Not in my case at least — my making fun of your numerous alts is always friendly.

In your case it might be different — you might have to make a virtual ALSA plug to collect input and output from different cards, so that Firefox would use it, but I didn't have to do any of that.
@dcc
Yes, man, I do 😁 In my case, although it's the same physical device, it's two cards in ALSA terms: one of them has all the analog inputs and outputs, the other one has different channel configurations for HDMI output. As in my case both the mic and the built-in speaker (and line output) are on the same ALSA card, I only have to set it the default and it just works.
@iska
I still think you're confusing allocated virtual memory for actual RAM used by the process — although I've never seen Alacritty use a gigabyte of either.
Some of these terminals kept running for weeks (just look at that CPU time) and it's "terminal-heavy" software running inside those: gomuks, tut, vim — not just shell. 20 megabytes? Perfectly fine by me!

Why smear it with shit because it doesn't support exact window placement which makes using your commercial CAD uncomfortable if I don't need any of that.
If it just doesn't work for you — fine, but why would I avoid things implemented in Rust or Wayland if they suit me perfectly? 🤷
@nik @scathach
@newt
My patched st doesn't have all that, but it has stuff that's actually useful today: support for colour emojis that isn't messy and sixel graphics which makes w3m suitable for lightweight web browsing — urxvt doesn't, why would I prefer it? It seems to me that some go above and beyond to use some software just because it's old. Take Wayland, if your video doesn't work well — it's a solid reason not to use it, but on my hardware it works perfectly.

> I'd probably continue with urxvt
I have a couple of very old ThinkPads lacking hardware EGL support and I'm using Xorg with st on them — no problem. I don't see the point in sticking with urxvt — it might seem minimal to some, but it isn't, in fact it has a bunch of legacy shit to make it compatible with some stuff from the 70s.

> Rust and GPU use aren't selling points, they are mostly irrelevant technical details
They sure aren't selling points, but they also aren't "Rust… 🤮 meh, won't use" for me — that is what I mean. The term having AI assistant is sure superflurous, the fact that it's in Rust and has GPU acceleration is… Does it work well? Fine, okay!
@nik @scathach
@dcc
Well, yeah, in my case it's the same card — as it's a laptop and it's all integrated audio, if that's not your case, yeah, it might be complicated, you might have to make a pcm plug that would use input from one device and output of the other, but in my case — I didn't have to do any of that.
@dcc
Just checked it here: https://www.onlinemictest.com/
It works 🤷
> and send the alsa config
Too lazy to clean it up, I swear to you, there's nothing of interest that is mic specific in there.
@dcc
Does arecord produce audible results for you? If so, it should also work in FF with apulse.
The only thing that comes to mind, there are model-specific fixed for snd-hda-audio.
This HP laptop, I'm typing this on, is pretty well supported it even has a LED to indicate whether mic is muted or not, but I have to pass "model=hp-led" to snd-hda-intel for it to work, maybe you need something like that too.
@dcc
> What does your asound look like?
Oh, it's complicated, but it's mostly related to switching to HDMI output, I did nothing special for the mic to work.
I've only tried it with the built-in mic as I only use it for video calls, I have my macs for advanced audio, but I'm pretty sure external one would work too.
@splitshockvirus
Maybe you should 😏
I mean especially if you're working out regularly.
@dcc
Yeah, I haven't tried this in months, but it used to work.
I stopped updating FF circa 124, they might've messed something up again, check this first, but input definitely worked with apulse.

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
