TIL: Backslash overrides alias - wow!

Thanks, mathfailure - this genuinely improves my life!

Yo, thanks for the throwback [1] XD

Compression with a side chain also has some very interesting use cases like ducking ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ducking )

Or in short (as every modern producer already knows): Put a limiter on that!

Actually, put a limiter everywhere - if you work in software, they're real cheap..

Got you covered. All sfw, just the filenames are a bit offensive, if you speak dutch. It's like that "two naked tits/boobies" (the birds) joke and others.

I suppose still not ready to be a daily driver to replace my normal phone?

I'd say that depends on your definition of daily driver and/or how much compromises you're willing to take. I occasionally see members at my larger hackerspace running around with those or other seemingly "unfit" hardware and not complain too much about it ;)

Aaah, Ludology! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_studies

Iirc it does exactly that and all local in your browser.

It is very good for a quick check if this-and-that (web)app is stupid or if your whole browser audio setup is borked.

I have the "non-usb-version" (i think it has some other differences as well) of it (NT1A) and that is a very good price/quality ratio, imho. Doesn't sound like a Telefunken but still very usable: it doesn't pick up much else than it should, the SNR is very high and the input sensitivity is quite linear and straight. Very happy with that one. The accessories are quite high quality, too and the pricetag of 180 EUR is quite acceptable.

In another note: The docker-compose file builds the frontend live on the docker container. I've built similar technology a few years ago and am totally trying to get rid of this kind-of "on-premises" build process, as imho it is WAY to fault-prone.

Interesting to see this project pull it through anyway.

They also begin with updating a lot of deb-dependencies. I imagine this to be hellishly difficult to maintain. Props for even trying!

I've decided (a few years ago) that if i'll ever have to upgrade the packaging for my stuff, i'm going to do it with nix (and only that - sorry other os users, you'll have to install nix - actually: not sorry!). I was in (distro) packaging way too deep and decided that my limited time in this world doesn't allow for that kind of crap, anymore.

The blatant mess that ensued in the meantime (i.e. last few years) proves me right, imho.

Packaging and linting are two very different topics. Just because someone does A very well, doesn't mean they have any clue about B.

Trouble with CSS is still this: https://media.giphy.com/media/yYSSBtDgbbRzq/giphy.gif (Peter Griffin trying CSS)

And centering a div can still be very hard depending on the circumstances.

Well, that is.. unlikely. With a bigger CPU, you'll need to add a fan to the cooler, as well. And your mainboard/ram/gpu/ssds generate a lot of unwanted heat, too.

Might work for extremely energy efficient systems, though.

It's always a little minigame of not activating too much but still getting a working site.

Fishy things get painted red, hopefully good things get painted green - reload and try again, if it didn't work.

I sure hope, some maintainers pop up and keep this thing alive!

They could offer very customized versions made in an Inconel 3d printer.. Wonder if that (economically & technologically - is inconel seawater safe??) really makes sense, though.

Uh, plastic props for my harbour-pusher come in at lousy 45 bucks. Sometimes, i'm so happy to own a smol boat.

Hah. Jokes on you! I'll gladly try using a 3D printed version of this on my 600W angry-pixie-harbour-pusher - which they only sell overpriced plastic props for, anyway ;D

Btw.: Worst thing: ride backwards and you'll have to tighten the mounting screw or risk loss of prop. Best thing: Rudder survived hard prop contact with just a few scratches on the outer coat \o/

Sailor in me doesn't give a shite, i just want more battery life out of the smol-angry-pixie-harbour-pusher.

Here, have some pics, if you wondered, too: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=loopwing+windmill&iax=images&ia=im...

("Aaaah, those ones! Yeah, sure!")

You're way not alone. Love those ugly-brown quiet-machines. Still, they're probably looking at this and think "Nah, our optimizations are way cheaper to manufacture and wholly sufficient" (because they are :)

Which is exactly what i'm looking at, too. F** any noise improvements.

With the smol angry-pixie-driven (very quiet!) harbour pusher, i'm just looking at ways to not use up too many angry pixies. This one looks promising and can be 3D printed. Original props for that one come in plastic only, anyway, which is really good! Might've accidentally killed my rudder this year, otherwise.

Welp, as someone else here pointed out, just print it, then: https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=Sharrow

Which is what i'm going to try next year - for my smol electrical harbour pusher.

If you have one of these fancy inconel printers that spacex uses, you could even print a steel version. And quite big ones, too.

Edit, to clarify: i refer here to 3D printed boat props, not for copters.

I'm considering this as well. I have an electrical outboard engine on my 24". 600W is way less stressing on the material than even small combustion engines.

I'll maybe try a 3D printed one next year. According to thingiverse, folks already successfully use printed props and the sharrow-design is there, as well, just need to adapt the mount and make sure the printer is up to it (i.e. convert from PLA to ABS, may have to get a new nozzle)

I'd wager to say that on most civilian vessels, the engine noise is far louder than what the prop could generate. I'm happily using a 600W outboard electrical - while it would be different than with a combustion engine, i don't think it can get much quieter even with better prop-design. It's a blessing! Almost like sailing the boat, i.e. not much louder than a gust of wind.

Energy efficience on the other hand.. It is driven by a fairly average car battery, so every little Watt saved helps keep the drinks cooled.

Aah, i think i see a pattern here, now. Is the answer maybe: All three?

Yes, yes, i'd like to solve: A, B and C!

Yes. But you'll have to learn a bit or two to make use of the more advanced stuff. It is indeed a great learning tool, as it offers almost everything you need to delve in.

There's good lectures out there, explaining the things you might not yet know and most of it is fun stuff to learn. Very much worth your time & effort. Hope you're fine with some advanced math concepts, though!

There's still the thing with donations and the illusion of getting rich that comes with it. Also: sunken cost fallacy + "this is MY baby".

Does micropython not allow typing? That would be odd. I mean, i see how running it with mypy on an esp32 does not work, but the hints can be evaluated on the dev-platform and used by the developer and his IDE/Linter/whatever.

For a fully reproducible and backed up build, you will need to print out the 3rd (and 4th and so on!) party stuff as well :(

Good luck with anything that has a "node_modules" folder ;) Please do not deforest earth for that.
