Největší IT kalamita za posledních deset let má překvapivý důvod: antimonopolní regulaci

GNOME Calendar users, rejoice!

After 7 months of pain and suffering, we finally reworked the event details popover, which will be available in GNOME 47!

The new event details popover builds on top of the existing UI/code, while adding a few improvements and behavioral changes:

  • The popover displays the changes-prevent (lock) icon when the event is read-only.
  • Each section is properly separated with separators, with equal amount of margins.
  • Location and Meetings section are mutually exclusive; only one is shown.
  • When an event has no event note, the popover will always explicitly display that there's no event description.
  • The action button adapts its icon and tooltip text depending on the event permission.

gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c…

#GNOME #GNOMECalendar #GTK #libadwaita #GTK4

Event viewer popover with a long title and description, accompanied with a 'lock' and 'info' button. The title and description are separated by a separator.
Event editor popover with "test" as the title with a placeholder description written "No event notes", with a 'edit' button.
Event viewer with "test" as the title and long description and a location link, with a 'edit' button.

This post was a bit surprising: Mozilla's ad tracking feature is part of an "origin trial", which means the new API is only exposed to websites on an allow list. Currently that list is empty, so the it doesn't do anything even if you've left the feature enabled.

They generated all that bad publicity, and the feature isn't even collecting any data yet.

A screenshot of a Reddit comment by user "bholley_mozilla", who is identified as a Mozilla employee. The text of the comment reads: "Because it needs to run at scale to provide actionable feedback on the design. Keep in mind this is an Origin Trial. I don't think we actually have any tests sites enrolled right now so it's not actually exposed anywhere, and will eventually be exposed at most to a handful of sites."

I'm a big fan of LibreElec, have a RPi4 running it for my TV. But it's very much Kodi and no other apps. Nothing for viewing PDFs, no browser, no messaging, just Kodi. Which is generally fine! But this hack-a-TV can do all of those other things, and has more CPU grunt for it.

I'm glad to share with you this early sample of my new neural TTS model OptiSpeech.
The model is end-to-end, and this variant is based on ConvNeXtTTS architecture.
Noticeably, the model is trained using 24KHz sampling rate, while being very performant.
Thanks for Pneuma Solutions for providing access to the hardware I'm using to train the model.

How does it handle punctuation differences? My biggest pet peeve with virtually all synths apart from Espeak and Eloquence is that a comma, period, exclamation point, semicolon, two dashes etc. all sound the same! Same amount of pause and same voice inflection. With eSpeak, for example, the voice will pitch up and sound more excited if the sentence ends with an exclamation point. Is that something LLM’s can do?

It's one of my biggest issues too. And it's one of the things I'm trying to address through this effort.
It largely depends on the model's design, given you have a good dataset.
With large models, it is almost a solved issue, but with compact models it is a challenge.
Large models have grater capacity to learn sentence-level as well as character-level prosody.

Immer wieder findet man private Aufrufe zur Suche von vermissten oder gesuchten Personen. Warum es keine Gute Idee ist, diese zu teilen, haben wir hier für euch zusammengestellt.

#sicherimnetz #vermisstenmeldungen #fahndungsaufruf #blaulicht #medienkompetenz

Fahndungsaufrufe im Netz Gesuchte Personen haben Rechte! Bei jeder öffentlichen Fahndung, egal ob vermisste Personen oder Straftäter*innen, greift das allgemeine Persönlichkeitsrecht (Art. 2 Abs. 1 i.V.m. Art. 1 Abs. 1 GG). Dies umfasst auch das Recht am eigenen Bild, an persönlichen Daten und der Privatsphäre. Steht der Aufruf im Presseportal der Polizei? Nur Strafverfolgungsbehörden dürfen dieses außer Kraft setzen und nach Personen öffentlich fahnden. Nicht selbst strafbar machen! Teilt man ein Bild einer vermissten Person ohne deren Einverständnis, kann diese Regressforderungen stellen und man erfüllt u.U. selbst Straftatbestände, wenn z.B. private Daten der Person geteilt wurden. Besonderer Schutz für Kinder und Jugendliche Niemand kennt die Hintergründe eines privaten Aufrufs. Handelt es sich z.B. um einen Sorgerechtsstreit? Nur die Polizei kann daher entscheiden, wann der Nutzen einer öffentlichen Fahndung gegenüber den Nachteilen und Risiken überwiegt. Im Extremfall behindert man ggf. sogar die Suche, indem Täter*innen durch den Aufruf gewarnt werden. Das Internet vergisst nichts! Ist der Aufruf wirklich authentisch? Ist er aktuell? Ist die Person überhaupt (noch) vermisst? Vor allem, teile keine Screenshots von Suchmeldungen, sondern immer die Meldung selbst!

Was noch fehlt: Solche privaten Suchmeldungen werden teils auch von Tätern selbst erstellt, um eine Person ausfindig zu machen, die sich vor ihnen versteckt. Zb. weil sie aus einer gewalttätigen Beziehung geflohen sind. In so einem Fall bringt man die gesuchte Petson in grosse Gefahr.

Per this episode: Dogs Can Smell Your Stress and Make Choices Based on It - New research seems to support the notion that dogs can read a person's mood via their scent. Dogs involved in an experiment appeared to have their own moods changed by the human sweat/breath odors presented to them. This "contagious emotion" then appeared to inform choices and actions made by the dog. dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ar…

Researchers from the University of Bristol have discovered that dogs really can tell when you are stressed and are even put in a bad mood by the smell of worried humans.

Something you may not have realised is right-handed: playing cards.

When you pick up a card with your dominant hand and add it to the front of a card you're holding in your non-dominant hand, you create a fan towards your dominant hand.

Standard playing cards have a small version of the number and suit in two corners so that you can see them no matter which way up the card is, *as long as they're fanned right*, and many modern card games follow suit (ha!) without thinking, for the convention or aesthetic

Consider mirroring important summary information in both left and right corners (Ticket to Ride does a great job putting the suits in both corners while maintaining the pleasant asymmetrical feel of having them in one)

It's admittedly only a tiny accessibility issue, but it IS an accessibility issue, so have think about it.

#GameDev #Accessibility #a11y #TableTop #CardGames #BoardGames

Standard playing cards
Cards from LOOT. In addition to the summaries only being in the left corner, they rely on colour-vision to distinguish them, (despite the MAIN image having different symbols!)
Cards from Love Letter, with the number shown only on the left.
Cards from Ticket to Ride, with symbols in all four corners (colourblind friendly, too, although the carriage pieces in the same game are a problem)
