got a second copy of my music library finished finally
<kris_>
compressed from lossless flac to 128kbps opus to store on my phone

why exacly opus, as opposed to just mp3? just curious
<sad_plan>
and why 128kbps instead of 320? the difference is noticable imo. maybe not with cheap earplugs though
<kris_>
yeah the difference absolutely is notable but with opus 128kbps is supposed to be transparent and it's VBR
<kris_>
it's not a consistent 128, it shoots above and below that "as it needs to"
<kris_>
however that works
<kris_>
it sounds fine, my lossless music is for at home
<kris_>
also opus is CRAZY good with file size, i went from 226GiB of flacs to 31.7GiB of 128k opus
solaare has joined #kisslinux
<sad_plan>
I see. thats quite a lot of space saving to say the least
<kris_>
supposedly mp3s are transparent at 192kbps but i dont exactly buy that
<kris_>
ive blind tested 320kbps vs lossless successfully many times
<kris_>
these opus files sound fine on my airpod pros but airpod pros are the epitome of shit audio quality

ive come to hate everything apple for the most part. people swear by these shitty earbuds, for a high price, and terrible quality. all of this apple stuff is beyond me tbqh..
<sad_plan>
in any case, if youre happy about the results, I wont argue :p
<kris_>
someone got them for me in like 2018 or something, i didn't purchase these on purpose
<kris_>
for what they are, they're ok
<kris_>
it is convenient to have wireless earbuds while working out / running / etc
<sad_plan>
i mostly run mp3, but I do got some flacs, but I stopped using flac because it took so damn much space on my phone...
<sad_plan>
I see. I have some wireless from jabra, and theyre decent enough for me. outside of that, I usually use some shitty jbs buds instead. but phones nowdays doesnt have a aux anymore :(
<kris_>
i hate to say this, but buy an apple usbc -> 3.5mm dongle
<kris_>
it's a genuinely good DAC
<kris_>
and then like $35 IEMs and you have endgame audio if you dont mind wires
<sad_plan>
so either I have to get an adopter, which from looking around seems iffy at times, oor wireless.. pick your poison kinda..
<sad_plan>
yeah youve mentioned that iirc. lol
<kris_>
and yeah my flac library is way too big to fit on my phone
<sad_plan>
I would infact prefer wires, as opposed to wireless really. or atleast i did. havent really used wires since I go my pixel 6a..
<kris_>
and i would just use my jellyfin server but my unis network is so awful that i can't reliably stream 128kbps :p
<sad_plan>
I get that. I had 150+Gb on my phone aswell, although I had to shrink it by deleting garbage songs aswell. lean up my songs basically..
<sad_plan>
is it that terrible? fr?
<kris_>
1mbps down on a good day
<sad_plan>
damn
<sad_plan>
im getting frustrated with ii and its clients. I was hoping I could use one of those mentioned on suckless' website, but I cant get any of those ive tried to work properly...
worf1337 has quit [Quit: Bye]
<kris_>
i think mid uses ii and some other stuff to go with it
<kris_>
i don't see them here right now though sadly
worf1337 has joined #kisslinux
<sad_plan>
yeah, mids mentioned he uses ii, I checked to see if he had some script for it, but didnt see anything. he kept insisting he just used tee alone, but that seems highly cumbersome tbh...
<kris_>
weechat is the happiest ive been with irc
<sad_plan>
yeah weechat works for sure. I was happy with senpai aswell when I was using pico.sh's bouncer. although I was also happy with catgirl, but now im using 3 server all of a sudden.. so catgirl is now less convinient

SDF is being wonky again qwq
<midfavila>
also sad_plan i've been looking at that beepberry *thing* again for the past few days and considering the pricepoint i might get one once it restocks
<midfavila>
it'll probably be easier to get a working deliverable targeting a rasp pi device than the r01 in my uconsole
<midfavila>
plus the beepberry is much more compact
<midfavila>
i can sort of shove the uconsole in my pocket but it's really not ideal, and even i'm not enough of a dork to clip it to my belt
<midfavila>
tbqh though i'm really bored of pi stuff...
<midfavila>
it's cool to see what people do, don't get me wrong, and the pi has a lot of great applications
<midfavila>
qualifying statements and all
<midfavila>
that said, a lot of projects seem to boil down to... just putting the pi in another sort of case?
<midfavila>
it would be nice to see more hardware diversity with a modicum of actual support

also sad_plan yeah i did end up ordering new ones straight from mnt, it's just really expensive to get that particular model shipped to canada
<midfavila>
not something anyone can do anything about aside from ups themselves, but still
<midfavila>
i'll probably try and replace them with more generic hardware store torque hinges when i redo the chassis for mine
<midfavila>
sugatsune has some really nice hinges that are still widely available and fairly cheap
<midfavila>
20-30CAD for a pair with shipping
<midfavila>
man i miss my reform already qwq
<sad_plan>
midfavila: yeah, the maker is on a break it seems. have no clue when he'll get back into making more of them really. I also like the formfactor. its less clunky than the uconsole if anything
<sad_plan>
also, in regards to projects just spping pi's into different cases, youre absolutely correct. pi's are defacto standard at this point really
<sad_plan>
also, have clockwork not gpled their stuff? making things difficult for other creators? or whats really the deal?
<midfavila>
clockwork's hardware is under CERN iirc and they've modified linux and uboot iirc to get them to work with the device
<midfavila>
the cad files and BoM aren't available, nor is the source code
<midfavila>
or even their patches
<midfavila>
the formfactor is definitely nice though
<midfavila>
as is the pricepoint
<midfavila>
80$ for a little handheld linux machine is great
<midfavila>
even if it's fairly weak by most standards it's more than enough for the type of stuff i would be using it for
<midfavila>
honestly it'd be pretty comparable to the r01 i think
<midfavila>
i like the uconsole using 18650 cells since most of my stuff uses 18650s so everything is interchangeable but the keyboard is hard to thumb-type on quickly because of the tackyness of the keys, and again, the lack of sources for things makes it hard to work on
<midfavila>
i don't like having to dissect the stock image using dd to graft together a new image
zlg has joined #kisslinux
<sad_plan>
hm, I see. theyve shouldve open sourced it though. maybe they will in the future
<sad_plan>
yeah 18650 batteries is nice. I dont currently have any devices using it though. but maybe in the future

midfavila: you wouldnt have a solution for tls/ssl using ii? the ii usage page lists inetd or stunnel as examples, but afaik, neither is compatible with bearssl, or libtls-bearssl
<sad_plan>
nor is the ssl/tls patches for that matter
<sad_plan>
running irc, or rather anything really without tls/ssl seems iffy to me
<sad_plan>
also, midfavila bearssl actually recieved some commits somewhat recently. nothing large, but still. which is nice if you ask me
<sad_plan>
still no tls-1.3 though...
<midfavila>
patch stunnel
<midfavila>
to use libtls
<midfavila>
then use mcf's libtls-bearssl
<midfavila>
ez
<midfavila>
also yes they need to
<midfavila>
it's marketed as open hardware
<midfavila>
i bought it bc of that
<midfavila>
that's false advertising on their part
<midfavila>
also also, yes, the 18650s are nice
<midfavila>
my laptop, uconsole, flashlight, headlamp, lantern, etc all use 18650 cells
<midfavila>
if i can move all my charging interfaces over to usb-c that means everything will use the same cables and cells
<midfavila>
then once i have the cm4 carriers for my uconsole and laptop, they'll share SoM formats
<midfavila>
and if I can figure out how to get a mars-v in the reform, they'll both be riscv machines
<midfavila>
then it's a matter of building up a pioneer as my desktop and all my main machines will be riscv and (theoretically) open hardware and source
<midfavila>
pinenote for docs, probably a supernote nomad or remarkable move for notes otg, tanagara for music
<midfavila>
wiphone for calls
<midfavila>
comfytown
<midfavila>
population me
<sad_plan>
I would if I knew how :') on another note, the server has openssl, so technically I wouldnt need to do it. just patch ii to use ssl/tls and be done with it. but I dont want that. I would in the future have my own server running my oasis/kiss fork instead :p
<sad_plan>
false advertisements is terrible.. is people making noice about it though? or is it going by somewhat silently?
<sad_plan>
neat use of those cells. ive been thinking about getting a battery bank using 18650 cells, but I dont currently have much use for it...
<sad_plan>
sounds like a decent plan imo. I also noticed minute is putting in more work on the kinex soc for the reform
<sad_plan>
midfavila: also, it seems s6-networking supports bearssl, which can be used to proxy ii
<midfavila>
dunno, tqh
<midfavila>
tbqh
<midfavila>
batterybank is useful in general
<midfavila>
i should post pics of my gear at some point
<midfavila>
and yeah people have complained but that doesn't do anything lol
<midfavila>
everyone's abandoned the 01/04/06 in favour of the cm4
<midfavila>
as usual i blame reddit
<midfavila>
"GUYS CHECK OUT MY WHOLESOME CHUNGUS HECKIN *SOYBERDECK*!!! IT HAS ALL MY MARVEL MOVIES ON IT ON i3!!!"
<sad_plan>
I supopse so, but I only have my phone to charge with it. Ive found one which was capable of housing 21 18650 batteries. which is just absurd really.
<sad_plan>
lol, reddit isnt always at fault, but I get it. reddit gets lots of traffic, and if people ignore the rest, the other chips kinda goes away silently
<sad_plan>
lol, soyberdeck
<midfavila>
any excuse to shit on reddit is a valid one
<sad_plan>
kinda reminds me of eta prime, which I actually do find somewhat entertaning, but its always about the raw numbers and power
<sad_plan>
touche
<midfavila>
ye
<midfavila>
tbh idon't actually use my batbank
<midfavila>
it's there for emergencies
<sad_plan>
holy shit, the 21x18650 bank can house 72000mAh. lol
<sad_plan>
its probably garbage quality, but still
<midfavila>
if i have to touch most of my stuff, something has gone very wrong
<sad_plan>
wtf, description says 'please allow 5-10mm differences' how on earth can you actually manager to measure a whole 10mm wrong on a battery bank? are they drunk at work?
