Doofy, what are you talking about? I'm suffering no last.fm woes atm, and am not aware that others are.

EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR??!?!?!? SIXTY SEVEN CENTS A MONTH??!?!? OVER TWO PENNIES A DAY???!?!? ARE YOU INSANE??!?!?

Assuming you were download the scripts in question (libreimport.py, etc, iirc) - then you'd install the various tools or libraries, then run specified commands in the terminal. But it's not clear to me that any of the tools do What One Wants, which …

eythian, I can't find anything that clearly imports into libre.fm a full listening history. I see references to some python scripts, but no clear tool that uses the last.fm exporter output (or, better, simply an iTunes xml library file). What's the …

Besides occasionally having to resync to correct an "out of space" complaint, syncing has acted very reliably for me. (The only frequent complaint I have is that some dynamic playlist content is occasionally static and/or doesn't match the iTunes li…

Gp, TNG s1-2 are notoriously bad. HOWEVER, s3-5 are great. So stopping now would seriously be the worst of all worlds. Please note that the s2 finale is the worst of the worst, so I beg you, please drink heavily during it. But then strap in f…

Works for me, I can deal with 'dismissing', and have now done so.

So my expressed opinion has infinite times more weight than anyone else's. Why would that make you nervous, Gp?

I definitely prefer sticky categories over sticky threads. I also agree with BT that a proliferation of categories isn't all that useful (tags instead would be better).

(JUJ's observation is why I don't think we need to make the beginner's guide sticky...)

I missed seeing anything about moderated posting. Assuming most spam accounts are bots, wouldn't the following work:Is first (moderated) post spam?

Is there an option to have new members have moderated posting? Spammers are unlikely to fake real comments before starting to spam.To be frank, I prefer zero sticky threads, and outright question the decision to mark any thread as worth permanent location at the top. Or, another way of looking at it - take the 'Announcement' label seriously, and see it as a function meant to te…I regard sticky threads as generally kinda evil, and would vote that they really be kept to a minimum. For example, I'd immediately make the "beginner's guide" and forum-maintenance threads non-sticky. Four's too many in my book, period.Fwiw, I never understood "whispers" as a replacement for a PM, and do not know what use case bn has in mind that he misses. What's the value of an almost-invisible post to a thread?(Quote)Well, yes, but only because it rather unbelievably doesn't mention "We Built This City".

I didn't know anything about B&R, but after clicking to hear the Lightcap track a few days ago, I let it play through the related B&R tracks and enjoyed the hell out of the mix. Those folks pick good music to rep!Some decent (~$5.99ish) prices at google for some indie hits a…1500+ albums were mentioned in P&J, but 1110 were single mentions - 411 were mentioned more than once. (Just adding context...)Crap, I see that cd is no longer listed on the site - must have sold out, missed the boat. I hope they reprint them. I quite dislike the idea of paying $30 for flac files.I'm not an Eldridge expert, but he was a notable swing-era trumpeter, so sampling late-30s-early-40s is probably a good idea (e.g. in Jazz starter list Comment by kargatron January 2015No luck for me, oh well! That's a crazy gift, who knows wtf is up with their finances these days. Tick tock.Quite a good list, not necessarily what I'd expect to see in Rolling Stone: 20 Best Avant Albums of 2014I was merely drawing a perhaps inappropriate comparison to the theme of Nereffid's list, I guess.
