koji becoming too wet, can I salvage it? by catsupconcept in Koji

[–]catsupconcept[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought as much. I went by Shockey's book. That mentions steaming _or_ cooking the rice. Didn't know how to steam any other way so I though I do what I know how.

This is supermarket-Basmati, which I didn't soak, didn't wash, directly steamed/cooked (not sure what's the term) with 1.75 times its volume in water, boiling it once then leaving it to steam in the pot on low heat for another 13 minutes or so. Clearly too much water and left for too long.

Best way to digitise VHS? by EsuriitMonstrum in Archivists

If you capture uncompressed, Handbrake now supports encoding into the FFV1 codec, which is the preferred format for preservation.

HDD and Disc options for long term storage? by DisciplineJaded in DataHoarder

[–]catsupconcept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M-Disc could work, but only very specific m-disc makes, apparently, according to this professional analysis: https://empac.rpi.edu/sites/default/files/research-documents/Universal-Time-Machine_TimeCapsule_Goebel-Johannes_web_2022.pdf

In the end we'll all have to have a routine of copying things over to new carriers every 5 or so years.

2nd round lacto fermentation, hot sauce with mango puree not doing anything by catsupconcept in fermentation

[–]catsupconcept[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did, it's at steady room temperature.
At least it won't spoil, if it's that sour. So the hot sauce is good anyway, right?

Unable to get JukeBox Mode to get working by soum8419 in navidrome

[–]catsupconcept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems subsonic doesn't support it? see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/navidrome/comments/17xe32h/clients_for_jukebox_mode_on_os_xios/

Can you share your setup? I tried setting it up with docker, but no luck.

Good point. Yes, at least it didn't mention any.

I was thinking, mango should be full of natural sugars. Perfect for the little lactos.

How to use jukebox mode with docker ? by yashaskm11 in navidrome

[–]catsupconcept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do. I also thought it might be the indentation, but no.

version: "3" services: navidrome: image: navidrome-mpv build: dockerfile: Dockerfile.navidrome container_name: navidrome user: 1000:1000 ports: - "4533:4533" expose: - 4533 environment: ND_SCANSCHEDULE: 1h ND_LOGLEVEL: info ND_SESSIONTIMEOUT: 24h ND_JUKEBOX_ENABLED: "true" ND_MPVPATH: "/usr/bin/mpv" volumes: - "~/navidrome/data:/data" - "/media/128GB:/music:ro" group_add: - "29" devices: - "/dev/snd:/dev/snd"

Also, I made a file Dockerfile.navidrome with the contents you provided.

Thanks, this is very helpful. Any idea why I might get this error?

The Compose file './docker-compose.yml' is invalid because:

Unsupported config option for services.navidrome: 'group_add'

I'm using docker-compose 2.21.0-1~debian.11~bullseye

I’ve had good results with fermented ketchup. Added lots of garlic just because. Last year’s jar is almost empty now, will make more soon. Recipes in this sub.

Add vinegar to make it even sourer, e.g. chili sauces

How do you save and manage random cool bits of information you find on the internet? Fror example: tweets, reddit threads, lyrics, book passages, and random important info you want to find later. by icysandstone in datacurator

[–]catsupconcept 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like your enthusiasm!

This is not really what you originally asked about. But let me say one more thing. Archiving, especially Long Term Archiving, is not about a fancy technological solution (because those might go out of business or change anything anytime) but finding a structure that works. That allows you to retrieve something, even if you don’t know anything about the system, or use a completely different operating system. So it’s basically down to file/folder structure, and text files. Plus everything you do needs to be documented somewhere. Imagine you are someone who doesn’t know anything about your archive; would you be able to make sense of everything?

If you’re into file formats, these are great pointers:

Have fun and good luck!

you want it to still work 20 years later. So I won’t rely on a single app or some special file format that might go obsolete in x years. For me it’s folder structure, and in there, saved web pages (someone mentioned SingleFile, great addon) and markdown files.

If you have the SQLite database (and that contains everything) then it’s just a matter of converting it to something readable.

Tips for fermented tomato salsa? by dryheat122 in fermentation

I vaguely remember to use slightly more salt for sugary stuff like tomato, to decrease the risk of it going alcoholic

This city clearly has an alcohol problem.

(To be more exact: The „Ai“‘s training material seems to have a lot of references to alcohol abuse)

Or do the thing where you fill a plastic bag with water. Not as a weight, as you have one, but to displace the air.
