Yes! I'm currently using https://espeak.sourceforge.net/, so it isn't especially fun to listen to though. Additionally, since I'm streaming the LLM response, it won't take long to get your reply. Since it does it a chunk at a time, there's occasionally only parts of words that are said momentarily. Also of course depends on what model you use or what the context size is for how long you need to wait. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

You might try espeak or - for something that looks more feature-rich - festival. Source: over 1 year ago

Hey! I’m mute too and I’ve been wanting to stream. So far I’ve decided on using eSpeak https://espeak.sourceforge.net/, a text-to-speech app for PC that allows commercial usage. You might also be able to find online text-to-speech that allows commercial usage, it just might take awhile to find.

You can check the cycle count using the System Report app in the power section. Alt click on the Apple logo is a convenient shortcut to open System Report. There is also the third-party Coconut Battery app that gives you other nice statistics and keeps track of battery health if you open it occasionally. https://coconut-flavour.com/coconutbattery/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

As for the battery not lasting 12 hours in sleep mode (I assume you mean sleep...) it's most likely doing some indexing in the background and will be okay soon. You can check the battery heath using Coconut Battery: http://coconut-flavour.com/coconutbattery/. Source: over 1 year ago

You can check the cycles count with Coconut Battery for Mac or iCopyBot for Windows. Source: over 1 year ago

You can’t really tell anything from that screenshot. I’d ask the seller to use a shortcut like PowerUtil to check the battery health and cycles (alternatively, you could use coconutBattery on a Mac or iMazing on a Windows PC. Source: over 1 year ago

Possibly battery (use Coconut Battery to check battery capacity). Source: over 1 year ago
