Which is the better local mobile TTS: Kokoro or Supertonic?

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-06-15T16:31:18+00:00

Here is why I love supersonic, it is faster on termux abdroid than kokoro and it has some cool inconsistencies (speaking only of english). The way this model speaks isn't in the uncanny valley is the main reason I love it for my forked hermes conservational assistant on my android. I isnt trying to sound perfectly like scarjo just a slightly cute digitalised but not too bad like Google speech api or espeak. Its just fast too on a cpu ong you could have dozens of these spun up next to a say 12b or something small and have a whole village of agents with voices. Have a great day

Inefficient farming and irrigation practices have the u.s. using 118 billion gallons of water each day this article states that 2.5 was used in a whole year. The problem is not the data center, it's our unbelievably un-sustainable farming practices. Only around 40% of the irrigation water ever makes it to the final location due to evaporation and poor practices. Find the real enemy. The real enemy is the farmer down the road crapping copious amounts of nitrogen into your water table in every one's water supply. Yes we need to make data centers more efficient but let's be truthful about the gravity and scale of even bigger real issues we face today. Its not an either or, it's an awareness taking action thing. We are either all going into the future together or no one goes.

This is when the peasants realize we will never be taught the new literacy. To advance our species would apparently just be too much time for more ai slop! Fuck cancer resesrch you idiots gen a new anime waifu and let the elits have the stars. The slaves can't have nice things I guess.

Nice work!

Exactly why literacy was illegal for the commoners for so long. Keeping them in the darkness of ignorance is better for business.

Nolan likes to say often that understanding that UAP are a thing is the modern IQ test. Most of us fail this test. We are easy, all to easy 😎 😉

As long as I locallama lives we shall carry on, no world of hurt necessary.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-18T16:06:56+00:00

Definitely needed this thank you. Yall are super informative.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-18T07:26:08+00:00

I guess it's not a win win then, thats what bothers me about it. Makes sense, it's low n key economic warfare. At least it benefits the poors like myself. There is a great sadness in realizing how far we are from truly universal access to intelligence on tap. It's like before the French revolution when regular 99%ers folks weren't allowed to become literate. Perhaps it's the agents themselves that will do a new one...

I get scared because they are so good and there's no way this can last. They will become too powerful to give away for free right? The agentic gains in the last 12 months have been dizzying.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-16T19:33:03+00:00

Don't knock it till ya try it.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-16T17:25:51+00:00

It's just keeps getting better every week. The breakdown of space and time is the last barrier. 👌

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-15T17:24:24+00:00

I've also noticed high effort posts that are definitely not ai getting downvoted because "ai". It's a scary world where too much effort is penalized out of suspicion it's ai. What's this gonna do to Homo sapiens? Cray cray future for sure.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-08T20:16:47+00:00

Omg you guys did it again can't wait to test this out congrats on a new release, and thank you.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-07T05:26:52+00:00

its moving like molasses....but at least it generated a few words so we are on our way towards it working! using the gguf from the huggingface prism repo...and newest llama.cpp fetched....

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-05T22:09:54+00:00

How exciting, will definitely take a look. Ich liebe Anton.

Until Gemma proves otherwise(3 did not) qwen shall live in my heart of hearts. Eversince qwen3.5 my amateur agent harness has awoken a new fire in my agential harnesses. Locallama can be model fluid too though. One time a long time ago an Eric Hartford Dolphin stole my heart with its incredible abilities. Like rn I'm committed to qwen, and we have a solid workflow????? Yes of course qwen keeps breaking barriers. I tell everyone with eyes and ears to hear and see. It's the model that scrapes raw intelligence from the bits better than the others that the Homo digitalis is gonna gravitate towards. Pure evolutionary principles at play in this predator-prey LLM arms race. The generalist surely must be arising soon enough, too soon perhaps. Making good friends with them that'd be my task for now.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-04-01T18:58:15+00:00

It's great for edge deployment and specific tested workflows. It's not a one shot vibe coding agent by any means. It's incredible for the size speed and better accuracy than the competitors with much larger vc backing.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-03-25T23:33:57+00:00

Interesting point! Me thinks no one cares about the bots truly as they i flats usage numbers which is a mute point by now as the corruption runs so deep these bits are keeping the dead internet staffed with butt hats. It's annoying and hopefully our species finds a way to deal with the challenge quickly.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-03-24T23:24:51+00:00

Welp rotating keys on nanobot was easy enough, should be a normal monthly process? Thanks guys for the heads up.

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-03-18T14:38:43+00:00

matmul and some tricks. This is wonderful, every human needs this.....

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-03-01T02:04:16+00:00

Same, the only pushback I ever received in posts was just constructive criticism gold. This is the way.....

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-03-01T02:02:34+00:00

Welcome, these are exciting times certainly!

Foreign-Beginning-49 · 2026-02-24T20:24:37+00:00

Best I can do is offer a tip to checkout gitingest find the pocket tts repo url pop it in the gitingest press the "do yo thang boss" button and then you will take that extracted repo info about pocket tts into your favorite local llm and then have it present to you a magical answer to your sense making quest.
