@_elena - important to coil the cables properly to avoid tangles, best neatness and for longest life of them too 😊 https://youtu.be/3uhfo8TrKQo?si=l2l-0_Q_uKXRADyt

bonne chance Elena...

@_elena now I'm tempted to pull out my own box of random cables and see what lost treasures I come across in there 😂

@_elena Using the labeled bag for cables is a game changer. It also forces me to only keep as many cables as can fit inside the bag. They also stack nicely inside a tub like that. It's great!

@_elena At least you have the cable for your label maker so you make labels for your cables.

Discovery of the day - at the bottom of my maze of cables: this #iPod Mini with a Firewire 400 charger <-> 30-pin dock connector.

I literally gasped when I saw them (both the iPod and the cable/charger).

I'm so curious to (re)discover what's on it!

@_elena it appears as if some starling or Sparrow or goldfinch has taken all your USB and HDMI cables, and turn them into their own little nest. Be aware if you see any tweets out there haha

@_elena You are cable shaming me! 🤣

@_elena Oh yes 😊 ! Love that idea of using a dymo for that. Is this plastic bags to put them in

And navidrome is so good for music, but be warned: it only gets information regarding the music if *each* file has the right metadata directly in it. So, if it's not the case, you'll have to add/manage it yourself.

@_elena This is my version of a thing I saw a while ago. It's not the prettiest, but it works wonders 🙂

> Update: I found the micro HDMI cable right away but now I feel I need to continue organizing my cables 😅

This is great, sometimes we just need the initial trigger to bring ourself to movemmouvement and action :)

@_elena I was litteraly just doing the same, even with the same label printer! 🤭

@_elena Be careful with the Dymo! It"s addictive and you can easily end up labeling EVERYTHING. 😂

so @_elena just gonna say 😊 , have you installed searxng yet 🙃

@_elena DIY old school walkman ;)

@_elena good luck sorting your usb cables. 🙏🫂

@_elena

Good Luck! 🙂🖖
