2099
artisttracks would display all tracks by that artist MBID and parsertext would display a release in a text form (copy paste -able in track parser etc.) I would use them with my http://userscripts.org/users/31010/scripts mbid script
2010-06-11 16209, 2010
jesus2099
How can I load MB DB in mysql then ? :) I can load it regularly for updates maybe
