Any good idea to get HuggingFace TTS models to work in Firefox on Linux? (lemmy.today)

Does anyone have any experience with HuggingFace TTS models in Firefox? I know that there is a mobile application that allows you to change your default TTS engine to one of the models. I also know of an old method to get different, better-sounding TTS to work in Firefox. I think I was also able to get the Microsoft voices working through the same method with some workarounds, but I'm unable to provide a link. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I bet that if they use the correct technologies (LIDAR and laser guidance systems), they would be a lot safer than regular drivers. Of course, computers make mistakes, but humans also don't have the best track record in terms of driving safety. You're technically not wrong though.

You're an actual moron if you truly believe that.

What a shitty take. Imagine betting on something with a poor human rights record and countless privacy violation. America may have it's faults, but it will get ironed out like it always does. I'm hoping for everybody's sake that China doesn't become the new global superpower. America has the soft power thing down to the t at least.

As for the other claims you made, source?

In my humble opinion Bush kind of fucked America up, but that is fixable.
