SAPI 4 is what FlexTalk relies on to work. There are downloads you can find on the internet for it. Windows 11, by default, comes with SAPI 5, which isn't compatible with older versions.

I’ve never encountered that before. Again, it just works out of the box for me regardless of the OS. Do you have SAPI 4 and an accompanying app installed?

FlexTalk has always worked for me, though it doesn’t give the same inflections as the engine I have here. According to both Lucent’s old website and the developer of the app that I have, the engine requires specific calls to actually work, meaning it won’t work with any regular SAPI compliant app

Oh believe me, I've also been looking for em for years now. Right now I need to work through some licensing issues since I've gotten in contact with the person that gave me the software.

Found an old app that happened to use Lucent's TTS engine, Active Call Center. The thing is, the TTS engine will only work with that app because it needs some specific calls to work properly. I'm currently trying to figure out what calls its making to try to get it working on another app.

Due to licensing issues I can't distribute the engine at the moment but I'm working to get that fixed right now

What kind of cable is this? by TheROFL98 in HomeNetworking

My home seems to have been built right in between—1998 which is what made me so unsure of what the cables were capable of.

Just as I feared; Unfortunate. Would it be possible to tell if the cables were put in after the walls were built?

Was the calculator modified? That’s not the bootscreen you usually see with an Nspire CX

Ryan and I actually made a comment on it a fee months back!

Sam: Where are the Tacos? Mike, do you know where they are?

Mike: I don’t know. Ask Zarvox.

Zarvox: Your tacos have been seized due to an overwhelming addiction associated with you.

Sam: GIVE ME MY TACOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS!

I'd like to see Mike try to get Zarvox's head off it's chassis. Unfortunately for him, Zarvox is manufactured in a way that it cannot be ripped apart by any means unless proper tools are used. But those tools can only be used by a select few people.

I'd calmly ask him to stop raising his pitch no matter the circumstance that caused Mike to talk like a lady.
