aerozol[m]: alright, thanks

kellnerd: pretty sure this is not connected to your script but can you check and maybe leave a short answer at https://musicbrainz.org/edit/120292102 ?

dvirtz: wanna look into more rtl stuff? :p MBS-13899

MBS-13899: Right-to-left text mixed with LTR text not shown correctly https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-13899

(I was thinking it would be the same issue but it is a different place)

It's wrapped in `bdi` so I'm not sure why it doesn't work

Oh, the exclamation mark is actually the first character so the rendering is right

Does anyone know a tool to backup your MB collections?

I mean I could write one using the API but I guess my OCD would force me to spend the whole day for a clean and polished solution 😅

I think CAA is having issues again...

Hello, just wanted to ask does someone know how long it takes to build the materialized tables?

<kellnerd[m]> "Does anyone know a tool to..." <- In the end I wrote a quick and dirty script myself with a harcoded oauth token 😅

Unfortunately the description of a collection can't be accessed via the API, so I can't create a backup of it :(

Probably not too dramatic, I mainly wanted to have a backup of all my collections' contents before I allow 3rd party apps to access them (which can only add/remove items as far as I understand).

<kellnerd[m]> "Unfortunately the description of..." <- if you feel like making a ticket I can look into it

bitmap: I've created MBS-13901 for that

Releasing server update

is there a conveninent way to pipe results from GNU find into picard?

s/conveninent/convenient/, s/GNU/<whatever>/, s/find//

Probably teaching you how to suck eggs, but just in case: clicking the ‘tagger’ button in MB + pasting a release url into the picard search box

`$ picard < <(find . -iname "*nobody 'cept you*"|\grep Cept)`

(which is a bad example because `-name` exists for case specificity)

`find . -name "*'cept*" -exec picard {} +` worked fine, but say I wanted to grep something into picard...

s/something/results/

first time i'm seeing what my discord corrections look like on irc.

Might be a good question for #🔗︱picard-dev, if the Picard experts don't see it here

Hm? What is that?

s/What/What channel/

I forget what it's called on IRC, but there's a channel for Picard over there (the Discord channel link probably didn't make it over there, lol)

probably called #picard or something

I think it might not be bridged

oh, it could be a Matrix channel? I'd expect that it'd be bridged to IRC too, but I'm not totally sure, since I don't use Matrix or IRC myself

I see no channels on libera with "picard" in their name, at least

There is a picard channel on matrix. So maybe not IRC

I guess not

On matrix it is #musicbrainz-picard-dev:chatbrainz.org and I'm not sure if that is bridged to IRC.

Updating beta

IIRC, we did bridge it

#musicbrainz-picard-development

Oh. Hmm, I guess I was querying ALIS incorrectly
