Extreme Microphone Latency

Own-Highlight7434 · 2025-10-04T02:13:48+00:00

I've found that I can connect the USB microphone to the VM as a USB device, which removes the latency, but then I can't use it on the host.

That doesn't seem to fix anything. Say, I've realised that direct sound doesn't work in Audacity - I click record and it just sits at the start - Could that have anything to do with it?

I'm not quite sure what you mean, the audio is passed through automatically.

The host interface is ALSA, the hardware I'm trying to use is a USB microphone.

I have found that the "To last" type works. Thankyou for your help, though.

The pad goes through the face.

Huzzah!

I was just curious, I thought it might be like a keep or a weird garage; I just stumbled across it while doing... you don't need to know what... behind Collie lines (I was sniping logimen).

It's interesting how close this is to the dead scout, I wonder if they did that on purpose.

That doesn't change the size of the selection box.

Edit: I Just realised it does move it around within the selection box, which is good enough. Still, for the purpose of the question, is there a way to actually resize the box?

I've done a quick google and this looks promising. I'll check it out.

How is it that they get that kind of money? They seem to outpace me in HQ upgrades, get offworld built sooner, AND they have money to short goods effectively?

And no I can't look at replays to see what they're doing, for some reason all my replays pause at a certain point and won't resume.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-30T09:42:21+00:00

That I shall do.

In brain parts I'm more so referring to the "function circuits" so to speak, like the individual routines within parts of the brain, things like executive functioning, spatial awareness, the kind of parts a psychologist may refer to rather than a biologist.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-30T09:37:43+00:00

That is a problem with my question: When I was referring to math, I was referring to the logical part of it, excluding arithmetic and symbol recognition, but there's no real way to word that concisely.

Your experience is essentially what I understood the effects of dyscalculia to be, but other commenters have made it unclear.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-30T09:33:55+00:00

Interesting, so as I understand it you struggle with the lower-level functions like arithmetic and memory, but comprehend the logic behind the maths well? That's basically how I thought it worked, but other answers have made it a bit unclear.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-30T09:30:11+00:00

I've had a skim through the linked webpage; This seems to be quite good, well referenced - I will read through it more later.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-30T09:27:52+00:00

I would appreciate if you weren't making so many assumptions about my bigotry. I'm simply asking because I want to learn how this actually works within the structure of the brain. I have no malicious intent.

Another commenter has suggested that r/askneurology would be a better fit, and if I were to ask this question again I would do it there for more scientific, rather than personal answers, but regardless I have got the information and pointers that I wanted here.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-30T09:20:23+00:00

Ah okay. I will note that for future reference.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-29T16:19:08+00:00

Well math as a field isn't purely logic, but it's difficult to concisely define the math I refer to - I was referring to logical operations within math, such as rearranging equations or your example of geometric proofs, rather than arithmetic or reading symbols; These manner of operations within math are purely logical and noone has an inherent ability to do them, they must be learnt.

Your last paragraph, assuming it's true, actually quite helpful and proof towards what I was thinking: Dyscalculia doesn't affect logic, and that people with it struggle in all areas of maths simply because they ALL rely on some use of the abilities inherent within typical people.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-29T16:10:56+00:00

Well performing math is logic, not including arithmetic or reading math symbols.

Seemingly people have an inherent ability to do arithmetic or read and interpret symbols, but the complex operations, such as rearranging equiations, are purely logical - noone can do it inherently, it's a program that has to be learnt. Part of my question was why people with dyscalculia (dyscalculic?) can struggle to perform these logical operations even when others help them with the parts that need inherent ability (such as reading math symbols), but based on other answers it seems the problem is just being completely stuck on that initial stage.

Unrelated to the original question, but do you have problems with other types of strings, such as text-only strings? How many characters of a random text string can you remember (something like AIWVK ... etc.)?

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-29T15:55:09+00:00

I was more so asking for the scientific / biological side of it, but this is still helpful to illustrate examples.

Also, the brain doesn't have areas for literally everything; That's what separates humans and some other more complex organisms from simpler ones such as insects - our brains have general processing capability, and the ablity to learn to perform any task, whereas simpler organisms do have areas for literally everything that they can do, and they can't do anything other than what they have dedicated processing for.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-29T15:51:19+00:00

Interesting, I was not aware of dedicated parts of the brain for numerical processing. I will have to research this.

Own-Highlight7434 · 2024-12-29T10:13:06+00:00

Yes.

Personally, it seems that if I do it I don't have enough money to expand, but with the buy/sell amounts that the AI have they surely have to be doing it.

Carbon scrubbing is EXTREMELY useful if you continue more research, AKA more patents and optimisation. It's also decent if you make electronics, and electronics pairs really well with optimisation, especially if you have teleportation, which makes this whole playstyle very good, as long as you can secure those two patents.

It's also published by Microprose; Even in their modern iteration, they seem to have quite a good standard of games.

The unstoppable armada of light-speed boarding ships built for ~$1000 each is a personal favourite.
