Anyone have a guide explaining music genres

The other day someone asked what kind of music I listen to and I said frank schauthiggua, they asked what genre and I said mostly cerebral catwave. It seemed like he took it seriously or he was really good at pretending to know what that is. I at least think I made those up. His reaction made me question...

I have almost no idea what any of the more specific genre tags I see on a lot of songs even mean. Has anyone already made something like a list of genres with some examples?

Edit: Thanks everyone, I'll check those on my next break or maybe when I get home if they get on my case about headphones at work

Any immich users know how the people sorting works?

The political and gundam memes my coworkers sent me got face recognized but it won't do it for my family photos...

Edit: Changed clip model and some facial rec parameters and got... more meme faces. Some additional tweaks and I got one family member and one of my birds. It goddamn recognises bird faces.

and holy shit it recognized my hideous drivers licence pic as me.

It's actually kinda useful for sorting memes too...

Anyone have a recommended tteokbokki recipe?

restaurants put in too much stuff I don't like so I have to make it myself. Other than no seafood or seafood based ingredients, anything goes but my preferences would bias towards fairly high spicy burn and not too sweet.

I plan to try a bunch and eventually make a card for my recipe book catered to my preferences based on the findings, but AI has made the already really annoying online recipe scene so much worse so I'm hoping there are recipes someone can vouch for. I've been promised some scans from a friend's grandma's recipe box but that has to wait for his next trip back home.

Edit:

Thanks for the recommendations everyone. I got a pretty good idea of the ratios of ingredients. If I made one mistake it was scaling the pepper powder to the pre cooked stock volume instead of the final volume so it was a bit spicy for the rest of my family. And my cabbage was rotten on the inside so there was no veggies in it... Then I ate it without taking photos, but I'll be making more for sure.

Standalone scanners with ethernet jack?

Does this even exist? I have a brother mfc but trying to print anything at all will spitout a blank page and partway feed 2 more and call it a jam, exact same way every time and this also prevents scanning until it is cleared and the drum is jiggled before closing the front panel. I also have a standalone colour laser printer.

I'm not super excited about the idea of getting another mfc when I have a working printer so I'm looking for recommendations on standalone linux compatible scanners that have wired network capability, ideally with document feeder. So far I've looked at a few but I have low confidence on the linux functionality and network jack isn't even mentioned in spec sheets where I can see it in the picture.

Has anyone done diy repair on power button (not the outer plastic but the actual button on the mobo)

My power button clicks and feels normal. It doesn't work in any situation at all. I can turn on the deck from off by plugging in the cord and if it's already on but screen off I can only wait for it to die or open the shell and disconnect the battery.

This deck has: full shell swap, replaced worn cap and drifting stick with hall effect sticks, aftermarket buttons, replacement screen, aftermarket 1tb nvme, always had L1 require addititonal force after the click to work.

All mods were done at the same time and had no problems apart from L1 for enough time to finish spiderman, miles morales, 80% of FFVIIR, Act 1 of BG3 7 times, All of evoland 1 and 2 plus againnin legendary edition, both god of war and ragnarok, expedition 33 up to the snow area, both subnautica games, and a bunch of friendslop titles in between.

About a month ago power button stopped working and I haven't had the motivation to deal with it but I took it apart a little bit today, saw that the power button likely requires removing the mobo, and went back to not feeling like it.

Has anyone done a successful diy powerswitch repair? Ifixit only has instructions for the plastic piece on top, though the switch itself is probably a generic piece. I'll attempt valve if it's the only option but I don't really want to deal with mailing out the damned thing especially if its just going to get rejected and blamed on the mods.

Pulling network cable, joist along top of wall

I'm not really sure how to proceed nicely here.

I have a hole in the wall of the top floor going down into the space between floor/ceiling joists. Middle floor wall is about 2-4 inches offset and not directly under, but the joists turned out to be parallel to that wall and a joist is on top. Is there a sensible way to route the cable?
In a different house the joists went the other way and I was able to just drill up from the lower wall with the flex bit and just grab the dangling wire from a ceiling cutout and reach in between and hook it on the puller in the lower wall but I'm not sure how to handle it this time.

In the past 24 hours I have been sent links to 17 facebook videos that are sora ai clips with the floating logo edited out or blurred.

Mostly entirely unfunny bird talking videos ending in the cringiest generated laugh track, but the people sending them didn't realize they was fake even after I pointed out they still had the sora logo just blurred or pixellated. I'm so damn tired

edit: and I guess aliexpress really wants to sell me womens underwear. I probably could have taken a better screenshot...

Diy residential solar in BC canada?

Is this a thing that I could legally do myself or is there no choice but to suck it up and commit to more than the life expectancy of the panels before roi? We got two quotes last summer that were just not happening mainly due to windows and roof both bedding replacement as well. The current concrete tile is likely to be replaced with a cheaper material.

dualshock 4 mobo side socket for usb ribbon

I need a replacement for the white plastic socket that the usb/charge board plugs in to. I used hot air to pull out a drifting stick but that also heated and fell off, and of absolutely fucking course, fell into the floor air vent and went on a grand old slippy slide away.

Does anyone know the actual name for this part? Everything I have tried searching so far is apparently wrong

ID help

Saw these while looking at apartments but have no idea what they are. they were found mostly on carpet, but some were in other parts of the unit.

edit: after looking up the suggestion of carpet beetle I am fairly convinced that it is indeed what they are. I also saw a few adult beetles that look like one of the species found in photos online. thanks everyone.

Reverse emmc/microsd adapter

So I used something like these some years ago to recover data off a phone, but I was wondering if the reverse is possible in having a bga soldered adapter with a microsd slot on top. Or if PCBs can even be soldered together like that. I've never actually checked if bga chips have raised pads or something. The purpose would be for rapidly testing custom firmware for shitty old devices that were designed to be replaced without removing the emmc to flash it separately.

Companion plants

Its been a decade or two since I've had any sort of plants growing but when I was last trying to grow I was looking into companion plants. There are some that are pretty much ancient standards like beans corn and squash, but does anyone know plants that have a similar beneficial relationship with cannabis?

Is there much performance difference in ad blocking options?

I'm currently using the blocklists included with unbound in opnsense on a mini PC and I have used pihole on a pi which now operates my 3d printers instead. I haven't tried any of the other network wide options. Has anyone made any blog posts or similar detailing performance testing of different options?

I have an 8 person household with each person having at least a phone and computer and probably some consoles or something. I haven't noticed any obvious differences but whitelisting seemingly can't be done in bulk efficiently with my current setup.

We are all going to be moving in the coming months so I am revisiting different aspects of the home network and trying to figure out what can be improved and if anything is irritating enough in it's current state to tolerate a potential performance loss.

Does anyone know what to call this sort of fan optimization or have any reading material on how it works or how to design them?

I'm trying to find out what purpose this type of design serves and how they are designed but have hit a wall with knowing what to even look for.

This piece of the voron stealthburner is the only example I can think of off the top of my head but I have seen them before in some sort of fan duct or funnel thing.
