I still miss UseNet. Trying to use this platform as well as I can. The assumption is that people who engage with what I post are also likely to post things I might find interesting.
This year will be my first time attending #39c3. If you have any recommendations, just want to say hi, or would like photographs taken of something, my DMs are open!
Christmas is a bit melancholy this year. I don't want to ruin anyone's mood, so I'm trying to keep it on the down low, but there are definitely some saddening differences between this year's Christmas and last year's.
Somehow it won't get into my head that another year is over. And this is not even trying to be that "time flies" type of post. I just, can't really grasp it. I read old messages from a year ago, and there's just nothing. I feel like I've been stuck with nothing new, or old, or left. Not sure how to describe it. Like things kinda fade away, but somehow don't, nothing is really, worth building on, or completely trustworthy. Idk it's all a mess. And 25 didn't make it better at all. From a technical perspective, I've learned more than a ton this year, and improved a huge lot. But the satisfaction only lasts a few moments till my perfectionism takes over again, what do I know really, it's still a long way. Yet I don't even feel the progress I've made this year, cuz there's no one really to share it with. Cuz ultimately nerdy is only cool as long as someone else understands what you're up to, and at this point I feel like I'm at a position where it's kinda impossible to. All right you may move on or something, guess these words wheren't really informative at all.

It is not only me. It is the whole team behind all this. Without Olga Yakovleva as the core developer, it would not be possible to have for example Croatian language, and the whole language possibilities which we have now.
and also, I will do more in the future if needed. I am also all into NVDA, translation work, so if Luxembourgers even are going to plan such a thing, I am able to help. The symbols file for luxembourgish is already there.
I just checked Norad to see where Santa was and he was flying over Venezuela. He'd better be careful or he might not get out of there. Yup. I'm being snarky.
I picture Santa climbing down the chimney, dropping off a bunch of presents, and climbing up, all in a fraction of a second, somehow, since that would be all the time he has, in order to hit every house in the world in a 24-hour timespan.
Marry Christmas to all of my followers, I still can't thank @Tamasg enough for making the FlexVoice 3 NVDA addon! I know it will be somewhat difficult to make the one for version 2, but to give you (and others) an idea as to what FlexVoice 2 sounds like, I attached a sample on this post. Note: it says that it is version 3, but it's actually version 2.
haha. If you can somehow get me a full SDK with header files to the engine and such, wow that would be a ig help in making this real. I'm still struggling to even compile a wrapper DLL for V2 because some of the attributes were different back then. But it might happen if we're lucky.
On a parlÊ un peu de la politique du QuÊbec hier soir et, bien sÝr, mon père a dit: ben nous c'est pas compliquÊ, c'est sÝr qu'on va y aller avec Duhaime.

J'ai aussi eu droit au traditionnel chialage sur le tramway!! Woohoo haha
Leute, lasst es euch gesagt sein: Schräg auf eine Kante zwischen BĂźrgersteig und Kiesweg zu treten und dabei umzuknicken ist nicht zu empfehlen. Beim prompt folgenden Sturz hab' ich mir vorhin ganz schĂśn das Knie und den Unterschenkel lädiert. Das Bild vom gepflasterten Knie und mit KĂźhlpack umwickelter Wade erspare ich euch. Und da sage noch einer, spazieren gehen sei gesund! Alles voll Fake News, ey! đ
@SandiPavkovic Das hoffe ich auch! Aber noch zwickt das Knie ganz schĂśn. Das wird wohl auch noch eine Weile so bleiben. Und ich habe wohl einige Muskeln falsch beansprucht, die fangen gerade an zu katern.
Spoke to my mom for Christmas, she's doing good, visiting Thailand. It's actualy turning out to be a cheerier one than I thought a few hours ago, really a bright Christmas for me. I wish the same to all of you.

Subscriptions that lock you into renewing because they have some sort of credit system like Audible or Splice, where when you cancel you lose the credits and basically wasted money, but also don't instantly find something to use up all the credits should be prohibited. You're literally taking away something I've paid for, just because I don't want even more of it. On that note, I finally need to get rid of my stupid Splice sub so if you know nice packs...
By the way: indoor positioning using our Android app is already working and we're working on making it better than ever before this year!
If you have a phone capable of Wifi RTT measuring (unfortunately that's mainly Google Pixel and Samsung), you even get more precise positioning :)
If you have an iPhone, there is no app. It wouldn't have any advantages to adding our site as an app through your browser, because iOS doesn't allow apps to scan for WiFi networks. #39c3
My analysis of Bitcoin from 2018 has proven correct in many ways, and it's identification of the value mechanism has been supported by many studies, however the prediction that that when the speculative bubble will burst and BTC will eventually become a toxic asset has not. 1/4
However, to the degree that BTC collateral debt is securitized may be something to watch, as a sharp fall in BTC may yet cause the kind of Minsky moment I describe sometime in the future. 3/4
Wow, Joe from Tactile Engineering already responded, they'll be sending out a new unit for me potentially Friday. Can't believe that. Truthfully it did fall off my bed onto the carpet later on, I pulled my blanket not realizing I had left it there. So it then broke further. Sad! But maybe not so now, knowing that they'll send me a brand new unit and were still understanding about the issue! I don't think every one of them will be this fragile, because the right-side one I have has done a lot better despite also having fallen onto carpet. So it's not like you drop one, and poof, it's gone fragile, broken. They really do try to make these displays solid, and one incident isn't going to mar my judgment on them. He said, "Don't worry, we signed up to provide the best working multiline display. The feedback is important as well!" So yes, Tactile Engineering does take this seriously.

Vielen Dank, es war mal wieder sehr lustig und teils auch traurig. Bei der einen gewissen Geschichte drängte sich mir eine aus einem alten Torfrock-Lied abgewandelte Textzeile ins Hirn: "Ratata-zong, ratata-zong, wech ist der Karton! Dong!" đ

I mean not announcing real CVEs, this was a misunderstanding. I mean that there were lots of AI Slop bugs etc. reported in the project that weren't bugs.
This is your yearly reminder that Santa's naughty and nice lists are a form of data collection that should have a method for one to opt out, but don't, leaving him in violation of the GDPR.
Decided to switch to @Tutanota today after trying a few different services out.
The app feels the most responsive out of the ones i tried and the subscription doesn't cost much either, and it's nice to support them financially to help further development. #tutamail #tuta #tutanota #secureemail
A huge blocklist of manually curated sites that contain AI generated imagery for uBlock Origin & uBlacklist. - laylavish/uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist
Attached: 1 image
đ¤ You can now block many #AI websites & content from your search engine results!
â Step 1 - Add this free & open source #Adblocker to your #browser: https://github.
This is a somewhat (or even mostly) useless list. It just filters AI "features" and websites from search engine results. It does nothing for the sites you use every day, like social media and news, that are littered with AI content.
If you use the same search engine, and you generally don't visit random sites on a regular basis, especially obvious AI ones, then this list will do pretty much nothing for your browsing experience.
Btw, I implemented that when it was first released and thought it had stopped working. If it does that for anyone else - re-import it. Somehow my ublock Origin messed it up somewhen in between. It still works.
Well, technically I already celebrated yesterday with my family, but happy Christmas to those who celebrate it today. And a late happy Christmas to these who celebrated it yesterday. Show your loved ones that you appreciate and love them. It's never to early, but sometimes to late. That being said, I myself will go to a larger family dinner in a few hours. Looking forward to the ambience and spending a nice time.

@jonathan859 Yeah I've done that sometimes. Idk if it actually helps you though. It's funny, it often didn't even remind me in 3 days starting from the times this popped up
I want to pick one to invest my time in fully setting up. I've tried SimpleX and it's okay but I see DeltaChat is active on Fedi and maybe has more momentum?
