For those who use IBM TTS on Linux. Get the IBMTTS dictionaries, copy them to /var/opt/IBM/ibmtts/dict, change files like this, from Enu-main.dic to main.dct. And then it should work. Do change the rest of those files too. Root and abbreviantion. Oh yeah enu-abbr.dic should be abbreviation.dct. So: abbreviation.dct main.dct root.dct.

When we get such answers, sometimes it's just so frustrating that I understand even less this thing about disability pride and such things. You cannot live your life, you cannot find a job, you have to fight, fight, fight, always fight.
Mehr #Datenschutz auf dem #Handy wünschen sich viele #Menschen, die mir begegnen.
Aber nicht jede:r möchte oder kann ein #Smartphone mit einem alternativen #Betriebssystem wie z.B. GrapheneOS ausstatten.
Wie man dennoch einen kleinen Schritt in Richtung #digitaleSouveränität gehen kann, versuche ich in diesem #Blog Post zu beschreiben:
Ich ersetze zusätzlich noch die Tastatur App in eine m. E. Vertrauenswürdigere.

Canadian Ken Westerfeld during his World Champion of Freestyle days. Back then, the scene was in the park behind the Ontario Legislature buildings, and top athletes like Ken were happy to throw with whomever showed up. How very weird.
That attitude made an indelible mark on my soul. Thanks, Ken, wherever you are!
In 1978, Dungeons and Dragons was VERY weird.
But here's the thing: The tall, thin, coffee-toned dungeon-master in this newspaper story? The sick weirdos obsessed with controlling every aspect of our culture and imagination would happily have burned him alive for being weird if they could have gotten away with it.
Kids having fun exercising their imaginations in glorious technicolour are the good weird.

Well done #nvidia. Update to driver 560 uses the "opensource" kernel module and works even worse then before. 👏

Re Telegram - two main issues are apparently at play. One is child porn, the other is concerns about ransomware/extortion groups. The big concern is rightly about the first one.
With the later, groups targeting France (and the UK) have been dumping victim data on Telegram groups, with Telegram directly hosting the data and then failing to remove it.
Telegram is not an encrypted platform - the groups are plain text.
Telegram has <50 staff and 1 billion monthly active users.
With regards to Elon’s claim today that a majority of Mastodon content is child porn - this isn’t true.
Some Fediverse servers are unsavoury - as an instance admin, you can chose to defederate them or not cache media content. You would only encounter this if a user interacted with it.
After approaching two years of being a Mastodon admin to a server with tens of thousands of users, I’ve only ever seen one post which was concerning - I removed the server and reported it to relevant authorities.

Alles, wirklich ALLES an dieser "Debatte" zu Solingen ist furchtbar, und schlicht unerträglich und inakzeptabel. Völlig entgleist😟
Ich lese auch deshalb wenig dazu*. Was ich nirgendwo lese ist etwas zu den Opfern dieser schrecklichen Tat, die scheinen vollkommen verdrängt von diesem rassistisch durchtränkten Fokus auf Migration.
Man könnte z.b. auch mal fragen, wie man die Ursachen islamistischer Radikalisierung bekämpfen kann.

The #OpenStreetMap-api slightly changed yesterday-afternoon, causing many uploads made with #MapComplete to fail yesterday afternoon and night. However, there is error reporting and logging and @pietervdvn did manually run the failed changes.
If you had changes which didn't upload yesterday, check again and they might have appeared.
