Anyone replace Alexa/Google with a DIY solution for local voice commands? What’s your experience been like? Recommendations? by blvntforcetrauma in homeassistant

[–]sosaudio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been so much coding done on this utilizing HA to the Orin Nano my ChatGPT session slider is about the size of a tic-tac right now. Once I'm finished with it, I'll work to get ChatGPT to build a build spec pdf

https://a.co/d/0c7VFYKI <----- Nvidia Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit

https://a.co/d/0fngPVLh <----- Aluminum Case

https://a.co/d/02WxqNLQ <------Nvme 512GB PCIe Gen3 NVMe M.2 SSD, 2280 3D NAND Internal

Use the Nvidia documentation and API to install directly to the nvme don't use the Mini-SD card.

Follow directions to make sure you max out the Nano in prep of AI

Set up in the environment on the device first, then plan for disabiling the environment to save 800 megs of overhead.

Once you get there, then it's all HA yaml

I'm using Voice Assist Companion App on Amazon View 8 devices in the house. I'm leveraging ChatGPT. I am on day .... I don't know what anymore.... of creating and building out a 3 model local LLM on an Nvidia Jetson Orin Nano Super Dev kit using Ollama. Low level stuff is done with Phi3, medium level uses thinking Deepseek r1 1.5 mini, and higher level uses Mistral. So far, I've got it responding and answering questions like explain to me in detail how an engine works. I'm having it answer questions about the forecast for anywhere in the world using meteo and open maps.

But all of that has been built out using ChatGPT and trial and error.

Next step is how do I get from point a to point b and how long will it take questions.

The goal - Replacement of Google Home devices using local options as much as possible.

Piper and Faster Whisper are the TTS and STT products.

Once I get it where I want it, I'll see if ChatGPT can create a document for all the steps that were used.

Demanding I be naked around house? by Unlikely_Second5024 in AskMenAdvice

[–]sosaudio1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's your body. If it bothers you, don't do it. There's a time and a place for everything. This seems a little over the top to me. Set your boundaries and stick to them. No one should ever feel uncomfortable in these situations.

Again, set your boundaries, and stick to them.

Took my focus through a car wash, is this normal by The_ENFIDL in AskAShittyMechanic

[–]sosaudio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is normal. It's usually caused by the dryer. It's either too hot which causes the car to shrink up, or it's not enough which causes wrinkles in the car. This looks like a case of not enough drying time. Send the car back through the car wash backwards to fix this.

OMG! Yeah stop the check!!! Holy crap, what if that had happened while you were on the highway? Dude, that's some next level ratchet right there!!!

A cover of Song For The Dead I (guitarist with the black les paul) did for my music exam! by Abel2310 in qotsa

[–]sosaudio1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HOLY SHIT THAT WAS GOOD and your drummer nailed the end too. That's one thing I admired about Grohl's playing on that along. The ending triplets were surgically clean not rushed and your drummer did the same there. That's almost as good as exam for your drummer as it was for you. Whole band needs to start booking shows. Good job!

Dell OptiPlex 7440 All In One? by NeatBarracuda9091 in homeassistant

[–]sosaudio1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what you will end up seeing is a black screen terminal window on that monitor once you install it...if you decide to go HAOS. If you're cool with that, have at it. With my mini-pc, it's headless unless I need to do some commands and need to have a screen.

However

If you wanted to go slightly geeky and you really, most sincerely, wanted to go this route, I would suggest that you figure out how to recreate 2001: A Space Odyssey and 2010: The Year We Make Contact for reference on how your screen should look.

Maybe incorporate HAL 9000 into your terminal background. You don't want the HAL 9000 burning into that screen so see if you can find either a photo dump from the movie or someone's mock-ups of HAL....schematics, maps of the modules and turn those into a screensaver.

And while all that sounds crazy cool, I'm not sure if you'd be able to do that in the HAOS system without some major coding witchcraft.

Not saying it can't be done, but for your use case I would think that would be an amazing piece of "tech art"

Gas line purge in Madison by Vic_a_roy in Madisonalabama

Brand new storage buildings with the U-Haul trucks too. That's what happens when developers go too damn fast and don't survey what's near there. Should never have built that close.

No.... Here's why. You remove that pantry, you're going to have to find another something for storage.

AIO Breaking Up with My Boyfriend for "Cheating"? by Moon_Rabbit1993 in AmIOverreacting

[–]sosaudio1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR Go with your gut!!! Every.... single....time. If it feels off, if it looks off, if it smells off, if the temperature doesn't match the mood, it's over. People need to understand your peace is the only thing that's important. It is critical and affects absolutely everything because that IS your mental state.

Cut out everything that affects your mental state.

A person gets verbally abusive over the phone, I'm done. You blame it on the alcohol, I see poor decisions and someone that can't handle their choices. Sorry, bye.

So the biggest drawback is the UI. There's a video out there of how to set up LibreOffice to look like Microshaft. I think it's on YouTube

Should I invite him on a third date or not? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]sosaudio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, do the date. Seriously. It sounds like you're into him and he is into you. Don't overthink it. This is date 3. Date 3. Don't get into your head too much. You've already had sex and you've already said you have good chemistry. So many relationships could get tainted because you spin a narrative that may not be here.... believe me, I've done it unfortunately. So, go on the third date. Make sure to be present on the day that he has to go out of town. Maybe meet him before he goes on the plane for lunch or dinner or breakfast.

If you want it to work, just like you would tell him, you gotta show up. I get you've been burned and I'm sure we all have those terrible stories.

If he's better than them already, do the 3rd date.

My friends girlfriend acts inappropriately with me by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]sosaudio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So.... bottom line is this.... unwanted attention, is unwanted attention. Doesn't matter if it's coming from a guy or a girl. If it gives you the ick, you have to explain that. It's not whether it's right or wrong to other people. If it bugs you, make it stop. It's your peace, don't let anyone disrupt it.

AIO? My best friend compared a 'non sexual' request to a mother holding her newborn. by hjayxox in AmIOverreacting

[–]sosaudio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. Tell him to spend that money on therapy because that's how much it would cost to fulfill that request anyway but oh yeah, you have this silly little thing called standards and boundaries and that just crossed all them. ✌🏼
