mpvacious VS steampipe

I use mpv because you can use mpvacious for language study. I also use custom scripts to locate subtitles automatically in non-trivial folder structures.

mpv, mpvacious [1], and anki

I've been learning spanish, and since hitting the intermediate stage outside of talking I mainly watch spanish shows or dubbed shows (Star trek TNG). I can create flash cards of difficult to understand phrases, or new words in seconds.

I usually still edit them slightly depending on my purpose for the flashcard, but having > 2000 cards right now, I can't imagine what doing this by hand, or manual review would have cost me.

I do sentence cards, meaning whenever I encounter an i+1 sentence in my immersion, I make a card for it. Thanks to a bunch of addons (first and foremost mpvacious), this takes like 2 to 3 button presses. "transferring the data from dictionaries to flashcards" what you're describing seems to be misguided in my opinion; once you're out of the beginning stages, you want to learn words in context to get to know all their nuances, connotations and special senses.

I'm well aware of the myriad of tools. I prefer mpvacious combined with Yomichan over anything else that's available. asbplayer is the only decent tool for Netflix and other web players but mpvacious is simply better because you can far more quickly create flashcards.

For Japanese immersion, I am using the following setup to automatically parse and analyse subtitle sentences in a series I am watching: https://github.com/Ajatt-Tools/mpvacious To briefly explain: each subtitle sentence automatically gets placed on my clipboard in the mpv media player; Yomichan, a browser extension, tracks what's on my clipboard and automatically parses each sentence if it is Japanese.

Hey guys! I have windows 10 pro and was just following some ideas shared in a youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbg6ztWecbU) that mentions the idea of using mpv to create anki flashcards. The issue I'm running into is that while all my basic keyboard shortcuts seem to work, I want to use a script called mpvacious: https://github.com/Ajatt-Tools/mpvacious

Steampipe is a tool for querying cloud APIs and other data sources using SQL in a zero-ETL manner.

Readers may also enjoy Steampipe [1], an open source CLI to live query Google Sheets [2] and 140+ other services with SQL (e.g. AWS, GitHub, etc). It uses Postgres Foreign Data Wrappers under the hood and supports joins etc across the services. (Disclaimer - I'm a lead on the project.)

be mindful of its AGPLv3 https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.21.8/LICENSE (AFAIK v0.4.3 is the last MIT release https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.4.3/LICENSE ) and the actual providers are Apache 2 <https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-plugin-aws/blob/v0.131.0...> (but I don't know if provider drift makes them compatible with 0.4 or not)

iasql seems to be AWS only, but good for them for taking this on:

In a prior post I showed how to install Steampipe in AWS CloudShell to instantly query over 460+ resource types from your AWS APIs using SQL, and another post on how to use the Steampipe AWS Compliance mod to assess over 25+ security benchmarks across your AWS accounts.

Readers may find Steampipe's [1] AWS Thrifty Mod [2] useful. It will automatically scan multiple accounts and regions for 50 cost saving opportunities - many of which are looking for over-provisioned or unused resources. For example, it's crazy how much you can save by doing things like just converting your EBS volumes to the newer gp3 type. Combine with Flowpipe [3] to automate checks and actions. It's all open source and extensible.

Steampipe [1] is an open source project [2] that includes an embedded Postgres to instantly query cloud, code & more with SQL. This release expands our plugin ecosystem [3] to be a full Zero-ETL platform. Steampipe plugins can now run natively in your own Postgres as Foreign Data Wrappers [4], as SQLite extensions [5] or as simple data export tools [6]. Please give it a try, we'd love your feedback and contributions!
