Speech to Text - offline support

We are looking for a google supported language model that helps in Speech-to-Text recognition for Xamarin MAUI/.NET Style mobile application, which targets both Android and iOS platforms. One of our critical requirements is to ensure this functionality is available in offline mode, as many of our applications cater to offline scenarios.Additionally, our application aims to support a variety of international languages, including English, Russian, Chinese, Portuguese, around 45 languages. Therefore, we are seeking a solution that offers multilingual support, preferably supporting different accents as well.
We would also like to know if google offers any customize services to support the requirements stated above.

LastPass Data Breach

The_Chief
EPILOGUE:

I received an email this morning, informing me of our automatic renewal with LastPass families. I could have sworn I turned off auto-renew... but I logged in (for the first time in nearly a year) to find that it was set to auto-renew. No problem... I responded by turning off auto-renew and then DELETING the account. Of course, I was prompted to tell LastPass why I was leaving them - and I didn't hold back. I let them have it, telling them about their slow response to the breech; the cavalier attitude toward security; and that the company could shut down forever and the only people who would miss it are hackers and scammers.

Then after a half-dozen warnings of "this cannot be reversed!" and "once you delete, your data is lost forever! Are you really, really sure you want to do this???", I finally got to the for-real, for-keeps, forever deletion button and dispatched LastPass with majestic heavenly force.

GOOD RIDDANCE!

Has anyone successfully activated an eSIM?

nickdalzell
Still not nearly as convenient as popping a SIM out of a broken phone and popping it into a backup and going about my day in an instant. Now I would have to phone terrible Indian support and coax them through a process that takes ten times longer and is ten times more frustrating.

is that the point of everything 'modern' now? to make the process more frustrating? We seemed to have gone past the era of a newer thing being better than the older thing ages ago. Now it's just change for change's sake.

Also I am really despising QR codes. everywhere. they're like flies, just as ubiquitous. wouldn't be surprised to find a teeny one on a fly one day. really Black Mirror like and creepy. as if we need more reasons to be addicted to our phones than we already are.

I still hope someone sets off an EMP and we get a legit great reset--back to the '50s. let people talk face to face again, be a community again instead of everyone being buried into a screen everywhere like zombies, unable to think without pulling it out and Googling it.

I just want to live in a real-life Mayberry. not a future dystopia. Heaven forbid that I photograph a deer one day at a sanctuary and end up having some info about deer show up, if that happens I wouldn't know if the animal were even real or some AI robot. just euthanize me should that ever become a thing.

Using Android with apple CarPlay

Hi all
I have recently just bought a 2019 BMW new car and it only supports Apple CarPlay, is there a way I can use my android instead without having to pay a 3rd party company to basically take my whole dash apart to fit a new system?
Click to expand...

If your 2019 BMW only supports Apple CarPlay but you'd like to use Android, several options can help without extensive dash modifications.

First, check for manufacturer-provided software updates for Android Auto compatibility. If none are available, consider wireless dongles that can add Android Auto support, plugging into your car's USB port.
Some apps can mirror your Android phone's screen on your car display.
However, for a more comprehensive solution, you might explore aftermarket head units that support both CarPlay and Android Auto, but this involves professional installation. Research compatibility and choose an option that best suits your needs.

Alternatives for Samsung Calendar

why not just get microsoft 360? you can then use outlook and it should sync pretty easily.

and are you using outlook for personal use? or is outlook hooked up to your work?
Click to expand...

I am using Office 365 (subscription).
Started with Office 97 at the time, I believe in 1999 and (believe it, or not...) generally I am quite satisfied with the Microsoft products.
It is not just the product, but also the support. For example, when posting a question on the Google product forum, I usually delete the question after a few days: no response. That is not the case with Microsoft products.

Mouse for games - fails to work in some

S
I plugged a USB corded mouse into an OTG adapter into my Android's USB. It works fine in the OS, in the game Merge Mansion, and in the shopping app AliExpress. But the two games within the AliExpress app, the mouse is ignored. Is there a way games can access the touchscreen input directly so they don't see a USB mouse? Can this be corrected somehow? Would a bluetooth mouse work better?

I tried the emulator Octopus (an Android app which makes the mouse behave as the touchscreen in the game), but Aliexpress closes quickly within it, just as it closes quickly within Bluestacks on the PC, it seems to hate being fiddled with.

Pirate's Boom Boom (Arcade+RPG Shooter) coming Sept 1st, 2023

B
Hi Everyone,
We have gotten great reception of our game, but we've also listened to the shortcomings. We are dedicated to making Pirate's Boom Boom one of the best gaming experiences and have implemented these changes:
- ADs during Arcade Mode gameplay are gone!
- Penalties during Arcade Mode gameplay are gone!
- "The Heinz" artifact now does +3dmg, used to be +2. This should help with the bottleneck difficulty during levels 77-80.
We are also working hard on the StoryMode, coming very soon!
For now v1.53 is available for download.

How to copy lat/long in Google Map

rosiestorey
vpelton said:
In Google Maps on my Android, I know when I click on a place on the map, it shows lat/long in the search bar. But how do I COPY the lat/long?

All the forums I have read seem to have old info. They say to click on the lat/long values to copy. But when I click on the lat/long (that is now in the search bar), it changes to the address. Some of the old info also says to swipe up to see more data but again, that area now shows the address, not the lat/long.
Click to expand...
When it displays latitude and longitude in the search bar, simply click on them and hold for a moment. The text will be highlighted, and two menu buttons, 'cut' and 'copy,' will appear.

aiuto! ho scaricato un qualsiasi firmware per samsung galaxy ace style (il firmware che ho scaricato è "SM-G310HNXXU0ANI2") con odin e forse anche in modo sbagliato e quando l'operazione è finita il telefono si è riavviato in bootloop (in questo momento il firmware che sta sul telefono è sempre lo stesso "SM-G310HNXXU0ANI2") e ora sto provando a scaricare il firmware più recente per quel dispositivo sempre con odin soltanto che finita l'operazione odin dice pass (l'operazione è andata a buon fine) (il nuovo firmware che ho scaricato è il più recente "SM-G310HNXXU0APA1") ma dopo il telefono continua a riavviarsi in bootloop allora mando il dispositivo in modalità recovery mode e lì sopra c'è scritto che il firmware è rimasto sempre quello di prima (il firmware è quello di prima "SM-G310HNXXU0ANI2"). come dovrei fare ora? aiuto!

Here's the best I could get. Good luck :)
help! I downloaded any firmware for Samsung Galaxy Ace Style (the firmware I downloaded is "SM-G310HNXXU0ANI2") with Odin and maybe even in the wrong way and when the operation was finished the phone restarted in bootloop (at this moment the firmware that is on the phone is still the same "SM-G310HNXXU0ANI2") and now I'm trying to download the latest firmware for that device again with odin only that once the operation is over odin says pass (the operation was successful) (the new firmware I downloaded is the most recent "SM-G310HNXXU0APA1") but after that the phone continues to restart in bootloop so I send the device into recovery mode and above it says that the firmware has always remained the same as before (the firmware is the previous one "SM-G310HNXXU0ANI2"). what should I do now? help!

Accessing learned words in Samsung Galaxy keyboard

Rob
It seems like you're either suspecting them of cheating or jealously noticed the usernames of people they've searched on a social platform like Instagram. Does that sound about right?

My advice is that finding where this data may or may not be stored is not the solution. The solution is having a partner you trust and engaging in good communication in the toughest of times.

If there's something that concerns you, raise this issue gently with your partner. Give them the opportunity to explain before you go snooping down a path that will cause more problems. Or maybe your concerns will sound crazy if broached aloud, in which case, maybe you're overreacting, reading into things that aren't there, and need to calm your nerves- go for a walk, meditate, listen to some music, etc...

It's likely that this data was cached and the search history or app data has since been cleared. If that's the case, it won't be long before it's populated again- people are creatures of habit. You'll likely have the chance to "snoop" in the future if the situation is dire... but it seems like you're looking for something that you don't actually want to find. That's an endless search that only turns up two things: emptiness or heartbreak.
