That’s on you then! 🙃

Those fuckers will lick anything.

I did the same! Wanted to learn golang, so I built a blog. Kept it simple and used other tech I knew already for the css and backend. Didn’t even enable uploads. This way, I learned go much faster than if I had learned it from scratch. The basics are good. But we’re not trying to be experts. We’re trying to have fun and build stuff.

Ah, probably. I’ve posted a few times and it seems to be fine. Lovely app!

I dont think so. This one doesn’t have any code or implementation details. The one I saw was fully installable but a PITA.

Mlem

That’s an excellent setup! I’ll try to replicate it when I get home!

What’s your workflow on your phone?

That looks amazing! Will check it out. Love Kokoro and love how good Apple Silicon is!

Kokoro is your best bet right now. It works wonderfully even in a docker container with no GPU. There are others but I don’t have the list right now. Will throw another update on here when I do.

The rhasspy guy was very invested in Coqui. He built a lot of his own stuff, for his home automation and such. But Coqui was superior, so he started spending time on that.

Unfortunately, the coqui team (based out of Mozilla) was very distracted and didn’t ship a lot of stuff on time or at all. It doesn’t even have basic stuff like SSML support right now, if I recall correctly. So the rhasspy guy also lost steam.

Of course, with the OpenAI model of audio generation, you’re expected to not use SSML at all and just use the black box API to get “good enough” results. That really sucks.

Oh, I just remembered which other one I wanted to mention - someone has built an open source version of NotebookLLM, complete with multi voice support. But it requires GPU, I believe. Do what you will with that. I’ll add a link if I find it.

I prefer kokoro because it’s really solid and works really well on CPU.

A little confused here. Some of the examples you mentioned are already features of obsidian (if not others).

Search all notes that have a certain text as heading? Obsidian’s general search has that. Count number of words in a note or a text selection? That’s generally available in the app.

Do you mean - I would like to reference a note in another note and in the übernote, it should tell me how many words there are in the former note? Maybe a plugin exists for that.

Or the table example - do you want to extract the text and automatically show it in another note?

Isn’t that what note embedding does?

![[OtherNote#^mytable]]

Or, if you want to actually use the data and not just show it, then I believe you need to use DataViews.

Please let us know other examples of use cases that might not be present in Obsidian. You’ve raised an interesting topic!

Also, the people who said that you should put everything in the metadata are idiots or trolls. While you can build metadata over time, it should not be your main focus. The focus should always be your notes.

Who TF is this Kai fellow?

I have a U-Green SSD reader that I needed to test an SSD in the past. The drive was a bust but the tool was neat! I’ll go looking for the HDD version too. Does… it supply power too?

thank you for your detailed answer! Quick questions -

1. Your links for the CMR list says Barracuda has 1 TB in CMR and others in SMR. So that would mean this one is definitely SMR, right? - ST2000LM015 - https://www.amazon.ca/Seagate-Barracuda-2-5-Inch-Internal-ST2000LM015/dp/B01LX13P71
2. Funnily enough, an IronWolf 4 TB CMR is a tad cheaper than a Barracuda 2 TB SMR. Why would that be? - https://www.amazon.ca/Seagate-IronWolf-Internal-Hard-Drive/dp/B09NHV3CK9/142-0881699-7695956
3. I reckon these drives won’t ship with external tooling so I could move data around… what’s my best bet to remove and clone? I have a MacBook Pro with a bunch of USB-C ports… Or would I be better off running a live distro of Linux on that Windows desktop and just using dd inside there?

I agree that more storage is better than less. I have an external drive that’s 14 TB and I couldn’t be happier with it!

I ran the test and have attached a screenshot of the results here. Does this make sense to you? The “quick” scan took well over 3 hours! 😅

Update: I see the screenshot now. It seems I ran the full scan instead! Damn!

I was just trying to open my transmission dashboard! 😄

I hope so too! I’m not running a lot on this box. Just a few containers and avahi.

I installed a thing called lm-sensors on debian and it shows me this during a time when the box is struggling -

Every 1.0s: sensors

coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Package id 0: +44.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 0: +38.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 1: +39.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 2: +39.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 3: +39.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)

acpitz-acpi-0 Adapter: ACPI interface temp1: +0.0°C (crit = +119.0°C)

Seems to be working fine.

Unless the thermal throttling limits are set by the BIOS and I’ll have to go looking into that by rebooting?

Resources also seemed ok - RAM was 2 GB used out of 16 and all the cores were at 10-15% usage, according to htop.

The problem with the tobacco analogy is that you can buy a pack of cigarettes and walk away, then study it at peace. You cannot run any kind of testing on the shithole systems of Meta without their permission and involvement. That’s how you know every such independent study will be tainted by Zuck’s dirty hands.

I set it up last night. Network share would be too easy to corrupt apparently, so I hustled copied over the files and started fresh. Once in a while, I’ll move files back to my “original” install.
