I don’t if OP stripped the comic of its identifying info or found it in that state, but if anyone else is interested, the comic artist is berkeleymews

My go-to fave is Peroni 0.0%

Not sure it’s available in Australia, but it’s really good NA beer imo. Someone else mentioned hop water. It’s more like soda, at least to me, but similarly bright and v fizzy

Cory Wong! Band is as tight as can be. Vibe is playful, dynamic, and celebratory of all on stage.

Have seen him live only once, but he posts incredibly well-mixed and edited full-length concerts on his YouTube.

He fully deserves his blowup. Incredible musicianship abounds around him

I hear you. VST/VST3 support is inconsistent through wine and while there are some alternatives to some plugins, I’m not committed enough to give up the ogs I love just yet.

To my knowledge, Recall rollout is currently only to Copilot+ PCs, and my debloated Win11 is safe for now. I’ll remain vigilant, though 🫡

Working with an LLM, I’ve been able to use vosk and python to get something that works well, given a small delay. Using pyautogui, sounddevice, and keyboard, it works. I also implemented a toggle for transcription using a keyboard shortcut. Not as nice as having a gui and more options, but it does the job.

I’d still be interested if anyone knows of a simpler “just works” solution, but this does seem like it’ll suit my needs. Hopefully others can find this helpful.

It’s “formerly.” Whether or not he wore a suit didn’t change his legal name back from the symbol

It appears both are correct. From merriam-webster:

mpv is better than either imo. Was a long time vlc user who switched this past year. It’s highly customizable with a bevy of support documentation, has an incredibly clean ui, and most importantly, it just works flawlessly. I highly recommend it

I started this past year with iDrive because of their incredible welcome deal if you switch from another service. I started a trial with Dropbox with the same email and sent them the requested screenshots for verification- they approved it. Spending $10 for the first year of 5TB

It’s pretty slow on uploading, but it works. Customer service is attentive and caring. Probably going to go to a local NAS and a different online solution within the year. It’s a nice cheap padding as I learn how to do this right. The intro deal might be worth it for you, too, though I don’t think it’s the best long-term option

Hi there! While my situation is not as dire as the OPs, I’m in a similar boat and am looking to set up an online presence for my services in the near-future. I don’t expect you to provide me with the same offer, or even a response, but I figured I’d ask. If there are any guides or resources you recommend, I’d appreciate anything. Thank you for your comment, it’s a good idea for people in similar situations and spurred me to more seriously consider such options
