[mkiol]

Hi. Thanks for reporting.

Could you please start the app with --verbose option to collect more logs?

flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --verbose

I ran that command. This is what I get:

I can click on any language model to download them and almost none of them download. I just get an error saying that it can't download.

And if it successfully downloaded, I get this:

I can't download any language models. So, I can't use this application until this issue is resolved.

This is super weird 🤔

Could you please re-install and delete app data. This can be done with the following commands:

flatpak uninstall net.mkiol.SpeechNote --delete-data
flatpak install net.mkiol.SpeechNote

If the problem persists, paste the full log of the app launch here.

Seems like deleting the app data fixed it. But also, it seems like my PiHole server was blocking access to coqui.gateway.scarf.sh. So, I whitelisted that. I block a lot of shit on the Internet (from much of big tech, to mainstream social media and other trash). 😅

Seems like it's fixed for me.

[mkiol]

Cool! I'm super glad you fixed it :)

PiHole server was blocking access to coqui.gateway.scarf.sh

Yes, this is a Coqui proxy that always redirects to Github URLs. I probably need to rewrite these links to direct links to Github. It is very sad but Coqui is shutting down and this proxy may no longer work.

Honestly, it's sad that the more people use the Internet, the more it's turning to shit with the constant enshittification. Which is why I have to go to such extremes to filter the crap out with a PiHole server (along with my own hosted search engine by using SearXNG with link filtering as well).

Anyway, I am going to be using this program again at some point. And I am going to try dictation. Right now, I am just writing on paper to get my thoughts out.

I love it, we need more rants that tell it like it is

Glad you agree. Now, if the rest of the masses didn't waste their lives on such brain rot online (AKA social media). Then we'd be back in a better place.

[crowlogic]

I agree I don't have a social media whatever that is. I only know know that actual social interaction sometimes it happens in a place known as the world or reality or over there. I have a working theory that Facebook has been more detrimental society than the production of crack cocaine and heroin combined. Zuckerberg is more guilty than El Chapo

All of Meta (Instragram etc), Twitter (now X), Tiktok, and Youtube, has done a number to people's psyche. For this reason, I am glad I blocked all of it; except Youtube (on the PiHole) as other people watch it. Thankfully, they don't use anything else (nor engage with others on such brain rot platforms). It's bad enough watching people walking down the street with their heads looking at their phones while walking and almost getting hit by vehicles due to being so unaware of their surroundings.

Anyway, I use Odysee and Peertube and get RSS feeds from those and can view videos through the RSS guard application. So, I hardly have a reason to open a web browser anymore.

Hi I swear I'm not just feeling extra agreeable today but I usually agree YouTube does not count as social media My well my unified theory will actually show that many of Terence McKenna's statements were more than just metaphors probably

"Hey. If any of you are looking for any last-minute gift ideas for me, I have one. I'd like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane with all the other rich people, and I want him brought right here... with a big ribbon on his head! And I want to look him straight in the eye, and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-assed, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed, sack of monkey shit he is! Hallelujah! Holy shit! Where's the Tylenol?"

This captures the full intensity and humor of Clark's frustration in that memorable scene.

It's all social media really. If it has a comments section, it's social media. And it's designed to be just as addictive as any other social media platform. Least I can say Odysee and Peertube aren't really social as hardly anyone comments on videos there. Which is nice.

[crowlogic]

Holy smokes is the email social media? I feel so dirty I need to take a shower

Nope. It isn't like everyone can see a regular email like you could see everyone's comments on YouTube. Anyway, nice chatting.

PS: I haven't been talking on here through email. Just FYI.

[crowlogic]

You too homie, best internet chat I've had that I can remember in quite some time.
