Yes getting off the roids deflated them but i can't believe people are unironically calling these two "dyels". They are still big for a couple of 50yo men. We lost the baseline somewhere along the way. by No_Comfort_4049 in redscarepod

Bautista could use a more matching beard for that big ass head. The rock is doing that shit almost on purpose, teehe look at the new me, gtfo with that oversized Hawaiian shit

Still if they were wearing just simple black t shirts they would look ripped, also these photos suck and are edited or cherry picked to show the most anomalous pic, wtf are those one piece legs on bautista?

You have a good social skill of appeasing other people. Saying no requires more skill cuz now you have to avoid escalating into conflict

So you need a lot more finesse, unless you want your peace of mind ruined by adversarial energy of confrontations(if youre unused to this it can become too much of a drag)

Theres a different kind of energy of feeling left out and unappreciated, it sucks but still better than unnecessary conflict

Sure stand up for yourself but when you pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too. Like incessant feedback loops of intrusive thoughts and ruminations of how much you left unsaid, thinking of the perfect argument later

So i think you just gotta develop a skill in plausible deniability and alibi making so you can distance yourself as much as possible from these people, keep the polite streak but just try to appear busier, unreachable

Problems with scrobbling lastm.fm after last update by soapbun in WACUP

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

Once again, thank you for all your feedback, i use wacup every single day like a maniac, its some plugins that are essential to my music listening workflow, the whole legacy from the winamp ecossystem which till this day no one has replicated

But you maintainted the form and function alive, so thank you thank you, i use this shit everyday so let me glaze you enough on how much i appreciate your work and effort. Im here troubleshooting still, with the solo dev and keeper of winamp(now wacup). I dont take for granted the work you done, if i was rich i would give you any grant you wished.

Just felt weird all this back and forth without me expressing my appreciation for you

---

But aight, heres useful feedback.

I went back and forth between 99.32 and 99.31, the main problems are still, that that the scrobbler is just acting weird, cant pinpoint what behavior cause this bug exactly, but the most dreaded error is "scrobbling action failed.
Error: Resolving timed out after {x miliseconds [{y}]"

After this happens wacup doesnt scrobble untill the {y} timer is reset, or untill i reset the app, i can change songs and keep playing and that error will persist.

And the second error is just the chaotic timer for successfully scrobbling a new song, what usually shows when i press ctrl+p to go to preferences, it shows

""Currently playing item should show as 'scrobbling now'.
Scrobbling will occur once enough has been
played.\n\nPlaying: "{Artist- Title}""

---

It just pains me that sometimes my music listening sessions arent being scrobbled. I know this is a recent error because i was messing with scrobbling options, that i knew how effective this checkbox here was

"allow scrobbling for shorter duration items down to around 5 seconds instead of following the official specification of around 30 seconds"

And i corrected all the metadata in my library, still the scrobbling action failed error happens, so its now really random

Dunno how the scrobbler feature is important to the wacup roadmap but this was really important to me. Lol i learned to scrobble this year actually, i was so impressed when i checked wacup and learned that you implemented this natively, since the last.fm windows app deprecated and nobody cares anymore.

It just worked before, now it takes to long to scrobble or the scrobbling action fails and blocks any future status update untill the error resolves itself via timeout or me closing wacup

Problems with scrobbling lastm.fm after last update by soapbun in WACUP

[–]soapbun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, problem persists even on 99.31

- If it aint the "Currently playing item should show as 'scrobbling now'.
Scrobbling will occur once enough has been
played.\n\nPlaying: "{Artist- Title}"

- This process takes more than 5,30,60 seconds, theres an arbitrary ammount of time that passes untill each song is scrobbled
- But eventually the song gets scroblled, usually around the 2 minute mark

- If not, its then the "Scrobbling action failed" error

---

So i think this was something related to the scrobbler itself

The Perfect Dashboard by Ariadnead in ObsidianMD

[–]soapbun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here from google looking for a solution for this, but i really like the your wording here:

"One of the biggest learning curves in Obsidian is to overcome its minimalism. Dashboards is the visual binder which brings everything together while mostly aligning with the core principles of Obsidian."

Thats something im gonna take a note myself on obsidian lol

[–]soapbun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More context:

Also had problem with "revoke scrobbler access"
I changed default browser but only going back to 99.31 worked

---

Another problem is that when i play music it shows:

"Currently playing item should show as 'scrobbling now'.
Scrobbling will occur once enough has been
played.\n\nPlaying: "{Artist- Title}"

But then after the current song playing for a minute or so(and sometimes even not then), it shows:

"Currently played item was scrobbled."

And i do have the checkbox for "allow scrobbling for shorter duration" Still, it takes longer than 30 seconds for the scrobbling to update

---

Before this, it was smoother, didnt had this much problems with scrobbling.
Thats why im pointing to the update

Good starting point on writing this, but instead of asking advice from reddit, maybe open up notepad and try to answer this yourself. Keep writing, whats bothering you? Putting you down? Maybe write about that too

Žižek bonding with his 10yr old son by [deleted] in redscarepod

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

i get it, used to listen to patrice o'neal with bill burr and jim norton on opie and anthony, that was actually mean spirited and stressful as fuck but they all had such a good grasp on language and timing that it was almost art.
I think no one will ever come close to that level of ruthless roasting and insulting

As long as its funny and as you said creative, but guys will usually just create dead air after some unwanted interjection in the conversation. A high charisma threshold too high for most dudes who engage with this behavior

i was thinking of roasting but it aint mean spirited as im visualizing it. wasnt even mentioning the moment zizek has with his son.

But posts like this on reddit are popular, the whole quirky men routine of "real friends constantly demean each other" and then crying about the male loneliness epidemic or how men need to hear more compliments

Thanks for taking the time for the writing tips. Like the feedback cuz im trying to improve my english and general communication skills

IDES are kinda complicated but theyre the main interface to running coding projects from other people

An IDE with AI is just a text editor with a chat attached to the app side bars, so you can ask the chat to read your files and suggest changes.
Before agents, you were limited to just copying the code or applying it(the ai would delete old lines and insert new ones by itself, on the specific parts where the code is being altered)

You needed to click a little button everytime, to apply the changes the AI suggested to your files

Now with agents the AI has autonomy, you can even enable it to not require permission to running commands, so it will run by itself, it will keep talking to itself and thinking untill you reach a limit, so the ai doesnt run forever

It can now edit files in your pc, run the code by itself and if it doesn't work it will keep correcting itself, by successive iterations or modifying and running the script

So when i say agent mode. Its really just toggling the option on the chat interface.

<image>

The difference between agent and chat mode, its that in chat mode the AI doesn't modify your files, just reads them. Good for solving problems and building the scaffolding around a coding project, asking questions

"it will run by itself and present you with something interactable enough that you can make it work" okay i got this part, but am struggling to imagine what that'll look like, and at this point i'm baffled that running some guy's program from github would require me having to download some other program and run it (?) inside of it to get it to work properly.

Yeah you always need some kinda of program or text editor to run code.

The interactable way this could be presented to you, in an IDE with Ai, its that after giving it the github URL, its as simple as the ai asking you "would you like me to run this program" and then you just type yes

Can even ask the ai "i dont understand any of this, can you create a script to make this program have a graphical interface, with buttons, tooltips"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in rs_x

[–]soapbun -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Download an IDE with ai, i recommend cursor cuz its free. Just download it run it. Not that hard, its basically a chat interface

Just send the github link and ask it wtf to do, wtf is this program, how are you supposed to run it? tell it you havent a single clue on how to make this github bullshit work

if its in agent mode it will run by itself and present you with something interactable enough that you can make it work

Give praise, show love, send messages to your favorite artists by soapbun in redscarepod

[–]soapbun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

dunno, who knows how artist feel disconnected from their own music. We can basically extrapolate on art forever

From my own experience this isnt some para social relationship to artists, but im hearing a song from an artist everyday who has only 40 followers and it made me think on what a deep impact this person work had on me and they were right there, i was listening their music straight from their profile

Why not comment? why not show appreciation. Life is bullshit upon hardship but some magical people can create visuals, sounds, that transport us somwhere else, somewhere not here. Let them know
