  • The only text-to-audio model I can think of at the moment is Stable Audio Open, which AFAIK is rather underwhelming for your use-case, if it can even handle stuff more complex than basic sounds - and no lyrics.
    It is even under the "new" membership licensing of SAI.

    I remember reading about a more recent one, but I currently can't find it, and I don't think that that one too could handle lyrics.

    I suppose the Music industry is a lot harder to fight, so not a lot of people want to entangle themself with it.

  • The more images I see and the more impressive Flux seems.

    People could already make it run on 16GB cards, let's hope it can get squeezed down even more.

  • The (IMHO) important bits:

    TLDR:

    Our continuous internal reviews and beta test groups have highlighted areas that we need to focus on more, mainly performance and content

    From the FAQ:

    Is the game canceled?
    No, the game is not canceled.

    What happens to pre-orders?
    All pre-orders will be refunded in the upcoming weeks. The option to pre-order the game will be removed and the bonus will instead be added to the base game for all

    Is there going to be Early Access or Beta Access to the game?
    There will not be an early access or extra beta access right now

    In the blog there are the steps to how to get the refunds, I'm not copying them in case they change.

    As they say, A Delayed Game Is Eventually Good, But a Bad Game Is Bad Forever /s?

  • No way. That's illegal!

  • Silverbullet is like that. It is not an electron or native app, you have to run a server and then get to it from the browser.

    TLDR it is best run with docker or podman, but IMHO it is pretty good.

  • It says it can lead to health issues... Not that it will... soooo.....

  • I wish they used them all, especially XDG_CACHE_HOME which can become pretty big pretty fast.

  • disable this system security feature temporarily,

    This should be - if I'm not mistaken - possible using the pip env var I posted about earlier, like this:

    PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES=1 sudo apt install howdy

    Or exporting it for the current shell, before running the installation

    export PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES=1

    But I personally highly discourage it, because - AFAIK - if it even works it will mess up the deps in your system.

  • I'm no python expert but reading around it seems your only real solution is using a virtual environment, through pipx or venv as you already had found out, or using the

     `
        
    --break-system-packages
    
    * Allow pip to modify an EXTERNALLY-MANAGED Python installation
    
      (environment variable: `PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES`)
    `
      

    pip flag which, as the name suggest, should be avoided.

    EDIT: After rereading I got your problem better and I was trying to read the source for Howdy to see how to do it, so far no luck.

  • There are multiple incidents that kind of fit, but I think you are talking about this one: Wiki article

    Information declassified since 2013 has shown that one of the bombs was judged by nuclear weapons engineers at the time to have been only one safety switch away from detonation, and that it was "credible" to imagine conditions under which it could have detonated.

  • Russia is actively in Syria from the end of 2015 as an official belligerent, it's not something new for Russia to fight directly while others use only proxies.

    But I can see your point; still - officially - this is only a three days military operation. When that stance will finally change in the official channels, it will mean they can't hold the mask anymore.

  • Just out of curiosity, is the mouse bluetooth?

    I heard there are some intermittent problems with them on linux because of proprietary blobs and similar driver issues, but I've never had one, so I've no direct experience.

  • I find it funny that this is the first video where I'm consistently getting the "This helps us protect our community" and "Log in to confirm that you are not a bot" errors while using an alternative Frontend.

    I'm sure it's just a random coincidence, but it is still funny to me.

  • This was an interesting question, so I took a quick dive in the docs, it seems it has an S3 integration to help with it, and some comments on the various supported services

    More info here: https://owncast.online/docs/storage/

    Still, depending on the chosen provider and the amount of viewers, it could be quite costly

  • It's an error with a dependency written in Rust, the workaround is to use an older toolchain (1.72), it is fixed in the newer code of tokenizers, but probably it is not updated in AUTOMATIC1111 yet: you should check their bug tracker

    To have more info you can read this issue: Link

  • Considering you are not using the Flatpak anymore it is, indeed, strange. The only reasons I can think of are: your network manager is using the wrong network interface to route your traffic ( if you go on an ip checking site like for example ipinfo do you see yours or the VPN's IP?) or that you have WebRTC enabled and the broadcaster is getting your real ip through that.

    For the first case it can get pretty complicated, but it is probably an error during the installation of the VPN app or you set up multiple network managers and it gets confused on which one to configure. You should also enable the Advanced Kill Switch in the configuration.

    For the second case you could try adding something like the Disable WebRTC add-on for firefox and check if it works. Remember to enable it for Private Windows too.

    The last thing I can think of is that you allowed the broadcaster to get your real geolocation (in firefox it should be a small icon on the left of the address bar), or you are leaking some kind of information somewhere: there are a bunch of site that check for ip leak, but I don't know if that goes too deep for you.
    If you want to check anyway the first two results from DDG are browserleaks and ipleak. Mullvad offered one too but it is currently down.

    EDIT: If you enable the Advanced Kill Switch, and the app is working correctly, internet will not work while you are not connected to a VPN server or until you disable the switch again, so pay attention to that.

  • Probably when you installed the second linux you overwrote the boot loader instead of adding a new UEFI entry point.

    But I've never had a Mac, so take this with a pinch of salt, and honestly considering things can change based on what, in which order, and how you installed things.. it could be something else.

  • Unfortunately, in general, people tend to just read, vote, and then forget about it without checking back: that's why I always try to add some source or ways to verify what I post.

    And - in this specific case - probably some people just like LTT, I assume.

  • On the contrary, in my opinion if they are clearly labelled as a joke, they are a great way for people who don't understand them to ask why and, in the process, being a little more informed on what not to do and what it's dangerous.

    Especially because there's really no risk of emulation in this case.
