This is my favorite coconut water product. Just coconut water and coconut flesh, frozen in a bag. The next best thing is getting a young coconut on a Thai beach.

Keeps me going, what with all the terrible coconut water products here

On an especially hot day, taking this out of the freezer = having coconut ice slushy instead of water, which is also excellent

As someone very familiar with government IT (but not with DOE specifically), my hypothesis is that their developers have to create a record of every piece of software they use. And the system where they enter those records requires a vendor contact email address. And someone, lacking a better email address in their rush to fill out the form, found your email address and used it, not understanding the implications.

Esta noticia es increíble. Una mujer come en un restaurante de Disney y, después de preguntar y pedir repetidas veces si la comida no tenía ciertos alimentos a los que era alérgica, y de ser asegurada, repetidamente que no los llevaba, muere por una reacción alérgica a la comida.

El marido denuncia al restaurante por negligencia y ahora Disney quiere desestimar la denuncia porque la mujer una vez se apuntó a una prueba gratuita de un mes de Disney+, y entre los T&C aceptas uno que dice que cualquier disputa que tengas con la empresa deber resolverse con ella (y no a través de los tribunales).

@matrix I know you worked on encryption and key exchange in the latest iterations, but you made it worse.

That is freaking not usable. A new contact added by ID in 1to1 chat, "Never send encrypted messages to unverified sessions.." not activated. Just a brand new contact.

Not working at all. Trying to get users to #Matrix like that won't work.

It's not only old-style looking, heavy and non-intuitive, it's just not working at all.

in reply to Tobi

We're sorry to see that, and appreciate you reaching out! We agree the user experience around E2EE needs to be improved and presents a barrier to adoption.

It is our understanding that the client and server developers recognize the issue and are working on it.

in reply to The Matrix.org Foundation

as written below, E2E encryption works in a room with the two participants, yet not in a 1:1 chat. Selecting "room" resolves the issue. Yet that's not a thing to make a first user understand or making her/him trying per se.

We announced that we are sunsetting unauthenticated media access on matrix.org just 2 months ago, and already 60% of requests are now using the new authenticated endpoints! We’re grateful to and proud of the ecosystem for moving so quickly 🚀

We’re on track to hit nearly 100% by August 28th, but some fixes and releases will be landing awfully close to that deadline – so we’re moving the deadline back one week to September 4th.

The recording for my talk from Berlin Mini GUADEC about the GNOME STF project is now online! Probably the talk with the least preparation and sleep I've ever given, but hopefully interesting nevertheless.

I'm very sad that @sonny was not allowed to give the talk with me as planned. He is the heart and soul of the STF project, and none of this would have been possible without him.

in reply to lebout2canap ⏚

@lebout2canap The async annotations are a new marker for GObject-Introspection, like the ones we have for memory ownership.

This allows bindings like JavaScript and Python (and maybe Rust) to automatically map `foo()`/`foo_finish()` methods to their native async/await syntax.



The real magic of this is that I'm not even signed into Youtube. That's the part that really locks in the flavor.

With apologies to those who come at me every few months to complain that some of my toots have #hashtags within the contents instead of "after the contents", this is an argument that can never be won, as I illustrate below.

I'd rather see screen reader applications (or a11y-aware #Mastodon clients) automatically solve the problem by removing the hashtag and/or colors for those who don't want them. Otherwise, you're petitioning each individual instead of fixing the tools. Ya heard me, #MastoDev

in reply to Jeff Fortin T.

Oh no!

I heard you were supposed to in-line hashtags for screen readers.

They're better after for AT devices?

Замедление YouTube с технической стороны

#network #security #infosec #proxy #vless #vmess #youtube #roscompozor #ntc_party

Готовые средства обхода. Waujito написал своё решение под линукс (github.com/Waujito/youtubeUnbl…), которое направлено только на ютуб.
Также для Windows существует GoodbyeDPI от ValdikSS (github.com/ValdikSS/GoodbyeDPI), под линукс еще есть zapret (github.com/bol-van/zapret).
Существует ByeDPI (github.com/hufrea/byedpi), который работает как прокси (Windows/Linux). Также есть версия ByeDPI под андроид (github.com/dovecoteescapee/Bye…), работает как "фейковый впн".

Советую прочитать подробный комментарий от ValdikSS о том, как использовать эти средства. (github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issue…)

Если есть желание погрузиться глубже в эту тему, вот тут можно посмотреть подробнее: https://ntc.party/t/замедление-youtube-в-россии/8055/ and https://ntc.party/t/обсуждение-замедление-youtube-в-россии/8074/

Outreachy is getting squeezed financially from reduced funding related to diversity programs and reduced funding for open source orgs. Can you help us spread the word about how important the program is and help us connect to folks who might contribute funding?

A quick OptiSpeech update.
I started a training run last Friday in an Azure VM donated by a friend from India.
I implemented pitch control, which is analogous to inflection setting found in other TTS systems.
A demo website is coming soon that allows you to try the model with your own text.

WARNING THE MODEL IS STILL IN EARLY TRAINING. Only 190K steps, target is 1M steps.



In den 40er oder 50iger Jahren wurde das kleine Häuschen mit natürlichen und nachhaltigen Materialien aus der #Region gebaut. Dazu zählte auch die Farbe für den Sims/ Ringanker. Sie wurde in der nahegelegenen Stadt aus Naturmaterialien hergestellt. Diese #Farbenfabrik gibt es schon lange nicht mehr, aber ein Enthusiast knüpft an diese Tradition an.
Ich freue mich über den strahlenden Anstrich, den man damals Saalfelder Ocker nannte.

Yesterday I released version 0.8.0 of the rubbl_casatables Rust crate. If you've ever wanted to work with low-level CASA data using a compiled language that doesn't make you hate yourself, take a look! The blog post talks a bit more about container formats in general and why C++ makes me sad.

I have been working on getting Toby Doom using TTS in Windows. Using Powershell, and it is actually coming along quite nicely. Powershell has some nifty features. It's not bash, but not too bad nonetheless. To follow progress, there is this topic on the audiogames.net forum.
