re: sleeptalking recording

@kemona_halftau I listen to music while falling asleep, which would definitely interfere with the recording, but I could just delay the start of the recording by a few hours (until after the music ends) to work around that

@kemona_halftau does a white noise machine do anything different from aplay /dev/urandom?

@kemona_halftau

char decoded[640*480]; // FIXME: is the stack always large enough??

unfortunately, I don’t think anything can be done about this (except handling the SIGSEGV when you run out of stack space using sigaltstack). getrlimit can be used to get the maximum stack size, but although there is a ru_isrss field in the rusage struct, linux doesn’t actually use it (see getrusage(2))

@kemona_halftau do you record yourself while you sleep? how do you find interesting stuff in the recording without listening through hours of what is probably mostly silence and nonsense?

apparently I talk in my sleep so I've thought about doing that to see what I say (and if I leak any passwords or other meaningful information), but I'm not listening to a multiple-hour-long mostly-silent recording, that'd be as boring and time-consuming as watching CCTV footage

@agatha @peachymist if you could fetch the same file from multiple IP addresses in different countries and somehow diff the audio files, you could cut out the segments that differ to remove the ads

@agatha @peachymist I see, I didn't know that was a thing. How do they fingerprint you to target them if you're not authenticated in any way? All they'd have to go on are IP address and HTTP headers

@peachymist I'm talking about the first type, I didn't know the latter type was even a thing. Since a podcast is just an RSS feed containing links to audio files, any extra ads would presumably have to be added by the podcast client. In which case blocking ads wouldn't be required, just not using a client with the antifeature of adding them in the first place. I use/recommend AntennaPod (Android) and gPodder (desktop)

@peachymist how would that even work? unless the start/end timestamps of the ads are specified somewhere

@kemona_halftau why do you put the * next to the type rather than next to the variable name? I don’t know if you already know this but a declaration like int* a, b; will result in a being of type int* and b being of type int, which is why usually people put the * next to the variable name (otherwise declarations like that are confusing, because written like that it looks like they should both be int*)
