Forewords My last article on voice cloning is more than a year ago, and here we are again for adopting some latest advancement. Refering to some Chinese source such as this blog and this video, I was attempting to adopt new tools for my audio book service, such as CosyVoice, F5-TTS, GPT-SoVITS, and fish-speech. But before we start, I recommend to: Install miniconda for dependency sanity wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh && sudo chmod +x Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh && bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh Setup PyTorch environment as needed and confirm with python -m torch.utils.collect_env ...

In the past, I have covered how to set up Ubuntu in WSL2 and hosting local LLMs with Harbor, now I want to migrate my Harbor instance from baremetal Linux into WSL2 so that I don’t have to set it up from scratch. First thing to do is to open firewall port netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=33811 listenaddress=0.0.0.0 connectport=33801 connectaddress=172.xx.xxx.xxx On Linux hardware: copy Harbor files from /home/username/Harbor /home/username/.ollama On Windows hardware: connect the USB drive containing Harbor files and run ...

This post is originally composed on 2024-11-28. I’m updating it for combining NextDNS, since I have started using a new freemium app with nasty ADs in it.

Thank to the original guide on reddit, the newly added part is in the end of this article. As a early adopter of Protonmail, I use their later coming VPN product as well, regularly yet lightly. Although I’m a potential customer but still not paying for any of their plan, for many reasons. ...

There are many reasons why I’m doing this. In the days when Virtual Machine was the thing, VMware Workstation was the go-to option for a Windows host to run VMs. We have to find cracked version for personal use, since there was no VirtualBox neither Hyper-V. Many years ago, when I first decided to have a proper homelab in my household, I went blindly into ESXi just because VMware Workstation has already installed on all of my computers. Although I was pretty like Proxmox during that time, it was considered for not so serious projects. ...

Last time, I mentioned Creating Ventoy VDI for Linux Live USB , however, it may not boot on some strange hardware and I unfortunately have quite a few of those. So in such cases, it’s better to boot Linux natively. By doing this, we need Rescuezilla/Clonezilla to extract the Linux system out of Virtualbox’s hard drive (VDI/VMDK). Download and load the ISO of Rescuezilla, a GUI version of Clonezilla, it’s larger but eaiser to use. ...
