| schestowitz[TR2] | "I think fall rates are a bit too slow | Mar 24 08:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | It sounds the same to me in browser (Firefox, Chrome) and has some click INSIDE the dits and dahs | Mar 24 08:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Which is very weird, it's clean sine wave | Mar 24 08:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Maybe aliasing is doing this? Playing with audio files and slew rates to hopefully make it clean | Mar 24 08:54 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | I've made slew duration an argument you can change while invoking the script | Mar 24 08:56 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | <p>The FreeBSD ports tree is branched every quarter, roughly with the idea that you can pick a stable(-ish) branch of ports to consume, or you can go with main and get the ports-du-jour. The branches also offer a way of sticking to older releases of some software. </p> | Mar 24 15:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <p> KDE Plasma 6 (and most of KDE Gear, and all the supporting KDE Frameworks) have arrived in main, and the KDE Plasma 5 ports have been removed. That’s a decision of the kde@ group of maintainers of the KDE ports in FreeBSD, one which boils down to not having the time available to maintain both versions, and wanting to be able to upstream fixes. </p> | Mar 24 15:55 |
