Thanks to the great had drive crash of my great MS attack…around 2020ish. Ya know much in the same ways the dinosaurs view the great extinction event. But at least I have my main system up and running for ripping (with a somewhat hefty video card)
Wow
That could have been bad. I lost my MINI PC. I think it’s the power supply. But I’m not concerned as I plugged in my old box with debian on it, and that’s what I’m sing to post now. Thank goodness. Like I said, that could have had a much worse outcome. Now to figure out what happened to my mini pc..A low priority issue as I’ve got my old PC to keep me going….for now.
I am
dead in the water until I get funding for a new power supply. and while I can’t guarantee that a new PSU will work, its better than just sitting here.
I might be on a shoestring
Budget wise, but I’m guessing (with the education that 40 years brings you) that my power supply popped a cap. I can get a 600w psu replacement for ~$45 for a white label thermaltake PSU.
The only problem is I have to hope the PSU didn’t take any components out.
Of all
the things I didn’t need right now, it was my main workhorse up an dying tonight. 8 cores of intel goodness are now gone. 🙁
Oh whew
I got sucked into samba
and i am fully in to groove salad classic. A fine soundtrack to get your geek on!
A long time issue solved
Since pretty much the beginning (still post millenia) I’ve been trying to get somafm to rip via the terminal in Debian.
turns out, it was the user agent string, which you can append with the -u flag:
e.g. streamripper https://somafm.com/gsclassic.pls -u mozilla
and it got it, finally I can check that one off the bucket list. Like I said, pretty much sine the turn of the century.
NOTE: streamripping may be illegal where you are, and since IANAL: use at your own risk.
OMG
I got my s7 tab back!
