No.1205
>>1203For most cases, just caching a page on the server and serving it is not a big deal.
The problem I've found is that each tab on a webpage is actually, for whatever reason, sharing the same thread so if one locks up it can cause the entire site to freeze. Not always though. Haven't looked that hard.
So by putting too much stress on the client you can cause bad site performance. You could throw in service workers and the like, but it will hit similar bottlenecks in rending the page.
No.1206
>>1204>They promise speed but any real projects using them are slowwwwwwI think the real killer is first the webpage must load, then the javascript must load if it's not cached already, then the javascript must connect to an API and load stuff, and frequently it will even have to do yet another connection to grab more after the initial API fetch so suddenly you got 3-4x the latency for seemingly no reason and unlike in the past where you watched a white screen for half a second you now get to watch a bunch of spinners everywhere.
I'm in favor of always generating the full page and delivering it as such, even with millions of concurrent visitors it is not that hard to setup multiple servers to generate the webpage for the users. They did this in the past and only stopped because they believe saving money is more important than building a decent product and because most users use apps they can therefore just ignore the computer part of their website and let it rot on mobile oriented tech debt.
No.1207
>>1206I believe this site is client-side rendered. However, the initial html includes a script element in the head with json data including window.thread_json. Only the thread updates (including auto updates) fetch new json. A simple solution to the latency issue.
No.1208
>>1207It's as you say.
A nodeJS service handles the requests for the site. At one point I experimented with server side rendering and hydration, but it had no benefits for the added complexity. Instead the server prefetches the JSON data it will use to build the site.
The slow part is still the generation and such, but it doesn't have to wait for data at least.

Been trying to get audio to output Firefox to HDMI and line-out. Timing is a mess though and I'm not sure how to do it in pulse audio. The suggestion I found was quite depressing.
I need to figure out how to cause a delay between the two sources so they sink
>it works but the timing is a mess. i understand now why no professional wanted to write software for linux. the complete audio architecture is a bit of a mess. pulseaudio being more network oriented and jack single audio device. it is hard to create tight sync between multiple audio devices. The synchronisation issues are simply not easy to solve.

amazing. You have to compile everything for gento
No.1443
>>1442You don't. They started offering binaries for most packages. They've always offered them for the stuff that takes longer than 3 seconds to compile (browsers, Rust and a few others).
The end game: You install Gentoo on all your machines. Then you use your home server to compile packages for the rest of them. It churns away unnoticed and provides updates for everything from your workstation to your puny 15 year old thinkpad.
Gentoo is the best desktop OS because you can configure it any way you want and it stays out of the way after the initial 2-3 day manual install. You can have anything from a autism WM where you run everything from command line to a full blown KDE bloated desktop abomination with stupid useless screen effects. Need a patch? Drop it into a directory and let portage handle it. Don't like pipewire or systemd? No problem, set a USE flag or two and everything else just werks. No hacky work arounds. No backports.
Anyone that complains about compile times or it being hard hasn't tried it. Gentoo is the great filter. It's really too bad that RedHat has taken it over and is slowly killing it from the inside by bribing the council and people that seized control of the repos about a decade ago. Thankfully, Funtoo is a thing and gets better with each passing year and Gentoo can still be unfucked for the moment. But I expect to see it go systemd only at some point in the next few years. It's already effectively systemd by default. They just invoke everything from OpenRC instead of systemd itself.
I personally use s6 init and have removed all traces of potteringware from my config. It took a couple of days to set all that up like 4 years ago. But since then it just works. I run nightly updates with portage from the ~amd64 repos. Unlike Arch systems I've maintained portage doesn't break itself without my direct input. I probably have to manually do something for updates like twice a year.

Is there a file explorer that uses a tagging system? For example: There's a directory for all your anime songs with each anime having its own directory and what not, but creating a OPED directory for each anime, then having to go through all those anime to create a playlist of only OPEDs is a pain. So you tag files as "OPED" and when you want just the OPEDs you can bypass the directory barrier and show all the files tagged as OPEDs inside a certain parent directory.
Directory view:
AniSongs:
anime1:
OPED:
op.mp3
ed.mp3
song1.mp3

No.1564
>>1533>>1550It's bad and requires local software. PGS subtitles are image files. Meaning they have to be OCRed which is never perfect process and will require a lot of manual editing on your part to the resulting SRT (text) files.
What show are you trying to convert? You might be better off searching for existing SRT conversion by someone else. I can help you (maybe do it for you) if you really need it for something hard to find though.
PGS -> text file is why the most popular release for Moon Phase on nyaa right now has tons of errors in it. I was correcting a lot of them a few months ago. But then I got busy on other things.
Bit off topic but: I'm working on a new subtitle format that doesn't kill toasters while allowing advanced typesetting. Well it isn't my format (it's W3C standard) but hardly anyone uses it right now even though it has been around for years. I'm basically working on Aegisub replacement.

No.1567
>>1566PGS is the subtitle format native to DVD. They had to make them image based because most DVD players lacked the ability/power to decode advanced subtitle effects in real time and they wanted more advanced subtitles than a format like SRT (SubRip) could offer.
If you see PGS in an .mkv file it came from a DVD 9 times out of 10. That said it should be possible to "burn them in" (hardsub them) provided you have the right software. I'm sure ffmpeg could do it. Although I wouldn't go through the trouble.
Can you source .ass/.srt from somewhere else for this show? If the timing is a bit off that's an easy fix.

But, it's interesting to see "Burn in" greyed out on this default option titled Official Subs. There's definitely something unusual about these subs when compared to most of the ones I've seen in Handbrake.

>In Handbrake, the setting was of limited use, as it relied on the subtitle being correctly tagged. You'll now see Foreign audio scan in subtitle settings, where Handbrake looks at the lines in the subtitle track to work out if it's likely to be a forced / foreign audio subtitle track, but it can and does get it wrong.

>>1579It may be (without looking closer myself) that there are two subtitles. One is dialog+signs while the other is signs only. Assuming the DVD had a dub of any kind the "forced" subtitles would be the ones that play along with dubbed audio. Kind of like the "forced" subtitles in a movie where certain characters are speaking another language and subtitles are needed for the English speakers to understand what's been said. Think of movies like Dances with Wolves and things of that nature.
