mp3fs VS duckduckgo-locales

> But then I've got some scripts that maintain a copy of that collection, except converted to MP3 at a variable bitrate

Yes. I have / had been doing this for years, and just want to sing high praises of mp3fs[1], assuming some kind of Linux or macOS machine. It solves this problem in a way that I think more people should know about!

I vote mp3fs.

One thing I tried (that unfortunately didn't work) was to combine a file syncing app (NextCloud/Syncthing/Resilio) with mp3fs. If it worked, I would have been able to simply drop a new FLAC onto my server and have a transcoded mp3 automagically propagate to my phone when it connects to wifi. Unfortunately I ran into a lot of issues with mp3fs crashing.

You could probably use mp3fs (homepage, github) as a model for what you're trying to do.

There's fraud and embezzlement in non-profits all the time. Just entering that in a search engine shows tons of examples: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=fraud+and+embezzlement+in+n...

When I was involved in scouts this was a thing as well; not even always due to malice, sometimes also due to incompetence and/or inattention.

Yea caught me, I self reported to try and trick everyone. Jokes aside my comment was based on net neutrality if you don’t remember https://duckduckgo.com/?q=net+neitrality+bot+comments

Some of the stuff that really chipped at our privacy as our isps got to sell our dns pings to advertisers and social media. Have a good day citizen.

AI Chat is separate from the search engine. On the search engine we have DuckAssist, which is currently grounded in Wikipedia (more sources coming): https://duckduckgo.com/?q=what+is+the+stoichiometric+ratio+b...

that one is good, but I detest keyboards with their own magic little dongle since it's a damn fine thing to misplace

I'm surprised OP didn't enjoy https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/surface-ergonomic-keyboard... which is currently listed as out of stock but I dunno if that means "permanently" or what, but they seem to be available via 3rd party channels

Its "klacking" aside, pour one out for https://duckduckgo.com/?q=microsoft+natural+elite+keyboard&t... which I loved, although I'll be straight that I love the Surface Ergonomic better because I think its keytravel is much, much nicer and no weirdo + shaped cursor keys, the inverted T like $diety intended

Sculpture can be tactile. I know it's not purely tactile, but thinking of it in that way is becoming a lot more common (eg at the Louvre). And then I went to find a URL for the tactile dome at the Exploratorium in San Francisco (https://www.exploratorium.edu/visit/tactile-dome) and it turns out there are lots of tactile galleries now:
