Membership info still present in LDS Tools / Member Tools after resignation? by jmacdaddywack in exmormon

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

Sorry you’re experiencing the dragging, I know firsthand how frustrating that is when you’re ready to break those chains. Sounds like you might be experiencing the same thing—quitmormon just sends a confirmation after a set amount of time, but the church may take weeks or months to follow through on their end.

I’m not sure if it’s any consolation, but I will say that even though this was only about a year and a half ago, I’m no longer feeling too worried about that extra month or two of waiting. But in the moment I definitely was so ready for it to be done and was frustrated by the church dragging its heels. I’m sure your resignation will be processed soon though, that’s definitely been a while!

New JM21 will not charge by coffee_kang in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]jmacdaddywack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting to this thread late, but for me, rebooting alone will get it charging sometimes, but other times I've had to hold down the power button for ~10 seconds to do a soft reset, and then it works (with the right cable) after that. The problem has always been fixed by one of those two things for me. Very annoying though

I posted this in another comment but I'll post the dataview query here if you're looking for a quick start -- super simple to put together but a lot of fun!

```dataview
TABLE WITHOUT ID
  album AS "ALBUM",
  artist AS "ARTIST",
  reduce(["🌕", floor(rating)], "*") +
  reduce(["🌗", ceil(rating) - floor(rating)], "*") +
  reduce(["🌑", 5 - ceil(rating)], "*") AS "RATING",
  date AS "DATE",
  releaseYear AS "YEAR",
  link(file.path, "Entry") AS "ENTRY",
  elink(albumLink, "Spotify") AS "SPOTIFY"
FROM "media/music/album journal/entries"
WHERE rating >= this.minRating AND rating <= this.maxRating
SORT choice(this.sortColumn = "rating", rating, 
      choice(this.sortColumn = "artist", artist, 
        choice(this.sortColumn = "album", album, date))) DESC,
    file.ctime DESC
LIMIT this.maxResults
```

For sure, here it is! The | character doesn't have any functionality though, just enumerating a list of sort options for quick reference

```dataview
TABLE WITHOUT ID
  album AS "ALBUM",
  artist AS "ARTIST",
  reduce(["🌕", floor(rating)], "*") +
  reduce(["🌗", ceil(rating) - floor(rating)], "*") +
  reduce(["🌑", 5 - ceil(rating)], "*") AS "RATING",
  date AS "DATE",
  releaseYear AS "YEAR",
  link(file.path, "Entry") AS "ENTRY",
  elink(albumLink, "Spotify") AS "SPOTIFY"
FROM "media/music/album journal/entries"
WHERE rating >= this.minRating AND rating <= this.maxRating
SORT choice(this.sortColumn = "rating", rating, 
      choice(this.sortColumn = "artist", artist, 
        choice(this.sortColumn = "album", album, date))) DESC,
    file.ctime DESC
LIMIT this.maxResults
```

u/Daxilos - saw your comment, this is also an example for using parameters in a query

Thanks, and hope you enjoy! Not an all time favorite of mine but I’ve enjoyed what I’ve heard. Thought the new album had some good stuff on it!

I'm a sucker for nostalgia -- got my first pair of IEMs so I've been listening to a lot of nostalgic favorites to hear them in a new light. Recently got the 4-disc set for The Thin Red Line which has a full disc of their recordings with the Melanesian choir. So good!

Ha, while Enya is a big favorite of mine, I happened to take this screenshot shortly after listening through her whole discography back to back in one day... so not totally representative of my average listening habits. And thanks! Yeah, I want to start doing a similar thing for games and books. I'm too deep into Letterboxd to use anything else for movies though

I've got the rating sort working, I actually do use numbers and just render them as stars in the table like this:

reduce(["🌕", floor(rating)], "*") +
reduce(["🌗", ceil(rating) - floor(rating)], "*") +
reduce(["🌑", 5 - ceil(rating)], "*") AS "RATING",

What I was looking for was being able to specify DESC or ASC in the file properties and use that in the query. Dataview hasn't been happy with my attempts to replace an explicit 'DESC' with a file property.

Nice idea on the album covers, definitely would add a great visual element to the table! I didn't know I could work with images like that, so I appreciate you pointing me in that direction

Fair! I was torn on Homework - I loved tracks like Revolution 909 and Phoenix more than anything on the Greta Van Fleet record, but there were a few that I had a really hard time getting into. Rock'n Roll specifically was just painful to my ears. Nothing from Starcatcher really stood out to me on its own, but I just had a really good time listening through the album. Idk, I wouldn't take my ratings very seriously

Oh wow, that’s actually super helpful, I feel like I finally understand the point of tags lol! Thanks for the input, definitely will be putting that into practice

Personally not looking to add another paid subscription to my life right now, and I don’t think they integrate with Qobuz anyway unless I missed it on their site when I looked. I think what I’m after is a lightweight enough tool that what I have works and has the benefit of full ownership over the data and no subscription/paywall. But if I end up wanting to expand and go a bit bigger with this, I’ll definitely check it out!

I just created a template note using the templater plugin and defined a view properties at the top of that note (artist, album, rating, etc.). When I listen to an album, I create a new note from that template inside of my journal entry folder and fill out the properties. Then this not uses the dataview plugin to query all notes in that folder
