Got one of those new Pebble Index rings. Really appreciate that: 1. It only records when you tell it to, 2. they let you just turn off all the cloud LLM shit and just process on your phone and pipe voice-to-text through a webhook to whatever you want

I've been dabbling with something called VoiceVox recently, which is a Japanese program that's sort of similar to Vocaloids except it's text to speech instead of mapping to MIDI, and it's really fucking fascinating how the guts of this shit works

I can't wait until I unveil this elaborate science project I've been doing so that I can bitch about how much more of a pain in the ass it was to mod this robotics toy for middle schoolers into the thing I wanted. They just straight up have wrong parts and incorrect instructions
