Before people start assigning blame, just pointing out that even if all independent votes magically counted for Kamala (ranked choice would be so cool...) it wouldn't have changed the outcome at all

Amazing handheld attention sinks + low quality education during the pandemic seems like a deadly combo. I wonder if reading rates will bounce back at all given a few years.

This implementation is fine but the text to speech is meh, Google's uses https://google-research.github.io/seanet/soundstorm/examples/ which is unfortunately not open source

Could you give an example of a game no longer available? Just checked and was able to dl Luigi's Mansion just fine

Sorry for the ambiguity, I intend to use this for audio applications (specifically I want to shift 20 kHz to 100 kHz down to human hearing range, tunable by a pot.)

Given the price and low supply I think I'll go ahead and try to wind my own transformers--thanks for the video, seems perfect!

 

I've recently been learning about superhet and frequency mixing and wanted to start tinkering. Specifically I'd like to try using two heterodynes in series to first frequency shift then uninvert the original audio, sort of like an analog frequency shifter.

To do this, I'd need a frequency mixer. I've been looking at a ring modulator (like https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1b/Diode_DBM.png) which should require 4 shottky diodes and 2 center-tapped transformers. I've had difficulty locating an affordable transformer, with good enough fidelity for audio, that also includes a center tap.

I have a few questions:

  • Where can I locate affordable, good-enough-for-audio transformers?
  • Is the ring mod approach good enough? I see there's also a gilbert cell.
  • Any general advice for someone just starting a project like this?

Thanks!

For a country with a huge amount of land and shore, that makes sense for them. But some form of nuclear (uranium fission, thorium fission, fusion?!) continues to be an important part of the world's weaning off of fossil fuels

For the majority of human history, we've eaten around wood (around a campfire, a hearth, etc), it makes sense it would become intertwined with our food palette

I would say it is, it can be a huge part of the city's culture

In my experience, mypy + pydantic is a recipe for success, especially for large python projects

 

Hi everyone,

I have put together a simple python script to automatically transcode all your favorited music on Jellyfin to a directory, for use with, for example, Syncthing. This has made it dead simple to manage the subset of my music library I keep downloaded on my phone: simply favorite to add, unfavorite to remove.

I'm hoping that someone out there finds it useful. Let me know if you have any questions.

 

Union Berlin scored right after a penalty save to bring them up to 3rd place in their group. massive!

Hi everyone,

I've got quite a long drive coming up and was interested in finding some audiobooks, which got me thinking, has anyone listened to (also, do they exist) any programming-centric audiobooks recently?

I figure podcasts might be the more popular format for technical content, but I'd be more interested in an audiobook if people know of any good ones.

I'm primarily a python developer if that helps narrow it down. Interested in LLMs, python core stuff, message brokers, databases, whatever!

Let me know if you have any leads!

 

I enjoy making and sharing things, like websites, music, art, whatever. Is there a good lemmy community for this? It can be media-specific or not, but I've browsed all communities for a while and nothing has popped up at me.
