Android Accessibility Progress Report: What’s Changed (and What Hasn’t) Since Spring 2024 accessibleandroid.com/android-… #Android #A11y #AI
in reply to Accessible Android

So they did not mention it but a ton of the google apps have actions now, I keep finding them without a hint they are there. Also not sure why you have issues with it speaking over voice recording, that stopped for me ages ago, like #TalkBack 12.1 ages ago, though this does seem to break with third party tts engines, also the #braille support if you did not know is currently on #Humanware to push a firmware update because even if the HID bluetooth had been released those devices would not work, so people need to pester Humanware about that. Also as of the last month or two Lookout appears as an accessibility app and can be mapped to a shortcut.
in reply to D.Hamlin.Music

@dhamlinmusic A tun? Please mention a few of them. And TalkBack keeps interfering with voice messages in most apps regardless of the TTS used, namely in WhatsApp.


Every day I get a comment asking me why I pronounce "GNOME" with a hard G.

It's because when I first learned about it, over one century ago, it was an acronym for "GNU Network Object Model Environment". And the GNU project pronounces GNU with a hard G.

Pronouncing GNOME with a hard G was useful as a way to distinguish the project from the mythical creature, and I was not alone in pronouncing it that way.

Over time the acronym fell away but my pronunciation stuck.

#Linux #GNOME

we never got Miguel to record himself pronouncing GNOME, like Linus did for Linux back in the day…

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency confirmed that they found two cases of avian influenza at a poultry farm in the les Maskoutain region and Saint-Jean sur Richelieu in Quebec on Sunday.

Danke.

Wer als Journalist oder Öffentlichkeitsarbeiter einer Organisation Microblogging kommerziell betreibt, mag ja bei Bluesky wirtschaftliche Chancen sehen.

Wer im gemeinnützigen Auftrag unterwegs ist und auch bei digitalen Dienstleistungen auf die Auswahl seiner Geschäftspartner achtet, dürfte sich schwer tun, sich mit der Bluesky PBLLC auf die Sicherstellung der grundlegenden Spielregeln zu einigen.

Oder gibt es andere BS Instanzen?

Soweit ich mitbekommen habe, ist bisher keine weitere Instanz bekannt. Es hat jemand den Betrieb einer Instanz geprüft und kommt zu dem Schluss, dass bei der Softwarearchitektur dermaßen hohe Serverkapazitäten nötig sind, dass ein föderales System, wie es mit ActivityPup möglich ist, wohl in absehbarer Zeit nicht zu erwarten ist.

Speaking of bread, I spent a lot of time thinking about why I simply don’t like the breads that many people like. I’ve come to a few conclusions:

1. Soft bread isn’t always terrible outside the U.S.
2. Since I eat a mainly East and SE Asian diet, wheat just isn’t a primary grain
3. Between noodles and rice dishes, there is realistically only space for crusty spreads sometimes (when I cook other cuisines)
4. The main cuisine I cook outside of those is Mediterranean so soft flatbreads work too

in reply to modulux

@modulux sometimes Europeans go to East Asia and complain about our soft breads. But they don’t see that those breads are our ‘fun snacks’ between meals. We almost never eat bread as a main meal

That view also completely discounts how Japanese, Korean, Chinese baking is totally its own thing and plays a different social role. It’s a luxury not an essential

in reply to Adrianna Tan

Yep, I've noticed people are introducing bao style breads here in Spain, and people are sometimes a little... confused by it. I think it's good in its own terms so long as one isn't expecting the sort of crunchy buns we eat here.

This year @igalia has contributed in a number of ways to encourage discussions and efforts aimed at improving the Linux display stack.

In the first half of the year, we hosted the 2024 Linux Display Next Hackfest, and in the second half, with a gathering of developers at XDC 2024, I co-organized the Display/KMS Meeting.

This blog post details what we discussed during those 3 hours together:

I think my paper on Dummett, proof assistants and pluralism has shaped up rather nicely, and it will be good to see it out in the Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society in a few months’ time. You can read the preprint now.

Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on earlier drafts, and discussed these issues along the way.

There's more to be done, but I hope to have clarified some issues around how we can think about the relationship between constructive and classical reasoning, and how philosophers might engage with what is going on in the application of dependent type theory in proof assistants, programming language design, and the formalisation and mechanisation of reasoning.

Should #Conversations_im add stun.conversations.im as a fallback for #XMPP servers missing XEP-0215: External Service Discovery?

I’ve hesitated to add anything resembling "calling home" (no update checker, no metrics).

However, the main goal here wouldn’t be improving A/V call success (though it helps) but making P2P file transfers more reliable. Many servers still lack HTTP Upload, and the refactored Jingle File Transfer would benefit greatly from a fallback STUN server.

in reply to Daniel Gultsch

yes, those who don't care will have ability to make calls, those who care will spend some effort to spin off and publish own service.
in reply to Daniel Gultsch

If it can be deactivated in the configuration, then I don't see an issue with that. I would appreciate a warning though somewhere, maybe just a Message Toast on both sides that the fallback is used. That would help notice wrong configurations.

It would be great if conversations could verify that stun/turn works completely in addition to that. (Might also be a separate tool).

It has been one busy day in volunteering, but still time to think about things I want to do next year. Starting a blog is definitely one of them. Just to share my experiences in various situations and to let people know they are not alone, even though they may feel it. Also, time to give my little abode a good clear out!

Aww. that is nice. Good luck with cleaning, and I hope the blog becomes a thing. :)


Fellow Whovians, I'd like some recommendations for some #BigFinish audios that are 'happy'. Something like The Great Sontaran War or The Veiled Leopard. Something that doesn't have deep issues or lots of dreariness. I wanna get back into the audios but *waves around at everything* the dark stuff isn't really for me right now.
