Oh Brother Where Art Thou is a good one.

I'm rooting for you, Canada. The US needs to reap the consequences of what we've sown.

The title is a reference to The Legend of Zelda.

I view the U.S. as an enemy country right now, and I live here.

I mean sure, rape is one thing, but this... how can he sink so low as to insult Mitch McConnell? WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE MITCH MCCONNELL?!

I think using LLMs to provide the dialog for NPCs in a RPG is a use case that's just begging to happen. Ie townsfolk that don't just give the same few replies every time, and who react to things you've done in the past beyond just whatever prewritten options the developer thought of.

Seems likely that we'll be better at making things go extinct than un-extinct for a while, yet.

"Germ Theory" is woke, radical leftist propaganda! Make America Great Again, by way of bloodletting!

I think it's logically consistent to say "It was incorrect that I was not declared the winner of the election, and I should have served the corresponding term. But since the government did not recognize my election victory and I did not serve the term, I am still eligible to serve another term". I think it's inconsistent to say that Trump was elected for the purposes of the 22nd amendment, but was not elected for the purposes of serving the term.

(Please don't mistake me though; although I think Trump's position in this particular matter is logically self-consistent, it is not consistent with reality. He lost that election.)

Sound cutoff issues (lemmy.world)
submitted 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Hello! I'm pretty new to pop_os and linux, but am trying to switch over from windows. I've been having some sound issues where it seems like sounds get cut off. It seems to most noticeable with something like doing duolingo from my browser (lots of short sound clips of words and such; if I click on words quickly, then spotify playing in the background will stop playing briefly). I've tried disabling sleep, as described by https://support.system76.com/articles/audio/, without luck. I've also noticed that I see errors listed in pw-top which sometimes correspond to sounds getting cut off. That is, sometimes I notice a cutoff without seeing an increase in the number of errors, but when I notice an increase in the number of errors it usually corresponds to something getting cut off.

Is there a way to see what the errors from pw-top are? Or suggestions for other things I should look into? I've looked at dmesg and systemctl status --user pipewire.service (and pipewire-pulse) but the only error I see is a nvidia-drm thing which seems to be innocuous. I've also uploaded my alsa-info results, if that's useful.
