HibiscusKazeneko: avast!

you say that now, they'll bang down your door in the middle of the night and kill your family

I have one release somewhere which was originally published with different formats for some of the tracks.

YARR

(dodgy netlabels :)

IT'S not TALK LIKE A MANGY PIRATE DAY

I had one which had flacs with different sampling rates or something silly like that

you missed it

Talk like a Pirate Day is September 19

meant I couldn't replaygain them together with metaflac :/

nah, but noone else was playing

due process of law is a joke when it comes to the RIAA

kepstin-work: oh, fun

(I think foobar2000 handles that correctly)

i live in N.O.R.W.A.Y. not U.S.A.

they can extradite you

look what they tried with Richard O'Dwyer

the size of my music collection is more impressive if I count all the stuff that I have duplicated in lossless and lossy twice ;)

but that would be silly.

I have no idea what that means. but I assure yo uif someone from someplace wants ot get a guy fromnorway for "dowloading some stuff" so thwey can kill him i assure you, the guy in norway will laugh

the authorities will have no choice but to comply

look at what's happened in the UK

what?

Heh

they let the Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT, an industry group) tell them how to enforce the law

the uk sucks up to america too much though

they sent SWAT teams to cameras' houses

The RIIA told Estonia "change your content laws or we'll put you in our naughty guys list"

it worked for Spain

Estonia answered pretty much "oh ffs, fuck off"

Estonia still has an economic leg to stand on

yea, norway stopped suckign up to the us after the whole spying thing got known, they're totally not biting as much now

Spain didn't

so has norway

oooiiill

that scares me more actually

Heh. In Spain it's been mostly about our own artists being dumb and complaining they're stealing their life :p

it's good we're not in war with sweden anymore. if we where then usa probably would start meddling

(the five rich ones, of course)

hahahaha

Failing?

As in "this fails at being music, it's so bad"? :p

I have no idea

Ha.

that folder dates back to Dec 9 2012.

:D

pah I got music from 2000

but really 9th december?

cool

to be specific, the last time I modified any file in that folder was Dec 9, 2012.

hmm, exactly one year ago today :)

"Failing Music" is Nov 21, 2012.

yeeeeesss?

but I actually pulled an album out of "Poorly Sorted" just a couple days ago :)

:D

do you not run your files through Picard?

my ex-boyfriend?

HibiscusKazeneko: erh.. no?

I know who you're going to say... you

why would i talk about someone i don't know

those folders are specifically full of stuff that I haven't run through picard; either because it's from before I used picard or because it was really tricky to look up info for so I didn't bother.

I was just throwing that to the wind

ZaphodBeeblebrox: I assume you saw the topic in #musicbrainz-devel? :)

I'm trying to think of a celebrity whose birthday it is today

HibiscusKazeneko: well excuseME for having the same birthday a your stupid ex

kepstin-work: no I haven't!

ZaphodBeeblebrox: :P

kepstin-work: I saw it! yay!

HibiscusKazeneko: who cares about celebrities? is your "ex" a celebrity? who cares! I am going ot go build my lego that I got (because i bought it myself ;_;) huge lego m,odular bulding! good night folks <3

ZaphodBeeblebrox: My birthday is tomorrow. :-D

happy early birthday hawke!

i seem to remember that from last year you were the day after me

Happy birthday ZaphodBeeblebrox. :-D

\o/

happy birthday

:D

imogen heap also born today

we should add a 'happy birthday' section to the mbz front page with all the artists whose birthday it is :)

probably be a big list.

totally!

no that'd be soo cool and sorted by age/date fo birth

erh year

maybe show 5 picked at random

sbrubes has changed the topic to: #musicbrainz-devel

we had something like that..called "dashboard" but it was gone a month later

eh 150 years ago to day so and so was born

sbrubes: um...

happy birthday ZaphodBeeblebrox

thank you bitmap!

sorry

I didn't know I could do that

good thing i always do "clear /topic /topic once i na while ot clear the screen :)

I think that's exactly it :p

(thanks ZaphodBeeblebrox :) )

we could do more than just born today...died today..recorded today..released today...composed/written today...married today etc

dashboard would be soooo neat for the front page

<3<e<

thank you all!

<3<3<3<3

"Happy deathday to all these artists!"

Nah, doesn't sound as good :p

(but yeah, something like that is certainly doable)

not as good as the others, but if we wanted more than just a few datasets

well, "On this day..." works for the wikipedia front page.

New post: blog: Server update, 2013-12-09 <http://blog.musicbrainz.org/2013/12/09/server-u...;

I'm surprised there was no nomination email in this last AE election

Apparently it wasn't necessary, heh :p

But yeah

There's also no Jozo around here, so maybe he just had some holiday or whatever

if it's not required any more, maybe I should finally nominate mineo so I can stop being like "wtf, you're not an auto-editor?" :P

heh

I the nomination email was more of a guideline (like everything else in MB..) but I quite liked it.

I think*

I was expecting a lot more abstains because of the lack of an email

I didn't vote, but not because of that

I just completely forgot :D

nikki: I want to find out my usage uptime on my macbook. Do you know if there's a way to see how many hours the display has been on for?

no idea

kepstin-work: it's probably logged, just not shown to the user :p

(just sent to Apple :p)

Logged and sent to Apple/the NSa.

Yeah. :p

What would you do on your linux machine?

probably hack on the x servers dpms-code

I'll just toss this one out there before I go to bed: https://musicbrainz.org/edit/25190885 - feedback welcome.

Freso: why should the recording stay as it is? Just link it as "DJ mix" whatever to the applicable recordings? :p

(and give it a less ridiculous name / artist)

ZaphodBeeblebrox: You still on? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7dNbnmYyJg

Freso: cool

I decided to call apple and ask them about usage uptime. It stumped level 1 and 2 support. Have to wait a few days for level 3 support to get back to me.

hahaha

spoiler alert: when they bump you to level six, you find out that Steve Austin is bionic.

is that how he manages to chug so much beer?

at level seven, you find out that Coulson lives.
