The offline AI that I tried a few months ago probably needed training on the noise environment to get decent results. I forget which ones I tried but likely the ones with extensions already in Oobabooga Textgen. I was messing with text to speech mostly, but some of the ones that do TTS also have packages and examples for STT. Nothing I tried for offline generation was good enough to speak as an AI prompt without manual corrections.

Any word on the next generation of matrix math acceleration hardware? Is anything currently getting integrated into the kernel? Where are the gource branches looking interesting for hardware pulls and merges?

Yeah, but neither makes sense any more. I use yymmdd in my default file naming for natural sorting hierarchy. I just don't think in that context. I guess that makes this post an interesting reflection from a couple of extra angles.

Our US 3 digit area codes for phone number regions are likely not really paralleled elsewhere in the world either. It's interesting all the little cultural subtleties that shape the mind.

Like at 7:04 you might think of July 4th. All numerical dates are represented on a 12 hour clock (e: if you're using mmdd). I'm asking if your pattern recognition software is picking up on such a meaningless correlation and giving it some pleasant side effect or if that is not a very common mental connection.

I mean oddities mostly. I corelate the area code of my highschool love, and often the birthday of another. It has no significance beyond a few pleasant memories, but it is just one of life's oddities for me. Do you experience similar oddities?

"Brands"

Monsanto doesn't even advertise but I bet 90% of what I eat is their brand

...made my first fermented sauce as an effective replacement for soy/fish sauce last week... and my first fermented lemon/garlic/ginger spice yesterday. At the grocery store I play a childish game with myself; in the isles, the floor is lava... fuck brands. I'll make it all, and make it better, by myself. - an American millennial

 

I think it was on Ben G Thomas on YT that I've seen academic references saying various ways dinosaurs likely sounded like birds in their vocalizations. Do you know of any scientifically grounded reconstructions of possible sounds?

There were just a bunch of song birds outside my window, and my mind drifted onto this. I want to picture something like the first few scenes of the original Jurassic Park but with feathered songbird caricatures whistling and tweeting either at some monstrously low tone or some ridiculously high pitch for their size like a bunch of Mike Tyson's frolicking around.

Thanks so much for all these details. I wouldn't have seen the info otherwise.

I know this is not technically the right place to mention, but why not whitelist a USB connection like whatever the equivalent to a /udev rule is in Android? It certainly doesn't bother me to unlock my device, to then plug in USBC headphones if that is the easiest setup and interface for users.

The use case I am thinking of is while riding a bicycle. I've ripped my helmet off in a hurry many times to avoid a bee sting. Stuff like that tends to unplug headphones. Or like comminuting home as it gets dark and I throw on a jacket and need to unplug and get situated. I'll have to unplug with half damp gloves. I'm probably not going to get it unlocked without taking off my glove. Again, it is no big deal. It would be nice though if there was an advance option to whitelist a specific vendor ID and device ID, either by entering it manually or a more streamlined way of capturing the info after the device has been mounted.

Thanks for all the work you folks do!

Not correlated, it was the direct cause. Republican corruption at its finest. I guarantee there was a VPN/ISP lobby behind this.

Everything will be consumed by the US election and whatever conflict arises as a result. This will result in the first organized broader scope violence since the 1860's. I expect a Kennedy level conspiracy type event that will shape the next decade or more. Getting the guy out of office resulted in a failed coup, and the man is not in jail or dead. That alone shows that the country is dead in the water. This is like Brexit; fuck around and find out how much worse in can be. It was the same with Hitler. Inaction makes it worse because it emboldens monsters. Either way, now is the time to become a tin foil hat vender.

 

Like where is the goto psych/CS UI 101 class/book/YT that over simplifies but grounds someone with no background or previous knowledge? Maybe something like the "Blender Doughnut" of great UI design?

I've changed UI twice with an app recently. I have a slight intuitive grasp of what I don't like, but I lack the language and depth in this niche to express the emotional response well. I have no clue where to start with my own designs if I ever felt motivated to create one.

What is the story on all the porn shorts attributed to RE?

We would be ~1000 years in the future right now without Abrahamic faiths.
