it's the same artist, just 3 different names. this could and should be merged, right?

Yup

\o/

you made that?

the colours. i made the colours :D

neat

:D

:( someone voted down :/

wooow, it's been a long time https://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/43544496

nice to come back and.. fix old mistakes made ages ago

reosarevok: indeed, very good, thanks ;)

colbydray, nice :)

CatQuest: Not sure why you're sending that to me? Am I a badass for linking the edit SothoTalKer talked about?

one more question about whipper: if several releases have the same discid, how do I make him choose the one I want?

dosoe: Ask in #whipper? :)

(But you tell it the specific Release MBID you want it to look up.)

is dead right now

No it's not.

9 messages in the last 10 minutes.

oh sorry joined #whipper? , not #whipper

" #whipper "

I didn't know IRC channels could have question marks.

TIL.

well it was an empty channel

thanks

how can it be that xkill is much more efficient than kill or killall?

Maybe it sends different signals.

`kill` default to sending signal... 16(?).

Maybe xkill default to signal 9/KILL?

(Usually does `kill`, `kill -2`, `kill -1`, `kill -9` to give the program a chance to quit (more) gracefully than it would with a KILL signal.)

kill defaults to SIGTERM (15)

xkill doesn't send a signal, it just disconnects an x client

Ah, 15. Off-by-one errors are the worst. D:

Freso: the http://imgur.com/a/oKdg4 ? that's not an edit? (well it is. but not a musicbrainz one :P)

CatQuest: Yes. I'm wondering why you directed that link to me, and asked if it was related to the edit link I sent just prior to that. https://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/brainzbot/music...

Freso: ..no.. i.. read the text in it? they posted the line picture in here, and I was in a terrible mood, so I used time to colour in that (take a walk step away from the computer as you said I should do.. I agreed i was in a terrible mood) so i linked that to say "see this is what i did instead :D"

Ooooh, so you did it? Nice :) And got 1k views too :D

:O

yea

someone voted it down though (since it always has 1 upvote by default yourself)

i guess http://imgur.com/gallery/oKdg4 for if any imgurians here wanna vote :P

voa reosarevok you where right. 1k views... and only half of those are mine :DDD(

CatQuest: Oh. Then the link makes sense. I couldn't figure out if I was a "badass", and if so, what I had done to deserve being called that. :)

i was the badass \o/

JonnyJD: Oh. You're not on the forums yet. Do you know of a tool to make/submit DiscID from the CD TOC? https://community.metabrainz.org/t/adding-cd-wi... (I know lib/python-discid can do it, but that's a bit low-level. :))

Freso: yes there is, trying to remember the name. it was from kepstin

Freso: https://www.kepstin.ca/projects/image-id/

JonnyJD: join the forums and mention it! ;)

(they're nice forums, really :p )

^ :D

done

My old account automatically created a new account on login, I guess. Didn't have to register a new one.

JonnyJD: No, your MusicBrainz account did. :)

It's using MusicBrainz accounts exactly so people don't have to create yet-another-user/login.

(And so we can try to make sure people have the same "identity" both places.)

Freso: i went with this one: https://gist.github.com/kolen/766668

though i saved it and made it a local html

(removing the yandex tracking code :D)

you just paste the toc and it calculates stuff and provides links to musicbrainz, freedb, freedb at musicbrainz and some add release links to musicbrainz

SothoTalKer: Post it to the topic. I don't care that much about it, really. :)

there's also a python implementation: https://gist.github.com/brewsterkahle/8892436 :D

SothoTalKer: yes, please sum up your findings in the forums, this is where "google will find it"

SothoTalKer: and I do want to note, I don't particularly like the solutions not using libdiscid, as these might give wrong results/ids on some discs (particular with data tracks, pregap tracks and such)

in most case the ids should be correct though

JonnyJD i am trying to forumate a post now :-)

JonnyJD: oh i just saw that listmycds already posted the html from what I have found the source :O

ok, posted. now icecream time
