Tokyo police have referred two lawyers and a clerical worker at a law firm to prosecutors on suspicion of receiving illegal referrals from an agency that helps people quit their jobs. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/02/05/japan/crime-legal/momuri-attorneys-law-suspect-violation/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #crimelegal #japanesepolice #jobs #mpd #momuri #corporategovernance
@stackeffect @howard @xenodium Doesn't #mpd just allow remote control of the server via the client? I wasn't able to get it to stream from the server and play music on the client. The #mpd client basically just showed what was playing on the server.
@howard @xenodium There is also #mpd, easy to set up on #raspberrypi and with a client in #emacs .
The head of a company that helps people quit their jobs has been arrested along with his wife on allegations of illegally referring clients to lawyers in return for payment. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/02/03/japan/crime-legal/japan-resignation-agency-president-arrest/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #crimelegal #japanesepolice #jobs #mpd #momuri

My cava sound animation is now real 😈
It has a python backend with pycairo overwriting a temp file every 50ms.
The mixer is now integrated into the application.

For my #mpd frontend this is is about it! _Almost_ pure qml except for the visualizer which is a nasty, but sane enough hack.
I'll probably code my own with Qt c++ , fft and cairo (at least I'm good with one of those 👅 ).
Not much chop with python either but seems like a good choice for the backend, especially since there will be more front facing stuff like playlists, album list, whole collection lists etc.
Going with a strong open for my #maccTech talk on #music #freedom
Featuring #ompd #mpd and #homeassistant as well as @nham and #bandcamp
See you in #macclesfield on 28th @ https://luma.com/rclvr0sp

Progress. The frontend is now an actual working prototype! The backend is still bash but will be better in python so that is the next step. Also the vacant area top right needs something .. :thinkingwat:

A new #mpd frontend? #quickshell #slackware
#Tennessee #HighwayPatrol charges peaceful protesters During the #anti-ICE protest #THP, despite orders to NOT escalate from #MemphisPD, charged protesters and started grabbing/cursing at them. #MPD blocked the road and redirected traffic around the protest and did not engage during the event.
Starting on my talk for #maccTech in a few weeks.

I just found that RMPC and Poweramp (on my phone) allow you to define characters for how to split genres. So now you can have "epic doom metal // doom metal" to have it appear for both?
Oh, the rabbit hole...

My workflow with #Slackware #music #mpd #quickshell (for the cental mixer gui) and #python #pyqt6 for the tray icon and volume slider.
So #resonate and #snapcast turn into #sendspin multiroom audio streaming and control protocol!

rmpc is a TUI client for #mpd with modern terminal features.
cava is a TUI audio visualizer that rmpc can embed and it can visualize mpd-like FIFOs
snapcast is a generic service for synchronized audio over network. Which can read from mpd FIFOs. And on the client-side output into any file – including ones created by mkfifo.
One hacky shellscript and a bunch of configuration later and I have 60fps audio visualization for a *remote* mpd instance in my terminal. 🤤
