AFAIK they had issues with their monero node sync and it has been solved. I had a warning on kycnot.me for this, but I have now just removed it since I just tested and I was able to withdraw and exchange XMR just fine.

Also, for what I know, they had a ddos attack and their site was unresponsive (for what I also put a warning on kycnot.me the moment I became aware of the issue), seems like the attack is over, as the site was responsive when I was testing a few hours ago.

Tailscale does not offer this. It is a community project. Headscale is not official.

Whishper uses faster-whisper in the backend.

Simply put, it is a complete UI for Faster-Whisper with extra features like transcription translation, edition, download options, etc...

Whisper models have a very good WER (word error ratio) for languages like Spanish, English, French... if you use the english-only models it also improves. Check out this page on the docs:

No, it's completely independent, it does not rely on any third-party APIs or anything else. It can function entirely offline once the models have been downloaded.

 

Hi everyone!

A few days ago I released Whishper, a new version of a project I've been working for about a year now.

It's a self-hosted audio transcription suite, you can transcribe audio to text, generate subtitles, translate subtitles and edit them all from one UI and 100% locally (it even works offline).

I hope you like it, check out the website for self-hosting instructions: https://whishper.net

 

Hi all, I'm pluja maintainer of kycnot.me.

Last month was the 3rd anniversary of kycnot.me! It's amazing that it's been 3 years since the first commit was made. I felt like it deserved a good update on the UI and UX. In the past 3 months, I've been working hard on a complete rewrite of the site. I wanted to give it a decent upgrade for the 3rd anniversary.

If you are interested in the details of the rewrite, take a look at the blog post I wrote. Here are the most important bits of this update:

  • New image / UI - I've designed a new logo and color palette for kycnot.me. I think it looks pretty cool and cypherpunk. I'm not a graphic designer, but I think I did a decent work and I put a lot of thinking on how to make it pleasant for the user!
  • Point system - The new point system provides more detailed information about the listings, and can be expanded to cover additional features across all services. Anyone can request a new point!
  • ToS Scrapper: I've implemented a powerful automated terms-of-service scrapper that collects all the ToS pages from the listings. It saves you from the hassle of reading the ToS by listing the lines that are suspiciously related to KYC/AML practices. This is still in development, and it will improve for sure, but it works pretty fine right now!
  • Search bar - The new search bar allows you to easily filter services. It performs a full-text search on the Title, Description, Category, and Tags of all the services. Looking for VPN services? Just search for "vpn"!
  • Transparency - To be more transparent, all discussions about services now take place publicly on GitLab. I won't be answering any e-mails (an auto-reply will prompt to write to the corresponding Gitlab issue). This ensures that all service-related matters are publicly accessible and recorded. Additionally, there's a real-time audits page that displays database changes.
  • Listing Requests - I have upgraded the request system. The new form allows you to directly request services or points without any extra steps. In the future, I plan to enable requests for specific changes to parts of the website, and even reporting issues with services.
  • Lightweight and fast - The new site is lighter and faster than its predecessor!

The new site and all the features that come with it are something I put a lot of hard work into. I'm happy it's finally coming out.

 

I'd like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).

I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along... I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it's holding me back a bit.

What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?
