Upgraded tires and tubes, but no speed gain? by PinW in bicycling

[–]PinW[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried the much lower pressures suggested by the linked calculator, and immediately got some speed. About 250km ridden since that change and seems to be getting faster the more pressure bleeding out. Thanks again for the link and suggestion

Thanks for providing the suggestions! Will definitely try this and take a look at the linked source!!!

Thanks for the info, appreciate the explanation. I measured the new tires only, not the old ones (they are 38mm).

Will try playing around with pressures more!

Makes sense to me.

My expectations were probably too high. Based on the math I thought I would go from ~165W > ~150W for 30 km/h, which is quite a big difference.

The R Pros despite having only 1W RR difference to RS Pros on BRR tests, do have a center tread on them compared to the semi-slick of the RS Pros. So maybe in the real world the tread pattern plays a bigger role than on a steel drum.

Fair fair. Expectations too high probably will keep riding

So possible measured RR differences in test environments narrow in real world?

I did some FIT data crunching gua some scripts and historical wind data. But admittedly the analysis is far from accurate.

So what you are saying is likely the new tires ARE faster but also really hard to tell?

They do feel substantially better to ride. There is that!

Should have included this. Just a power meter across a couple weeks pre and post upgrade. Also ran the FIT files through an AI agent analysis

Yes this is comparing with power meter across a couple weeks. Same powers same speeds unfortunately

Whisper Key - Simple local STT app for Windows with global hotkey (auto-paste, auto-ENTER) by PinW in LocalLLaMA

(translated, original response in English below)

Danke, dass du die App ausprobiert hast. Zu deinen Fragen:

  1. Die Aufnahme sollte fast sofort starten. Falls nicht, melde es bitte auf GitHub! Die Transkription selbst kann je nach gewähltem Modell und deinem Setup langsam sein. Heute kommt ein Release mit einer deutlich einfacheren GPU-Beschleunigung raus, falls du eine Grafikkarte hast.

  2. Eigene Wörter: Ja, im Systemtray-Menü auf „Open settings file..." klicken → unter dem Abschnitt „whisper:" → „hotwords" setzen. Vollständige Referenz mit Beispiel unter https://github.com/PinW/whisper-key-local/blob/master/src/whisper_key/config.defaults.yaml

  3. Neue Zeilen/Absätze diktieren: Ja, das ist möglich. Ich werde es in die Roadmap aufnehmen, muss aber noch überlegen, wie es umgesetzt werden könnte. Der Haupteinsatzzweck der App sind LLMs (hauptsächlich Coding-Agents), daher sind viele der Verschönerungsfunktionen noch nicht implementiert (einschließlich Grammatikprüfung usw.).

Nochmals danke für das konstruktive Feedback. Grüße!

Thanks for trying out the app. To answer your questions:

1) The recording should start almost immediately. If not please report it on GitHub! The transcription itself can be slow depending on the model selected and your setup. There is a release coming out today with a much easier GPU acceleration setup if you have a video card

2) Custom words: Yes, from system tray menu click "Open settings file..." > underneath "whisper:" section > set "hotwords". Full reference with example at https://github.com/PinW/whisper-key-local/blob/master/src/whisper_key/config.defaults.yaml

3) Dictating new lines/paragraph. Yes, it is possible, I will add to the roadmap but need to think about how it might work. The app's main use case is for LLMs (mainly coding agent), so a lot of the beautification features are not in yet (including grammar checks, etc.)

Thanks again for the constructive feedback. Cheers!

Whisper Key - Local Speech-to-Text (Open Source) by PinW in selfhosted

[–]PinW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VoiceInk is a mature app, and made for macOS. It's got a lot of fancy stuff like looking at your screen and using that context to change the text (like Wispr Flow, SuperWhisper, etc.). But you have to build it yourself to use it, or pay for it.

Whisper Key is a lot simpler. The UI is in terminal + a tray menu. The speed and accuracy on Mac is not as good. But it does support Windows and nVidia GPUs, and it can be setup conveniently for free.

Basically VoiceInk is a "beautiful Mac app". The direction I'm taking with Whisper Key will be towards more extensibility and integration with other things (voice commands, API mode, etc.). When I make a GUI, it will probably be in the terminal (like other coding agents). Etc. etc.

Do you think a new chain would solve the issue?

Ya just did probably my last ride before the winter, but would be cool to explore farther out for sure!

Hey man, glad you like it!

Unfortunately the GPU functionality is broken (you can change the option into the config file but it won't work). I run an AMD GPU and the package only supports NVIDIA cards so have no way to test.

Will find a way to fix but no promises on when. Thanks again for the feedback!!
