Crossover, but it isn’t needed anymore since most modern devices can detect what they are connected to and adjust.

That was freaking me out as well😅

Closest answer from the article but still doesn’t really explain.

“Vehicle theft is so lucrative for criminals because property theft is not as penalized like other crimes, say trafficking drugs,” Mr. Bonsaint said. “It’s a low-risk, high-reward crime.”

I was responding to his TV mention.

Yep, mine has never reached the internet, it is connected but is blocked at the firewall so I can still hook home assistant up to it.

This here. Another thing to do is if you are taking video of family moments, narrate in the background what’s been going on for the past few days or a week. It adds additional context that is invaluable and would most likely be lost to even the person filming.

I love that they schedule all the games based on cartoons on Saturday morning. DIG A HOLE!

Same make and model is fine, but you do want to make sure they are from different batches if you can. Reduces the chances of multiple drive failure occurring at the same time.

At first I thought she had two and half legs on the second panel 😂 the lighting made me think she had a stump.

Yeah, this is a nothing article.

The fine is not the largest ever imposed on Google, however.

In October 2024 a charge was brought against the firm by a Russian court for restricting Russian state media channels on YouTube.

The fine was for two undecillion roubles - more than the world’s total GDP.

It’s interesting that the fourth panel is not just a copy/paste paste of the third with adjustments. They drew it. Neat

Thanks for the post, was an interesting read

Don’t misunderstand. Openwakeword works great. I just think it’s awesome that the hotword detection can run so well directly on low powered devices now.

About STT I’ll agree that they can run well, I just found the experience a lot better on a heavier model running on a beefier machine. They do well in a silent space but struggle when you add background noise.

Im sure this works but from my recent experience you need your STT on a machine more powerful than a PI atm. Tiny models are just not accurate enough and the bigger ones need more than the PI has to give any sort of decent response time. Compared to where this was two years ago I look forward to where it is in two more.

One of the largest improvements imo has been microwakeword and the ability to run the hotword detection “on device” but I believe it only runs on ESP32 devices so not an option if want everything on a pi.

I spent a little bit of time getting a fully local voice pipeline setup in home assistant last month and I’d say it is near perfect(after adding a few additional community integrations) with the exception of the microphones on current hardware. I look forward to the next HA voice device from Nabu Casa.

What a mouthful of a name.

France’s equivalent of the Federal Trade Commission, Direction Générale de la Concurrence, de la Consommation et de la Répression des Fraudes

I’m so startled looking at this.
