yalaforge ponders what to do with pending language mods
2005-03-29 08809, 2005
yalaforge
mark the album as having a pending mod (like it is at the moment), mark the attributes as pending or rather add a new pending flag just for language+script

Russss: wouldn't it have been easier to just propose an "Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice" -> Andrew Lloyd Webber mod?
2005-03-29 08830, 2005
Russss
my god
2005-03-29 08835, 2005
Russss
I forgot you could do that
2005-03-29 08856, 2005
DJKC
o.O;
2005-03-29 08807, 2005
yalaforge voted yes anyway
2005-03-29 08809, 2005
DJKC
so.... you just did ~100 mods between the two days instead of 1 for no reason?
2005-03-29 08817, 2005
DJKC
I assumed there was stuff that shouldn't be moved at first
2005-03-29 08826, 2005
DJKC
but even that would have been easier to merge and then move back over
2005-03-29 08832, 2005
DJKC
then move all these individually
2005-03-29 08839, 2005
Russss
true
2005-03-29 08843, 2005
Russss
it wasn't quite 100
2005-03-29 08849, 2005
Russss
it was about 40, I think
2005-03-29 08815, 2005
yalaforge
so much research deserves more than one applied mod :-)
2005-03-29 08808, 2005
Russss
it was just a case of how many mods I could get through without mo responding to any ;)
2005-03-29 08818, 2005
yalaforge
lol
2005-03-29 08852, 2005
DJKC
there were 50 on the page I just voted on
2005-03-29 08858, 2005
DJKC
plus 3-4 more on the second one
2005-03-29 08802, 2005
DJKC
and a fairly full page yesterday
2005-03-29 08854, 2005
UserErr0r
is there an option to hide bootlegs when looking at an artist's album listing
2005-03-29 08815, 2005
yalaforge
no, not yet
2005-03-29 08819, 2005
UserErr0r
darn
2005-03-29 08827, 2005
UserErr0r
they're annoying to work around
2005-03-29 08841, 2005
yalaforge wants to split the artist page at some time
2005-03-29 08819, 2005
yalaforge
but it's no good idea to do that before AR
2005-03-29 08826, 2005
_gremlin
why doesn't cds come with a sticker: "will not be useable in 6-12 years"...
2005-03-29 08853, 2005
UserErr0r
AR?
2005-03-29 08807, 2005
UserErr0r
gremlin, music cds or cd-r's?
2005-03-29 08809, 2005
yalaforge
advanced relationships, the next big thing
2005-03-29 08830, 2005
_gremlin
most of the cd's i've got haven't even been used that many times...
2005-03-29 08802, 2005
_gremlin
thank god for vinyl and computers!
2005-03-29 08842, 2005
UserErr0r
i hate cds... i have nowhere to put them and i dont use them, i just rip the music and put it on my comp
2005-03-29 08816, 2005
yalaforge likes cd cases and booklets
2005-03-29 08832, 2005
yalaforge
but I don't play the cds after I ripped them
2005-03-29 08850, 2005
UserErr0r
i need to relocate my cds somewhere
2005-03-29 08859, 2005
UserErr0r
my dresser drawer is about to break due to too much weight
2005-03-29 08818, 2005
UserErr0r
if i attempt to pull it out to put my newest cd cases in it it'll fall off the guide rails :(
2005-03-29 08841, 2005
_gremlin
i like to be able to see the music i've bought, and sometime i take it out and play it right right from "the source", but soon i've been forced to throw tons of them away, because you can't listen to em!

im learning how evil apple is
2005-03-29 08837, 2005

putting crap on music people download on itunes that prevents them from burning the music or playing the music elsewhere
2005-03-29 08842, 2005
UserErr0r
so lame
2005-03-29 08803, 2005

hmm... someone praise vinyl & step on cd's due to the quality of the medium?
2005-03-29 08841, 2005
canidae
afaik there's still a cd that was made in 81 or 82 that's playing in a stereo somewhere... rumours says, at least
2005-03-29 08859, 2005
canidae
vinyl actually get's damaged more & more when you play it
2005-03-29 08827, 2005
canidae
whereas cd's got like 75% duplication of the data
2005-03-29 08838, 2005
DJKC
CDs tend to slowly die if stored badly
2005-03-29 08842, 2005
DJKC
layers seperate
2005-03-29 08845, 2005
canidae
that is true
2005-03-29 08852, 2005
DJKC
which is easy to deal with, but people didn't know it at first
2005-03-29 08808, 2005
DJKC
so a lot of people have dud CDs from 5-10 years ago
2005-03-29 08814, 2005
canidae
although, vinyl dies easily if not handled well too, though
2005-03-29 08820, 2005
DJKC
yes
2005-03-29 08822, 2005
_gremlin
vinyl is damaged if played, if cleaned, if not cleaned, if stored etc
2005-03-29 08833, 2005
DJKC
but they know it needs to be stored right
2005-03-29 08851, 2005
DJKC
and almost anyone that's still the type to own/play vinyl is aware of how to do it right
2005-03-29 08804, 2005
DJKC
whereas people still treat CDs like immortal little discs
2005-03-29 08813, 2005
DJKC
that cannot be scratched or degrade
2005-03-29 08822, 2005
_gremlin
but my cd which have been treated good are in a much worse condition than my badly stored vinyl...
2005-03-29 08839, 2005
DJKC
well, then the world hates you. All my CDs are fine
2005-03-29 08844, 2005
DJKC
even the ones that have been stored badly
2005-03-29 08845, 2005
orogor
like you can slpit em appart :)
2005-03-29 08850, 2005
_gremlin
i guess oso :D
2005-03-29 08827, 2005
orogor
i ve seen buncha cd with moisisure traces inside
2005-03-29 08828, 2005
_gremlin is going to weep for a while, away!
2005-03-29 08846, 2005
orogor
as well as other ones where you can actualy split the plastic layers appart
2005-03-29 08808, 2005

i hate when people borrow my cds/dvds and they just store it in random places, outside of the case :x
2005-03-29 08816, 2005
DJKC
mostly though I subscribe to the "rip once, put away in case the hard drive dies" method of CD usage
2005-03-29 08830, 2005
DJKC
UserErr0r: don't let them borrow them then ^^;
2005-03-29 08831, 2005

I'
2005-03-29 08835, 2005

yeh... i can even still play a cd that's been in my car, stepped on, spilled beer & unknown boozes all over it & been lying on the floor outside it's casing...
2005-03-29 08837, 2005
UserErr0r
or they put it in a stack of cds, as if the label on the top of one disc wont scratch the bottom of the disc on top of it
2005-03-29 08841, 2005
DJKC
I'm more likely to make a copy quick than to let someone borrow mine
2005-03-29 08827, 2005
UserErr0r
DJKC, i almost died when my hard drive that had all my music failed
2005-03-29 08842, 2005
UserErr0r
was, it was failing, i was still able to recover all (or most) of my files before it finally died
2005-03-29 08810, 2005
UserErr0r
-was, at begining
2005-03-29 08842, 2005
_gremlin
i had a hd-crash a few years back, nothing was recoverable... tried all those "recover your files" programs...
2005-03-29 08847, 2005

harddrives are nearly as insecure as a floppy for data storage... if you got a maxtor disk it is as insecure as a floppy for data storage

2005-03-29 08851, 2005
DJKC
I dunno, it'd give me an excuse to redo some of my oldest, lowest quality rips
2005-03-29 08800, 2005
DJKC
if all my music storage drives died
2005-03-29 08803, 2005
_gremlin
it was kind of fun listening to the files it HAD recovered. A but of that song, then a bit of another etc... seems like it was really fragmented
2005-03-29 08810, 2005
UserErr0r avoids all hardware manufacturer vs hardware manufacturer stuff
2005-03-29 08823, 2005
DJKC
since I tend to rip all my latest stuff as ape+cue or flac+cue
2005-03-29 08828, 2005
UserErr0r
lol _gremlin, that happened to a few of my files
2005-03-29 08846, 2005
DJKC
and oldest stuff I have some old 128kbps cbr or xing vbr stuff left around still -_-;
2005-03-29 08859, 2005
canidae
DJKC: the agony!
2005-03-29 08803, 2005
UserErr0r
other files would be 'moved and renamed'
2005-03-29 08814, 2005
UserErr0r
so i open a file thinking its what the filename says it is
