Definitely not Roman wine. Last time we drank that, I got hammered!

Be careful with MediaMonkey, it can incorrectly change your files.

I've got dozens, if not hundreds of songs where it's changed the track number to the play count, and I've got a load where it's decreased the volume by a significant amount, presumably as part of the volume leveling function.

I don't use anything else to play or manage my music, and nothing has permission to affect it this way.

To be honest, it sounds complicated, like the sort of thing where I'd miss a step and confuse myself. That might just be me though 🙈

Thanks for the reply :)

I didn't know that OneNote could share. That might be ok for at home. I'll have a look at Anylist too. Ideally though, I want to try to go with open source software.

I'll have a look for the discussion now, thanks :)

Thanks for replying :)

It doesn't have to be real time, but it would make things a lot easier. We're both trying to get diagnosed with ADHD, and we tend to forget things until something reminds us, so if we get a reminder about a note, we'd both be likely to act on the reminder immediately so that we don't forget again. (It's a fun situation >.< ).

My current system gets around real-time collaboration needs by using 3 obsidian notes in a shared obsidian vault.

Again, with the probable ADHD, that sort of workflow would never work for us. I can understand why you want to get away from it.

Someone else mentioned Hedgedoc, so I'm having another look at it. I mistook it for an online document tool, so I definitely need to read through the site again.

For the festival, I'm mostly thinking of things behind the scenes, like if I need someone to write up some text for the website, I could add it to a note or todo list, and they could see it there, rather than me waiting to send a message in the morning, and them sending one back when they think it's a reasonable time.

Thanks for replying :)

I'll look into Nextcloud, thanks :)

I want to avoid using something like Syncthing. It would be great for me and my wife, where I can get my hands on the devices, but for the festival, I need to keep things as simple as possible. Some of the users can barely use computers and phones.

Thanks for the suggestions :)

I did have a look at Hedgedoc, but I thought it was for making online content, rather than private. I've probably got it wrong though :)

It's one of the problems I find with some open source projects, they assume that you know what the project does. They don't expect clueless people like me :D

I'll have a look at Cryptpad, thanks :)

Ah, I know the one. I've used it for Google Drive in the past. I didn't know it could do Onedrive too though.

That makes sense, thanks :)

Thanks :)

I take it that's a third party client that syncs with MS Onedrive?

A developer, Abraunegg, has made a Linux tool that syncs a Microsoft Onedrive account with a Linux system, in the same way that the Microsoft Onedrive tool does on Windows. They've named their tool Onedrive too.

I didn't know if you were talking about Microsoft Onedrive compatibility in Gnome, or Abraunegg's Onedrive. It gets a bit confusing when they both have the same name.

the most recent version of GNOME has OneDrive support

Just to check, do you mean the Microsoft version of Onedrive, or the abraunegg Linux version?

Abraunegg's version is brilliant, but the MS version would make my life easier :)

I wonder how much your age has to do with it?

I'm in my mid 40s, and didn't have a mobile until I was about 19 or 20, and smart phones didn't become popular until I was probably in my mid 20s. They just weren't a part of my formative years.

There are card providers like Curve who let you add multiple bank, credit, and store cards to one card, and select which one you want to use through an app. I don't know whether you can use them through your phone separately though, as I only ever tried it through the Google Pay system.

Curve changed their terms a few years ago so that you can only have one payment card without paying a monthly fee though, so I haven't used them for a while. On top of that, changing the selected card through the app was too slow for when I was in a queue and wanted to use a store card and then a payment card.

My boring choices would be Chinese takeaway and fresh KFC. The Chinese takeaway near me is delicious, and does great portions, but you're looking at at least £10 to £15 per person if you're not sharing. It's not a massive amount of money, but if you want to try a few dishes, it quickly racks up the cost.

The KFC is bog standard, but it's just far enough away that the food cools down by the time it gets to my house. This is more of a more money equals more time situation, so I'd have more time to go to the restaurant and eat it right there while it's hot.

A few people mentioned beef jerky. I'd like to try some of the different types and flavours. I've only really seen the one brand here, and they sell Teriyaki and spicy. Spicy just means that they've dumped enough spice on it to mask any other taste. I'd like to see what the other options are like.

Same with some of the other suggestions here, like swordfish. I'd love to try some of the more unusual foods, without going down the gimmicky route and eating things like rotten fish, or live octopus.

Holy crap, that’s not Green Day

That's kind of the point ;)

Yeah, there's no denying that it's a fantastic album :)

I disagree. When I was a teenager, I loved Green Day, Nirvana, The Offspring, and The Sex Pistols. I went through a heavy phase in my early 20s.

While I still like those artists and songs, there are other bands and songs that I like more now. (The Rumjacks are a great band if anyone's looking for something new).

The music I listened to when I was in my teens and early 20s will always be special to me, and shaped my tastes, but now that I'm in my 40s, my life is vastly different to how it was back then, and other songs speak to me more now than those songs do.

That's a good point, I hadn't thought about how I would get the information to an account yet. I need to look into how that would work for whichever software I use. Thanks for the heads up :)

Thanks for replying :)

It looks good, but possibly a bit complicated. I do want to learn Python, but I'm nowhere near competent enough to trust my finances to it yet :)
