Much anticipated and finally available. I guess thank you Nvidia and regular installation on top of Debian Trixie works too so we should see support for SBCs and similar soon even though that would never be officially supported by them

This is the result of me being not happy with cli based serial consoles like tio, screen etc. When I debug many SBCs with different baud rates I just want a simple modern interface with a drop down menu for baudrate (accepts custom higher ones too). There is already a MacOS app that comes close to this but costs $39 and doesn’t have a modern terminal like ghostty behind it. This is free, will continue to improve and open source.

According to the dev who shared the screenshot of his RTX4060 ti running on a Radxa Orion O6 (Arm SystemReady) board they only needed to add the PCIe ID to the driver .inf file and it started to work.

The developer preview is intended for RTX Spark

Yet another local transcription tool but this uses Parakeet V3 (with FluidAudio / Apple CoreML under the hood) instead of Whispr and allows for easy diarization (speaker detection) and quality control of the result through an HTML interface.

This tool is a result of me realising there are no real options for interview transcriptions with speaker detection that can be used in an university study evaluation context where you do not upload the data into a someone’s else’s cloud with questionable privacy policies.

Feature summary:

- Diarized transcription — identifies speakers and assigns words to each speaker

- Plain-text output with timestamps and speaker labels

- Interactive HTML with: Color-coded speaker segments Word-level highlighting synced to playback - Click any word or segment to seek in the audio

- Rename speakers

- Built-in audio player (with playback speed selection)

Yeah fell into the same trap. Super annoying

They’re independent

Interesting takeaway:

"Was it faster than doing it solo? Probably yes, on the order of 3–5× for the work captured in these transcripts, with the speedup concentrated in:

Mass refactor / rename work (10× or more — Claude can rename a function and update 200 call sites in minutes). Code review breadth (subagent fan-out reads more files per hour than any human can). Performance analysis writeups (the “table of metrics + paragraph of prose” format is something Claude is genuinely good at and is tedious for humans)."

Jellyfin is so much ahead when it comes to hardware acceleration on different platforms that it is actually sad to see how Plex has not made any improvements in years

So today I found out the cheapest E27 smart bulb that is 1500lm bright and >90cri is actually an Ikea Kajplats Matter over Thread bulb that costs 9.99€

And it has one trick up its sleeve:

▶ If you turn it off and on 12x times it switches to a zigbee mode so I was able to integrate it into my existing HomeAssistant setup even easier
