If I could, I honestly wouldn’t mind just smoking some just to say I’ve actually done it. Closest I got was when I accidentally ate a weed treat without knowing it.
Can’t for health reasons. The pharmacists at the INR clinic I go to says it will mess with my INR and could cause either an increased risk of my blood either thinning out or thickening, which I cannot remember which it will impact.
It’s fine. I’ve done it a few times in my college days. I also had a panic attack one time after smoking some, which was probably the scariest moment of my life even if logically I knew what was going on. For me personally, it never effected me a whole lot. My memory was worse during the period I was high, but I never felt partifuclalry euphoric, just relaxed. If all you want to do is sit around a chill, it’s pretty nice. It’s not anything I feel the need to have though, but I would like for it to be legal to have the option if I want to.
How do you organize it? I went back to a $5/mo student Spotify subscription just so I didn’t have to sift through that much data and manually build playlists in Plexamp.
www.reddit.com/r/musichoarder is a community of folks who are interested in that problem of organizing large amounts of music.
As for me, I’ll download like 80 gigs of music, mostly playlists off qobuz, then match it all with albums and tag it using musicbrainz picard, then dedupe it against my collection with dupeguru, then normalize the volume using rsgain. I use Logitech Meda Server to play them. I rate songs with a star rating, with the RatingsLight LMS plugin. I listen to all my unrated songs on shuffle, rate them and put them in playlists. I’ll listen to playlists based on mood, genre, country, or star rating. I have various bash scripts to process playlists.
It’s really manual. If i wanted to, I could throw everything in the same playlist when i download a big tranche of music of the same type. Another neat tool is soundiiz, which enables one to move playlists between spotify, qobuz, deezer, and m3us. So you could export a playlist out of spotify, import it to qobuz, run qobuz-dl against it, and add all your new flacs to your local copy of the playlist. Soundiiz is the only thing i had to pay for, $4.
My music server’s on a pcie ssd so operations don’t take too long. I have a backup on a NAS and I mailed a second backup to a friend. Between me and my girlfriend we have 2tb of music.
I name files ~/Music/MyMusic/artist/album/track number - track title.flac I have playlists at the root directory with relative paths, so it’s intact copying to a Digital audio player. I convert everything to Opus to fit a copy on my phone.
