Thanks a lot! This might just be enough to get me to actually try it!

Hi! I’m interested in trying Nushell at some point, although I keep putting it off…
Would you share your experience on a couple of items?
- How easy was it to get started?
- Do you find, or did you at least find in the beginning, that it is more suited for some particular tasks than using it as your day-to-day shell? If so, what were those?
- Can you integrate it with existing tools that you know how to use from other shells, like
grep
orawk
?

RoadTrain@lemdro.idto Linux@lemmy.ml•App for downsizing MP3s automatically when copying to a phone?English3·2 days agoHey! Good to know about the 128 kbps threshold.
What’s your take on MP3 bitrates? I’ve read some posts online claiming that 320 kbps is overkill most of, if not all of, the time. They claimed that there is little to no gain going above around 220 kbps. In your experience, is there any truth to this?
RoadTrain@lemdro.idto Linux@lemmy.ml•App for downsizing MP3s automatically when copying to a phone?English27·2 days agoFor lower bitrates, I’d suggest using a different codec than MP3. Opus is really solid, and at 128 kbps it will probably get you quality similar to MP3 at 192 kbps. Or you could go lower, and 96 kbps with Opus will be similar to MP3 at 128 kbps. I don’t know an app that will do it automatically, but the CLI tools are really simple to use: you point them at the FLAC and tell it the target bitrate and that’s it.
Alternatively, if you have access to a macOS machine, their AAC encoder is really good and likely superior to any MP3 encoder at equivalent bitrates.

The answer is only yes if the question is “Hibernating and booting into another OS and modifying the same partition externally: will my filesystems be corrupted?”.
That’s a shame. Has the developer stated this, or is it just based on the lack of activity?
There seems to be a fork planning to continue the work. It was updated only a few hours ago.
