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.

If you've just open Blender for the first time and then you've tried to... do things.
Maybe, trying to see how far you can go... without getting help. [laugh]
You might have discovered... you need help immediately.

-- some donut guy


This is janky but will do the best I can. Maybe someone way smarter than me can find a more efficient way to do it.

I'm doing this demo on some park with Butt in Germany (OSM)
Blend file
Layout window
Node setup

Limitation
Line of sight is made from the 'origin' of (building) geometry (one-to-many).

I have tried the same method but in reverse and combine lines of sight (many-to-many) and iterate through them but can not get any result, 'position node' output is changed based on whatever you are using with it and two sets of point cloud hurts my head.

However, with this node setup if you model each room as separated object, it will still work but at room level instead of building level. Wowowee itsa very nice. Just no way to quickly get an ID that I know of.

Process

  1. Import GIS stuff as usual
  2. You MUST set the origin of each object to its own geometry (orange dot must stay in the geometry) as GIS plugin will set origin as world center 0,0,0 and that will break stuff.
  3. Any object that will potentially obstruct the view must be put inside a flat one-level collection.
    3.1 Buildings to analyze can be put in any collection or not at all.
    3.2 If any potentially obstructing object is also an analyzing target from (3.1), it should be duplicate-link with Alt+D then ESC and put in the obstruction collection.
  4. View target e.g. park, lake, must have face, can not be just curves, edges, vertices.
  5. Add geometry node modifier to any buildings you want analyzed.
    5.1 Browse for a node named 'visibility' I already set up.
    5.2 Select target.
    5.3 Set ray length (meter) long enough to reach your target.
    5.4 Select any other buildings you want analyzed, with copy source in yellow, paste target in orange hilight. Ctrl+L to copy geo-node modifier to all of them.
  6. Open spreadsheet window and select a unit to see visibility value.

EDIT: I forget to expose obstruction selector, you can select it inside geometry node window. I also got an idea for V2 which may solve issue of getting IDs list. Will try again tomorrow.

HAPPY ACCIDENT: you can also stack the modifier and select another target, spreadsheet will show another line of visibility attribute for each additional target in the stack.

Be careful though, too much and blender might crash.


I don't recommend watching/doing the whole donut series, but you still need some familiarity to get around and understand more complex part of blender that other tutorials may teach you :|

Maybe you can cobble together something even better from these tutorial channels. Erindale, Chris P

Yep... this is tough. After reading through another of your comment, I'm not sure if geometry node alone can handle this.

The answer/solution will depends on how accurate or detailed you want for the result.
If you count any single point on a building that can see any amount of a park as a 'pass', that will be easy. But when you start to dice them down to each floor or room unit, then it will be a bit harder. If you also want to check how much of the park you can see from certain room too, it will be even harder. If you want to list all that, I think you will have to write python code. The complexity will scale with amount of rooms, buildings, parks.

If the amount of objects that you considered 'lit up' is possible to select and move into another collection by hand in reasonable time, then maybe geo node is enough. From your result, how many are those?

Spreadsheet window (geometry node workspace) can list vertices/edges/faces and other things with custom attribute they have (in this case, see a park or not see a park). It can also list name of object in a collection but I'm not sure if it can also display extra data alongside it though, it's not the right tool for the job.

Geometry node with raycast
EDIT: Removed rough description

After some fiddling... I have ran into a problem of how to raycast from many-to-many points.
Currently stuck to either boolean visible or not visible. In real life you would want a some form of how much you see it (float value).
Will get there eventually, this is a nice exercise.

EDIT again: Update with new top level comment

For quick overview of frameworks... there is Brad Traversy and Jeff Delaney (Fireship)

Shop around and pick a few to try out then dive down when you finally find a framework you like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

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.

WTF he won???
I thought it ended in some kind of settlement. I hope the fight did not financially damage the diver too much, still sucks.

A sane person would have learn the lesson after cave diver case.
