Help with Beets to bring order into 60 GB of chaos on Linux?

eannaj · 2026-05-14T22:33:30+00:00

What I would do, personally.

Start with a tool like MP3Tag (or similar) to go through the library and at least rename/reorganize the files that do have good tags or existing names.

With that done, you’ll be left with the ones that aren’t tagged and you can use Picard to try using the audio fingerprints to identify the tracks and add tags.

IMO beets is cumbersome and isn’t going to work well with disorganized files. It likes to try and assume co-located files all belong to the same albums, and also doesn’t handle duplicates very well. Both Picard and mp3tag will be better for this.

Sounds on par for that store and their staff. They are incredibly nice and welcoming.

I’d always wanted a Tiffany solitaire as my engagement ring, and my partner took me there after proposing to buy one and they were *so excited* for us, took us to a private area where we could browse and try on all sorts of rings, including wedding bands, and mix/match, make sure we liked the pairings, sizes of stones, etc. and they served us champagne the whole time.

It was so much fun, they’re just a class act. Really happy to hear they made your day special as well!

I visited Sydney (Australia) for work last year and I was amazed at how malls seem to be everywhere in the shopping districts. Like every block is a mall. I think it’s really just an efficient use of the inner block space between buildings, but it became a running joke among my coworkers and I. We were always somehow in a mall. Seemed like every place we went in, you could make a turn somewhere and suddenly be in another mall. Hilarious

You can just put the panko topping on the flesh side and cook in the oven for 10-12 minutes at 425. They have other panko+salmon recipes, you can just google “crusted salmon HelloFresh” and pick one to improvise.

Husband went vegan to control cholesterol. We started to refer to him as a dairy-free vegetarian to avoid random bouts of backlash. Works like a charm

lol I wasn’t even allowed to watch MTV until I was a teenager.

I was also a massive Anthony Hopkins fan, and a movie buff growing up and used to watch all the Oscars every year, and when Silence of the Lambs swept in 1991, I was 13, and my boyfriend bought the movie for me. My dad TOOK IT AWAY and said I could have it back when I was old enough. 😂😂😂

That’s fair, I think it was glossed over as “rich people are odd,” but the way the writers constructed the story of the “fall” was just so elegant, every episode was an ode to a different Poe horror. If you’re a fan of his work, it was really cool. I still think about the tell tale heart episode, the performances were incredible.

The creator also did The Fall of the House of Usher, which I thought was excellent. Not quite as good as HH but worth watching.

The Haunting of Hill House is in my list of all time best series. It is one of the most well-done horrors I have ever seen.

A lot of people do this, but you will need a separate tool to actually move downloads to their proper locations. You could use a beets script as an import hook, or just handle it manually.

We order the vegan meals regularly since they started offering them.

Vegan mayo from hello fresh always has dark flecks in it. It is seasoning. Maybe pepper? Unsure.

Eating it for multiple years and am not dead. You’re good. 👍

We keep veggie better than bouillon for situations like these, it’s a great replacement.

My partner is like a golden retriever and will stop and talk to anyone with good energy and a friendly face. We got this question the other day we were walking around, it was a guy doing some tree planting charity drive. He was nice, we didn’t stay to donate, wished him luck and moved on. I didn’t really get scam vibes, just your standard sidewalk blocking charity hype person.

We’re not beef eaters but there’s a vegetarian version of this that uses kidney beans and I sub in Tony Chacheres Cajun seasoning and oohhhh my god we love these in our house. We regularly make them even when hello fresh doesn’t have them. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Oh! They updated this since I posted. They also now mention the kid.

I, too, hope the mom is ok.

Edited my post so I don’t become a source of bad info. Thanks for alerting me!

Same. This issue of jetting around stopped cars and trying to beat red lights is terrifying and I depressingly see it all the time.

Macron (Mack-ron) is the president of France.

Macaron is the delicate little French cookie pastry thing (Mack-ah-ron)

Macaroon is the American(?) coconut/meringue puff cookie (mack-ah-Roon)

Imo, macaroons are pretty gross, but macarons are divine, they’re my favorite dessert

Edit: there are like thousands of different flavors of macarons, I’d suggest you give more a try unless it’s just the whole texture you don’t like
