It probably isn't as user friendly as you'd want, but you can reload the playlist by firing commands at a socket. See the "JSON IPC" section in the mpv man page, and specifically the load* commands. jo¹ and socat² are

I'll note that nq's author also has a redo implementation¹. Being generally redo curious I've wondered a few times why their other projects(nq/mblaze/etc) don't use redo, but never actually asked. ¹ https:&#x

Pretty much my experience too. Every few months my distro collects up a bag of patches, then I receive a new build. Once every couple of years I get to go through a version${new}.txt help file, often receiving a few new goodies. My only r

I'm near Cambridge(UK) and the number of days where it makes a difference is low here too. The bike lane experience largely sounds similar too :/ However, in the Before Times I'd keep a spare front wheel with a winter Schwal

For those, like me, who get excited by this note that there are restrictions on the Unicode categories that are allowed, see the supported characters¹ and gory details². It is often enough to write math-y code in a usable way, but occasion

I love this puzzle collection. Especially bridges when I want a little brainteaser, and untangle which I find really relaxing for some utterly undefinable reason.

I was one of the naysayers, but I can't recall whether I thought a lack of interest or vandalism would kill it. I also recall feeling similar about OSM after having watched the founder(I think) give a talk about riding around on his b
