Navidrome does that. I think you just used a bad frontend. Try Tempo if you’re using Android. Or Feishin on desktop.

I’ve been very happy with Navidrome. I have it accessible on a subdomain, so I can just use it from wherever I want. Feishin is a great frontend for Linux desktop, and Tempo is a great frontend for Android.

My friend uses Jellyfin instead of Navidrome, and he’s also happy with it. Both the frontends that I mentioned work with Jellyfin as well.

Right in front of me is a guy editing a >10 page LaTeX file in Overleaf on a 13 inch laptop. The sidebar takes like 1/3rd of the screen. The editor in around 3 inches in width, and he needs to zoom into the PDF preview to read it.

My point in, some people simply don’t care about anything.

I’ve heard many people complain about DuckDNS. Personally use desec.io for DDNS and it’s been solid.

I prefer Office 365 online.

Getting a job won’t make things easier. Most people need human friends to live a fulfilling life. I think you might be imagining that people dislike you, as we socially awkward people often do. Just try talking to people, and you’ll surely make a few friends. I’m socially awkward, but make it a point to attend some social gatherings outside of classes/job so that I’m basically forced to talk to people, no matter how hard it is. If you’re just starting university, it’ll be easier as everyone is trying to make friends, and there’ll be many open events. For later years, it might be a bit harder, but try joining some clubs. I’ve found astronomy clubs to be pretty chill and welcoming to new members.

Just make it a point to attend some social events. There will definitely be people who will appreciate your personality, just give them the chance to get to know you.

(All of this is assuming you don’t have some underlying mental condition. If you find it hard to follow this advice, maybe seek help from a professional.)

What I’ve realized in my (very limited) experience in selfhosting, it’s always best to use a general purpose server OS rather than anything geared to a specific usecase, unless that’s the only thing you’re gonna use it for. So, if you want a separate NAS drive, then it’s a good idea to use TrueNAS on it. But on your main server, it’ll be best to use some sort of RHEL downstream distro like AlmaLinux.

I don’t get scared easily, but Kothanodi had me watching through my fingers. It has four vaguely connected stories, and two of them are very fucked up. There’s a decent amount of infanticide and other atrocities inflicted on minors, so be warned if you have any childhood trauma.

Also by the same director, the movie Aamis is about cannibalism acting as a replacement for sex. It’s pretty fucked up as well.

I know too many Indians seriously affected by this.

Yeah, dual booting on a single drive causes more harm than good. It’s very annoying, and I’ve seen people think it’s Linux’s fault, saying “I can boot into Windows just fine.” It’s like saying a bully is the better kid since he never has dirty clothes.

I use Syncthing and a bunch of rsync scripts to keep my machines in sync. The stuff I want synced continuously is handled by Syncthing. Other stuff is synced on a daily basis using the rsync scripts and anachron. For Photos, I use PhotoPrism. I simply sync the Photos from my smartphone to a folder and make PhotoPrism scan it on a regular basis using ofelia. For cameras, I need to copy the photos manually, but I don’t think there’s a way around that.

I do use Ventoy, but a more “traditional” alternative that I like is Popsicle. Super lightweight, and works very well. Some cases do require a dedicated USB, where Ventoy won’t work, at least not without trickery (e.g. anything with persistent storage).

You’re right to feel the same about Google. Don’t use their messaging services. The only way to get true privacy is through transparency à la FOSS software.

You do. You get privacy.

Don’t mean to necrobump. But I have Syncthing GUI working over a very similar setup. Let me know if you still need help setting it up.

I haven’t really done much recursion in Python, but can’t we do a tail-recursive version so that it (almost) never reaches recursion depth issues?

You’re pretty much right on the money. In Haskell, a String is a type synonym for [Char], so we can use the list concatenation function ++ to join strings. ++ is an infix function i.e. [1,2,3] ++ [3,4,5] = [1,2,3,3,4,5] (which will be equivalent to doing (++) [1,2,3] [3,4,5] by virtue of how infix functions work in Haskell). When we do (++ "a"), we create a partially applied function. Now, we can supply another string to it and it will add "a" at the end of it.

iterate f x produces a lazily evaluated sequence [x, f x, f f x, ...]. So, to get the nth entry, we can do wine !! n where we use another infix function !!. With partial application, we can modify the definition of wine to create a function that takes an Int n and spits out the nth entry of it by doing

wine = (!!) $ iterate (++" Is Not an Emulator") "WINE"

We needed to wrap the !! inside parentheses because it’s an infix function. $ just changes the order of application. (IIRC, it’s the least significant function.) You can think that we’re wrapping whatever’s on the right of the $ by parentheses. Now we can do wine 2 instead of wine !! 2 to get "WINE Is Not an Emulator Is Not an Emulator".

I’m by no means a Haskell expert. (I’m not even a professional programmer lol.) So, if someone would like to add some more details, they’re more than welcome.

Edit: A much more readable version might be

wine 0 = "WINE"
wine n = wine (n-1) ++ " Is Not an Emulator"

Sorry, I should’ve specified, it’s in Haskell. Idk where you tried running it.

wine = iterate (++" Is Not an Emulator") "WINE"
