Yeah. It’s a good idea to guard against it, but I would still never put spaces in filesnames that I myself choose.

Spaces in file names will always be fiddly though. It’ll work, but it’ll still be wrong, because arguments are space separated, and having spaced file names totally messes with that.

It’s UWQHD. It’s higher than fullHD, so it is high def by definition.

I know. I have nothing against the format in general, as it’s plain text and will always be readable. I actually prefer it to Excel sheets, although a proper database is the nicest. It’s just annoying that someone chose comma, a super commonly used punctuation mark, as default field separator for csv.

Or use tsv or xsv and never quote a field again.

Where I’m from, we had a wealth tax, but when it was removed in 2007, it only accounted for 0.43 % of all taxes because it was too easy to avoid.

To… Party?

And that’s totally fair, in my opinion. Speech has to flow in the language you speak, or you’ll sound like an idiot. As long as people don’t go around claiming to know and teaching others pronunciations for things that they themselves don’t pronounce the way that was intended.

there are examples like VIP where even though we could pronounce it we pronounce each letter individually.

This always seemed a bit weird to me. In Sweden we do pronounce that as a word. Vipp.

Non-acronym initialisms are an exception. I wouldn’t pronounce the letters in German.

But that’s not unconventional, is it? Everyone has one.

That’s considered unconventional where you are? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a kitchen without one here in the Nordics.

Related. I actually thought it was a sun related thing, like a solar flare, in the comic. Turns out it was butterflies.

I was equally confused about what people meant with hide the desktop. I assume they meant show the desktop.

Correcting myself here. AntennaPod does have silence trimming, but it’s neither a player button nor in settings, but in a …-menu at the top of the player, which made it a bit hard to find (Same can be said about some settings in Pocket Casts.) and there’s no graduation, so it’s mad max only, from how it sounds.

I would think podcasts without RSS is a tiny minority, and I wouldn’t take them seriously. And I’ve never even heard of ivoox.

You made me check. Since August 2018, I’ve cut about 1d using variable speed, and 1.5d using silence trimming. I’m only using mild at the moment, and have used medium before, but mad max was too much for my taste. But since I’ve listened for 83d, silence trimming is a <2% saving for me, so it might not mean much.

Edit: I do use it extensively specifically when catching up on the backlog of a podcast. So it probably accounts for way more during those times.

Ooh. Nice! I hadn’t heard of AntennaPod before. It seems to have everything that I use in Pocket Casts except for trim silence. I will try it out for a while and see if I miss that. I do use it and it saves a lot of time. Still though, OSS is a big draw.

Edit: It also doesn’t open the queue or start playing automatically in Android Auto.

Consuming podcadts through Spotify is a wild concept.

If that’s the case, I agree that it’s a bit strange.
