evil... possibly aeville
Oct. 18th, 2003 04:57 amWhat's the real reason we all have home computers? Of course pr0n, but also to play all those tunes. So guess what Red Hat 9 does after I've wasted an hour setting up my music directories? Tell me it doesn't support mp3. Flying artificial fuq it doesn't.
I wound up digging around, grabbing some useful software. There's an 'apt' for RPMs, which in non-geek means I can name a piece of software I want and apt will find it and all the other pieces of software it depends on, then install them all. 'apt' was designed for a different distribution of Linux, so this makes me ecstatic.
Then I found out a friend of mine had some mp3 stacks for me to flip through. I found some evil stuff from the Eighties. Remember the tune "Pac-Man Fever"? It's as evil as it always was.
Perhaps you're saying, "Dante! No! You didn't grab a copy of a novelty song that wasn't even enjoyable when it came out, let alone a month later when it was embarrassing to acknowledge it existed?" Ummmm... call it heat of the moment. (Speaking of which: that song by Asia was there as well, but I left it there. I do not find myself in '82.)
As I get older, I find my tolerance for crappy music has increased in proportion to my skill in dissecting it. John Mayer, for example.
I'm off to bed. Five am is way too late.
-why does my health insurance company think I had an accident? Dante
