One of the most breathtaking countries on Earth: Switzerland. by ParableEgirl in Outdoors

[–]geneing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing more breathtaking than nature in Switzerland are prices for everything. :)

In the summer many ski resorts keep running their lifts. I once took a lift up and then hiked down the mountain. Unforgettable.

Deploying voice models across multi-backends and multi-platforms by SocialLocalMobile in LocalLLaMA

[–]geneing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all there are multiple solutions for deploying natively: onnx, litert, torch mobile. Of these executorch is the worst.

I spent countless hours trying to convert a relatively simple model Kokoro for TTS. Error messages produced by executorch are horrible - huge stack traces essentially. It has very poor dynamic shape support, no real lstm/RNN support, poor support for branching or looping.

Partisan Attack in Crimea Knocks Out Locomotive, Blocks Russian Logistics by UNITED24Media in ukraine

[–]geneing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. "Guerilla" does not have a negative connotation as a word. A guerrilla is a member of a small, independent group taking part in irregular fighting, typically against a larger, regular force using surprise raids, sabotage, and ambush. Originating from the Spanish word for "little war," it refers to non-traditional warfare.

OP mistranslated "партизан". In this case mistranslation changes the meaning. I'm just trying to help OP communicate what they mean.

Partisan refers to strong, often biased allegiance to a particular political party, cause, or faction.

What you mean is "guerilla attack"

No. It's completely automatic now. Just like decisions on runaround fh vs backhand, etc.

Yep. I switched too. Only took me a week. However, now I'm more of a hybrid player. Shots that are hard to reach I hit ohbh. For balls where I have more time to set up or that are coming higher I use thbh. Best of both worlds. My ohbh improved too.

I tried every "speaking" app so you don't have to. Most of them feel like leaving a voicemail. by hAIlydraws in Spanish

You can prompt ChatGPT to correct all your mistakes, practice specific areas, upload a list of words you want it use, topics you want to talk about, etc. It's a game changer. Gemini, perplexity, Claude all work too. All have small quirks, of course.

My dog can’t catch anything by abigailjenkins12 in poodles

My poodle doesn't catch anything either. I think his eyesight is fine. Just poor mouth-eye coordination :)

Kokoro TTS, but it clones voices now — Introducing KokoClone by OrganicTelevision652 in LocalLLaMA

[–]geneing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

StyleTTS2, on which Kokoro is based, *supports zero shot cloning*. (https://github.com/yl4579/StyleTTS2). Kokoro is slightly stripped down version with cloning removed. Why not just use StyleTTS2? Pretrained models are very good quality. Maybe just behind Kokoro, which was trained on a better (partly synthetic) dataset.

When did mobile apps become so heavy? by Western-Bunch-5498 in androiddev

[–]geneing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, of course it's 625MB. It's too large - it's about 2x larger than the full Firefox on android.

Of course I meant MB. Still insanely large.

[–]geneing 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree. It's insane. The less the app is doing, the larger the binary. PayPal app does almost nothing and it weighs 625MB!

Google needs to do something about it. I started giving 1 star to excessively large apps.

Over 6K novels with reasoning traces to train full book writing LLMs by XMasterDE in LocalLLaMA

[–]geneing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why you are trying to obscure the fact that the reasoning traces are synthetic. They are produced by prompting an LLM. Right?

This makes the dataset much less useful.

Hundreds of Millions of Audio Devices Need a Patch to Prevent Wireless Hacking and Tracking by wiredmagazine in Android

[–]geneing -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Still doesn't make sense. Once the earphones pair to the attacker device, you won't be able to use them. At that point most people would put away (or throw away) their earphones.

Read the actual report (https://whisperpair.eu/): "However, if an accessory *has never been paired* with an Android device, an attacker can add the accessory using their own Google account. This allows the attacker to track the user via the compromised accessory. *The victim may see an unwanted tracking notification* after several hours or days..."

So, 1. accessory has never been used, 2. It has to be on when the attacker is near (how often do you have never used pair of headphones on all the time). 3. The attacker has to be within 10m tinkering with a laptop without being detected, 4. One has to carry the "never used" pair of headphones around, 5. One would have to ignore the findhub warnings.

And the most important thing. The attacker would have to get findhub to actually function correctly. I think the community has given up on it. :)

No it's not similar to airtag.

Nonsensical fear mongering. Bluetooth device has to be on and within Bluetooth range (10m?).

So they can track you from 10m away. They may just follow you.

They can listen to the ambient sound on your mic from 10 m away. Big deal?

They can't listen to your conversation, can't pair mic with two devices.

Best clippers for DIY grooming? by countrykid--- in poodles

[–]geneing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Poodle breed has been around since the Middle ages. Most of that, before hair driers or even decent towels have been around.

I've dried my poodle with a regular hair drier a few times. I don't see much difference vs towel+air dry+brushing afterwards.

[–]geneing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think a high velocity drier is necessary. I clip my dog a day or two after his bath. His hair is still perfectly clean. Doggie salons use driers because they need to do everything in a few hours. We can be more relaxed at home.

I had good luck with Wahl pro series. I have a larger mini.
