T_X<p>I have to say, I'm getting more comfortable with <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>systemd</span></a> services. And I find it fascinating how with its templates and powerful dependency feature I could achieve some wild, very dynamic stacking of <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://floss.social/@gstreamer" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>gstreamer</span></a></span>, <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@pipewire" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>pipewire</span></a></span>, <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/mpd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mpd</span></a>, <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/mpv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mpv</span></a> and <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/SAP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SAP</span></a> / <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/RFC2974" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RFC2974</span></a> with only a few lines for various systemd services. So for instance a <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/multicast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>multicast</span></a> SAP announcement of <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://chaos.social/@schenklradio" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>schenklradio</span></a></span> will only appear if something plays on that pipewire device, which only happens if that radio is on air and reachable.</p>
