@zoufalec Můžeš jezdit i bez aplikace, jen ti pak trenažér automaticky neupravuje zátěž podle profilu trati. Já mám tenhle: cyklotrenazery.heureka.cz/tacx…
Aplikaci vyloženě nepotřebuješ, ale vydržet na tom třeba 90 minut a čumět jen do zdi chce hodně silnou hlavu 😀😀
Já mám na kole pedály s wattmetrem, takže se připojují k aplikacím – jinak bych se na to upřímně vysral.
Zase to mám jen přes zimu. Jsou borci, co na tom jezdí celoročně.
Ono je to stejný jako když si někdo koupí domů běžecký pás – po měsíci je z toho pěkný věšák na ručníky. 😄@mireeek

If you as a college professor:
* never check or respond to emails,
* Only grade twice a semester,
* Spend at least a quarter of every class talking about how wonderful you are,
* Don't allow makeup work,
* Make us come in on Veterans day when you yourself are out,
* etc.
maybe you should not be a fucking professor. SO glad this is my last week.

Finally setting up my Kopia backup structure to my Storage box and external drive as my 2TB Google Drive I just synced everything unencrypted for now is going to expire in 2 days. Was about time lol.
Zen Browser is a free, open source browser based on Firefox, designed for a calmer internet experience by removing Firefox's "bad bits." It has zero telemetry. It comes with more "hardened" privacy settings out of the box, whereas Firefox requires you to dive into the settings to achieve the same level of protection and zero Ads etc. this is what Firefox should have been. Anyway, I shared information. Now it is up to you 😉 zen-browser.app
I've been a very happy user of Bitwarden for several years but recently, I've begun noticing an a11y issue that's really inconvenient. I'm using JAWS and the Chrome Browser. I bring up the Bitwarden extension and press New to create a new item. Focus lands on the Folder item type, and I can't select any other item type by using the arrow keys. Anyone else seeing this? @bitwarden
What an absolutely weird feeling, not being stressed out about stuff. It won't last, so I'll enjoy it for a minute.

I'm thankful for #Be My Eyes. I am going through holiday cards and reading the little messages that are often handwritten, even in cursive. It is a joy to have the app read them to me. Even if they're not private messages, it's still wonderful to think that this option exists, especially when cited assistance is not immediately around the corner. Thank you so much, Be My Eyes!

I'm stumbling my way through GNOME and Orca. This is most definitely not the windows desktop. I'm digging the whole minimal thing though
I seem to have picked up a few follows by talking about how much the music industry sucks, and I'm guessing that means that at least some of you would be interested in alternative methods of finding & hearing cool stuff:
@TIBtv - brand-new independent live stream of indie music videos and animation
@indiebeat - kinda the same as above, but radio
@audiointerface - moar awesome radio
@etherdiver - does a weekly review thing called Other People's Music, also makes cool music

So, apparently, more azure voices are getting added to the neural voices addon, voices that are not available in narrator or the store. This makes me wonder, are people retraining azure voices to add more?
is there a newer version of it? For me the lag is still not low enough to be a daily usable synthesizer, but I see a lot of promise in this. I don't think you can train your own public voice, perhaps to enterprises that's offered but that would mean sharing a private API key which I don't see happening either. So SMH.
Soon we'll start seeing posts of all the things people are proud of accomplishing in 2025, and what they're hoping to do in 2026.
I'm here to tell you, if all you did was survive 2025, that's an accomplishment worth celebrating. Life is hard, and getting through a year is tough. I'm proud of you.

I wish we could distribute our own iOS apps. I absolutely hate waiting on Apple to decide if my app is good enough for them or not
Test test. Is this thing on?
I can't wait to share with you my next project. Just gotta get through test flight app review first...
My next project or mission is to look into whether we can remove silences from speech ourselves somehow, if the engine doesn't provide a pauses setting itself. Since we get the direct audio stream, it may be possible but anything would need to carefully be assessed in performance penalty and whether it causes audio overlaps if the work isn't done right. For now at least V1.1 is a lot more stable and performant wrapper.

Updated: FlexVoice 1.1. the native wrapper was doing redundant normalization work (literally normalizing twice), which can add extra stalls between chunks. Do not sync() inside _runWrapperTextSegment(). If we still want “accurate doneSpeaking” for non-indexed one-shot speech, only sync() once at the end of the utterance. Remove the second normalization in workerLoop and just move the already-normalized string into the prepared list. Also a small micro-opt: normalizeFragileTokens was scanning alpha tokens twice (once to find token end, again to detect ALL-CAPS). I changed it to detect “allCaps” during the first scan.

Interesting. unfortuantely, i don't know if I can use this as a daily driver at the minute, because it refuses to read most mastodon posts, which I see as a problem. however, I know this is actively being worked on, so I will get it time. It also skips a few words. Hopefully these issues will be fixed soon, however, I'm not too sure about a daily driver as of right now, as again, some things it refuses to read.
@mckensie that's so odd, since it's reading everything for me here. But I also have my system locale set to Hungary, which means some unicode characters get interpreted a bit different. So far scrolling through my timeline with posts that have emojis and such, it all reads. So I just haven't been able to repro it at all
I wonder what I should do to fix this issue. Restarting NVDA didn't fix it. I'm wondering if running NVDA as admin or perhaps even restarting might do it? I don't know
@mckensie @mcourcel well it's been some people who get it with Masto posts, whereas others don't. for sure one of those illusive bugs. but if you can do a "view post" on the ones that don't read, then perhaps it's possible to find where it falls silent, like which sentence or set of words it stops reading at. Once we have a text piece that does that it's a lot easier to make a new rule inside the normalizer against it and patch.
