I did similar and you summarized the feelings well. It's really sad and hard to rebuild that trust And disheartening that people continue to gravitate to a political party that proudly announces desires to abuse this data.

I installed Whisper+ through FDroid and it works well for my basic needs. Only 30s at a time but you can append multiple recordings to the same transcript: https://github.com/woheller69/whisperIMEplus

If you read his support page it's apparent why not. This is a labor of love which he can still hardly keep afloat after trying a variety of income sources such as ads and direct sponsorships. https://www.fieggen.com/sh

Thanks! I've had good results with Turboscribe (paid plan) and appreciate having this as a service. I typically use it for 2-3 hour long video recordings with a number of speakers and appreciate the editing tools to clean things up b

You're starting with the assumption that ethics are a priority for clients. While certainly and extreme case, don't forget that Enron was happy with Arthur Andersen's auditing for quite a while...

Why couldn't they threaten to stop delivering? I was under the impression that only the Postal Service (USPS) had a regulatory mandate to serve all US addresses.

In theory sure but have you been following Congress for the past decade? They can't even come to terms on continuing resolution funding bills, let alone pass complex rules related to new contentious technologies. Perhaps I'm just

They have done a pretty solid job with PopOS, so I am inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Do you just mean existing as rich as the stories depict? My understanding is that there is ample evidence Mansa Musa existed and ruled Mali: it's just the measure of his wealth that is questionable.

What is your basis for "It’s more costly to handle cash than to pay credit card companies."? It seems much more likely that they are encouraging cash with lower prices to avoid paying the typical ~1-5% transaction costs to Visa&#

I completely agree with your overall point about the fantastic night sky but it should be no surprise that people suggest sunrise, as the Hawaiian Haleakala literally translates to "house of the sun".

And in the US in 2023, we're still busy whittling down what little regulatory protections our wetlands still have (Sackett v. EPA)

Yeah while the recent Dane County turnout was impressive I am similarly not convicted that it can be extrapolated to WI statewide elections generally. The Supreme Court race had huge spending and happened as the Dobbs decision was very fre

I may just not be as picky as others but I have felt my System76 laptop's trackpad with PopOS is quite smooth. Improved from when I previously just installed Ubuntu on random Dell laptops.

I'm not sure where to find whole beans but I'm pretty sure many brands of instant coffee (e.g. the Folgers and Nescafe of the world) actually use Robusto or at least a blend of Robusto and Arabica.

I am not familiar with the legal specifics but per the article: "Although Freenom is based in The Netherlands, some of its other sister companies named as defendants in the lawsuit are incorporated in the United States."

Perhaps not very advantageous power for the retirement benefits but I think it still shows the immense influence of the industry. I'm not aware of other private companies which are exempt from paying into Social Security and have an en

Agreed. To your initial point Jack Daniel's marketing relies so heavily on being "Tennessee Whiskey" I think it would be harder for them than other companies to threaten to move to a state with looser rules (e.g. Boeing in SC

In theory, anything is possible with enough funding. But this does not seem like a very efficient option especially when we already have other federal and state agencies with specific rail and transit purviews.
