  • Hate those posts only containing link… Feeling like I am looking at a news aggregator with click bait…

    For those feeling like me here a simple cut and paste :

    Sam is a very small Text-To-Speech (TTS) program written in Javascript, that runs on most popular platforms. It is an adaption to Javascript of the speech software SAM (Software Automatic Mouth) for the Commodore C64 published in the year 1982 by Don’t Ask Software (now SoftVoice, Inc.). It includes a Text-To-Phoneme converter called reciter and a Phoneme-To-Speech routine for the final output.








  • Compared to clicking a button I would say a lot faster as you don’t have to move your mouse to start initiating your gestures. It’s maybe more marginal compared to a short key. Still your hand is already on the mouse ready to execute a gesture. Personally I find it really convenient and for me it’s the second most useful add-on after ublock. When using a browser on other computers that don’t have these I find it really tedious and I am shocked at how much ad there is.
