@nixCraft Time to develop and install directional waste heat radiators on the space DC so they can be used as (admittedly slow) thrusters to break earth orbit, slow down in the solar orbit, and yeet itself into the sun by falling.

The techbros would do it themselves if their slop autocomplete frames it as a way to put the space DC on a more stable and predictable orbital trajectory.

This is a good time for a friendly reminder to keep your personal and sensitive data separate from your gaming or testing hardware, if at all possible.

More plainly: If you can help it, don't keep your password manager or do your banking on your gaming computer

the Arch User Repository package alvr has been orphaned, then adopted by a threat actor who immediately updated it with an infostealer. If you have this package on your system and updated it recently, you've been compromised. This is not a result of any upstream compromise; it's just that one AUR package. in particular, the alvr-bin sister package seems to be fine.

Attached is a screenshot of an announcement from the "Linux VR Adventures" discord.

Did a presentation on my VR setup at work today just for fun, since I usually show up to meetings in VR during halloween week and everyone seemed interested.

And somehow managed to pull off the most perfect scrungle demonstration ever.

We need a VRChat scrungle olympics.

Comic Sans is the Never Gonna Give You Up of fonts.

There's nothing wrong with it, it's a perfectly enjoyable thing, it's just got so many associations with negative things that people are rarely happy to encounter it

re: No-AI TTS question 

I still welcome help and/or recommendations for alternatives.

Balabolka runs on Windows 7, and it found a SAPI 5 voice I sorta like: Microsoft Anna. Sorta because it trips on some word combinations.

re: No-AI TTS question 

I'm scared to use anything cloud-based because half of them say they're slop-powered and the other half don't imply they're not.

I have espeak-ng, but I would need some serious help making its speech reasonable.

I have Balabolka on Windows 10, but IDK if it still works on Windows 7 or older, if it isn't slop itself, or how to install SAPI voices other than Microsoft Sam, and I'd need help and/or pointers.

I also want to know what other options I have.

No-AI TTS question 

I have an urge to make how-to and let's-explore videos, but the 2019 flu made it too painful to talk for long enough to narrate anything. That means my only options are either captions over voiceless videos or using a text-to-speech (TTS) program to read text I write.

What are my slop-free options for TTS programs and feminine voices folks would be willing to listen to?

I prefer a FreeBSD program, but one for Linux, Windows 7, or an easy to emulate older OS can work as well.
