Understandable. I have to agree (though I have no experience to back it up)

I looked it up but it doesn't seem to have support for many messengers.

Nuh uh, they are basically the same game.

Nun uh. They are.

Theoretically, yes. Handling of images programmatically could allow for some simple lossy compression which would help.

Its underdeveloped because it isn't flashy, though quite necessary. Accessibility is one thing that often is neglected (from large support) in general, OSS or otherwise.

Piper tts has quality models. Here are 2 references using it with speech-dispatcher:

Hacked together: https://github.com/rhasspy/piper/discussions/328

Ready-made: https://github.com/Elleo/pied

Not a great solution unless you think you can trust OpenAI and their security implementation (which you shouldn't). We have seen simple PHP scripted prompts in the past have the AI recount an entire conversation from another user. Not safe at all.

Does this force dark mode on pages or just what. I couldn't get it to work anywhere close to chomiums force dark mode.

Pymupdf has options to handle images. Good package.

Back to jail. No more sunlight for you.

Its very light to run even on just CPU (faster than realtime) and has decent quality. Good enough I made a personal project to turn books into audio books. But quality isn't its main selling point. I think its better than googles tts but that isn't saying much.

Just not the ones we use for lawns in the USA.

Frfr. Pain.

rhasspy's Piper tts is a good engine and has some good models for English and Spanish. Integrated into some apps but isn't difficult to code into an app.

Follow the way of the grassy planes indigenous americans and torch that ground. Smoke a whole field.

Wrong. Grass is bad. Native ground cover is better. Less water and trimming,

load average 😳

Linux is more like a family of operating systems. Each can be different but the share many commonalities. The only time i spend searching up fixes on Linux is for my coding projects where I intentionally am looking for something to fuck around with. Anyone can choose whatever OS they like, I am just quite unhappy with the state of Windows with all its issues. Forcing Cortana to listen and fingerprint using microphone and browser history, forcing upgrades to windows 11 (which is slow AF), it breaks Windows to uninstall edge browser, few customization options and no custom theming with built-in tools, the search bar never giving the correct results and redirecting to bing, etc. Its so limited and the only thing it has going for it is that developers make software for it. I have spent so much time on windows fixing driver issues, internet buggyness, apps behaving erradically, etc. So Linux is an option but of course learning a new system takes time and research: we all had to learn how to use windows at some point.

Linux Mint is good for beginners. If Windows is a necessity, use the Chris Titus WinUtil script to configure and remove bloat.

Ungoogled chromium need to be hardened since its goal is to be a drop-in replacement of chromium without google.
