UX-wise, from what I can glean from the .webp, I'd personally (having worked in this same space) appreciate being able to see the slices I already have without having to switch tabs back and forth, for one...

Something that always irked me about 98.css and its friends was the ever-so-slightly-incorrect version of MS Sans Serif. Finally decided to do something about it: https://github.com/jdan/98.css/pull/230

To be fair, gnu tar 1.31, 2019-01-02, added `--zstd` (and other automatic .zst support). So that support has been there for a good 7 years and 4 months at the time of writing.

This doesn't do the same thing though, since it's not Unicode aware. >>> 'x\u2009 a'.split() ['x', 'a'] # incorrect; in bytes mode, `\S` doesn't know about unicode whites

This inspired me to update my over-a-decade-old glitch generator https://akx.github.io/glitch2/ with camera input and a handful of new modules.

It's pretty good. And for once, a software-engineering-ly high-quality codebase, too! All too often, new models' codebases are just a dump of code that installs half the universe in dependencies for no reason, etc.

These days, once you have https://docs.astral.sh/uv/ installed, `uvx --from service-ping-sping sping` is pretty much zero effort to run this software.

This is a fun model for circuit-bending, because the voice style vectors are pretty small. For instance, try adding `np.random.shuffle(ref_s[0])` after the line `ref_s = self.voices[voice]`... EDIT: be careful with your system volume settin

Ah, yeah, good catch – I added the model-native speed multiplier to the CLI too (`--speed=1.2` for instance).

`uv run --offline` will use cached dependencies and not check for newer versions. Works for `uvx` too, i.e. `uvx --offline ...`.

This is what stable-diffusion-webui does too (though the format is unfortunately plaintext); ComfyUI stores the node graph as JSON, etc.

And when you run the upgrade-all-dependencies script and some dependency has a semver-major/otherwise breaking upgrade, everything depending on it breaks at once. Hopefully one of those things isn't your backup cronjob.
