Nov 26 23:53:01 http://monitor.maemo.org/ganglia/ Nov 26 23:54:04 maybe /etc/init.d/ganglia-monitor restart ? Nov 26 23:54:57 nm, that's been it Nov 26 23:56:55 * DocScrutinizer05 wonders if we could set up an icinga auto-script to kick a `ssh www /etc/init.d/ganglia-monitor restart ` when due Nov 26 23:57:32 this is a age old lingering issue Nov 26 23:58:34 * DocScrutinizer05 feels tempted to ad a `sleep 600` as first line to /etc/init.d/ganglia-monitor Nov 27 00:24:57 the modern SoCs can run a audio listener (and buzzword decoder) process on a e.h. M4 core all the time, with really low energy consumption Nov 27 00:26:45 first silly optimization: make audio-amp and A/D hardware unsuspend the M4 core only when a certain audio volume level is reached Nov 27 00:28:21 2nd optimization: the A/D "audio card" fills a 500ms buffer without any CPU support and then the CPU analyzes this buffer in a few ms and goes to sleep again Nov 27 00:30:16 those analyzing processes are hardcoded and optimized to detect "Alexa" or "Siri" or "OK google" Nov 27 00:31:22 or "OH! EY! EEEW!" which works as well as "OK google" on my android **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Nov 27 02:59:57 2019
