Re: [gentoo-user] CD ripper that generates song titles?

I usually use rubyripper. Like others similar software, it uses cddb to get the titles. If the CD set is unknown to cddb, you can try to rename the files with Picard, which uses the musicbrainz database and can use the file's fingerprint to find a match. It's usually very accurate. -- Emanuele

Easy to remember as Reboot Even If System Utterly Broken I remember it as the reverse of busier. A variant I read somewhere is Raising (Skinny) Elephants Is So Utterly Boring. Skinny is an extra optional sync, it doesn't hurt and makes the mnemonic funnier.

, Francisco Yeah, lots of ways to do it, there's no need of systemd. Or do people think that Linux users haven't been able to shut down or reboot their computers for the past 30 years? :D Oh, wait, maybe THAT's the reason for the long uptimes. :D :D -- Emanuele Rusconi

Ctrl-Alt-Del can be set to do what you want. I have this in my /etc/inittab: ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -P now This way Ctrl-Alt-Del calls power off instead of reboot. So to shutdown I just exit from Openbox and press Ctrl-Alt-Del. -- Emanuele Rusconi

Re: [gentoo-user] The future of linux, and Gentoo specifically now

that the distro you're using takes a direction that doesn't fit you, you look for alternatives. And that's perfectly on-topic. What's off-topic is to figure out if the damn buttons could actually be moved or not. -- Emanuele Rusconi
