 Translation can be done locally. I want, hope to inspire, pretty well demand that we have an annual Awards Program honouring apps, people, companies and innovations that work just for you. Translation, dns look ups, weight watching, excersizing, anything, so long as it acts for you, giving what you need, withiut telling a selfserving monopoly, a political vengence group or legal authorities that you are pregnant, like men, or need an abortion, or fight monopolies, or raise wages. 9 comments
@pixelpusher220 @kevinrns what about the people who had pictures of them on the toilet end up on the internet because employees of Roomba was passing them around  Except those cameras that automatically upload to a monoploy for "ease of use" oh, that, wait, wait, the picture that proved I was at the party where we discussed mocking new british laws! Oh no! Ill bet the biggest cpu phones have the power to transcribe, but, Id nominate the app that a local sequesteted network to share that duty, for a Jeeves (needs a better name) Award. Heres a four year old story about some devices you can get in a remainder bin. And just to point out, Android is enshittified open source. "Pixel 4 Recorder app can transcribe speech in real time without an internet connection" Color me skeptical that smart speakers are remotely as powerful as a phone. Sure you *could* but they didn't b/c they didn't have too. Not at all the same thing. I don't want my speaker to translate, or transcribe or listen, really ever. But if I had a tool, I'd want it done with as much privacy as my parents and yours had. I want, I think we all want tools that just work for us, like a shovel. Really tired of surveillance, and at this time of billionaires paying to get rid of democracy, its downright dangerous. My phone, my computer, all my devices, no reporting to some corporation or anyone. An Awards Show, every year. |

No tiny device is going to do voice transcription locally beyond the activation words. But the recordings listening for it can and are uploaded.
Almost like we need a TOR type protocol to send the data thru so you can make use of the power of the cloud without it making g use of *you*
With an open source local device of course!
