Yooooo lmao first transphobic email I've gotten!! Milestone achieved I guess.

I'm sure this is just a copypasta, but still. Come on man, come up with some better material, will ya? Didn't even read it all the way, too boring and generic.

Reminds me of like... uhh. a year+ ago when a bunch of dumb teens decided to dog me for my pinned antifa post.

Not an ounce of creativity to be found in their insults. Very boring and unoriginal.

Do better, etc.

lmfao

A new version of Kandria has been released with several important fixes.

You can now get it from wherever you bought it from.

There's something uniquely comforting about a room in which you can "hear" the emptiness. Like an empty classroom or an empty washing closet.

babe wake up, new unlearning economics video just came out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yC0dsTtRVo

every day at work

I am so starved for love and attention that the fucking nag notifications from apps are literal poison to me.

Nothing stings quite like seeing or hearing a notif that brings the faint hope of someone caring about me, only to see some fucking piece of shit exploitative robot tactic at work.

You know what's sick about my engine? All I had to do to make the enemies paintable was to add one class to their superclass list.

I'm not sure there's anything that irritates me as quickly as people that ask others extremely trivial questions that make it obvious they didn't even *attempt* to find the answer on their own

Intellectual laziness isn't quite the right term for that.... Is there a term for that?

What the fuck are you talking about, HelloTalk??

I wonder if some people think open source is like a kiosk or something where you just gotta say something is not how you want it and there's no other choice but for it to be fixed by... whatever happens that makes the source open.

@screwtape I have no idea, and in general signal processing theory stuff is extremely incompatible with my brain, so....

Anyway, I just want to do something a bit smarter than the usual voice chat thing of thresholding by volume, with the hopes I'll prevent it from being triggered by random noises.

Since I want to use it to drive the avatar's mouth open/close, having minor noise be treated as signal is far worse than in a voice chat app situation.

@screwtape Hmm, yeah, I thought about similar stuff, but I really don't want to train on a specific voice or anything. I guess convolving with an inverse average voice frequency response and then checking deviation could work?

I'm off to bed now, but in case anyone has thoughts about this I'd be all ears:

Any ideas on how to do very simple human voice recognition? I just want to detect whether an audio stream is likely to be a voice or not, to improve the accuracy over a simple volume based approach that most chat things use.

The best I've come up with is checking the largest frequency bin and whether it lies in a normal vocal range (100-8k Hz), but that seems like it'd also have lots of false positives.

look ma, geometry processing (removing triangles with narrow angles at increasingly high thresholds)

HELLO! I am #hiring for a Common #Lisp expert to implement a Binary Space Partitioning (BSP) tree.

This is a paid gig for open source work!
