Now that is a valid point indeed, I don't use wireless headphones at all, but I suspect it to be pretty much unusable.
I just don't see why you attempt to apply the same principle to audio *consumption*, I didn't even get it at first — what you were talking about and why buffering might be bad.

@newt
No need to! Buffering can defeat the deficiencies even of such a sorry ass of interface as USB. But of course that wouldn't even be necessary were superior DMA-capable hardware used.

@newt
Of course it is better! Might even allow you to implement audio decompression in JS — computing power well spent 😜

@newt
Sure, everyone knows that you need modern desktop-class hardware to play audio 😂

@newt
You obviously have no experience using low processing power machines, which use USB (an utter garbage of interface 😏) for audio, networking AND storage.
Dropouts are gay and lame and whatever, buffering is amazing!

@newt
Wat is wrong with buffering? Without it you're fucked in a lot of cases: network delays, physical media spun down on detecting vibrations to prevent damage, physical media having to be re-read due to errors, etc…
And 1.25 seems to be just right to be reading FLACs on average — studio recordings are often heavily compressed/filtered and use even lower bandwidth.

@AndyGER
Don't get me wrong though, I'm not a fan of everything AI in the slightest, but I won't say that it's bad just because it has "AI" in it in this particular case — it should be good enough in a lot of cases, and in those when it's not, it should provide a good starting point. But I'm afraid that some people would start submitting descriptions generated by it as is — adding a line of warning text seems reasonable.

@AndyGER
Speaking of translation, the result would probably be very similar to attempting to translate a joke that is built on wordplay — lacking at best. Proper translation of such a joke might not exist at all, and automated one will only cause confusion.
@duco @3kh0 @mozilla

@AndyGER
Translation and describing the image are two separate tasks. Sure, if it's a photo of nature, this AI thing might do a pretty good job, better than a lot of us would be willing to put time and effort in, but if it's some humorous image, I'm afraid, it would do a very poor job — the description it would generate will have lots of unnecessary details: it simply doesn't know what to focus on.

To a point that I was able to build and use it even on my old PowerMac G5.
I might be wrong about it, but I think Node.js is no longer even supported on Big Endian PowerPC architecture — wouldn't be a problem in this particular case, but this makes openrazer more portable.

@j4n3z
This one? https://github.com/the-via/app
Didn't know about it 😅 Considering it's specifically for QMK keyboards, it definitely makes sense.
To me Node and Chrome/Electron seem too heavy of a requirement though.
openrazer is completely opensource BTW, all parts of it: kernel modules, the daemon and the Python module.

@romin
Of course not! In fact, I'm three bitter old men, who don't love anybody, in a catsuit!

You're just not in your supervillain arc… yet 😏

@m0xEE

@mntmn
Making it compatible with OpenRazer might make sense… or not. AFAIK, they have a daemon and a Python API for interacting with it. On the one hand, it would enable people to use familiar tools and things they have built on top of them — on the other, striving for compatibility at this point would probably entail a lot of work with little immediate return 🤔

To me it looks like they are just going crazy. All of them 😂

You could always unplug it and plug it back in again to fix that — but it was pissing me off as you might have other things connected, like USB storage — I had a Firewire audio card plugged into it. Just disconnecting stuff like that isn't good if you have software that is using that hardware — so it was pissing me off immensely.
This problem never got fixed 😂

@kirby @skylar
I have MacBook Pro that was one of the first laptops to get a Thunderbolt port — there was no USB-C at the time, it was a different port.
And I got an Apple Thunderbolt Display with it — also one of the first to get all that, it had everything built into it: a wired network adapter, a soundcard with speaker system (it had a subwoofer even), and of course it worked as an external display.
Sometimes on waking the machine from sleep the display didn't come back on.

@Forestofenchantment
Yeah, I know they are probably not THAT bad, especially if you compare them to the competition, but I'm just too comfy with old hardware — I'm just scared of the thought of getting something new, too many things to get used to… Like soldered-in RAM. To me even integrated audio being USB would feel weird.
