catastrophizing again with not a single soul around me to calm me down

so yes i will continue to call the X (Formerly Twitter) website X (Formerly Twitter) since that is X (Formerly Twitter)'s official title

no it's not discord's fault. this is "X (Formerly Twitter)"'s actual opengraph metadata. they always called themselves "X (Formerly Twitter)", it wasn't others who came up with it out of spite.

"stop calling it twitter or formerly twitter we get it call it x and move on" friend their own embed cards still call it twitter

still don't understand what is the social point, what you are trying to communicate, by only liking a post on which someone has asked a question and asked for boosts on

"hey how do i do xyz?" "haha great post man"

this is almost worse than people liking my suicidal posts

decentralization was a mistake

wouldn't it be great if fediverse software knew when to fetch all the parts of a remote thread like say if you're trying to look at it in your local instance i mean it knows enough that it's part of a thread to change a measly reply icon into two arrows instead of one surely it should be np-complete to be able to know to fetch the rest of that thread too so you don't have to go chasing it down in another domain

hmmmm

better question: is there any text to speech that doesn't use neural networks or other types of classic or newly-labelled AI or did that stop with dectalk?

yes i expect worse sounding results ​

there was a post here. i wrote it and deleted it three times. this is all that's left

ooouuugh

this is not really a subtoot of anyone in particular because it keeps happening so much. like people assuming i'm either a guy or non-binary because i use it/its as my secondary pronouns (the primary are byte/byteself, which nobody ever uses)

what exactly does it take for people to understand that my name is properly spelled all lowercase. because whatever it is i'm not doing it enough. capital m Mavica is the Sony camera, not me

god forbid i point out you're different than me clearly i'm trying to attack you. we should all be striving for homogeneity

is there some list of offline-only text-to-speech tools one could peruse if they were looking for a voice for themself ​
