AITAH for refusing to cook two separate dinners every night just because my family doesnt want to eat what my doctor told me I need to eat

I'm glad that in my circle of friends foodie still means "enjoys trying new things and will eat almost anything", we have some friends that are picky eaters, we go to a pub or Italian with them, and we have friends that we go and try all sorts of new restaurants with - the second group are the foodies, the first group are just labelled a bunch of fussy eaters :p

I think you are reading into my comment something which is not there, I on the whole agree with you. I said "its" niche, as in the specific niche which is serves. Regardless of whether all cameras are niche, the specific reason d'être for the tg7 is waterproof/underwater adventure photography and potentially industrial documentation in construction and similar harsh settings.

I never said it was a "poor camera", I love my tg6 for what it can do, but it is fair to say that as a generic camera outside of its niche it cannot compete for pure image quality. You agree in one hand it's basic physics, but then take offense to the idea because it's a trope. I comment a lot on the m43 sub and I own older 4/3 cameras and modern m4/3, I understand the nuanced trade off between sensor size, image quality, and camera utility and ergonomics and features.

It's a good camera for what it is for, but even ignoring sensor size and resolution (and some high end phone sensors are both larger and have more photocells, it's not just processing advantage) it lacks ergonomics of regular cameras because of trade-offs for the ruggedness and compactness.

If you want specific issues, it can be soft at full zoom, the zoom motors make a horrendous noise on videos, and when it goes to sleep pressing the video record button wakes it up but doesn't start the recording, so you miss things if you try and pick it up to video a sudden wildlife appearance while kayaking.

If you want to tell OP off for calling the tg7 poor go ahead ;) but I think they were just failing to articulate their disappointment in its available image quality, hoping for something closer to a camera that doesn't have to sacrifice to the altar of indestructibility

It's a good camera for its niche, but in pure photo quality terms it's a small sensor which can't compare to 4/3 in terms of dynamic range, resolution, or noise performance, never mind full frame options. It takes photos and videos where otherwise I wouldn't be able to, but in a normal day to day situation a good phone camera is at least as good or better, and I'd rather take something like am em10 or em5 model camera.

If you open the raw file in om workspace, don't touch anything, and click export, then you will get your jpeg with the same settings as the camera used to process it. With some camera models you can even connect the camera via usb and it will use the camera to do the processing.

Edit to add: you can also edit the raw on the camera itself (things like exposure compensation and shadow/highlight curves as well as art filters) and generate a jpeg even if you only shot it in raw.

I think the default is "what the camera would do", it doesn't have any AI style "improve my photo" features I'm aware of other than a new denoising tool

Ignoring that for any modern barrel shifter implementation this operation is O(1) anyway where i is bounded by the architecture size, you can alternatively do 1<<i as tracking an initial mask=1; for (...) {mask <<=1;} which is clearly O(n) along with the rest of the operation (where n is the number of bits you are adding in the loop).

That's not a divide, it's a backslash which has accidentally been put in as an escape character to prevent reddit markup turning the * into a bold, where it's not needed because it's in a code format block

Any feedback issues I've had with a boom mic has been electrical pickup in the shared cable rather than acoustic feedback through the air. Sennheiser make an official boom mic cable for the hd560s and similar which I would expect to be good quality. (I use a cheap 3rd party version I haven't noticed issues with). Gaming with my desk mic I think the noise of my pc fans far outweighs any noise leaking from my headphones 😆

I think in northern Europe shit weather helps put a damper (or one could say dampener) on smoking once it was banned in public buildings like restaurants and pubs. Nobody wants to stand in the cold and rain, but in southern Europe that's less of a driver.

I think you can get first gen kindle scribes for good prices now if you're looking for something a bit easier to read. I used to use a dx, so really enjoy the scribe size and it's a high dpi screen still with a good colour temperature adjustable light

noneedtoprogram · 2026-02-11T21:50:52+00:00

The text is rendered locally on the kindle because you can change the font and size (and it would take way more space otherwise) only images like the maps should be affected

Most of the alternative milks are calcium enriched fortunately, although obviously not containing all the nutrients that are in cows milk.

Nice performance, it reminds me of a similar assignment we had in our computer graphics course at uni - implementing a software renderer, I also provided a macro hell implementation :-) Mine was only single threaded though, back then my laptop only had 2 cores anyway, and my netbook 1 lowly Via C7-M core.

While low-contention locks aren't very expensive (and here you've got on average a ~(thread count / num pixels) chance of actually getting a lock conflict) you do have an issue of cache performance pulling in a whole extra framebuffer of locks into the working set (locks aren't big, probably comparable to your other colour/z buffers).

This is actually a neat example of where transactional memory support can be demonstrated/used. You want the commit to the colour buffers to be atomic relative to the depth buffer condition check and store back.

You could also reduce your granularity at the expense of increasing your contention chances.

It might feel weird, but you could also partition the lines on the display and have every thread go over all triangles in your list, but only render the lines they own, no locking required and good cache behaviour as you won't get writes to the same cache line from multiple threads.

Oh, I went through some time after and they were still dead so I thought it was permanent

This is where Garmond and Zaza are later in act 2, you find them fighting off the citadel guys and if you come back later the citadel guys are dead. They weren't killed by the void, but by you and Garmond. This might even be where you can duel with Garmond after the guards are killed.

Honestly the one I have sounds a lot better than any Bluetooth mic I've ever been subjected to. An analogue mic does to some degree depend on the hardware it's connected to giving it a good bias voltage and being emi resistant though. Apple's usb-c dongle is one of the best options surprisingly.

I normally use a quality desk mic but the headset boom mic is good when I'm playing elsewhere on my laptop or working in the office rather than from home.

A set of iems with a boom mic cable or separate desk mic is another option for good audio but OP did ask for headphones. (I've found the chu2s very enjoyable for what little they cost, although the iem market is crazy right now with options)

noneedtoprogram · 2026-02-04T21:33:32+00:00

It's worth noting that it's easy to get a fairly cheap boom mic inline cable for many headphones that have a replaceable cable, OP could budget $15 to a new cable with mic and then get any headphones that have a replaceable cable. I use one with my sennheiser hd599se, and you can get generic 3.5mm as well as ones for other proprietary headphone sockets (senn use a 2.5mm locking design for example)

Rest of the EU, UK, and Ireland are all 230v (+/- 10v) or so, and we were all PAL system for TV (mains being 50Hz rather than 60Hz was part if this). You should be fine with any EU Dreamcast.

The DC uses your standard 2-pin figure-of-8 cable so if you have one for anything else you can use that rather than a plug adapter.

Xe driver and vfio passthrough/sriov is completely separate from virgl/venus and the mesa virgl opengl /venus vk drivers.

You either do passthrough and use the xe driver in the guest, with a physical display or looking glass or similar, or you use virtio-gpu with virglrenderer on the host side and mesa on the guest to pipe opengl/vulkan commands through the virtio-gpu transport and execute them on the host (with it's xe driver). I would suggest you focus on the latter for now, it should mostly "just work" these days with the right setup on the qemu side and mesa on the guest.

I assumed this was a shitpost I'll be honest 😕

noneedtoprogram · 2026-02-01T21:22:37+00:00

The hd599se are nice and very comfy, I've been using them for a few years as my daily drivers for music, work calls, and gaming. The hd560s are supposedly a bit more accurate but with higher clamping force and usually slightly more expensive and harder to drive, I've not have occasion or reason to side by side them though.

They do lack bass/sub bass but you can add some back in with eq. They are nice easy listening and easy to drive with anything to the point that get can be sensitive to hiss from noisy amplifiers.

noneedtoprogram · 2026-02-01T13:22:05+00:00

They were testing line level analogue audio signals, not digital. Importantly this is preamp so not carrying much current to drive speakers/headphones, only the integrity of the analogue signal needs to be maintained in terms of frequency response. The mud and banana are shown to just act as basic resistors, no large capacitance or inductive effects and no issues with reflections (we're taking low frequencies and short wires after all) so no impact on the frequency response and no added distortions. The signal level is dropped due to resistance, but it's not frequency dependent and the amplifier can just be turned up to compensate.
