Audio synthesis speed is one thing, but is the output _intelligible to a human_ at 1,000wpm? That's the sort of thing Eloquence is being used for, according to the article.
There are current efforts along these lines! For example, permitting is a huge bottleneck - software could be part of the solution (carefully and thoughtfully integrated, of course). Disclosure: I work at govstream.ai -…
I recently bought a really cheap Android Auto screen for my car. It had a USB-C power input. Suspicious, I opened up the supplied cigarette power adapter. The USB power pins were hooked straight to the car battery rail.…
For full open source, there's Speeduino and FOME (newer). I've used both for my cars. https://speeduino.com/home/ https://wiki.fome.tech/
+1. My basic structure is a big share/ directory that is mounted on all my machines (over sshfs + tailscale if need be). There's some basic top-level organization (Projects, Financial Documents, Photos) but other than…
Not op, but in my bubble: - DRM. - Owner-unfriendly device locks (such as manufacturer-controlled secure boot or locked-down OSes). - Inability to audit network traffic from one's own devices, i.e. an IoT device. -…
On a whim a few years ago I wrote an engineering proposal on my Pentium MMX using Word 2003. It opened within 2 seconds via the aging hard disk. Today even LibreOffice feels a bit overwrought. I've found AbiWord…
Super, I'll check it out. I'm on Firefox in Linux (Kubuntu) using a plain old mouse - pretty sure I tried a right click pan. I tried again and it still didn't work. Also- clicking around on the canvas I get: Uncaught…
Thanks for the reply! If this information were available on the landing page, I'd have felt a lot more comfortable investing the time to try the tool out. I do appreciate how far you can explore even without an account.…
Separately from the software itself, I'm left with questions about the context in which this tool is provided. - Is this a passion project? Commercial? Is it free? Will it always be free? What's the pricing model? - How…
They specify different things. The wire side of a bulkhead connector may be male or female. Some connectors (i.e. the Molex ones you used to see at Radio Shack) are even designed so you can make a custom arrangement of…
Or unplugging the internal antennas. Only on equipment you own, of course.
If you're on a cheaper lower speed subscription, you can often find compatible modems at thrift stores for a couple dollars. People upgrade to faster tiers and unload their old perfectly serviceable equipment good for a…
I just rigged up something similar: a DBUS listener for PulseAudio mic activity that publishes MQTT events to Home Assistant via discovery. No device config needed. I use hallway RGB lights to signal status ("purple =…
I use it indirectly via Tube Archivist to get vastly better search. I've mirrored most technical stuff I've seen, and I can do fine-grained text search over video descriptions, audio transcripts, and even comments. This…
I trained a Markov chain on a rushed project's JIRA backlog and created a game for our team celebration. The game, playable on a Zipit Z2 handheld (think GameBoy SP with a keyboard, ran Debian), challenged players to…
There are photos in the article references! I didn't find one of the kitchen. https://curlytales.com/this-was-the-worlds-longest-bus-route... https://www.techtraveleat.com/story-of-london-culcutta-bus-s...
I run a local Tube Archivist mirror and having live, predictable full-text search of descriptions, transcripts, and user comments has been a breath of fresh air (it's backed by ElasticSearch, so you can go full-contact…
They're also a cheap and easy source of tape heads for projects/replacements.
I've noticed that here as well, specifically with Proton. Some sort of cultural quirk I suppose. I'll keep using their service, until I see some more tangible criticism on their security. I've had positive experiences…
I really don't follow. Define programming in your context? Is it distinct from encoding physical structures like wings? Is it meaningful to separate physical structures and structures invoking physical behavior? A…
True. It still hurts though. I _want_ to care. I do my best work, with least effort, when I'm solving a real problem with people I care about. I enjoy thinking back about stuff I made, knowing it's out there doing its…
Are you suggesting they had a data loss? Or is this a quip?
Could also be that privacy-conscious users are not easy to make money from with a free service. Ten gigs of email is a lot of email. I wonder what the percentage of paying users was.
Was it an aspect of Proton that made you switch? Seeing it get mentioned negatively all over this comment section is making me a little concerned.
