a la comida invitó el jefe de servicio, pero al desayuno y a la fiesta esperan que lleves tu propia comida, lo digo para que te vayas preparando por si lo hacen ahí también, ahora la modernidad es eso. Y hombre, estuvo curiosa la experiencia de que cada uno llevase lo que le gustase, pero queda un poco bastante rácano. Pero bueno, como siempre, para lo importante no hay presupuesto, y luego se gasta una pasta en gilipolleces.

So, Takealot remains significantly better than Amazon South Africa, but it has still gotten consistently worse in one specific area:

Delivery times are becoming more and more meaningless.

Order something as a Christmas gift. For reasons of being an actual human being with a budget and having to wait till salaries arrive before ordering, we ordered the same month we expected it.

We paid extra for next-day delivery.

Three days later, "Your order has not been processed yet, we'll message you when it gets put in a box"

Krásné dobré ráno mastodonští! 🙋‍♀️🐶🐈
Už téměř měsíc se potýkám s bolestmi zad. Někde se mi uskřípl safraportský nervík a nejde to uvolnit. Cvičením, protahováním, léky. Šéfová to dobře ví. A hádejte co. Včera mě poslala za holkama na výrobnu, kde se netopí. Dělat vánoční svícny na hroby. 😂 Asi abych to rozehnala mrazem. No, obávám se, že dneska tam budu znovu. Teplé vybavení mám. Ale po sedmi hodinách už vám mrzne úplně všechno. Aspoň že je tam s holkama sranda. Jen se obávám, že v pondělí oznámím, že si vybírám dovolenou do konce roku. 😂😂😂
A vy si pamatujte, ne nutně všechno, co se zdá být špatné, je pro vás skutečně špatné. 😇

@archos Volno je za rohem! 😊 A já jsem nabalená jako tučňák a mířím za rozesmátýma holkama, co mají pořád dobrou náladu. Lepší být v zimě s nimi, než v teple s (v poslední době stále) nenaladěnou šéfovou. Jenom se holt budu pohybovat jako osmdesátník s artrózou. 😁
(Tučňák s artritidou.... 🤣🤣🤣)
Užívej volna a krásný den Archosi! 😊👋

Když nejede displej a data, tak na 6a dva dny dám. Data mi přijdou jako největší žrout, subjektivně víc než to bylo na CalyxOS s MicroG. U tebe zda se, to jsou taky data.
Když nad tím přemýšlím, mohlo by to souviset - bez Google Play fungují notifikace u některých aplikací jinak, u tebe to bude třeba Signal, tedy pokud nepoužíváš Unified Push. FairEmail bude záviset na mailserveru a podpoře push notifikací, tam to systém myslím neovlivní.

@archos na vlastníkovi žádné Google aplikace nemám (zatím tedy ani Google play). Kalendář, kontakty (synchronizace přes DAVx5), e-maily (Gmail přijímaný přes FairMail) atd. používám buď ty předinstalované, nebo fossify.
Asi si nezvyknu na to přepínání profilů, tak přemýšlím, že nechám jen 2 (vlastník a banky) a smířím se s tím sandboxovým Googlem.
Musím udělat inventuru toho, co mi chodí na Gmail, nechat ho jako zombie a začít využívat jako hlavní můj protonmail..nebo vymyslet něco jiného.

Já s profily taky bojuju, vždy to vyzkouším a pak je vymažu. Prostě to není komfort. Já vydržím tři týdny a pak si řeknu, že to sraní mi za to nestojí 😀😀
Hlavně Google play je v Sandboxu, to ze Google ví co mám za aplikace je myslím úplně jedno.
Jinak s tím gmail atd chapu, jasný chce to všechno postupně 👍👍
Proton je super, mně teda vadí jak je to přeplácaný a cena, ale jinak super

A while ago, I made a deal with myself. If my music streaming service found me a song I really enjoyed--I played it a lot, felt happy when it came on--I'd buy the song. If the album were cheap enough and I like two or three songs on it, I'd buy the whole album. In the last couple days, I've spent around $35 on music from two artists I only just discovered, and I don't regret it at all. The artists got a little bit of actual money, and I own the music as unencrypted files not tied to streaming.

A quick reminder of a few things Mozilla/Firefox have done in the last *checks notes* ~year that I hope highlights that this is not a case of bad messaging but a consistent pattern of hostility:

- "Mozilla is going to be more active in digital advertising."

- "privacy preserving" Advertising telemetry enabled by default

- New T&C demanding a worldwide license (rolled back) & weakened privacy policy to support the above expansion (active)

- ""[Firefox] will evolve into a modern AI browser"

Opt-in means that the person needs to perform an explicit action in order to do something. Ideally it means that they do that action of their own accord, without being harassed. They do that because the software/features/whatever is exciting and/or solves a real problem they have.

Something so good you don't have to trick them into turning it on.

You know, like that time 20+ years ago when people actively sought out and downloaded Firefox because it was simply the better option.

To spell this out clearly, the reason RAM has quadrupled in price is that a huge quantity of RAM that hasn't been produced yet has been bought with money that doesn't exist to populate GPUs that also haven't been produced to go in datacenters that haven't been built powered by infrastructure that may never exist to meet a demand that doesn't exist at all to make profit margins that mathematically can't exist while economists talk about this thing they call the "rational markets hypothesis".

Found what looks like an #NVDA bug, or possibly #notepad++ bug. An & followed by a space will read a fake command key suggestion when changing focus to the notepad++ window.

NVDA: 2025.3.2.
Notepad++: 8.8.8.

Minimum reproduction:

Open notepad++, if a file is open use ctrl-n for new.
Type the following string in the file: "& ".
Alt-tab in and out. On the focus, NVDA will announce "alt+space".

I just wanted to read before bed.

Wow, Chatterbox-Turbo is pretty good! As a quick test, I let two local LLMs ramble about random topics of their choice and generated audio using zero-shot voice cloning with Chatterbox-Turbo.

@vick21 haha The text is from Gemini-3-27b. Yes, Chatterbox is open weight. It does not work on Mac out of the box, but I asked Gemini3 to modify it to use MPS and it worked. lol In the past, LLMs would not have been able to handle this kind of task, but they now seem to have enough knowledge of ML libraries. So far, I have also managed to get a few other CUDA-only models running on MPS with just vibe coding.

@vick21 In deed! I had a another TTS model which was not only developed for Cuda, but also used a dependency for speech codec that only worked for Cuda. Gemini cli not only modified the inference code for the model itself but also looked up the dependency library inside virtual environment and provided monkey patch so it can work with MPS. These frontier models are truely getting better! :)

@vick21 Lol yeah I'm not sure if we have access to Claude code, I'll have to check. I can get Gemini CLI though, I'll take a look at that this weekend. Would be amazing if it could be used to just setup all these models without me having to jump through tons of hoops to make them work properly. Right now I'm scared to install anything so I just play with most of these through the hugging face demos lol.

@vick21 Zach, do you know any newer better singing voice models? It seems like the latest commit for RVC is from last November, and the v2 model is still the latest. Their main readme is in Chinese, but here's Readme in English. github.com/RVC-Project/Retriev…

Blind Mac users, I need your opinion. Is it worth getting a MacBook Air as primary laptop in addition to a Windows desktop, for consuming media, music production and, well, general laptop? I'm kind of fed up with Windows laptops to be honest, the Mac seems awesome regarding quality, but I'm completely lost when it comes to VoiceOver, and I hear very, very different opinions on Mac accessibility these days. I'd kind of love to try it, the other hand, the price speaks for itself, and I'm not an Apple fanboy anymore, nor locked in the ecosystem, and would sort of like to keep beeing flexible.
Another point of interest would be, how is Windows emulation these days, do VMs work reliably and lag-free? Thanks so much for any information or opinions you can give, boosts are really appreciated.

Well, i have an m2 Macbook pro, and if your using the mac for browsing the web and the like, I'd say its perfect for that for sure. I've personally haven't seen much in the way of issues with VO and have found the Mac experience to be pretty great actually for that sort of thing, is it different than windows? Yes, its definitely different, but different isn't bad though. As for Windows emulation, I'm not exactly sure on that front.
