I selfhost text-generation-webui (LLM's), mimic3 (TTS), and whisper (STT) on a pair of GPU's and tie them all together to make self-contained AI voice interactive chatbots and other nasty stuff.

Yeah they're pesky, but I appreciate the ingenuity. They've got custom scanning tools and reporting infrastructure on Discord, one day some of them will make bank away from grieving Minecraft servers heh.

Just make sure you whitelist your server, as there are "groups" out there that scan the entire internet for Minecraft servers running on default/common ports, and grief the shit out of whatever they can.
