>>17034 Sorry I thought I had heard that AI voice generators only require short clips now. That doesn't really matter to me because I have more than an hour of potential training data. The most important thing is that I don't have to sign in with Google+ or Discord or whatever. Just have AI generate a voice based on my training data, and then have AI generate a sound clip of the voice reading my text in the newly generated voice. Think of those Dagoth Ur ones people were making not too long ago. Seems like this type of service was easily available back then.

How feasible is a 2GB HD 7850? I have an old i5-2500K PC with 16GB of DDR3 (no GPU). I want to turn it into a PS2/PS3 emulation machine. Other than emulation, the most demanding game I play with this PC outside emulation is Dawn of War Soulstorm and SWAT 4.
>>17144 You can probably do PCSX2 at reduced settings. I wouldnt bother trying RPCS3.

Hydrus Network General #11 Anonymous Board volunteer 02/05/2025 (Wed) 22:34:45 No. 17183 [Reply] [Last] >>17184
This is a thread for releases, bug reports, and other discussion for the hydrus network software. The hydrus network client is an application written for Anon and other internet-fluent media nerds who have large image/swf/webm collections. It browses with tags instead of folders, a little like a booru on your desktop. Users can choose to download and share tags through a Public Tag Repository that now has more than 2 billion tag mappings, and advanced users may set up their own repositories just for themselves and friends. Everything is free and privacy is the first concern. Releases are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and it is now easy to run the program straight from source. I am the hydrus developer. I am continually working on the software and try to put out a new release every Wednesday by 8pm EST. Past hydrus imageboard discussion, and these generals as they hit the post limit, are being archived at >>>/hydrus/ . Hydrus is a powerful and complicated program, and it is not for everyone. If you would like to learn more, please check out the extensive help and getting started guide here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/

>>17229 Thanks for the reply! >How would you, in an ideal world, like to handle the overall problem of duplicate note names and/or texts? Don't know about an ideal world but the way I expected it to work was to simply add a note with the specified content even if it's duplicate content. Since it's a custom parser I personally don't have to worry about spammy notes. I just want to have notes created with the content that they get from the data if it exists. It's not the end of the world since the data is technically preserved but it's a bit annoying that I don't know which of the fields that I'm scraping was actually populated. Maybe adding an option to note content parser settings to have that specific one not get deduplicated?
Oh, and another question! Are the databases between hydrus platforms interchangeable? Can I go from using the windows client, move the data to the docker image and then if need be return with the updated data back to the windows client without data loss?
>>17238 I switched from running the windows binary in Wine, to running the Linux binary, then running on Linux from source, all with the same database, so it should be fine

Does anyone know why 4chan killed itself? The five minute countdown captcha was bad enough, but they recently upped it to 15 minutes OR email verification. Why is 4chan of all things collecting people's emails? That's not what 4chan is about. Also, they implemented really weird rules where you would get shadow banned for saying tranny or other words 3 times. It really seems like some tranny mod from Reddit recently hijacked 4chan or something.

4chan is a fed honeypot, that's why
>>17124 That's what I've always suspected, but it doesn't explain all the weird recent shit going on.
How do you even get people interested in alt chans? It seems like the potential audience is always a subset of 4chan. And that if 4chan were to actually disappear, most of the posters would effectively be lost to the void. Honestly I miss how 4chan used to be. As silly as it is, I used to get a feeling of "I'm home" when I posted on 4chan. Posting and having fun with people interested in the same topic as me. I could post freely my thoughts without fear of ban or deletion. Nowadays it feels like your walking on eggshells when you post anything. Even unintentionally you can earn their ire now. Say anything bad about one of the jannies sacred topics and it's a ban. Even automated bans and shadow bans if you use certain terms, terms that had previously been common on the board for at least the past decade. Now you got all these hoops to jump through just to post. And the boards are loosing posters and interesting topics. I get the feeling that a lot of people are getting fed up with it. And those that do stay tone down and sterilize their posts in a futile attempt to avoid the wrath of the jannies, not taking chances on posting new ideas. It's sad to see, the Anons don't deserve this. I can only imagine what feats Anons might have achieved if the boards were staffed with people who cared. Or even just staff who weren't actively malicious.

>>16498 "Only government is allowed to do stuff in Antarctica. No one goes there without a government permission" Well, yes and no. I worked there for a year as a contractor. The private company I worked for had a contract with the federal government to perform specific work and they hired private citizens to complete that work on a contract basis. I was not a direct government employee. There are many companies based there and each have their own networking infrastructure though I never learned if we all share the same satellite connections or if each company had their own. That said, I could so a lot on our network. I don't think I could have gotten away with having a tor exit but did used tor when I was there. Most things we could do here we could do there.
>>16600 >No one goes there without a government permission <Wrong, I went there as a private citizen with government permission!
I find it curious that there hasn't been a single mention of I2P in this thread. It that supposed to mean it's shit?

I want to like it but it feels way like it's trying to be a middleground between a tablet OS and a desktop OS, and floundering at both. It's way better than it was 10 years ago, at least.
>>17210 >It's way better than it was 10 years ago, at least. Nah. Gnome went to shit 15 years ago and never recovered from there.

The Regional Keyboard Problem Anonymous 01/26/2025 (Sun) 17:37:38 No. 17107 [Reply]
Most computer languages were made with standard American keyboards in mind, especially in regards to symbol choices. This goes for standard keyboard shortcuts in software too. For example, with the french AZERTY layout, the backslash and special brackets require you to twist your right hand to write them and you need different hands for opening and closing them. My question to you non Americans is: how do you deal with it? Do you use and memorize the American layout while your keycaps still have the regional layout? Do you import your keyboard or reorder your keycaps? Do you switch between layouts for coding and messaging? Do you rebind certain characters to certain key combinations? Or do you just twist your wrist and live with it? I'm really curious to hear your perspectives on this.

why haven't you used nntpchan? NNTPChan (previously known as overchan) is a decentralized imageboard that uses the NNTP protocol (network-news transfer protocol) to synchronize content between many different servers. It utilizes cryptographically signed posts to perform optional/opt-in decentralized moderation https://github.com/konamicode9/nntpchan

New thread here >>>/t/17183 This thread should be migrated to >>>/hydrus/ soon. Thanks everyone! >>17180 Thanks, interesting that the update could invalidate your venv. I thought a venv made a copy of the python executable used to create it, so it was all completely enclosed, but perhaps it can symlink sometimes, and your OS updating to Python 3.13 broke that somehow. You did everything correct in the setup_venv script. Glad you are working again.
