So I took a bait and switched to gpt-4o in chatgpt. Things are now unusuably slow and there's no way to go back to gpt-3. :-(.

@drewdevault What is "Hare"? Aha, programming language. Why doesn't wikipedia know about it? This is kind of funny:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hare_(disambiguation)
Hare (computer virus), which infected MS-DOS and Windows 95 machines in August 1996
Hare language, a dialect of the Slavey language spoken in Canada

What is the RAM requirement for Bunnix? I guess 256KB would be a bit too tight?

Megapixels 2 now record video. Unlimited length in YUV mode, ~30 second limit in Bayer mode. Details are here: https://gitlab.com/megapixels-org/Megapixels/-/merge_requests/15 I did a test video with -- horse, not a cat, today -- but audio quality is quite bad. I may need to investigate and yes, there's quite a lot of work to do.

@martijnbraam If we really wanted to optimize it, we should make dmabufs cacheable and then pass those around. But I'm afraid that would mean less nice code :-(. Cacheability would help a _lot_, passing memory around would be theoretically nice but not that much of a win I believe.

@martijnbraam Thanks for the writeup :-). There's still more work to do, frames are being dropped in the C code on my pinephone way too often. That needs to be solved before we know what kind of performance is possible.

@dos @stu @eliasr Well... Millipixels is kind of strange hybrid (Rust+C+libcamera), based on old gtk and Librem 5-only. Megapixels can do Librem + PP + PPP and more, so it is likely future, therefore worth testing and switching to. Not sure if it improves image quiality.

@dos @pak0st @badumtss Yes, you can do debayer (etc) on gpu. git@gitlab.com:tui/debayer-gpu.git But nicely integrating that is not easy; it should probably go into libcamera.

@ptesarik @ljs @oleksandr @pony @djasa @lkundrak Some parachutes are called paraglides ... and they do glide :-). Some may be even quite competitive, they definitely can climb in thermals.

@dos @stu @eliasr Aha, ok, I misunderstood. So problem is not so much JPEG as quality of raw->JPEG conversion; yes, that can be case. BTW I don't have Librem 5 to work with at the moment; Megapixels should now work on that one. Would it be possible to test Megapixels and perhaps switch to that?

@fell @enigmatico @lunareclipse Its more complex then that. There are more than two different clipboard systems in Linux, and two of them are commonly used at the same time.

@djasa @pony @oleksandr @lkundrak @ljs IIRC helicopters have worse glide ratio than airplanes, but don't require that much place to stop once they land.

@dos @stu @eliasr I actually don't believe JPEG is Librem 5's biggest problem. There's still lot of work on Librem 5. IIRC kernel driver only passed 8-bit bayer. Plus we need to do all the lens corrections etc.

@ljs @ben @vbabka Well, your arguments were a bit disappointing, too. LMs are useful for trivial tasks, and for easy tasks where you can verify the result. I do both kinds of tasks from time to time.

@vbabka @ben Its not. Using LLM to answer questions might not be good idea, but they should work rather well at translations, including translations between programming languates.
