A good reason to vote for the Dems, Musk has brought this on himself,





This beautiful #DiadeLosMuertos altar was designed and arranged by the students of the Latinos Unidos club at our school (where I work). The photos are of loved ones who have passed. It’s a powerful and humbling work of art and emotion. The images on the floor are several square feet each, and are painstakingly arranged piece by piece using beans, rice, and corn.

Trump, sexual content

re: Trump, sexual content
He's actually just showing how he had to bend over so far to get to the mic. His mouth apparently is just locked in that shape.

I think the crowd goes wild because they are brainwashed to think all of his jokes are hilarious.

Microsoft works to make Recall "secure and trusted" after security complaints.

Good luck for that.

mastodon.online/@mastodonmigra… mastodonmigration@mastodon.online - Trump is Deadcatting Again

We really need to call out the politic strategy Trump has deployed these last few days.

What he's doing is called a "dead cat strategy" or "deadcatting".

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_cat…

When things get really bad; the debate, Taylor Swift, and now the Madison Square Garden garbage fiasco, the strategy is to do anything to change the subject; eating cats, death threats, oral sex simulation. All of this crazy stuff is actually 'deadcatting'.

#GrapheneOS doesn't come with text-to-speech enabled or set up by default.

github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng is not compatible with the current Android versions and github.com/RHVoice/RHVoice doesn't have support for #German.

Any recommendation for me? FOSS preferred. 🤔

#Android #TTS #voice

in reply to chewy

Make sure you download the correct architecture

armeabi-v7a = 32bit

arm64-v8a = 64 bit

3. open the app and download the German language pack

4. select via the settings that GrapheneOS should use this app for the voice output

5. so that no data is sent to Google, the app can be completely denied Internet access in the network settings.

The voice output should now work without a connection to Google

apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/g…

in reply to chewy

@chewy I don't know what exactly you mean with "open the app". I've opened the tts setting in the OS preferences and selected German.

Following your directions exactly also led to the same error while trying to select German in step 3: paste.debian.net/1334405/

in reply to Karl Voit

I think you have a Pixel 8. Did you choose the 64 bit version of APK Mirror? And deleted the previously installed version of the voice output? By “open the app” I don't mean the app itself, but the voice output of GrapheneOS.

Settings --> Accessibility --> Voice output --> Preferred module --> Google voice output

Tap on the gear wheel and select Install voice data --> Select German

in reply to chewy

@chewy Yes to the 64bit version. Yes to uninstalling the Play APK beforehand.

Interesting: I've got no "Voice output" in the Accessibility menu. Can you show me a screenshot from the page before "Sprachausgabe"?

in reply to chewy

@chewy Perfect. Yes, that is called "Text-to-speech output" in English and this is the thing I was using to download the "Language". When I select "German", the screen closes and I'm back in the "Accessibility" menu.

When I do that a second time, I get the "Settings keeps stopping" dialog with "App info", "Close app" and "Show details". The last one shows the stacktrace I published earlier.

So with my GrapheneOS (latest stable) on Pixel 8, this method does not seem to work.

in reply to Karl Voit

I'm sorry to hear that.

Unfortunately, I have no further ideas.

After some research I found the following, maybe that will help you

giga.de/tech/grapheneos-instal…

in reply to chewy

@chewy Now I purged the Play Store version again and installed the APK by manually downloading huggingface.co/csukuangfj/sher…

The dialog in the TTS now looks different: there's only the default and "German" for selection. On selecting German, the app crashes again with the same error. 🤷

in reply to Karl Voit

restart your phone so that all settings are applied correctly
in reply to chewy

@chewy Good idea but didn't help either.

Set language to German. Reboot. Checked language which was in it's default again. Changing still results in crashing.

in reply to Karl Voit

I'm sorry, I don't have any more solutions.

Maybe you should post your stacktrace in a GrapheneOS forum to be able to analyze the problem more precisely.
