Kitty terminal has a lot of configurations for fonts. I beleive you can get down to adjustments for specific charecters. Idk if it uses the specific technology you are suggesting. But it is explained in the kitty.conf docs.
Actually you have to stay in more to get into this sort of thing.
Oh man fonts for coding are such a huge thing. There are people making their own forks of so they have certain glyphs, or a line through the zero (or vice versa) or little changes to other specific chars.
I think it is true because if they get the tech right the market could be saturated and voice actors will be in lower demand.
And the situation is already terrible for these workers. >90% of people buy and consume books via Audible which is owned by Amazon. As I’m sure you can guess there is lots of shady stuff going on. Such as (but not limited to) the “Audiblegate” campaign where workers discovered Amazon was engaging massive systemic wagetheft. As situation which is still ongoing to the best of my knowledge.
Some further context about Audible:
Back in the 19th century when unions were powerful and innovative, a lot of people had jobs where they had to sit and do repetitive tasks in a room all day. A lot of it was handwork that didn’t have big loud machines.
So one of the demands made by workers in such situations was that the employer would pay someone to come in and provide entertainment such as reading a book or giving talks on subjects of interest. The book or lecturer of course being selected by the workers via the democratic process of the union. And then of course the workers became way more educated because they suddenly had 8-12 hours daily to read books together. Since knowledge is power, the workers became stronger and more decisive in their collective actions.
When you are listening to audiobook at work you can know you are in a long tradition of workers exercising power over their job conditions. Although now it is individualized in the implementation. The desire to have your mind even though the job has your body and some concentration is universal.
Totally true about the librivox readers. They are doing their best. :) There are some total gems in there. But I have definitely given up on a few of them. OTOH I have given up on professionally read audiobooks too for all sorts of reasons.
Well you can always pay someone to read it for you. Blind people do that.
Are any of these books public domain? If so the print version could be eligible for inclusion at Project Guttenberg. PG has very specific docs about eligibility for this. You could probably get a scan from archive.org if you don’t have one. You would have to clean up the OCR by hand.
Then it would eligible to be requested from the volunteer (human) readers who have been pumping out Libra audio books for years at LibriVox.
Recently I saw Gutenberg has a collab. They are producing and distributing Libre guidebooks generated by AI. I believe I read on one of the pages they have 4000 done. I haven’t tried it out but I guess I should.
Project Gutenberg, Microsoft, and MIT have worked together to create thousands of free and open audiobooks using new neural text-to-speech technology and Project Gutenberg’s large open-access collection of e-books. This project aims to make literature more accessible to (audio)book-lovers everywhere and democratize access to high quality audiobooks. Whether you are learning to read, looking for inclusive reading technology, or about to head out on a long drive, we hope you enjoy this audiobook collection.
I assume this is also a great benefit as fertilizer down at the old AI content farm which is otherwise totally run over with reddit shitposts.
If anyone tries it let me know how it goes.
And it tells others so much valauable information about you
the admins should put a link at the top to a search or version of the feed or something that filters out all posts with “reddit” in the title or body or linked article to show what the site is like when it isn’t consumed with gossip and drama.
looking at the instructions, I am not sure it is something a casual user can implement. I think you’d have to have admin access to the server to implement this.
perhaps the lemmy project could design an interface allowing users to import subreddits in this way on instances which allow it. the cost and risk associated with this could be non trivial.
Good to know there are already some archives. Do you think they are the correct format?
Even in the best case scenario I probably don’t have the breadth to write something PR-ready but an issue with notes would probably be doable. (Unless the existing docs are already docs are already perfect, which they could be.)
I mean if we want people to migrate to lemmy, the thing to do would be to just start cloning all the subreddits… “Hey everyone you can pick up where you left off.”
hmmm all good thoughts. I would like to see about trying to do some stuff locally without discussion to see if it is viable for me at my level of skill and time availability. If I can get a dev environment running and figure out the basic tasks involved then I would probably start discussions about what I might do.
There doesn’t seem to be much prior issues, especially kbin, on this topic, unless it is in a separate repo that I am not seeing.
I am guessing that neither project anticipated it was about to get slammed and may not be ready to deal with that on the server admin side and also be managing bug requests and onboarding new devs with all kinds of ideas.
Thanks! Just to check is the correct docker instructions here?
I also found this page Theming Guide, so I guess the way to do it would be to copy an existing theme and work on that?
right but at least that way people wouldn’t show up to an empty room. the content would be familiar and set the vibe.
so a new community can hit the ground running with the thousands of posts of advice, problem solving, experiences, that made the old one valuable.
no need to apologize! I just want you to have a good chance to get your question answered. ;)
I am not sure how to clearly crosspost here…
Some of my kitchen stuff, hand tools and a few ornaments come from my grandparents place. Ive been handling/seeing them my whole life. Add x years to that before me.
