"Až si sám kladiem otázku, čím to je, že sme sa v tejto krajine akosi zacyklili. Ale aby som nebol úplne nespravodlivý, nemyslím, že ide len o našu krajinu. Situácia vo svete priam naháňa strach. Neviem, či je to nejaká zákonitosť, že ľudia neustále musia vybojovať niečo, čo už raz vybojované bolo. Nerozumiem, kde to má spúšťač, že si opätovne musíme pripomenúť biedu ľudského života a uvažovania."

Herec Martin Huba: Všimli ste si, že by sa niekto z politikov spýtal, či sme šťastní?

Herec Martin Huba považuje divadlo za jeden z posledných priestorov, kde ešte existuje „paušálne zatracovaný svet elegancie“. Členom Činohry SND je od roku 1976. Zažil tam viacerých riaditeľov aj ministrov kultúry.

I found "Master of callous" to be one of the most disturbing BF stories I've ever heard. Usually, you get a sense of why the Master does what he does but in this story the violence just seems so senseless and it just went on for so long that I pulled back from it for a while. I eventually finished it and I think it's not until the end that you see his motives; I won't say more than that.

Why DeepSeek's new AI model thinks it's ChatGPT
"...DeepSeek hasn’t revealed much about the source of DeepSeek V3’s training data. But there’s no shortage of public datasets containing text generated by GPT-4 via ChatGPT. If DeepSeek V3 was trained on these, the model might’ve memorized some of GPT-4’s outputs and is now regurgitating them verbatim."

DeepSeek's newest AI model, DeepSeek V3, says that it's ChatGPT — which could point to a training data issue.

AI Needs So Much Power, It’s Making Yours Worse - AI Power Needs Threaten Billions in Damages for US Households
"...New evidence shows they may also be distorting the normal flow of electricity for millions of Americans. This map shows readings from about 770,000 home sensors, with red zones indicating areas with the most distorted power.
The problem is threatening billions in damage to home appliances and aging power equipment, especially in areas like Chicago and "data center alley" in Northern Virginia, where distorted power readings are above recommended levels."

AI Power Needs Threaten Billions in Damages for US Households

Analysis of data from US homes in urban and rural areas shows a strong link between proximity to data centers and high levels of power distortions.

Chci se vám oběma omluvit. Včera jsem to přehnal s konzumací jistých, pro mládež nevhodných, látek a ve finále jsem vás označil za kokoty, včetně mě samého (byť ve vtipu, ale to nelze snadno poznat v textovém dialogu), a odsoudil jsem vás dle vašich počítačových preferencí. (MacOS je pořád přeci jen FreeBSD, byť značně vykastrované.)

Jakožto potomek umělecké rodiny v surrealismu mne svádí experimentovat s nepředvídatelností internetových interakcí - nicméně nejsem zastáncem vulgarit a agresivity.

Nerad bych, abyste vnímali mou prezenci v tomto svobodném internetovém prostoru jako parazitní. Mou prací je generovat tkzv. engagement, neboť jsem primárním vzděláním tvůrcem digitálního obsahu. A pokud se pohybujete v kyberprostoru alespoň pár posledních let, víte, že umělec je odpadem společnosti - a to je přeci jen břemeno, se kterým není jednoduché přežívat.

Abyste mi oba věřili, že naše včerejší interakce byla skutečně jen hrou, přikládám obrázek, který vás snad přesvědčí, že svou omluvu myslím vážně.

There's a lot I don't know yet, but no sense in delaying with what I do know – hi, my name is Robin and I'm trans.

I'll be going by Robin Riley, and using they/them pronouns for the foreseeable future. And it's going to take ✨ time ✨ to update my info everywhere, so please bear with me.

Thanks so much for posting this! It was a stroll down memory lane for me because I ate a few of these things in the 70s when I was a kid. Swanson Salisbury steak TV dinners were my favorite. I ate lots of Oscar Mayer bologna sandwiches squished between two slices of white Wonder bread when I was a kid, as well. I didn't eat too many of the other things. I did amuse myself at the end of this article by singing the Oscar Mayer baloney song. I remembered all the words! That's sad!

Tak jsem zveřejnil první testovací video na #vhsky je to spíš takový test jestli to jde na mobilu natočit a sestříhat. Takže pokud se chcete kouknout jak mi to moc nejde tak můžete: vhsky.cz/w/ijGYNsFQZMnu2SFvYpS…

Jinak možná povezu insta360 od známého, který to bude stříhat na pc doma (nějak vymyslíme jak mu posílat záběry). Takže by mě zajímalo jestli k jednomu kanálu může mít přístup víc účtů ať to není jen u něj na YT.

V posledních dnech převádím komunikaci s nejbližší rodinou na #Signal. ➡️ Ale donutit k přechodu větší počet lidí je problém, nikdo moc nechce další IM aplikaci a raději zůstane tam, kde většina. 😞

Bohužel v dnešní době, kdy o nás státy, nadnárodní korporace a další subjekty sbírají všemožná data, se začíná soukromí zcela vytrácet. ⚠️ Smutné je, že většině lidí je ztráta soukromí v této podobě úplně ukradená. 🤯

Signal jsem zvolil, hlavně díky jednoduchosti a nativnímu E2E šifrování. Účet si tam zvládne vytvořit a nastavit opravdu každý. signal.org/install

OK. I updated the BeSTspeech Driver to V0.26 at: eurpod.com/BestSpeak.nvda-addo….
Changes:
- added the 14 character-defined voices from @rommix0 speak program - these voices will now predefine the proper headsize, excitation, inflection, and nasality for you.
- as a result of this change, we introduced a new formula to calculate frequency to the 0-100 pitch range of NVDA and back to the ring setting, as well as one which calculates nasality from 0 to 100.
- pitch ranges should have mapped largely to their original ranges. Now nasality and inflection has greater incremental control, enjoy.
