an android tablet and a bluetooth keeb is probably more cost effective than a freewrite

i do like my freewrite, kinda. wish i could have the 20g keys in it though. and just slightly more OS to it :comfyglare:

if i had hardwareblobs and money i'd have them put it somewhere about 50% between what the freewrite alpha is now and the freewrite dana.

raspberry in a nutshell

- make cheap computers for educational use
- hobbyists adopt them because they are cheap
- ecosystem gets made on the back of the public
- corpos see an ecosystem and colonize it
- raspberry stops selling to hobbyists

:gutkato_kjooo: wonder if something like that can be used for audio compression lol

quantizing the actual samples and using the predictor to smooth it back out

i think this is a normal thing actually, though not sure what filter they use for that

wonder how easy it is to do some basic layer compositing in kdenlive :neocat_thonk:

like having two videos overlaid and using a third video to assign an alpha channel, to do something cool like use a train as a wipe transition.

olive and natron can do it. don't remember if blender vse can. (having to flip to a compositor to do transitions is ass... hope you can write a script if you have to go that far :neocat_flush:)
