Updated reference of #MPD clients and stickers is online: https://github.com/jcorporation/mpd-stickers

I should really document this setup.
Playing music with #MusicPlayerDaemon on my #Marantz controlled through a #VT420, both from around 1990.
Software is #MPD on #Debian on an #RPi 2. Soundcard is some cheap old usb Soundblaster, but using #lirc I can control MPD using its controller.
This all took some effort. 😌

Aber zumindest wir EU-Bürger dürfen in Deutschland an Kommunalwahlen teilnehmen. Auch an der Wahl zum EU-Parlament. Als WählerInnen und als KandidatInnen. Und wir sind ca. 6 Millionen EU-Bürger mit Wohnsitz in Deutschland. Stellen sie sich mal vor wir würden uns zusammentun als Partei, die nur bei Kommunalwahlen antritt. Überall. Denken sie mal drüber nach. Wie fänden sie #Ausländerpartei? Oder #MPD, Multinationale Partei Deutschland? ;) 3/5

@Crion So I eventually got around to testing out the latest beta17 and it's nice 🤓
The #MPD widget is exactly how I envisaged and works beautifully.
@jloc0 sfwbar is another nice gtk3 bar for your repo. It near on has as many features as the quickshell bars, minus animations, but it can be argued animation is just fluff wasting CPU cycles. I have a slackbuild I'll post shortly.

I have a large local #musiclibrary—mostly #flac with some #m4a. I sync it between my #nas and four computers using #rsync.
Unfortunately, I recently discovered that some files appear to be corrupted, even though I've always checked the rsync logs. 🫢

I'll need to scan the entire library now to see how widespread the damage is. I first noticed something was wrong when a few tracks started skipping mid-song while playing via #mpd / #mpc.

I guess nothing lasts forever—not even music files. 😞
