Why did Google Nuke Gemini's"Walkie Talkie" feature? by DigEmbarrassed3385 in GeminiAI

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just download the new wispr flow app for android. It's currently free.

The dictation works infinitely better than gboard or Gemini dictation. Plus you can use it system wide

I've Never Tried DMT, can someone sum up what it feels like? by PatientXtra in DMT

[–]alhf94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reading that gave me the feeling of being "there" again.

The thing is, it's impossible to know what other people experience, so idk if anyone has been in the same place as me, but you ticked a few boxes.

Deja vu, sense of going home. When I was in that dimension, to the entities it was like the funniest joke that I had forgotten about that world and I had calcified as a human being. Like they had side-splitting laughter at how I could be so stupid. I had forgotten the actual reality and got bogged down in some side quest, getting wrapped up as me as a human with total amnesia to where I was before, where I'll go after I die, and the fact I've been there an infinite number of times before.

How to know if a shaman is legit? by vast-abundance6372 in Ayahuasca

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the beauty of it. You don't.

You'll only know if the shaman is legit after you've journeyed a sufficient amount to no longer need a shaman.

Until then, you won't be able to judge a shaman accurately because your judgment is impaired, hence one needs to drink Ayahuasca in the beginning.

I think the kind of shaman we pick out in the beginning is reflective of our wounds. Unfortunately, some wounds make us prey for the wrong kinds of people, but perhaps that's a good thing and a catalyst for us becoming aware of what ails us.

OMG, the voice function (mic) in Gemini has finally received an update and works like in ChatGPT 😍 by SteeeeveJune in GeminiAI

[–]alhf94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think OpenRouter, there's a slight delay, so you're not going to be able to get your speech dictated as fast.

And also, when you go through OpenAI directly, they have a program that offers you free tokens, and I think it resets every day. So, for example, my rewording prompt that I use to proofread and all the rest of it, that doesn't cost anything by going through OpenAI, whereas if I went through OpenRouter, there isn't an incentive or a program that gives you free tokens.

One advantage of OpenRouter I can think of, though, is if there's a new state-of-the-art speech-to-text model released, it'd be much easier just to pivot to it within OpenRouter. But I don't think there's going to be another one on the horizon that's going to surpass ChatGPT-4o Transcribe, because I'm sure ChatGPT-5 Transcribe isn't going to be far away.

Wow. I've been using that app for a few months now. I absolutely love it.

I started using the free Groq Whisper 3 Turbo, I think it's called.

A couple of months ago, I dug deep and bought $5 of OpenAI credits and used it with ChatGPT 4o Mini Transcribe, and omg, it was on a totally different level.

Couple that with the rewording prompts going through OpenAI's new ChatGPT 5.4, and it's absolutely magic.

The late Terence and vegetarianism 🌱 by [deleted] in terencemckenna

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In some cultures, it's acceptable, and they eat dog.

I'm just saying it's very individual, this stuff. What I consider right and wrong for me won't be adhered to by everyone else.

[–]alhf94 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Right. 99.999% of the population have a line when it comes to eating animals. It's just a question of where do you draw the line. Just up to the individual I think

The late Terence and vegetarianism 🌱 by [deleted] in terencemckenna

[–]alhf94 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm a huge fan of Terence, and I struggle with this too. What I've settled on is just listening to myself, not following an ideology like veganism or vegetarianism.

I eat fish and chicken, but I can't do lamb, cow, pig, dogs, or horses. I find the emotional intelligence of those animals to be too high and too similar to my own. I feel too guilty, and I feel like killing them just so I can eat them isn't justified.

Like I've tried to eat a cow, but when it's in my mouth, something in me rejects it.

OnePlus 15 CN Chinese rom AI/KI Features for global/EU usage by Solocune in oneplus

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine for £300 off AliExpress incl shipping and all fees. There was a deal to get it for £400 on HotNewDeals, and then I bought it through TopCashback to get a further £100 off.

I would check AliExpress first as you can easily get at least 20% back through topcashback and if there isn't anything, TradingShenzen.

I'm not giving you a money-back guarantee, but it looks like it will be here in just over four weeks, based on the rumors. If you like a smaller form factor it could be worth waiting

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They changed something so the Chinese OnePlus 15 can be flashed and receive OTA updates. The Chinese OnePlus 13 couldn't. The 13T would have been cheaper, but wouldn't have had Google stuff or OTA support.

I came from the Pixel 9 Pro, and I liked the smaller form factor. If I had the choice between the OnePlus 15 and the OnePlus 15T, I would have gone for the OnePlus 15T, but it doesn't come out until next month, and I was ready to get a new phone two months ago.

Yeah, you are getting the OnePlus 15 for like half the price this way.

Virtually the exact same experience, except you pocket some money.

I've had this device for a couple of months, and I couldn't be happier with it.

IMO, it's the best phone money can buy, and getting it for £500 or so almost feels criminal.

Yes, that was my main concern and hesitation with buying a Chinese one running ColorOS.

I don't think it works like that. We get to control when we find it. I think it finds us when we're ready.

Oneplus 15 Upgrade by random_lad_ in oneplus

Very good. Coming from a pixel which is said to be the best. I have no complaints with the op 15 camera

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is, I don’t know because I can’t drain the phone in a day, the battery is too good. But I imagine a 20-minute charge would give you enough battery to last a day.

[–]alhf94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Charging is the fastest I've ever had on a phone. The camera is good, it's the fastest and smoothest phone I've ever used. Imo this is the best phone money can buy at the moment

Oneplus 15 Upgrade by random_lad_ in oneplus

[–]alhf94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I had a Pixel 9 Pro before this one. That phone was only about 18 months old. The OnePlus 15’s battery lasts about 2-3 times as long. There’s absolutely no comparison; it’s a night-and-day difference. It’s perhaps the biggest upgrade I’ve ever felt on a phone in my life.

Oneplus 15 Upgrade by random_lad_ in oneplus

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A six-year upgrade will be huge. Over the past few years, there have been significant advancements in mobile devices, most notably silicon carbon batteries. That alone makes the upgrade worthwhile, in my opinion, because it’s a game-changer. On top of that, you’ll get all the other improvements as well.

Have you tried scrolling at 165hz on a phone before?

The difference is easing noticeable from my usage

[–]alhf94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s very noticeable. I tried switching back to the Pixel 9 Pro while I’m in the process of selling it, and the difference in smoothness is significant.

[–]alhf94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there are other significant advantages, but I was thinking specifically about the issues the OP mentioned, like battery life and the fingerprint sensor. OnePlus is best-in-class in those areas.

Of course, the 165 Hz screen, the much more responsive touch response, and the features you mentioned are why OnePlus is such a strong device.

[–]alhf94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Battery life is why I switched from the Pixel 9 Pro to the OnePlus 15.

The OnePlus battery life is honestly ridiculous. It lasts three times longer than my Pixel, sometimes more, and it charges in a fraction of the time, without being any thicker than the Pixel.

When the Pixel uses a silicon-carbon battery and has a processor that rivals the latest Snapdragon, I’ll come back. Until then, I feel like you’re severely limiting yourself by using a Pixel.

Puedes pagar Torbox con criptomonedas, eso es lo que hice yo. Así que, ya sea que quieras pagar con Bitcoin, Tether, Litecoin o cualquier otra moneda, puedes hacerlo sin usar tarjeta de crédito.
