  • Is there any FOSS full speech recognition user friendly software yet?

  • For PC's the whisper can be now run on many common laptops and desktops ( with almost good accuracy ) , thanks to projects like whisper.cpp and faster-whisper.

    There also happens a lot of model's getting released by meta like wav2vec2 and MMS ( not seen using anywhere though )

    I guess there are many python packages for aforementioned projects too.

  • systemd 255-rc1 Brings "Blue Screen of Death" Support and New Tool To Spawn VMs

  • I thought I would never have to see BSOD after switching to linux, but here we go...

    [ tbh, I love that errors are presented much better, just that the name doesn't bring back much good memories.

  • Linux holds more than 8% market share in India, and it's on the upward trend

    Jump

  • Glad that there are govt. level systems who make use of Linux (mostly ubuntu ) systems here. For eg. , in kerala, all govt schools and colleges use linux for computer labs and academic activities, i guess the local body administration too use ubuntu.

    Only wish we could convince those private sector schools of the money they'll save converting those slow windows systems to linux.

    Do you use Ublock Origin with Tor browser even though it affects fingerprint?

  • Doesn't Tor on Tails come with ublock origin ? I don't get why Tor doesn't come with it preinstalled too

  • Attachment previews are now displayed in the message list in Proton Mail

    Jump

  • Yeah. I would've loved if it were optional / configurable .

  • Attachment previews are now displayed in the message list in Proton Mail

    Jump

  • Yeah, its as if some new developers entered or something. Or maybe they started posting little stuff more often.

    Whatever it is, i'm glad.

  • Trying to figure out how to find community on @mastodon trying to completely switch over from Twitter

    Jump

  • It mainly depends on your likes. What i did was to find one or two accounts related to my favourite topic and then checking their "following" tab. It really helps to Fill my feed

    Also, most accounts boost other accounts/ post, which also acts as a way for me to discover accounts.

  • The new Proton VPN Linux app is officially out of beta!

    Jump

  • I think not. There only seems to be only 2 dev's working on linux app, and thir current priority is to bring wireguard to the app and preferrably , an updated CLI too.

  • The new Proton VPN Linux app is officially out of beta!

    Jump

  • I think not. From the reddit discussion, it seems that only 2 dev's ( they are hiring one more soon ) work for linux support, and they can't currently spread too thin.

  • The new Proton VPN Linux app is officially out of beta!

    Jump

  • Tried it in debian today. Yeah, its bad that the app need to be open inorder to have connection. They could've made it go background ( like telegram or discord does ), which would be better.

  • YouTube's anti-adblock rollout has finally arrived for Firefox users

  • I just had to uninstall "Enhancer for youtube", and reload the YT page. Not even ubock cache clearing was necessary. ( maybe different for different people )

  • Block Entire Instance?

    Jump

  • Right now, this feature is client specific. Some have it ( like Sync ), most dont.

    The happy news is , a serverside option to block an instance is already merged and will be available in next (big) Lemmy upgrade 19.0. After that, the client apps will easily be able to implement it ( Now, i guess they are just filtering posts client side if from that instance )

  • Gnome 45 is here

    Jump

  • Since that post was'nt available for me atm, just reposting relevant Github blog : 1-Click RCE on GNOME

    The TL;DR

    libcue is a library used for parsing cue sheets—a metadata format for describing the layout of the tracks on a CD. it’s used by tracker-miners: an application that’s included with GNOME.The index is automatically updated when you add or modify a file in certain subdirectories of your home directory, in particular including ~/Downloads. To make a long story short, that means that inadvertently clicking a malicious link is all it takes for an attacker to exploit CVE-2023-43641 and get code execution on your computer.
