Ive used it and love it. I convert PDFs I read for work to ebooks and then audiobooks. Then I listen to the content at the gym and count it as work hours :)
Nothing beats a good narrator, there will always be a place for performance and folly noise. This is a useful tool for the content you have to consume
Best after the local library.
I’d you dont mind spending money, get a yoto. Kids LOVE them and you can make your own cards https://support.yotoplay.com/en-US/make-a-card-from-your-own-recordings-and-create-playlists-21683
A yoto with headphones is cool, but kid content can be cool
Putting up a synapse server in the public cloud and building bridges to the apps people use. At least I get my messaging in one place
I agree how these conclusions were developed is trash; however, there is real value to understanding the impact alignments have on a model.
There is a reason public llms don’t disclose how to make illegal or patented drugs. Llms shy away from difficult topics like genocide, etc.
It isnt by accident, they were aligned by corps to respect certain views of reality. All the llm does is barf out a statically viable response to a prompt. If they are weighted you deserve to know how
I think this, like anything tech, depends on the usecase.
As an example, if I was an ethnographer working to document rural cooking techniques on the Isle of Skye I might work with this group to stand up a public instance of mealie. Success would depend on the project being a collective work though. Me working with the collectives to meet the challenges of the project over a loosely defined set of time.
I think the above could be a big success. On the opposite side, I would not count on the collective to host and maintain my personal tech stack. Maybe I’d pay them to advise, but little more
This is cool. Thanks.
A lot of protons IP space is blocked. I’d bet every major provider has a significant number of IPs blocked.
Reddit blocks when they can to attempt and force you to expose your real IP. Once given they can associate it to your activity and make that sweet sweet money they crave.
I love how reddit keeps me from relapsing by auto-blocking me cuz vpn

I hate that your example is the reason I’m standing link warden up. Sometimes ms leaves me thinking I’ve gone mad
They are a corporation. They exist to make money for ahareholders. The reputational harm of mass surveiling their peer corpos is colossal. Sure, their could absolutely be a rouge individual and we see it time and time again, but mass scale hovering of another companies IP? Nah, expecting that borders conspiracy.
Microsoft and their business practices are shit. It is very much a take it or leave it scenerio. Amazon, the competition, just went all in on M365 services for their operations. You expect that MS is actively stealing their data to enrich themselves. Sure, possible. Their teck would allow it, but I bet the service contract mandates consent and observation anytime an MS agent engages with Amazon’s deployment. And I’d bet it all they honor that contract.
Why risk everything on spying? They are doing just fine sucking up the publics data when contracts aren’t in place. Individuals should stay the fuck away but big coropos is another game entirely
I work with our complianceand privacy attorneys and the contracts we maintain protect our data, state it is ours, and guarantees it is not used to train on ai.
I hate ms as much as anyone hear but it is misguided to think no one is protecting your or your companies intersects.
I used it today to communicate my feelings on a topic I can’t control. Like, me venting isnt going to improve my or the questioners situation.
In principal I am against thought-termination. Sometimes, like a good dog, you gotta put a thought out of its misery
Lizard-King, Salamander-Witch, Toad-Knight, etc …
Thank you! I have needed and IOS app for family. I was waiting for audiobookshelf but can offer audio today :)
So on one I would suggest frigate. Those support (I think) and pci-e coral ai chip.
Home assistant would be great bare metal
check university and government surplus. EBay is rich with good models too
Audiobookshelf or booksonic to host the media. As mentioned, populate it with content from your library
They have a straight forward application process every week in IRC
