Honestly, nothing yet. I’ve only been playing with it for a few weeks. I just use the web interface on my phone to test the voice control. I’ve been looking at the esp32 devices that people have been building, but a lot of them admit that they can’t come anywhere close to the reliability of the microphone array used in the Alexa.
And this is exact the reason I’m building a Home Assistant instance with local voice processing. Right now it takes a few seconds to process a request and take action on my crappy 1.8ghz laptop with only 4gb of RAM, but it basically does everything I use Alexa for. This announcement is just encouraging me to build a better server with an esp32 satellite.
I bought during the height of the housing frenzy in Canada in 2021. Putting any condition on the sale meant that you wouldn’t get the house. I found a few issues but took the chance anyways. As soon as the sale went through, I got an inspector in to check out everything I found. I got lucky for the most part, but there were a few things that he found that I didn’t. It’s better to know these things and plan for them than to be oblivious.
Get the inspection. It’s not weird at all. They are all aware of the current situation.
Obligatory “Real users use Hannah Montana Linux” post.
And everyone will still call it Twitter.
Out of curiosity, what are dreams like for you? Is that also just a stream of sounds without images?
That’s exactly the kind of question this community was created for.
You mean that a game show where you have to guess the price of several brand name products, which gives away prizes provided by their sponsors that are featured prominently during the entire show is really just a big long commercial?
The same applies for ground beef as well. It’s the grinding up of the meat that creates a zone for bacteria to infect it. The reason they changed pork to 145 is because they created health regulations that eliminated the risk of parasites and allow them to only cook it to 145.
Yes, they are agreeing with me because health regulations are responsible for eliminating parasites, not because people overcook pork.
Seriously, take your own advice. Stop talking about food safety. You are not an authority, so stop acting like one.
I never said it was safe to eat raw pork. Stop creating strawmen that have nothing to do with this conversation…
Yes, I understand that. Cooking pork to an internal temperature of 165 Fahrenheit will kill parasites. But health regulations on farms have essentially eliminated the risk of parasites to begin with, specifically to mitigate the idiots. RFK admitted to eating in a foreign country that doesn’t have the same safety standards. That’s the reason he was infected with parasites.
To be fair, health regulations have largely eliminated the risk of parasites in pork. Though that doesn’t apply everywhere in the world.
I pointed out self-preservation to point out that vegans don’t go around attacking poor people and don’t expect people to keep their principles in those situations. I made a choice I don’t expect other people to make.
Then literally the very next sentence, you contradict yourself.
I point my criticisms at the people I know in real life who shop at the exact same stores I do and make similar amounts of money, but still use poor people as an excuse not to change their own behavior.
You claim to be poor, claim to not attack people who are poor, then chastise people who are poor for not making the same choices that you do. You are a hypocrite. Have a nice day.
You literally asked me the question and are now chastising me for my answer.
Yes, because you claim to be poor yet still call being vegan a lifestyle choice. And you chastise others in your position for not making that choice. Poor people don’t get to make those choices. Poor people do whatever it takes to survive. Poor people live on that desert island every single day and have to make difficult decisions. Poor take whatever they can get and are greatful for it. Poor people don’t have the privilege to turn down food.
Maybe begin to recognize your own privilege before telling other people what to do.
Wow…so you’ve been so poor that you can only afford rice and beans, and you’ve been offered free food that you turned down because it wasn’t vegan? Really? See, that’s the kind of smugness OP was talking about. You put your veganism above securing food, and you’re proud of it. You willingly sacrificed your self-preservation for your principles. And now you’re advertising it.
What if I can’t afford those things, still eat rice and beans, but I tell people I’m vegan to avoid awkward social interactions?
But would you? Would you really turn down free food simply because you’re vegan? Would you really tell people you’re vegan to avoid an “awkward social interaction” when offered free food? If so, that makes you privileged. Being able to pick and choose food makes you privileged, whether it’s vegan or not. That’s the difference.
Congratulations, you’re finally getting it. They are two different people. There are people that eat vegan because they have no choice. Those people are not privileged. There are people that call themselves vegan and make sure everyone knows they are vegan. Those are the vegans the original comment was talking about, which someone took offense to. That’s why I pointed out the difference.
It took a little effort, but at least you got there.
I didn’t say that. I said if you’re buying the vegan substitutes and advertising that fact, that makes you privileged. I’ve seen it many times. There are even some in this post. People that eat vegan because they have limited choices don’t advertise it. People that want to feel superior over others will express how much of a vegan they are.
Thanks…now I’m acutely aware of the spit in my mouth and when I swallow it.
