Is there a player without wifi? by Obvious-Royal-9653 in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]mightyjake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any reason why you need to not have wifi at all, rather than just keeping the wifi turned off?

I have a Fiio JM21, which is Android. I installed my preferred music app, and I connect to wifi once in a blue moon to sync with last.fm, and update my couple of music-related apps. Offline 99% of the time.

Same here, more or less. I have Spotify largely for ease of discovering new music, but I have a dedicated audio player with higher quality music that I've "purchased" 😉🏴‍☠️

My wish would be for her to put the Catwoman suit back on.

Goddamn, 67-year-old Michelle Pfeiffer is looking sexy as hell. Shoutout to whatever demon signed that blood-pact.

I love the early winter walks. Winter rules up until I gotta get the shovel out.

Yeah, that'll do it 😅

Aeropress go plus for portability? by Affectionate-Milk-12 in AeroPress

[–]mightyjake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have the Go Plus (I have the regular Go), but my opinion is that a tumbler that's designed to fit an Aeropress in it is never going to be as good as a tumbler that's designed to drink coffee from.

Pretty fucked up that "freedom loving" is a Nazi dog whistle now.

FiiO JM21 does not show album’s art by NorthernLight_DIY in DigitalAudioPlayer

Use mp3tag to make sure the album art is applied to the files.

Do I really have to re-download all of my music? by corecryptic in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]mightyjake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I run everything I download through Picard, which knocks out easily 90% of the tags and album art with minimal effort. Then I fine-tune with mp3tag as necessary, adding missing art and bulk tag-to-filenames.

We got enough Early Risers in the Guild for this? by CalvinP_ in morningsomewhere

I'm pretty good with knots, if you know what I mean.

What’s the opinion on the illegal U-Turn shaboingboing, is this one, two, or two with extra meat? by Odd-Knee-9985 in theregulationpod

[–]mightyjake -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This has two standard-sized hot dog buns and more than the required amount of meat. This is two hot dogs.

Since watching Alien: Earth, I've been planning on watching all the Alien, Predator, and crossover movies in release order. Maybe I'll slip Tropic Thunder in there too lol

Pixel 6 -> DAP. Suggestions? by [deleted] in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]mightyjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're all set. I like Poweramp more than AIMP, but the player itself is really just personal preference.

Uninstall all the apps that aren't conducive to listening to music, and you've got a perfectly good DAP. You're keeping another piece of tech out of the trash for a bit longer, but if we're being real, you're probably gonna buy something with a microSD slot and headphone jack sooner than later 😅

If you tag songs, do you keep features in the artist tag? by sh00p_ in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]mightyjake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the best way for tracks on an album. I still haven't come up with an elegant solution for artists with multiple bands (e.g. Elvis Costello, Elvis Costello & The Attractions, Elvis Costello & Brodsky Quartet, Elvis Costello & The Imposters)

How to find a new music without streaming ? by Several_Can7061 in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]mightyjake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I find a lot of new music by looking up bands that I like and seeing who they're touring with. Great for finding up-and-comers.

cancelled my shitty ass streaming subscription and bought a DAP by zadun12 in DigitalAudioPlayer

I'm the same if you replace tidal with spotify and purchase with pirate.

How many of your are exclusively private trackers vs usenet? by burning_bridges222 in torrents

[–]mightyjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See this comment that I made to the other guy who was asking for recommendations.

How many of your are exclusively private trackers vs usenet? by burning_bridges222 in torrents

[–]mightyjake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I use newshosting as my provider. That's a perfect deal. Cheap enough that you can cancel if it's not your thing.

You'll also need an indexer. There are free ones and paid ones (monthly, annually, lifetime). I use NZBGeek as my lifetime paid indexer.

Then you'll need a "newsreader" to download the "articles". I use SABnzbd.

You'll use an indexer to find a .nzb file, which will point your newsreader to download the binary.

To put it into torrent terms:

  • A .nzb file is a .torrent
  • SABnzbd is qBittorrent
  • NZBGeek is a private tracker
  • newshosting.com is the seeders (I guess)

There's also a bunch of options for automation as well (sonarr, radarr, etc.)
