10·1 month agocmatrixhas it’s own features, and has most certainly been an inspiration. At first I made a project as a matrix-clone, in c.Later on I added an extra feature in another project, rendering ascii-art in the foreground. In this step I tried taking a step further on.
I am a linux user, this is a FOSS project that I created.
This is a project that makes my linux experience more pleasant.
Is this a project that might interest other linux users, or might make their experience better?
Judging from the 49 upvotes so far, yes.
Do you share the same opinion? I don’t know.
If not, feel free to downvote, and/or move on.
I stand corrected.
A cron job would not be a bad idea.
piper
Indeed piper performs very well. Thank you for the input, I will most certainly consider adding the option to select tts engine in the near future, piper sounds totally worth it.
speech-dispatcher
If you are referring to locally generated speech synthesis, the respecting outcome as far as I am concerned generally sounds generally poorer, and is more difficult to manage. However you can check out the original project https://gitlab.com/christosangel/sapo, where the audio files are generated locally.
Do you mean an option to choose between various tts methods?
And, as far as
send-your-text-to-Microsoft bitgoes, well, if MS wants a copy of Brothers Karamazov, they can save themselves the trouble and get it here , it is free https://www.gutenberg.org/
I totally undersand what you are saying. Initially, the original project used local text-to-speech, but was less than perfect, slower and cpu-costly.
You can check it out here https://gitlab.com/christosangel/sapo
Once a FOSS solution gets better and more usable, swapping the tts conversion is not a great deal.
Check out basht
Hey, I know the guy who wrote the script, he is great.
I have never tried it. But debian based + xfce, so you know what to expect.
Sure, it is a Potatomatic 4000, 2nd edition. No, not Alacrity. Thx though.
I have no idea. On an old potato laptop I tried it on it works ok, if I rush the keys, it is flickering a little.
This is a long list of terminal goodies: https://github.com/toolleeo/cli-apps/
Also, check the games that I have written, in the same spirit as this one:

Someone should come up with a new distro with the name potatOS, just for cases like this .
UPDATE: I have just added another animation option (hop), you can check it out here.
