hiya! #shotonlibrem5

@AmpBenzScientist @lupyuen To be fair, PocketCHIP had a 480x272 display and the same GPU as the PinePhone (with fewer cores though). Even Neo Freerunner was fast in QVGA mode.

@gnarf @fasterthanlime @sdr_pod > a 768kHz DAC

DAC for audiophile dolphins?? 🤔 🐬

@thejackimonster @linmob @Blort @martijnbraam It's certainly optimized for quality rather than performance ;)

For the phone use-case, I see it as a stop-gap. I used darktable because it was there; that's what I used for manual RAW handling so I knew how to make it output something nice. I bet you could write a much more performant and suited-for-mobile processing pipeline with good enough results, but that's a bit more involved than some UIs and glues 😜

@thejackimonster @linmob @Blort @martijnbraam darktable uses OpenCL when available.

@linmob @Blort @martijnbraam BTW. Doing what Glowup does directly from Millipixels/Megapixels is literally a one-liner which you can put there without even recompiling anything. You'll just have to deal with >30 seconds of 100% CPU usage and plenty of RAM being eaten each time you shoot a photo, which personally I don't find to be a very appealing idea 😂

@linmob @Blort @martijnbraam Martijn also mentioned remote postprocessing some time ago, which makes sense too - my laptop does in 4 seconds what my phone does in 30.

The hard parts are there, what's left is some simple glue. I'm trying to encourage people to do this kind of nice entry-level tasks. Writing glowup.py took me just a few hours of fiddling with libadwaita in total, which would be better done by someone who'd like to learn this stuff and actually take it somewhere further.

@hello_fellow_humans It will run just the same way, but for its results to make sense you'd have to prepare a Lensfun calibration profile for the PinePhone camera and likely adjust the sidecar file a bit.

The bird-thoughts are chirping that something beautiful is coming soon to Steam and @itchio. #gamedev #art #mastoart #artbook #indiegame #indiedev #steam #itch #itchio @holypangolin https://store.steampowered.com/app/3172920/The_Art_and_Secrets_of_Karambola/

@rasumi Tap and hold the bottom bar.

There used to be a clearly visible button there which I adored, but people wanted the bar to be thin, UX be damned 😝

@rasumi This has been changed two months ago already: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/merge_requests/568

And what do you mean by "there seems to be no option to manually close [the keyboard]"? It was there since the very beginning.

@ambitiousslab (I have to admit that it's partially my own fault; I have reworked L5 UCM profiles from the ground up long time ago, but neglected upstreaming them and now there are flawed profiles in upstream repos ☹️)

@ambitiousslab It's probably PipeWire. AFAIK nobody adjusted the audio pipeline to work there with echo cancellation and noise reduction yet. I wouldn't consider it suitable for phone use until that happens. It's not rocket science, PipeWire is actually more flexible than PulseAudio for this kind of stuff, but... someone has to do it. Switching back to PulseAudio and reproducing the config from PureOS (including ALSA UCM profiles) would likely give you much better experience right now.

@ambitiousslab @urheber > either one side can’t hear the other, or the audio quality is too quiet, or not very good

Which OS are you using? I haven't had call audio issues for ages on PureOS (I'm not a heavy caller though 😜)

@timonsku @mntmn @uint8_t @whitequark @fasterthanlime ChatGPT helped me once. I asked it about doing something in the PDF syntax. I could then completely ignore the nonsense it spewed, but use the terminology it used to find the relevant part of spec instead of Adobe Acrobat tutorials that search engines were very stubbornly providing me with 😜
