This has not been my experience. I have frequent crashes with Fusion that seem to be related to specific nodes. Checking my computers usage it doesn't seem like I'm running out of juice either.

When it works, it's really nice and I'm sold on the node based workflows, but it's not all entirely roses.

Resolve itself is excellent, Fairlight works just Ok and is still heaps better than Audition ever was. But Fusion I feel like hasn't seen enough love in the past few years.

The whole Reactor setup for installing Fuses feels really broken and for the free users they disabled those entirely in version 19.1.


That’s interesting, our experience with fusion has been fantastic. But maybe you’re doing certain kind of work or more advanced work than we are

my experience us sadly the opposite. when I'm recording gameplay with OBS with x11 and xfce I have roughly a 7-9ms frame render time and with Wayland and any desktop env it creeps up above 16ms, which means I can't get a solid 60fps.

in all other cases other than gaming and recording, Wayland has been a delight.


If your aim is to only record gameplay (and not stream), then there are far better Wayland-native tools like wl-screenrec[1] for wlroots-based compositors and gpu-screen-recorder[2] for others. The latter even supports live streaming, so could be used as a lightweight alternative to OBS.

The 940mx on this laptop doesn't support hardware video encoding, so I'm basically forced to run everything on CPU. I do also stream so it's definitely a nice to have.

I could run the game on the GPU and leave more CPU for the desktop and encoder, maybe I'd be able to record and play on Wayland that way, but there's some additional drawing latency if I run the game on the GPU, the frame buffer gets sent back to the CPU before it's drawn on the display anyways.

As it's rhythm games I mainly play (ITGmania, Stepmania fork), the additional latency for getting the picture out on the display it's not really working out great for me.


With X11 you don't have to care about what wm/compositor you're using to choose a screen recorder.

Do you have "allow tearing" enabled?

yep and I've also tried disabling the compositior in KDE, which marginally helps but not enough.

this is incorrect lol. the water is just to help with humidity, to prevent a dry mouth and sinuses. all resumed cpap machines for example can be used without the water tank as long as you have the backplate.

the water in the tank is heated to increase the humidity of the air circulating.

cpap machines work by increasing the air pressure on breath-ins and help open your airways by keeping your genioglossus tensor veli palatini muscles engaged.


Soundpaint, Sampletank, LABS, Best Service Engine, UVI Falcon, SINEfactory, Decent Sampler just to name a few


None of those are standard and open except for Decent and UVI which does have third party developers albiet not many. Anecdotally the only dev I know on UVI is acoustic samples? Since Virharmonic moved off of UVI onto their own powered by gorilla

The rest you listed, Soundpaint, Engine, etc. are company specific proprietary samplers. Their only market share is the market share of their own company

A lot of these aren't even samplers?

SINEfactory is just OT's free collection of instruments. Labs is not even a free collection either anymore, Spitfire has done some strange subscription or monetization wrapper around it (and fyi labs used to be on Kontakt).


Yeah true. I have an old Asus X550L from 2014, a very budget / mid basic home laptop with the battery removed running as my server. I do some dev on it with VSCode remoting into it and Claude Code, run Jellyfin, Audiobookshelf, Teamspeak, IRC and TS bots, nginx, SyncThing and some static websites.

I'm still usually under 10% cpu usage and at 25% ram usage unless I'm streaming and transcoding with Jellyfin.

It's been fun and super useful. Almost any old laptop from the past 15 years could run and solve several home computing needs with little difficulty.


You're not wrong, bad beans are bad beans. But on the other hand, no matter how fancy single origin perfectly roasted beans you have, a crappy barista will most likely pull a terrible shot.

Beans can't compensate for the lack of skill.


That can't really be called a shot anymore tho, you're not even in a lungo territory if you're pulling a 200ml shot.

Or do you mean an Americano? Are you adding water afterwards?


> 200ml shot

It's not an espresso.


Americano? I would not touch that with a ten-foot pole.

No... no water. The Brikka has a pressure valve and the 200 ml of water yield about 125-150 ml of coffee.

You might call it a double lungo, but with a bit of crema (yep) and no acidity or sour taste. Just sweet coffee with nice chocolate notes.

I use coffee beans from Papua New Guinea, roasted locally at the coffee shop.


I’ve used cafetière off-and-on in the past but felt that I could never get the pressure high enough and the amount short enough. You’re saying that the Brikka produces enough pressure for an espresso? Is this something specific to the Brikka or will any Bialetti stovetop do? Can I use half or 1/3 as much water as you? Cafetière seem to have a minimum lower bound but I like it short short.


It is specific to the Brikka. They put a pressure valve in the column. The coffee must reach a certain pressure before it starts to flow.

You may try whatever amount of water you want... just don't let it burn in place!

There is a subtle balancing act between the quantity of coffee in the basket (how much headspace you keep) and the amount of water ( a ratio of 10:1 with the coffee -- before making the coffee -- yields good results for me).

So ... if you put less water, that means less coffee... which means more empty space in the basket, which modifies the dynamics.

Pro tip: use as little heat as possible to get the water to a gentle boil. Otherwise you might burn the coffee in the basket. Bad.

In short, you will have to experiment...


Okay very interesting. Thanks for the detailed answer. I looked into it a bit more[1], it sounds like the valve is producing 1.5 bar. A very nice stovetop for a moka, but probably not a good fit for me.

Huh what? I can easily sit in a sauna for an hour without breaks as long as it has some type of ventilation.

Smoke saunas a bit less, electric or wood stove saunas no issue. It's nice to take a breather once in a while but I'd honestly have no issues sitting in a 80-90 deg sauna for an hour as long as I have enough to drink with me.

One time I sat in the sauna for six hours with a few breaks between with a group of friends shooting the shit. I had a headache the next morning but I blame it on the Jallu and not the sauna.


At which temperature?


The one event where we say and drank, it was about 90 deg celcius and lots of water on the stove (löyly).


Markdown without formatting isn't usually the nicest to read imo. I actually appreciate a well laid out and formatted document myself.

Also wysiwyg doesn't mean it can't be back and forwards compatible with markdown, it might just mean that it's a markdown editor gui with a preview.


It’s also not nice to write longer text in monospace. Or to have long URLs interrupt the text just because you want a hyperlink on some word. Or having to lay out tables by hand like ASCII art. Seeing *this* isn’t the same as seeing this. And you need custom editor software anyway to have affordances like TOC navigation.


Tables by hand, I hate. But I don't quite agree with the first sentiment. For longform prose, it isn't that unusual for people to work with all editing marks visible. Writing novels, I absolutely write using monospace, because it allows you to more concisely control large amounts of formatting easily.


> long URLs interrupt the text just because you want a hyperlink

This annoyed me until I realized pandoc supports separating [the link text] from the link location.

  [the link text]: </url/to/resource>
      "`title` parameter of the <a> tag, if converted to HTML"


Yep, but (a) that isn’t portable Markdown, (b) your editor probably doesn’t support opening the link from the link text in that case, and (c) whenever you want to modify the link text you have to modify all occurrences. A word processor can handle that automatically for you. It can also offer completion (like tab completion) for references that you use repeatedly. It can show as a tooltip what a given link text links to. Conveniences like that is what computers are for, let’s not relapse to the stone age here.


  > Markdown without formatting isn't usually the nicest to read imo
Or to write! I use a bunch of features of markdown rarely enough that I can't remember the format for them half the time, and so I'm always looking at markdown references/cheatsheets. Add to that all the variations and incompatibilities between markdown versions and I'd much rather just use a wysiwyg word processor with nice keyboard shortcuts and a toolbar, and save in markdown format if I need to.


Not a great way to handle the issue originally, but I think the CEO's response is more than fair.

I haven't had to contact Bunny's support so it's a bit disappointing to see this type of runaround from the support, but as an actual issue it seems pretty minor in the end.

I've been using Bunny for ~four years after looking at video hosting. In the four years we've saved approximately 50 000€ compared to if we'd gone with Cloudflare video streaming service and it's just been rock solid for us.


The CEO's response is alright, the VP of engineering's response is a bit more worrying in how it mainly tries to downplay the issue.
