So that you can get a version that you don't have to host yourself? Needs differ, and businesses exist, you know.

Also:

This has existed long before the AI hype. Dialog systems were around in the 80s, operating off of tapes. The concept itself is even older.

I ran an Asterisk server with speech recognition 20 years ago. Sure, TTS didn't nearly have the recognition rates it has today, but it was enough to figure out the caller's intent from the email message that was delivered after the fact.

I still run a very similar setup today, except I no longer self host and pretty much ever component has improved. Honestly, its a godsend to be able to deal with people or businesses that still rely on phone conversations, something I will never tolerate. I simply don't do phone calls.

Would you do this mainly because you want to figure out if you can, or mostly due to the 40€ price difference?

The latest Raspberry Pi cameras have decent sensors, variants with night vision are available. Axis makes reliable, network attached cameras.

Open-source software like Frigate or ZoneMinder exists.

Still, would you really want that? A half-baked device in your network, a device you suspect would constantly betray you, if given the chance?

I personally can't imagine getting used to that. I'd despise the device (and myself probably).

Also, let's not forget gamebooks.

It's canon that he can alter the speed at which information is processed / how he perceives the flow of time / events.

Where are those shots?

Nah really, I'd like to see some examples of said aesthetic to figure out if I can see it. If you don't want to post your own, store bough examples are fine, too.

Pretty cool

Alright, still lost the modifier key though.

Quick reminder that, if you're working with foxes, echinococcosis is an issue in the US and Canada as well. It's still pretty rare, but boy does it suck if you become infected.

When I moved to Europe, I worked as a ranger's assistant for a while and vaccinations were mandatory. A screening of foxes revealed around 22% of all foxes screened (around 500 at the time) were infected.

If you work in or operate a sanctuary etc., I think it'd be worthwhile to think about getting the vaccine no matter what part of the world you're in.

I'm 100% sure I can wash that throw.
