Have an Apple Silicon mac and want to explore voice cloning? I made this variant of Chatterbox that takes advantage of Apple Silicon and does smart chunking and parallel processing for longer texts. Repo link in the comments.

Hey folks. If you're need to rsync to a Mac and it just stopped working look for sshd-keygen-wrapper Privacy & Settings > Full Disk Access n turn it on. ssh'ed accounts should just continue to follow the permissions for the accounts they are and not need this stuff!!!

So I've been building out an Open-source Curriculum AI Agent 🤖📚 Downes AI transforms lesson ideas into classroom-ready resources. Privacy-first, runs locally, built for educators by educators. #AIeducation #OpenSource #EdTech 🔗 https://t.co/5KZIhCPpFp

To many of us ruminate on great ideas instead of just building and testing. We need to start small and grow!

For anyone wanting to make their own agentic browser checkout: Browser OS It's like OpenAI's Atlas it's built on Chromium but unlike Atlas AI agents that run on YOUR browser, not in the cloud, it's privacy first - you can use local models. ++ Opensource

Tools that work locally, not relying on a central server are essential for freedom.

We've undermined, if not vandalized, the beauty of the internet by centralizing so much with the cloud. But it's never too late to fix that mistake.

Join me online next Thursday to find out about the “sales slip algorithm” that powers all of contemporary AI, the history of neural networks and how to build them yourself using @SnapCloud. This talk is part of @SAP’s #Devtoberfest and open to everyone. https://t.co/uYEekYfEe2

Locality of behavior is the design principle of organizing a system so that related behaviors or functionalities are grouped together, ensuring that interactions and interdependencies are contained within specific, logical boundaries to enhance maintainability and modularity

Separation of Concerns is design principle that involves dividing a project into distinct modules or sections, each addressing a separate concern or feature, with the goal of minimizing overlap in functionality and scope.

So over a year on YouTube, a video that shows people how to install LibreElec on a Raspberry Pi 5 to play your own, local, legally-acquired content on a TV... My video was removed because it contains 'dangerous or harmful content', and my appeal was just rejected.

Initiative is Influence: Those who take consistent, meaningful action hold natural authority. We need to lead by doing, not by decree.
