It rained and snowed all day today but I still went for a short walk - and found a lifer liverwort, Apopellia endiviifolia. Something that looks like a cross of moss and lichen but is neither. It also had very strange looking long stalks with little green and brown balls on top, the only reason I even noticed it 😆

You will notice that in my app listing for Xposed Framework Resources (android.izzysoft.de/applists/c…) most modules were just marked unavailable. Now that xposed.info is unreachable for at least 9 months and there are no hints it might come back, I gave up waiting on it. Instead, Xposed modules are now checked against the LSposed repo. Most of the goners have seen no updates for at least 3, some for about 10 years anyway, so hopefully there are no great losses…

I see people starting to use this AI in videos and podcasts and I can't say I like it very much. It does... something to the voice that makes it sound unsettling and not natural, especially if the mic isn't really bad to begin with. Which is strange because I can listen to AI TTS just fine, and I also don't have a problem with most AI noise reduction for the most part. But this? I can't really explain it, but it's very noticeable to me, and I just can't keep watching a video that uses it. It's weird. I know. But there you go.

I don't think this is an unfixable problem either. I'm sure it could be improved to be indistinguishable at some point. But the way it is now it's just... I don't even know how to explain it. But my mind kinda squirms everytime I hear it. It's so strange. There's like... very strange warbles, it messes with the actual voice in subtle but weird ways like fundamentals and just texture in general, and of course the s' and other sharper sounds... Gah. It's impressive at what it does but...

KCRW: "KCRW will no longer share content from our institutional account on Twitter.

Twitter has falsely labeled NPR as “state-affiliated media.” It’s a term the platform applies to propaganda outlets in countries without a free press, a guaranteed right in the United States.

This is an attack on independent journalism, the very principle that defines public media. Twitter has since doubled down on the label, which is outrageous and further undermines the credibility of the platform."

I have a thing where basically I try to raise sims so that they get incredible skill gains. There are many bonus traits and buffs you can get through normal gameplay that increase the rate at which your sims gain skills. I think I've reached the pinnacle with my latest sim.

With her mom, who is OP in her own right, teaching her she goes from 0 to max level programming skill in under 30 seconds (real-time).

Substack tells writers Twitter "unexpectedly restricted access to embedding tweets"; Twitter seems to have disabled likes and RTs for tweets with Substack links (Mitchell Clark/The Verge)

Twitter cuts off Substack embeds and starts suspending bots

Substack users are currently unable to embed tweets into their stories. That’s just the tip of the iceberg for the problems being caused by Twitter’s API changes.
