Fuck yeh man. I prefer the catch 22 version of this album because it sounds more raw less polished but that bit better for it in my opinion.
I was going to mention that in my original post but OP wanted ska to get into it. :D

The crawling chaos has spoken!
I'm afraid I can't remember any examples as I haven't used duo for well over a year now and have moved on with my learning with the 2 things I listed. On a few occasions though when I thought that I had learnt something new that I could use I would try and use it and my Spanish gf would flat out say what I had been taught was straight in correct.
Less relevant to you is that it teaches south american Spanish which to me is a bit disingenuous as the "course" is called Spanish and has the Spanish flag I expect to be taught Spanish spanish but instead they teach words like computadora that just would not be used un spain. Conversely busuu will teach you words from all different places but also tell you which are which rather than no explanation what so ever. This was more an annoyance to me in addition to other glaring issues that I can't fully hold against it but will due to spite in terms of my wasted time.
Duolingo is utterly useless! The only thing it is good for is pretending you are learning a language and sucjing you into a cycle of logging into the app and pretending you are learning something of merit. It doesn't teach you any practical knowledge about the language or how to use it it just throws vocab at you with no explanation of how to use it properly.
I feel pretty strongly about this because I absolutely wasted over a year and a half logging in daily, doing their shitty exercises and thinking I was learning things, when the fact of the matter is all you will learn is some random phrases and words but with no real basis on how to use them and the language properly.
I too am also learning Spanish as my gf is Spanish and she told me multiple times as well that what Duolingo was teaching me was flat out wrong, so not only is it a shit teacher it was teaching me incorrect things that I then had to try and unlearn.
It is fucking trash!
A better app if you want that style of learning is Busuu, that actually explains concepts properly and tries to teach you how to use the language correctly. In one month on there I felt like I'd learnt more useful information that in all the time I wasted on Duolingo.
Even better than that (and mentioned by another commenter) is language transfer. This is all free on SoundCloud to listen to and will teach you how to use your own language as a benefit and how to work out the Spanish from your existing knowledge. It doesn't try to force you to memorise inane and pointless vocabulary it tries to teach methods and ways to actually learn the language for practical real world use. Listening to this was like an aha moment for me as lots of different things suddenly started to make more sense.
In short, fuck Duolingo, if you want to pretend you are learning a language then feel free to waste your time on there but if you actually want to use it with the people you work with then use something else.
Likewise for me, 320 is enough as I'm not playing my music on a proper sound system or the like. In that case I can recommend soggfy for it's ease of use as it is just a modified Spotify client, you play the music you want and it intercepts the incoming stream to rip the music. Nice and easy.
I just make playlists and leave it over night to play etc
I use soggfy a lot for Spotify, with a premium account this will rip 320 mp3's for you however I think that is the best you are able to get out of Spotify. You won't be able to get any lossless rips from Spotify regardless of which method you use as far as I am aware.
You and me both! It is getting more and more frustrating.
Pacific Drive was pretty cool.
Personally I love to see someone downloading a shit load of stuff from me. Someone recently got a whole labels releases from me of over 30gb but that just tells me they have good taste in music as far as I'm concerned so I then explored their files and ended up getting a lot of interesting stuff in return.
I think these people with all their locked files asking for shit like gift vouchers in return for the privaledge of downloading a file from them are scummy, so the way you've approached it sounds great to me, you are sharing so grab whatever you need from people. Hopefully they will then explore your files and the cycle repeats!
I was curious about this too. I post every day on !dubstep@lemmy.world with an alt account over there then do all my actual surfing/commenting etc from this account.
The last 2 days when I have checked in over there though I can't see any of my posts. I was thinking of moving away from the shitty world anyway, maybe this will spur me to do it. It is mainly cause I don't know how to actually create a community and haven't bothered to look into it yet cause I'm lazy xD
Half way through the fourth book in the Shopocalypse Series -

All of those things you listed would be really nice for sure but I am really happy with my current bike as I have not had it very long anyway. It is a gravel bike with grx components so has some comfort of the tyres, reliable drive train, hydro discs and some nice drop bars for tucking for maximum possible "aero" xD
The main thing I would like currently are some better mud guards. I never had them on my last bike which j commuted on for 7 years and my god does it make a lotnof difference on those rainy days. I just hate how when I'm hopping over pot holes and stuff like that the flex causes some tyre on guard action which is really annoying.
On the whole though I love the bike so I can't complain much!
You're gonna get flak but I approve of this colour personally. The vessel not so much but each to their own xD
You and me both man, I have a system and a workflow for tagging and adding new music that kind of works for me but it is convoluted and not optimal mainly due to the software. I really liked lexicon though and for what I wanted to do it served me really well so I'd recommend at least checking it out as an option.
I have just played around for about 45 minutes and so far it is really promising to be honest. My controller had a mapping already built in that just needed to be selected along with my audio routing options, everything that I regularly use seemed to be working as expected on the controller, including the preview function which I didn't expect.
The screens and the motorised jog wheels on the controller don't seem to be implemented in any way but I don't care about the motorised wheels and the screens aren't exactly essential, just nice to have.
I pointed it at my music library and it scanned through it, ready to play in around 10 minutes (13500 tracks) which compared to traktor and serato is blindingly fast xD
It seemed to read the majority of my tags the way I have them set up just from looking at it quickly and it read my traktor collection file without me even pointing it to it so I had all my playlists with no hassle what so ever.
There are quite a few options with different skins etc so I need to sit down and have a proper look through stuff as the main things I didn't like with this initial try were visual based things just from where I'm used to things being a certain way. These are all things I can get used to having differently over time anyway bit there are also plenty of settings I didn't look into so I may be able to change it to be more familiar anyway.
Overall it was up and running quickly and easily. No fucking about with anything really, just set my controller and audio routing in options and I could pretty much have played straight away.
I'd give it a try if i were you, I'm going to delve into it deeper over the weekend I think and see what options I have but so far so good!
;)
Have you tried lexicon? I have had good results with that and it helped me a lot recently when I decided I was going to go through and reorganise my ~14000 tracks.
I'm going to try it out (all be it within a windows environment) later on today so I'll report back and let you know how I find it.
Won't you miss the amazing traktor library management? XD
Ah yeah, traktor is on there, thanks for the link!
Hopefully this update will be good to move over to for me and get away from windows! :D
Fuck yeh bro! Sick album No Gods No Managers!
