PipeWire and fixing the Linux Video Capture stack | Christian F.K. Schaller (blogs.gnome.org)

Some great insight on – found while trying to find out what causes audio crackling and high CPU load. It may be a bug but I still think I’m doing something wrong here.

Also very curious about the V4L2 proposals. That is a very important daily driver of mine. Especially the loopback device. Any improvements on this are in theory great.

Say Cheese?

You all can stop with the “shocked face” crap on preview pictures. By now I’ve trained my brain to file such videos as click-bait or _low_ quality. That’s right, fingers don’t even twitch any more. No more clicks gonna happen. Even for channels followed.

Shadowrun Returns by Thomas HochsteinThomas Hochstein (Netz - Rettung - Recht)
Ein CRPG im Shadowrun-Universum. Nichts besonderes, aber ein netter Zeitvertreib.

Zur Story möchte ich noch anmerken dass die im Vergleich zu den anderen Teilen eher mager ist. Man merkt bei den Nachfolgern doch eine deutliche Steigerung bei der Qualität der Erzählung 🙂

Mir haben die jedenfalls viel Spaß gemacht und ich werde bei Gelegenheit bestimmt noch einmal zu der Reihe zurück kehren.

Yesterday I noticed that my kids crossed the street from behind the school bus they just left without looking.

In the evening I prepared a model of the situation with toys and asked them if they can see the “toy children” from various angles approaching from behind the bus and whenever they said no I drove over the miniatures with another car yelling “Bam, you’re dead”.

I guess that left quite an impression. Especially the little one, after examining the “school bus” model further (a Volkswagen Samba van), went off to build a complete road system with paper and tape in his room and “trained” the rest of the evening how to cross the street – and even some more in the morning after breakfast.

I’m totally going to wait at the kitchen window this afternoon again to see how they’ll do this time.
