Hello. I've been silenced, removed and blocked enough on lemmy dot ml for being a filthy leftist but not a falling in line defending totalitarian states full blown authoritarian communist. Sooo I'm blocking everything from lemmy dot ml so I don't have to be bothered with any more of that nonsense. If you are on lemmy dot ml and commenting on me I will not see it. Ta ta.

  • Yeah, me too. It's annoying how Qobuz encourage user feedback with a special app and then just go stone wall about it. There are several threads about common problems in their services and they don't give any response at all. I hope it gives some pressure anyway with the updoots for common annoyances that can no longer be ignored.

    AI is overkill. All that is needed is matching acts and albums to one of the free or proprietary datasets online. Some API integration and maybe licensing and it's done. It's just a decision that somebody up the organisation needs to make that they don't for whatever reason.

  • No shit with the company that has a CEO that calls music ~"content without production costs". Soulless middleman profiteering ghouls.

    1. This is annoying, I agree. Join Qobuz Club and upvote suggestions to prioritise cleaning it up.
    2. Contact the acts management to pressure the label to release on Qobuz too. It should be in their interest.

  • Back in ancient times when I was a system administrator we got a heads up that there be a new breed of Outlook worm coming soon to our timezone.

    So we mailed the entire office that if you get mail that looks like this or that, do not open it, do not interact but delete it on sight.

    Most of the office was all right, except pretty much entire sales and marketing departments including the bosses. Most of them had noOo idea what could have happened but one of them explained that they saw the warning but they were curious to see what the virus looks like.

    People. What a bunch of bastards.

I know other dog people in the neighborhood, some that we meet up and give each other presents at times with homemade goodies. I've got my friends spread around the city and in other parts of the country or the world.
