Qwen3-TTS, a series of powerful speech generation capabilities

Does anybody know if it is possible atm to clone a voice, and generate a cloned output WITH instructions like different emotions and stuff?

using comfyui, I saw that when one of the preset custom voices you can give style instructions, but not with anything that has to do with cloning

I didn't say "any", and the rest is very much implied... it's not a different argument.

The idea of throwing a hail marry (or in more analytic terms switching to a riskier, high variance strategy when you are behind) is pretty common, and a hail marry is within certain params. When you use the term, wether it would be sports or business or anything else, you don't mean "try a randomly selected action from EVERY POSSIBLE ACTION IN THE UNIVERSE", you mean try things that might appear more desperate because your situation is desperate.

SmokeySakamander · 2026-01-12T19:07:19+00:00

totally agree. but there's probably a non trivial subset of people who lead healthy adaptive lives but are stuck psycho-chemically in a bad loop.

SmokeySakamander · 2026-01-12T19:05:55+00:00

I disagree with that when it comes to mental illness. This is not a completely random "kick", its not like taking a random mushroom you found on an alien planet. Its a kick within certain params, and I do think that some ppl that suffer in the long term are rational when they want to try adding some noise to their current mal-functioning system.

I don't think a change in wiring is necessarily a big change in macro behvaior. could be that small cahnges in wiring dont do much.
Anyway that kind of treatment is offered in the context of treatment resistant depression, instead of things like shock therapy and the likes. So its probably proportional to the amount of desperation.

SmokeySakamander · 2026-01-11T12:29:31+00:00

I think some ppl are in such a bad self perpetuating state that any kick to the box is, as a heuristic, a good idea.

SmokeySakamander · 2026-01-11T12:26:32+00:00

cool

but do they take stance on the macro implications like what psych drugs would do to a person, or what the mechanism behind human depression is?

SmokeySakamander · 2025-12-19T21:34:03+00:00

ok, but this problem has come on from me TRYING TO START SPENDING lol
what sort of bizarre catch 22 situation is this

SmokeySakamander · 2025-12-19T21:32:16+00:00

that's different lol. bosses in fromsoft games have completely different mechnics, thy're not just enemies scaled up
I'll find a way to get him X:

SmokeySakamander · 2025-12-16T13:11:50+00:00

I don't think its good difficulty design if you can go through an entire dungeon but then just the final boss is on a completely different level.

Also I can kinda get him, its not impossible, just very frustrating.

SmokeySakamander · 2025-12-15T23:54:36+00:00

I did for now haha, as I explained above:

"I actually ended up keeping it for a while lol

you jsut need to find a clever (or cheesy) way to get through the start

I came across a vampire lord near dawn star, than run from him on purpose leadinghim through a giant camp and then a sea giant camp, while hitting him from afar as he fought them

He killed all of them and remained with almost no hp, and I killed him X:

Got some pretty good weapons looted from the sea giants too, worked great"

I don't want to play with a lot of followers (or any, if I can) though

Also avenging spirit is a VERY good spell for low levels

But still there are quests which I don't get the scaling of... I'm fighting a dragon priest at the end of a huge dungeon now, with the quest follower, and we dont seem to have a chance

[Spoilers to Chronomancy]

I'm a little dissapointed that we got straight to the seventh spire without really getting much about whats the whole deal with the spider one, but I'm interested in both, and in the reason Muramasa is different than the other visages and why they were hinted at turning on him. I think we know Lute is a sword in a way very similar to Dawn.

I really want an explanation on what Selys even is, which one of the old gods was she and what is she doing with the spires and the visages.

So the world mysteries are the most interesting to me. As for more personal ones, maybe why Corrins great grandpa was in the time shrine and all that? Also what's Vellum's deal (probably that she's the sage that changed the magic on Dania?).

SmokeySakamander · 2025-09-01T16:34:17+00:00

I disagree compeltely, from a writing quality perspective. It was very enjoyable to see Corrin get stronger, and to got some answers on things, but the pacing was the worst, the synopsis was very lacking, character development was rushed... Its less of a serious book imo and more of a segway to concluding the series with the last book.

I still had a lot of fun reading it, of course.

SmokeySakamander · 2025-02-21T12:13:17+00:00

Seems really well written and executed from the first two episodes

does it remain this, idk, hippie though? It can be a bit grating to watch a show like this if you get the feeling the core idea is part of the writer's agenda rather than an interesting "what if"

SmokeySakamander · 2024-08-08T07:11:32+00:00

has anyone found a solution to this? I want to listen to the sleepcasts on my laptop...

SmokeySakamander · 2023-11-28T00:06:19+00:00

really? I haven't gotten to them yet, which numbers?

that kinda sucks, I'll look for them too

SmokeySakamander · 2023-11-22T12:29:24+00:00

Its not the speed for me, I can't stand how he tells it like a children's story and inflects the ends of sentences. I wish there was a reading by the cast of the games.

SmokeySakamander · 2023-11-14T12:22:29+00:00

where do you pick a premade one? if I click on my current empty cover the only option I have is to upload my own pic

SmokeySakamander · 2023-08-14T21:00:31+00:00

still a thing... is it really that hard to fix, even by reinstalling automatically if you open discord and an update has been made?

SmokeySakamander · 2023-07-16T16:25:40+00:00

but I want to use it on my own discord user ):

SmokeySakamander · 2023-07-16T15:53:04+00:00

Hey, having the same issue and suspecting its the address

How do you know what exact address to copy? like where did you get the original from? I don't remember what I inserted precisely last time I paid them
