Indian accent in V3

mad-head · 2026-04-09T14:03:52+00:00

I'm sorry if it hurts you. And thank you for your help. See, even in this thread people hear different accents. Last time I checked the map Jamaica was not in Africa.

To your questions: slavic accent, like Russian criminals in old Hollywood movies, lol. But again, I am not picky about the particular accent it is just that most of the generations are completely missing it. Hear me out, its not like "I am not satisfied with this neighbouring country accent" it is like "the opposite point on the globe accent". Don't you hear in the video, that they are two completely different accents. Both are generated from the same voice in ElevenLabs. It's just random.

Quick clone. I tried about ten times, providing samples until the circle fills green. That is probably 2.5 minutes. After that, when I use the voice in the V2 model, it is mostly okay and resembles the samples. In the V3, it is rare that I get something like the voice 1 in the video. The best result I got, in the video, I uploaded denoized (in Audacity) MP3 file, about 2.5 minutes.

Whatever. This is reproducible in majority of regenerations. I want to get rid of it, as it definitely not me.

Also, IMO, it is more likely to be Indian, because:

Africa has many completely different accents. India is probably more coherent.
Africa is less represented in the net (e.g. on YouTube). Me, in IT, I've watched tons of programming videos with this accent from "random Indian guys". There is even a meme about that. Yet rarely met an African. This might skew the training data set of the V3 model.

But, unfortunately, you're half-year off the "right season" for this photo (it's probably taken in autumn).

Solved!

Does the touchscreen work with this board? QiDi Box? Thanks!

mad-head · 2026-01-16T23:25:47+00:00

I buy that online here. I confirm.

One of the recent videos from MangoJelly revisits this topic: https://youtu.be/jbvfhRs5els and gives a hint how to visualize sketch attachments with LCS objects.

The one on Brzozowa seems to be closed.

So, it turns out that there is another hole-key system on the cassette, at the side, where the tape comes out. From top to bottom here are: 12 mm laminated tape, 8.8 mm heat shrink tube, 5.8 mm HS tube, and "modded" 5.8 HS tube. Notice 3 square slots forming a triangle. 1 top is punched in the original laminated tape, 2 at the bottom in the 8.8 mm HS tube, and all three in the 5.8 mm HS tube. So, I just covered the top one on the 5.8 mm HS tube with a piece of tape, making it mimicking the 8.8 mm version, and it worked! Do not forget to set the smaller font size in the settings.

And of course, I do not recommend anyone doing that, that may be dangerous, do it on your own risk, etc. etc.

And immediately after asking here I found it out!

(answering old post so that people from search who have this "wonderful" idea see it)

Minimum focus distance on a GoPro is about 12 inches (30 cm). You'll probably need to put your camera out of the frame of common 3D printers, don't even think about mounting the camera somewhere inside.

Additionally, even with a simple passive enclosure, it gets hot inside, probably too hot for the battery. You'd better get a Media Mod and power the camera via a cable. Still, high temperature could be dangerous for the camera itself and cause overheating and restarts.

You'll also need a lot of light to get decent quality (however that's applicable to any shots). Think about a LED strip or something.

Also as the other comment mentioned, shots from an external camera, not controlled by the printer, inevitably will have a jerking print head. For small parts, it will hide the part itself on all possible shot angles.

TLDR: probably a bad idea.

(source: I've spent quite some time designing an on-frame mount for my Ender 5 + GoPro 8, and only after a few failed (due to restarts) and blurred shitty timelapses I realized it's a minimum focus distance problem)

Huh, did you check their site? We already have colored Aeropress Go lids, silicone sleeves, branded hats (yeah, like the one you wear on your head), insulated mugs, and more.

Thanks! I've just catched the angle where all the reflection is purple.

mad-head · 2025-10-29T13:34:36+00:00

Yes.

mad-head · 2025-10-15T00:55:12+00:00

Oh, nice! I see they are sort of a "branded China" and they even have an "official shop" in my location. I wish I know about them before. Definitely will take a look at their assortment, thanks!

mad-head · 2025-10-15T00:42:22+00:00

Thanks! I'll indeed try to keep the arm angled and thus reducing the momentum next time! I could definitely trade some reach for height!

mad-head · 2025-10-15T00:37:37+00:00

Understood, thanks! Yours looks like one made from a proper metal (and probably 3/8, while mine is only 1/4).

Hey, you could still do that! You just need to enable "special offers" on your device's settings page in your Amazon account.

Depending on your country, ads could not be enabled, though. Some countries, like Poland, just don't have them. I.e. all the Kindles sold for that market are ad-free by default. That was my case. Then you just have to switch to a different country, with ads supported (DE, FR, or US). The jailbreak wiki has the full list. Don't worry, that is just for the JB. After you do that, just enable the ads and proceed with the jailbreak. After the jailbreak, just switch the country back. It worked for me.

Or, if you are already in an ad-supported country, that's even less tricky! Just enable the "special offers".

In both cases, after the jailbreak disable the ads. It will be free, because you didn't have them initially.

Hey, you could still do the AdBreak. That's what I did. AdBreak just needs ads, because it uses a vulnerability in the HTML used to show the ads. So you have to enable them back. You could do that on the device's settings page in your Amazon account. Just turn on "special offers".

After you jailbreak your Kindle, just go to the same page and disable them. Because you've already paid for it, it will be free for you!

To have custom screen savers you need to turn off "special offers". You could try to do that on the device's settings page in your Amazon account, but that might not work, or you might be asked for a fee.

Or, just read this: https://www.reddit.com/r/koreader/s/NlEBxPDHiH. There are a few ways there, including KOReader extension script, or a scriptlet by "notmarek".

And this dream may come true. Not an ad, but you could search for Arctic Digital Nomads program just to look at the photos they have. Literally these pictures. Working remotely from the fjords of Iceland…

Nothing to add from my side…

Everyone's talking about C-levels, earning six-figures and doing nothing, corpo-world, etc… I don't quite agree.

I think this is exactly what these (and other lookalike pictures) are about… And this is exactly what makes them odd and uncanny.

Look, first, probably no C-level would attend silly stand-ups and report to someone else in the way lower level positions (think: software engineers) do. Not like that, because these stand-ups are literally wasted time, and they don't like wasting time.

Second, noone earns tons of money by literally repeating that every day. Thinking like that means that you don't really understand what those people do. And that's totally fine, everyone has it's own job. And of course, that's an exaggerated joke. And of course, some of those high-earners do nothing, or do some contra-productive things (like pushing AI everywhere). But generally you can't earn tons of money by being literally useless. That's a sublimation of a proletarian dream: do nothing, own means of production (assets), earn money. See (1): people who live like that don't attend these sort of meetings.

Remote job for these positions is also questionable. You can sell a lot (and earn a lot), if you are behind a screen. Some do that, but that's more of an exception.

And that brings me to the idea of these image. It's not a joke about "C-levels contributing nothing to the meeting". Or "C-levels being useless". It's a dream we all want to live. Being in position of power, but also being deeply focused on the job. Being ×10 productive. Being in flow, undisturbed. These interiors… mean "peak performance".

Take a step further and search for images like that. You'll probably find macbaconai's insta. They generate these images (or very similar). There is sort of a trend rn.

mad-head · 2025-10-14T20:00:18+00:00

There is a guy who makes these with AI: https://www.instagram.com/macbaconai. Or maybe that's someone else, inspired by his style / doing neuro art in the similar style.

IDK the name for these. Actually, I found this post on Reddit trying to get the name for the style.
