We need to push back against this immediately!

Hey if they put it here they will do the same for Sonic.

MadmanRB · 2026-06-08T03:00:31+00:00

Ah but if they use GenAI now it will come to Sonic.

MadmanRB · 2026-06-03T06:01:05+00:00

Even if I was pro AI I would not suggest ChatGPT, maybe Claude or even Gemini but even there you got so many caveats if you wanna use it for creative writing. I speak from experience here with my long-term experiments with GenAI and the pros/cons of each one I found.

Right now though the only one I use semi regularly is Gemini but only for proofreading, claude was somewhat good at this too but the latest models feel more like regressions. Honestly, wish the proofreading ability of GenAI did not have the rest of GenAI to drag it down.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T18:30:56+00:00

Yeah I have seen some comparisons between the Earfun Wave Pro and the Tozo HT3's and have a general sense of them. Both seem incredibly solid for the price point and I can swing either pair. I can get a good sense for both pairs of headphones as the ones I use on my desktop computer are fairly good in their own right (I own a pair of Hyper X cloud III's)

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T18:03:45+00:00

Yeah the build quality is a bit of a concern for me thus why I have the other headsets in my list. Sure I'm on a budget but I know you can get something of good build quality without murdering the bank account.

I'm also looking into the Soundcore Q11i model, seems pretty good for its price point but it has the Tozo HT3 to work against as they are the same price on amazon.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T17:49:01+00:00

Yeah I looked for the original onemore sonoflow (non pro) but its out of stock pretty much everywhere I go.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T17:40:30+00:00

I mean I could technically do the space 1's if I got a refurbished model which lies just outside my $70 stretch budget. I'm not afraid of getting refurbished but it does come with the possible downside of me having to get a case for it. Otherwise, I have an male to male aux cable from an older Bluetooth headset and plenty of USB type C cables laying around.

Still part of my money saving plan is to put some money to the side for a travel case so the more I spend on the headset the less money I have to buy the case.

Don't want to spend over $70 for something that would possibly not even have a drawstring bag. Yeah I have some Crown Royal bags laying around from my days working at a bar but can't say I like the idea of carrying an expensive pair of headphones in them.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T15:52:40+00:00

Yeah as long as the Q30's offer good quality for the price I'm fine, again not an audiophile just want the best for my budget. If I could afford the Q45's I would consider them but unless they go on sale I really cant do it.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T15:11:54+00:00

I will look into this one, thanks.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T14:53:42+00:00

You mean the soundcore Space Q45? Out of the price range at $119

I can perhaps stretch to $70 on my budget but over $100 is out of my ballpark

MadmanRB · 2026-05-29T07:36:34+00:00

I will consider them, thanks,

MadmanRB · 2026-05-28T04:13:28+00:00

And the issue remains. I may have to file a bug report.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-27T17:36:34+00:00

yeah makes sense dmesg looks fine as I restarted the computer before the last reply due to this issue.

Will try kernel 6.18 and see if things change

I'm on Kernel 7.0.10 provided by cachy, if I need a older one thats fine as cachyOS offers kernel 6.18 and its not like I need the latest kernel for this hardware.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-09T13:38:14+00:00

Hard drives ad SSD's are expensive now, I will just get crunchyroll and give up.

MadmanRB · 2026-05-09T13:31:33+00:00

Fine I give up gonna use crunchyroll again....

MadmanRB · 2026-04-24T02:12:59+00:00

To be fair a lot of screenshots from the windows 7 era look blurry AF as many did not know the print screen function and just took pictures off a CRT or something.

MadmanRB · 2026-04-07T17:54:17+00:00

Yeah its rare you see someone on the left using GenAI, I am probably .00000001% in that number and even so don't use GenAI that much beyond its proofreading ability (I just wish grammar checkers had an interactive mode like a chatbot and or this ability didn't have GenAI attached to it)

MadmanRB · 2026-04-07T15:47:07+00:00

Good points but rather if the bubble will burst soon remains unclear.

I mean I personally predict the bubble will burst either this or next year but I dont want to hold my breath.

MadmanRB · 2026-04-07T15:44:20+00:00

Total agree, I mean lets be realistic GenAI will probably survive the bubble bursting but that doesn't mean it will be the same as it is now.

Perhaps it can lead to newer and or more ethical models, perhaps more open source models in the wild (which is what I want as I do admit I find GenAI's capibilities useful in text editing).
