• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which selfhosted TTS provider should I use with home assistant?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t know much about the training side of things, but I have Piper set up with home assistant using the Wyoming protocol and it just goes. Some of the out-of-the-box voices are pretty decent too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google just lost a big antitrust trial. Now it has to face another.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Save you a click:

  The second case that begins next month began with a lawsuit filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia by the Justice Department and eight states in December 2020, during former President Trump’s administration.

  Prosecutors allege that since at least 2015 Google has thwarted meaningful competition and deterred innovation through its ownership of the entities and software that power the online advertising technology market.

  I feel personally attacked.

  More words than the article… negative savings!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get the ketchup.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ten years ago I’d say “wtf” but then I had ube keso (purple yam and cheese) ice cream. I don’t understand why it is not awful and is in fact delicious, and now I think the only valid way to judge an ice cream flavor (within reason) is to ignore the list of contents and just taste it.

  Neat! Very well executed.

  Gives me “The Expanse” crossed with “Picard” intro vibes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Using AI, researchers identify a new class of antibiotic candidates that can kill a drug-resistant bacterium⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  A key innovation of the new study is that the researchers were also able to figure out what kinds of information the deep-learning model was using to make its antibiotic potency predictions. This knowledge could help researchers to design additional drugs that might work even better than the ones identified by the model.

  That is awesome. I wonder if the techniques that they have used to expose the machine learning “black box” process can be applied to other models - from my understanding of it, that would be pretty big news in and of itself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Changed ISP and server now unreachable⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah that’s great. It wasn’t an option when I had to get it sorted but that was a few years ago. The self-service options in the app are excellent for basic config and troubleshooting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Changed ISP and server now unreachable⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have AussieBB and had to give them a call at one point to allow inbound traffic so I could expose my self-hosted server. They flicked a switch for my account and then everything came good.

  If you give them a ring and explain what you’re trying to do it should get sorted out very quickly. Their customer service staff are very knowledgeable and friendly - they’re the best RSP I’ve ever had.
