    Ooh ooh, I know this one!

    You could run Mopidy, which has support for Subsonic libraries. You could also run plain MPD.

    Whatever you decide to go with can then be connected to Snapcast, which is a server/client setup for streaming audio from a source to multiple client endpoints (in this case your workshop, phone, PC, etc).

    On devices that can run the client software, like a desktop or phone, you just run the Snapcast client software.

    To connect stereo/AVR systems to Snapcast, you can build a streaming endpoint with a Raspberry Pi ZeroW with a Pirate Audio hat, or the version without the screen, and set up the Snapcast client software on it, and then connect it to your stereo system.

    If you have a 3D printer, you could optionally print out a case for the client devices.

    This is my setup, right down to using Navidrome as the Subsonic server and I couldn’t love it more!




  • The thing that is different about Congress is that Reps and Senators are free to vote with or against the rest of their party without any repercussions. We don’t have three line whips or anything like that here, so the party system isn’t as powerful. This is why Manchin could go against the Democratic Party agenda so frequently and the Democratic leadership couldn’t do anything about it.

    So in theory these Reps could stay Republican and vote with the Democrats, or go independent/libertarian/etc if they really want to make a break with the Republican label. Staying or changing parties really doesn’t matter except in how it defines the majority party in each house, and also practically as to what legislation is likely to get brought to a vote per the Hastert Rule or the Standing Rules of the Senate.

    So this all can go to explain why they’re not changing parties or who they caucus with. It still leaves the question of why they’re choosing to leave rather than remain and affect change from within. Answer: They don’t care about the country or the party. They were here for power, the lobbying money, the post politics sinecures, etc. Now that all of that is gone, they have decided to cut and run. They are abandoning ship now in the hopes that they can get the best life raft.





  • Like another commenter said, Mopidy can do it all in one instance. It works, but I personally find its integration with MPD clients to be a bit clunky so I don’t use it all that much.

    Personally I use Snapcast as an endpoint, plain MPD for local files, and navidrome for remote access to my library.

    Snapcast supports Spotify endpoints, so I just switch to my Spotify stream when I want to listen to Spotify and to my MPD stream when I want to listen to local stuff.

    This is more of an ecosystem than a single solution though, so it may not be what you’re looking for.
