    Thanks! Had pretty much the same thought process as you, so I made this little tool (yesnotice) to do pretty much that. Its not perfect, but I've been using it a lot and its workin…

    > that we converted the file to 8 bit audio this actually works surprisingly well! I did the same thing for a device I made based on the Pi Pico[1], where audio is processed every …

    It would be great if you could make a GH issue explaining your use case. I try to reproduce bugs and could possibly find a solution.

    Thanks for the kindness :) I use it the same way actually! I don't use any Apple products so that's the major roadblock for me to develop against iOS...

    This is actually not uncommon at all for anything on the internet. You can see for yourself actually using this command: ``` > traceroute news.ycombinator.com ``` On my computer, m…

    Thanks! The usage has only gone up - now in 2023 the croc public relay has been using 20 TB of bandwidth every month :| I like to write software that runs forever, but this will ge…

    I think the main advantage that I like croc over many utilities is that it can resume file transfers from where it left off. I'm not sure if wormhole has this yet. Of course torren…

    > croc's biggest failure is that it doesn't really do NAT hole punching, so you're limited to the speed of the relay. I'd like to test this. Can you give me an example of a program…

    Yeah potrace can do the same thing - trace a path of a bitmap. (Imagemagick can too). In my tests (with lots of line drawings) I felt autotrace generally had better results. Wish I…

    Thanks for the feedback. I get the confusion. If you searched for your town and only see "likely not available" there is likely none available and the "recent" would just be empty.…

    That's too bad! Some cities are definitely more active in the public piano scene.
