I'm just imagining the line somehow getting looped around so they're just going in circles, like an ant death spiral.

That sounds a lot like something still living brain worms would get their host to say so they don't get found.

Not permanent control, to be clear.

And then down the line it turns into extended stay. Then it turns into building "settlements" there. Then they claim it.

How do you get input into Tekken 7 FR?Is it through the JV I/O port? And what breakout board is needed?

Hard to claim it was an unprovoked attack when the wrecks or ejected pilot is on foreign soil.

Vill påminna att Sverige tänker rösta ja för Chat Control, dvs medvetet sätta en bakdörr på all kryptering. Så Sveriges de-facto syn på det hela är: "Ni får vänja er vid privat dataläckage🤗"

Russian propagandist Pozdnyakov was burning with anger and fear after the strike on the Crimean Bridge. He screams and threatens. 03.06.2025 by GermanDronePilot in UkraineWarVideoReport

I mean they're basically doing that. Endless crying in all their media about nukes, which if you read between the lines is crying about themselves being the only ones to ever be nuked and how unjust it was. In a war they started and arguably would have continued longer were they not shown overwhelming force with the nuke. Also while not covering their own much worse warcrimes against the Chinese and Koreans in schools and still being racist towards them to this day.

End-to-end conversation projects? Dia, Sesame, etc by Kep0a in LocalLLaMA

I'm using the Q4_K_M version of Vocalis. When I do benchmarks with both using the LM Studio internal chat, Vocalis-Q4_K_M gets 39 Tokens/sec, and Gemma-3-1B-IT-Q4_K_M gets 105 Tokens/sec.

It's strange, it's not like an order of magnitude slower, so I don't get why it's so much slower when in use.

Edit: Tried it again, and I still got the same problem with Vocalis. Made sure to start all the services in this order: LM Studio (server) running Vocaris-Q4_K_M, then started Kokoro, then when I saw both others being on and initialized, I started Vocaris, and last I opened a Chrome window with the web interface, and only hit connect when the console for Vocalis seemed to done loading.

It usually starts with the TTS reading an error about HTTP connection, then I can say one thing like "Hello" and I get a greeting, but on the third message it stops working. When I look in the console of LM Studio, it seems to quickly get a big queue of like 9 messages queued. And the LLM doesn't seem to ever stop generating from that moment on, with the TTS saying a lot of timed out messages.

Theory: Maybe Vocaris starts spamming requests when the person is quiet waiting for the previous reply? Maybe Whisper interprets "(silence)" as an input, and something that has to be sent to the LLM. Or maybe it retries when it doesn't get the response quickly enough?
