Thank you. After thinking about it overnight, I realized I asked a wrong question. Your answer still helps greatly and get me more than half way to satiate my curiosity.
Tolerance grade and example objects that require different grade/minimum pi accuracy is what I was looking for.

TIL there is a closer approximation than 22/7

Thank you, I already skimmed through that article before posting. Maybe I failed to put my question into words properly.

I want examples similar to pool/fence circumference in the article. Along the line of “We’re building x, and this is the worst rounding we can go, one fewer digit and it will be off by y”

Flac is a low bar for any music player though. I don’t know whether itunes support it yet, don’t care.

I’m sure Rhythmbox works well for you and that is great. But I also need some niche features which might not be in it.

Mostly conversion and forensic thing.
ape tak tta format, bit compare, audio checksum, mass-tag/batch-tag, replaygain, custom playlist columns, statistic driven field. Don’t know what else until I try and find it’s missing.

I’m also sure I can get all those and more in different cli tool if I want but getting them in one software is very convenient.

After a quick look, DeaDBeeF might have most of what I want.

• Sort and group the tracks in any order you wish, using advanced Title Formatting scripting, compatible with Foobar2000

Got the date wrong, last time I tried it was 2018. Lot of new features added since then.

What if I use foobar and will not settle for anything less?
I have not fully moved to linux yet. Last time I tried it through wine back in 2020 it ran like shit. Deadbeef did not have feature parity either. Wonder how good is it now.

There is a trend line of the amount of shit you need to do to get linux to do things you want.
There is a trend line of the amount of shit you need to do to stop windows from doing things you don’t want.

Those two lines have crossed quite a while ago.

I’d love myself a hole to go in right now

maybe I should have use wojak :|

I mean… if your room have a lot of stuff then it might take a while to find the source, if you aren’t being pranked. But random screws on your desk will never be as horrifying as random maggots on your desk.

War Thunder §Classified documents leaks

I try not to mess with my my current windows desktop setup too much if I don’t have to (mission critical). It’s not on VM.
Would love to do it with LUKS/EXT4 if possible but it’s not supported on windows (am I correct?)

If I use VC then I have to install it on both win and linux and also any additional machine I intend to decrypt with, that’s quite unwieldy compare to LUKS. I also have lobotomized my current install to cripple spying and broke it to the point it can not update to support wsl.

Seems like bitlocker is a proper solution for the moment. Or just do two partitions (maybe two drives), encrypt one with LUKS, wipe everything unencrypted when done using it.

I’m still a bit confused with veracrypt… The docs make it sounds like vc use its own format.
Can the drive be prepared with LUKS and then decrypt in windows with veracrypt? If not, I might just use bitlocker until I drop windows.

That, I didn’t think of. Still… I will eventually have to do it the linux way, might as well learn and familiarize with it now.

Forgot to mention that it will be quite a while before I can drop windows completely but for sure I’m not upgrading or doing another windows install.
