Discord sucks. The client is slow and ugly.

This will grow, but it's changing the weight on the nicks and giving colors based on the numbers in their avatar's file name. It also hides the avatars because they're ugly.

This also tightens up the channel buffer and makes channel names red on activity. If you aren't already, be sure to enable the Favorites Server experiment.

For this CSS:

open developer tools
expand <head> and find the <style... after all of the prefetch and before all of the preload javascript

This is so stupid. You'll see all of these guides about compiling nginx w/ the module, etc etc -- forget all of that!

sudo apt-get install libnginx-mod-http-fancyindex

DONE. That is it.. at least for the prep. Now you can use

server {
  listen 443 ssl;
 server_name dl.site.name *.dl.site.name;

I have this script, which works well for OMDB. However, I want to modify it to also work with TMDB.

Notes:

I can sort of cobble things together, but I can't code otherwise.
This script checks for an ID (D3:D) or a title (C3:C) and optional year (B3:B)
Once all of the input data is entered (see below), boxes in A3:A are checked and those items are processed at once -- essentially in a flash, unlike with IMPORTJSON, which processes one row at a time.
I can't provide a demo sheet, since I've got API keys in the mix, but I will provide sample output for absolutely everything, so the post will be long.
This is an input sheet for a media dataset (static). Films are searched then the values are copy and pasted as values into their respective sheets. The current version uses IMPORTJSON and pulls from OMDB, TMDB, TVMaze, and also scrapes some basics from Letterboxd. IMPORTSON is very slow compared to the script below.

This is pretty hacky, but it does work well once you're in the rhythm. So far as I understand it, id3v2 is out of date and doesn't support the latest id3 tag version or something. To get around this, I'm bumping the id3 tags down to v1 when I convert the flacs.

Requirements

ffmpeg
kid3-cli
id3v2

Step 0 ‐ Are you Eligible?
