> robotaxis are still almost here, just around the corner, as always.

You can walk to where they're waiting for you.

Another toy project. Happy Thanksgiving for them as having it.

I wrote a toy one which works well enough for me:

It'll run on a cheap Ubuntu box if you can't get a Pi.

And lots of people seem to like Rhasspy too:

which does rather look more polished than my efforts (though I've not tried it myself).

Simple weather service added:

Feel free to hack on it, if you're still game.

Still active but rather sporadic. (Time is very much at a premium these days alas.)

I never quite got around to doing a weather module but, if you fancy trying to put one together, it should not be too hard by cargo-culting from the other services. If things are confusing then open a problem request and I will look to make them less so.

Side-threads like this are why I read HN.

FWIW the thread about my cheap & cheerful effort from a while back:

Nice to see all the other efforts. There are a decent bunch now. Go, as they say, team :)

I switched to the Zenfone series (around 6 or 7) after the HTC ones died a death. I like that they have an SD card and dual SIM. Happy with the Android version too; it's been fine from my perspective. I found them reliable and will probably upgrade my 8 flip at some point soon for this one (or a flip version), if only to try to vote with my wallet to keep Asus making more; we need more competition in the phone space.

I could shill more but that's probably enough for one evening.

Haha, very fair! Hoisted by my own leotard...

Maybe an English degree would be a good complimentary one?

"To whom..."

Sorry. Couldn't resist...

I was agreeing right up until "XML" :)
