Usually PipeWire handles these situations better than PulseAudio, which is still the default audio daemon in many/most distributions. To properly support Pro Audio you have to completely switch the audio stack to JACK - which I also us

I bet most hammers (non-regulated), spray cans (lightly regulated) and guns (heavily regulated) that are sold are used for their intended purposes. You also don't see these tools manufacturers promoting or excusing their unintended usa

I’m learning Croatian as a native Portuguese speaker, and I find out while the grammar itself is easier to think coming from Portuguese, I prefer to deal with sentence construction as if thinking about it from English.

Oh, this is great! I do have this exact camera and another one that’s on the list! I’m more than happy to ditch the scrappy RTSP setup that I have to support these cheap cameras!

Not sure the Chinese taxpayer is footing the bill though - of course, it might not be net zero, there might be secondary effects, etc. A few days ago I read an article saying the Chinese utilities have a pricing structure that favors high-t

Looks like you don't know how to properly manage your team. I had a similar argument with a previous manager I had. Careerist dude started on some bullshit management-speak on measuring workers by ass-to-seat-hours while he had no idea

From my experience vibe coding, you spend a lot of time preparing documentation and baseline context for the LLM. On one of my projects, I downloaded a library’s source code locally, and asked Claude to write up a markdown file explaining d

Yeah, and while 3D printing a gun is cool and all, you can’t print bullets, so the person who is interested in printing guns is at the intersection of two hobbies: 3D printing and gun ownership. It’s a niche. Everybody else who needs a gun

You see, some Philips MBA decided to pinch 0.0001 pennies and forgo installing a red LED to warn the user the battery is drained, and a diode to allow it to run from the wall. Happy to give some profit to their competitor.

Considering all the major banks credit cards are able to be added to Apple Pay's wallet, my educated guess is if a person has an iPhone and a credit card, they are using it through Apple Pay most of the time. Even meal voucher cards ar

Yeah, I pretty much prefer to be surprised whenever the flight I’m on is scheduled on an A320neo compared to being surprised whenever a B737-Max is scheduled for my flight. That’s why I avoid flying with the airline that has a Boeing fleet
