I seems that my Mint USB mic issue is with audacity! The mic works fine with OBS studio on Mint. As I said before it also works fine with audacity on Manjaro too!

I’m on a roll with problems (3270)
So I started MVS in hercules mainframe emulator on Manjaro. Went to start a x3270 terminal. It did not exist…no problem I’ll just install it. So I installed it. But it said it required a restart. Hardly anything requires a restart. Ok I need to try and shutdown MVS manually. Found manual said something like …
USB Mic issue
So the USB mic issue that I had on Linux Mint apparently is not an issue on Manjaro. I’m pretty sure I used it on Mint with no problems before. The problem is if I record a 10sec clip in audacity, it plays back in about as nano second. I deleted audacities setting folder with …
Large Manjaro update/So much to do
Over a GB with 227 updates. Looking at “uname -a” output doesn’t seem to be using a new kernal. Or is it? To do… Find out why. See above. Get Hugo to use relative addressing so I can move hugo static site to subfolder. See if I can use “Samson Q2U Recording and Podcasting Mic” …

VLC loop buttons
Well I’m a genious. Just as VLC has announced a big interface design, for it’s upcoming 4.0 version, I decide to figure out the meanings of the icons for looping. I’ve used VLC for years, it began in 2001, so maybe 2 decades, And never took the time to figure out the differences. They could …
Python, environments & Atom
Decided to try the Atom IDE for Python a week or two ago, working in a Python environment. And Guess what? It works great! Unlike Microsoft VS Code, Atom works the way I think it should work. I tried VS Code in an environment, and it doesn’t work. OK wait, I probably need to start …
