Greetings Mac VO users. What are you all using to read PDF files? Preview is what I have been using, but it insists on every page being a group of things, and then any tables, lists, ETC become subgroups of things. There used to be a view where you could just have everything be on one page, and just be able to move through it like a document, but I think they've removed this? Is there anything other than preview that’s worth a look? Thanks for any feedback on this.
Would love to know as well. This is kinda weird but I just use Microsoft Edge to read PDF files lol.. It works pretty well actually, and you can even have them read using Microsoft's neural voices which is nice sometimes.
I was able to co-code another audio game with ChatGPT: introducing Arcane Audio Archer! I'm still working on difficulty shifts later on in gameplay, but it was fun coming up with all the sound effects, the styling and design, and the ballistics model, all while wrangling the AI to stay on target and fixing the output for overall #A11y and usability. Another project by the #blind for the blind! Go shoot some targets! marconius.com/fun/audioArcher/
The Linux Foundation today announced it's formed another foundation under its growing umbrella that extends well beyond the traditional 'Linux' landscape: the Agentic AI Foundation.
@TheEvilSkeleton Random Q, not sure if I should file this or not, but is Upscale intended to be able to compile for aarch64 or is that outside of scope of the project? Or is that something for after the backend rewrite? Builder is having problems on Fedora 43 aarch64 (vm on Apple silicon).
it's not out of scope, but I don't have any device to test with, and I have no idea how to compile the backend properly. The most I did was fork it, strip Windows and macOS support, and port to meson: gitlab.gnome.org/TheEvilSkelet…
I was thinking of reviving it but I don't know yet...
You're US? Do you know artists like #YasuShibata I once met a print of his at a show in London. Ann Aspinwall is also a real person. aspinwalleditions.com/artists
Premium prints using pigment-based archival inks (Giclee process) on high grade heavyweight art paper. Available as unframed or framed and ready to hang.
Früher zeigte das #NextCloud Symbol in der #ubuntu Desktop-Statusleiste vollflächig durch grün, gelb und rot an, wie der aktuelle Stand der Syncronisation ist.
Seit einiger Zeit wurde es durch das Logo ersetzt, welches eine Art mini winzigen Badge, wahrscheinlich ein grünes Häkchen trägt, wenn die Sync i.O ist.
Weird folks of Mastodon. I figured that if anybody would know, they'd likely be here.
Is there a website that, given a surname and PRL (passenger record locator, that 6-character code from your boarding pass), will give me access to the full PNR (passenger record) in its raw format, including any SSRs / notes that might have been put in?
I know that basically any travel agent can do this through their GDS, I know that there are sites that show this info in an "user-friendly" format, but an user-friendly format isn't what I want here.
"You have to file a GDPR data request for X and they'll give you the data" is also an acceptable answer btw.
ahhhh this is the evolution of the original FreeNAS which later was renamed to NAS4Free. I thought the screenshots looked familiar.
I don't know how long it will take them to spin a release on FreeBSD 15 but there are some great ZFS enhancements in there. I just can't justify running my NAS as an appliance like this. I prefer to run vanilla FreeBSD and have full control
all you need to get ahead in America these days is to call someone a racist slur on camera, lose your job, and then get $100k from other racists on the internet like some kind of weird game show
I find something profound in recursive descent parsing, both the idea of it and the coding of it. For me it's one of the more beautiful things in mathematics, let alone computing.
I'm going to admit that I am doing something immature in my #homelab and I'm looking for opinions. I've got multiple #XCPng hosts, all using local storage. I have no NFS or iSCSI storage. That's kinda silly. Shared storage is super useful and I'm literally not using it.
Unless I go to some serious effort to make a high-performance SAN, I expect network storage performance to be so-so for VM storage, but maybe I'm too pessimistic. I currently only have copper gigabit in the rack. No fiber, no 2.5G copper or anything like that. I'm not sure if that's going to be viable for NFS or iSCSI.
I could dedicate a host to running TrueNAS Core with a bunch of storage. But what has always bugged me about this is that my storage host becomes a single point of failure for all the compute nodes. #TrueNAS is super reliable but everything has to reboot once in a while, and these stupid enterprise-grade servers take anywhere from 4-8 minutes to boot. If I had a single storage node, and I needed to reboot it for an OS upgrade, everything would hang for a while. That's no good. Not updating the OS on the storage system is also not good.
So what am I supposed to be doing for shared storage on a #Xen cluster? How do I avoid a storage host becoming a single point of failure? How do you update and reboot a storage node, without disrupting everything that depends on it?
I keep thinking that flatpak portals are the poor man's version of ocaps that we need temporarily in order to Get It and then fully transition to them, but that's probably not the answer you are looking for.
Como siempre, me reservo una opinión cualificada a haber leído la sentencia (que todavía no lo he hecho). Pero si la están resumiendo bien, me parece un producto de muy baja calidad jurídica.
El Tribunal Supremo continúa dañando la credibilidad de la Justicia. La falta de pruebas le impide afirmar que el Fiscal General condenado sea el responsable del delito.

Got an email with the subject line "Say goodbye to holiday stress". I might be the only recipient of that email who, when I heard the subject line with my screen reader and got to the second syllable of "holiday", mentally autocompleted it to "Say Goodbye to Hollywood", the title of the opening track on Billy Joel's _Turnstiles_ album.
On day 10 @SteveFaulkner revisits the 1st rule of ARIA, which he originally formulated, and there's also something about beavers…I think. #HTMHellAdventcalendar

If having to start all over is what’s stopping you from leaving behind Spotify’s hate and war profiteering (not to mention the lowest artist payouts) I just transferred all of my favorites over to a new platform in just under four minutes with this. tunemymusic.com
Transfer Playlists From Any Music Platform to Any Other Music Platform! Including Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, YouTube, Google Play Music, TIDAL and more!
Part of the reason why prices kept going up is because certain corporations are using #AI to figure out how much to jack up grocery prices. They are able to charge customers different prices for the same items. If they can afford to use AI like that, they can afford to pay workers a living wage. Join your local union today. #1u
L’ex-ministre de l’Environnement Steven Guilbeault juge sévèrement l’entente sur l’énergie récemment conclue entre son patron, Mark Carney, et la première ministre de l’Alberta, Danielle Smith.
Ich liege derzeit darnieder mit einer Hodenentzündung, wohl als Folge einer Blasenentzündung. Ich kann euch sagen, die Schmerzen sind so heftig, da wünscht man sich eher eine Wurzelkanalbehandlung. Aufstehen derzeit nicht möglich, da kleinste Bewegungen des Hodens krass schmerzen. Ja, trotz Schmerztabletten hochlagern und kühlen. Nur wenn ich absolut ruhig liege ist es einigermaßen erträglich.
Autsch! Ich wünsche schnelle gute Besserung! Ein Tipp, frag Deinen Arzt oder Apotheke mal nach einen Suspensorium. Das verhindert, dass der Hodensack runterhängt, wenn Du aufstehst, und schränkt dessen Beweglichkeit ein. Hatte ich damals nach der Vasektomie für ein paar Tage und hat da zumindest geholfen. Vielleicht wäre das bei Dir ja auch eine Möglichkeit, die Schmerzen beim Aufstehen zu mildern?
Update: Schmerzen sind nun deutlich besser, nachdem am Freitag die Antiobiotika-Therapie umgestellt worden ist. Die Schwellung ist aber noch sehr ausgeprägt. Deswegen liege ich auch noch die meiste Zeit - aufstehen und laufen ist ein echtes Problem, wenn da unten gefühlt mehrere Kilo hängen.
Update 23.12.: Heute Kontrolle beim Arzt. Nur noch wenig Schmerzen, die mit Ibuprofen gut beherrschbar sind. Kein Fieber mehr. Aber die Schwellung ist immer noch massiv. Es könnte noch Wochen oder gar Monate dauern, bis diese zurückgeht.
Der Mensch gewöhnt sich an fast alles , und so kann ich normalen Alltagsaktivitäten wieder nachgehen, wenn auch eingeschränkt. Muss nur auf die richtige Tragetechnik achten und es nicht übertreiben.
Auch von mir weiter gute Besserung! Und schön vorsichtig sein, nicht dass durch die andere Tragetechnik andere Bereiche des Körpers falsch belastet werden.
This is cool, wonder if that new UI came with any accessibility for screen reader users? NI just updated Kontakt with some accessibility improvements, but I haven't yet given it a try to see how much can be done.
It's coming! I think I can say that. It didn't make the cut for this release, but it is enabled by the new UI framework and sounds like it's at the top of the list for the next one. Separately from Absynth I've been back and forth with the accessibility lead over at NI.
Amazing, thanks so much. I've been looking at your stuff for a while and had no idea you were even on Mastodon lol. Really happy to see NI start becoming more active in accessibility again, about to grab the latest Kontakt player. Thanks for everything you do man really appreciate it.
If you are a fan of games like Rhythm Heaven, then you are going to love Bits and Bops. This mainstream game has accessibility features to make sure no blind and visually impaired players are left behind. I was lucky enough to be able to have been given a pre-release copy, and I'll be Streaming it this evening on YouTube at 7 PM Eastern/0:00 UTC . I'd love it if you could join me for what promises to be a lot of fun. If you enjoy this video, then you'll certainly want to check out my Youtube channel for more great videos about some fantastic accessible games. youtube.com/live/CWI5HLgnMxU?f…

@johann I will probably get to it over the weekend. I played it a long time ago, but didn't care for it much. Now that the full version is here, I want to spend more time with it.
Is this (or any other game you know of) multiplayer? I've been playing MUDs, but admittedly, the same very small crowd is getting very, very old. I just don't know what else is out there.
