There is a music player for #android called #boomingMusic.
Its UI looks to be very #accessible with a screen reader, the app focuses on high quality playback and rich features so I think it's worth following.

@ondrosik @NV Access Also there is Equalize editor that is a web app. It allows linear editing of math in various input modes including braille mode, qwerty mode, home row mode that allows entering braille on a computer keyboard. It works with screen readers to provide speech and braille, it can generate nemeth braille, mathml. For browsing mathml output screen reader support or mathjax in the browser can be used. As input it takes ascii math, latex, and mathml. It looks very robust.

The equalize editor is at lakepinesbraille.com/ee/

There is a little discrepancy with the #Foobar2000 mobile v2.26 beta that it display url encoded file names when browsing webdav shares that are not indexed into its media library. I am using it like this when playing my audio books / audio drama. If you are using Foobar 2000 mobile on android for playing media from webdav remotes, perhaps you can support my wish so this will be looked into at some point.

#marschine 07 They Flipped the Call, featuring @FreakyFwoof and @raywonder on the sample chop, which is a derivative of the Nokia ringtone. The iconic Nokia tune is based on a 19th-century guitar piece by Francisco Tárrega. Nokia licensed it in 1994, and it debuted on the Nokia 2110. By the late ‘90s, it was the world’s most-heard melody, ringing billions of times daily. Now it will ring in your head all day.

On thursday I managed to help a friend to update his #mikrotik #routerBoard G750 running ancient version of #routerOS from v3.29 to the latest Router OS version v7.20.8.
No hacking, no 3rd party software required. I had to do the upgrade in multiple steps for each major version upgrade seperate but still I am seeing this as a huge surprise.
I can run up to date software on par with todays security standards, even run services that were not available at the time of producing that device e.g. #wireguard. #tech #networking

For those using ReFX Nexus: Some presets which consist of drum loops (mostly hollywood percussion loops) don't play all loops. e. g. every single note should trigger one associated loop but there is just one single loop triggered by every note. ReFX staff reproduced it and it should be fixed soon. It is probably broken in last latest version, I can reproduce it after last update.

Perhaps you remember I am occassionally running #emacs on android with speechd-el and espeak-ng providing speech output. Up to now I was using termux for doing that.
Now I'm trying to get it to run on a pixel 9A with @GrapheneOS and the terminal app with #avf under the hood.

The thing is I'd like to get more up to date packages in that virtualized environment running on my phone. I'd prefer #ArchLinuxARM based image or #Debian testing. Upgrading it by following debian's instructions I am getting broken image. I have found there's nixos-avf however I can't find more.

Do you know if someone has succeeded building other images that might help me to get to my goal easier?

Dear friends, screen reader users, teachers and assistants.
I am trying to find out what tools can I use to create math content. I know #mathml is supported accross variety of screen readers and browsers but that seems to be only one side of the puzzle and that is reading.
How do I as a student collaborate on math content with my teacher and the other way round, how do I as a teacher create accessible math assigments for my student allowing them to complete it with a screen reader?

For this answer let's explore that both student and teacher are blind or visually disabled or teacher is sighted, student is blind. How to collaborate?

hmm. I think for Europe (I mostly know of US ones) you could try Telfon: mytelfon.com - interesting they use Twilio as the backend for VOIP, so you're kind of paying for two things in one. TextNow and a lot of the US ones don't really tell you the backend bits lol.

What a news" #liblouis our awesome #braille translator is being rewritten in @rustlang
The internal testing is now taking place but since this is an open-source project developed in public meaningfull testing is probably welcome by anyone who is happy to take their favorite braille tables for a spin with this new version.

Hello @Delta Chat and friends

I've written an article about your chat apps targetting #a11y and screen reader users in particular.
The article is written in slovak and it has just been published today at blind revue, an online magazine running by slovak blind and partially sighted union.

This weekend I discovered two AI related things:
1) GPT voice mode is really worse than text chat. It just tells you something which is not true at all. Same question asked via web really better results with sources. I am currently using gpt pro because thei give e one month of free access.
2) Google gemini can transcribe files. Just open gemini.google.com, throw the file and tell transcribe the file. Not sure how long files can Gemini handle.

I composed this melody long ago on my old Yamaha PSR 225 keyboard. I forgot that it even existed until Andre released this amazing addon.

Under normal circumstances, I would be at work this evening broadcasting an interview. But the guests canceled the show, so here I am playing around with NVDA Composer.
First, I created a basic melody in NVDA Composer – it’s a Slovak folk song. Then I imported it into Reaper, added some modern samples from Nexus, and this is the result.
You might ask why I didn’t do it directly in Reaper’s step sequencer. Because that wouldn’t be nearly as much fun. Hmm, seems that for some reason I can not upload mp3 dyrectly to this post, so here it is.
