According to an article by the Chrome team, Chromium only makes adjustments to the last four lines of a paragraph. It’s focused on preventing short last lines. It also adjusts hyphenation if consecutive hyphenated lines appear at the end of a paragraph."<p>The article goes on to talk about how it's up to the browser (and not necessarily permanent) about how to handle the setting, and furthermore a new 
value was agreed upon to do what Chromium was doing, called "text-wrap: avoid-short-last-lines".<p>Here's the article on what the Chromium version does:

<p>Very nice, works well.<p>It seems you put some menu items behind what I'll call "[space] mode," where you you have to press the spacebar first to open the command menu, then use the command.<p>This is not reflected properly in the help text shown when you press ? and that was a source of confusion for me.<p>Especially since I managed to activate the fullscreen mode for one pane AND turn it off, but then couldn't figure out how I did it; and also, I did not find the space-Q option to Quit at first.)<p>Edit to add, I prefer installing with pipx.<p>These commands worked for me, to get Postgresql and MariaDB database plugins:<p><pre><code>  pipx install sqlit-tui
  cd ~/.local/pipx/venvs/sqlit-tui
  source bin/activate
  bin/python3 -m pip install psycopg2
  sudo apt-get install -y libmariadb-dev  # On Debian
  bin/python3 -m pip install mariadb
</code></pre>
I didn't try installing system-wide as per the GitHub instructions, I don't know if that would have worked just as well with pipx or not.</p>

<p>No, you didn't. This doesn't match the original text.<p>0:47 Added in text: "Okay, here's the text prepared for reading aloud."<p>0:58<p>Original: "Okay, yes, it's a dumb idea,"<p>Audio: "Okay, yes, it's a bit of a strange idea"<p>1:08<p>Original: "Or do you, say, list off to the left some? What I want to ask you is: Can you find out? Hell no. You can see that, sure."<p>Audio: "Or do you drift off to the left a bit? The question is, can you figure it out? No, you can't. You can see that."<p>---<p>It appears you are using "Variational Lossy Autoencoder (VLAE)" as the basis for your website[1], which might be good for simplifying more complex things but defeats the purpose here. It's using more than four letters in words, and censoring out "dumb" and "hell"?<p>Why don't you try pointing that another explanation of the theory of relativity without this limitation? Seems like that'd be a more interesting exercise.<p>[1a] <a href="https://www.pdftomp3.com/shared/67e178f428779824db2e06c6" rel="nofollow">https://www.pdftomp3.com/shared/67e178f428779824db2e06c6</a>

<p>I believe that the intention was to say "No ability to save progress _between sessions_" in the original program, whereas the C++ implementation saves to text files.<p>Another portion of the article says more explicitly:<p><pre><code>  Limitations:
    Maximum number of nodes: 200.
    The structure is stored only in memory (no disk saving).</code></pre></p>
