@mhussain Installing from ISOs you already have isn't what quickemu is for. You use quickget to download the installation image, then quickemu to run it with an optimised configuration. If you want to do your own thing, you can tinker with the generated config, but it's not a supported use case.

@marxjohnson thank you so much for your help! i was gripped on the epesode talking about alan's new voice! I hopefully will be able to use it with screen readers some day? he has a good voice perfect for reading out my fav webnovels ? and for navigation it would be good if you or martin made voices of your own! to think, it would be you emortal for ever. legends you are at present, but after, you will gain the title imortal legend! :)

PSA: If you're trying to run my Mac versions of my apps and they crash, try installing openssl with homebrew. This will be fixed in a later version of NVGT, hopefully soon, but for now if you have homebrew and it's added to your path, just run the following in a terminal:
brew install openssl

If Brew's not added to your path, but is installed, you can run:
/opt/Homebrew/bin/brew install openssl

You can get Homebrew from brew.sh

Habe gestern einmal ein paar Anregung hinsichtlich der Verbesserung der Zugänglichkeit einiger Elemente in der App #OsmAnd ans Entwicklerteam gemailt, bin mal gespannt.
@radiorobbe hat die App unter

@antoniof has been doing some fantastic work on the new Nautilus file chooser. We're finally getting to a point where we'll be shipping a usable adaptive file chooser upstream.

this is sooo cool! With the rise of touch, can we join the single-click-to-open club? 👀

Hin und wieder mal daran erinnern, dass noch bis zum 9. Oktober 2024 die #EU-#Bürgerinitiative #TaxTheRich läuft. Sie richtet sich an die Europäische Kommission und fordert diese auf, eine EU-weite Regelung für die Besteuerung hoher Vermögen einzuführen, um aus den so eingenommenen Geldern den schnelleren Umbau hin zu einer klimaneutralen und klimagerechten Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft zu finanzieren.

Aktuell (29. Juni) haben knapp 227.000 Menschen die Petition unterzeichnet. Das Ziel sind 1 Mio. Aber hey, wir sind eigentlich 500 Mio. Menschen in der EU. Also los!

Und schreibt solche Postings wie dieses hier auch ruhig mal in anderen Sprachen, die ihr beherrscht, und die in der EU gesprochen werden.

Ticked off a few more to-do items for my upcoming icon manager app!

- When importing a folder of icons it now scans sub-directories too. It can handle icons with the same name but in different folders, and it looks for keywords in folders and filenames like "solid" or "duotone" to detect the icon style.
- You can filter by icon style
- Flip a coin. If it's heads, you can delete a set without the app crashing. (I got tails)

Some of the comments on this thread are amazing. False information, claims with no supporting evidence, anti-technology ranting... I've said it before, and I'll say it again: maybe Glidence works and maybe it doesn't. It is NOT "just another smart cane", and it's trying things no one else has tried in the realm of technological O&M aids. Let's at least let it get into peoples' hands before we yell and scream about how terrible and stupid it is. reddit.com/r/Blind/comments/1d…

With UUP dump, you can create a Windows 11 ISO without UWP apps and Microsoft Edge.
Simply obtain Windows 11 22H2 or a later version.
Then, in the ConvertConfig.ini file, change the values for SkipEdge and SkipApps from 0 to 1 and execute the script to produce the Windows 11 ISO.
Windows 11 Version 24H2 installed from the generated ISO with the changes applied to the ConvertConfig.ini file which skips installing Microsoft Edge and the UWP apps.

@FreakyFwoof another trick that works even now, is after you have installed windows, and you reach the main OOBE not the getting ready faze, where you start getting asked questions, launch task manager, run new task type in services.msc, and disable the service named appx deployment service. "getts apps ready the first time a user signs in to there account" when you answer all of the questions, and you are signed in you will find none of the bull apps installed. you will have to launch the settings app via the run dialog box by typeing ms-settings
