Die Frage auf welcher Seite die Polizei stehe wird von vielen als ungebührlich empfunden. Das ist bemerkenswert, denn der Kreisparteitag der Grünen war wegen einer Handvoll gewaltbereiter Traktoren nicht durchführbar–gestern waren 70.000 Menschen die den AFD Parteitag verhindern wollten kein Problem. Das Bedenkliche ist nicht, dass man diese Frage im Einzelfall stellen kann. Das bedenkliche ist, dass man diese Frage nicht stellen muss, weil die Polizei sie wieder und wieder von selbst aufwirft.

@TomGrant91 I have heard you say much good about it. I'll need to move away from goldwave I guess at some point so when I do, it'll be on my investment list.
in reply to Sean Randall

You can use it in there if it supports VST's.

@TomGrant91 it does say it supports vst's but I've never used one. I guess it's free to twiddle with!
in reply to Sean Randall

@cachondo @TomGrant91 Well make your life a little easier by downloading something easy and genuinely free, like a reverb plugin to see how GW handles vst's in the first place. Two I recommend are called:
Ambiance
And
MVerb.
These are both completely free reverb plugins that probably don't even have installers, just dll's that you put in a certain place in windows where vst's get scanned, and then you just load it as an effect.

@FluidEscence I switched from VmWare Fusion to UTM, because the CoreAudio option is basically native to me. I can’t find a way to make any other option use that. It’s worth it if your just using output from a VM.

Quite number of things have happened since I have mentioned my occassional usage of #emacS:
* @Termux is trying to update its compatibility with recent #android versions returning into the Google play in the process.
* speechd-el the app that acts as a built-in screen reader for emacs got some polishing and fixes recently.
* Touch and speech have recently released an update to Corvus, suite of assistive apps for #android that also feature great liblouis powered braille keyboard that can emulate alt, ctrl and shift keys allowing me to use emacs keybindings on the braille touch keyboard.
* I'm on holiday these days and I can benefit from having a screenreader accessible linux terminal with powerfull tools inside my pocket.

So here is a short article I wrote on the matter last week

@Piciok Thanks for sharing the instructions. Now the voice output of Emacs also works on my Android smartphone. Together with the mobile Braille keyboard metabraille, this is very practical.

in reply to Oskar

@Oskar @Paweł Masarczyk Do you guys have more details about @Projekt Define Is it really this hardware mobile phone case with braille keyboard included? I know all the documentation is available online for the do it yourself project, but is there someone who is making these units? gitlab.com/metabraille/metabra…
in reply to Peter Vágner

@define @Piciok Metabraille is a mobile Braille-Keyboard. You can connect it via Bluetooth to a Smartphone or a Computer. We are developing and producing them.
in reply to Oskar

@Oskar @Projekt Define @Paweł Masarczyk Can you please try to describe how it looks like? Is it built into the smartphone case? Is there a place to order it from? What's the price for an individual user? Does it use liblouis for the back translation from braille? I don't seem to be able to find out these details on the website or should I be looking at something else?
in reply to Peter Vágner

@define @Piciok Metabraille is built like a house with a roof. 8 buttons in the front and two buttons on the roof instead of windows. You hold the house with both hands between your palms and type with the fingers on the front and with your thumbs on the roof. It is like holding a keyboard upside down in the air with your palms and typing on the backside. 12 cm long, 10 cm width, 2.6 cm depth. it is a standalone device, not built in the smartphone case.
in reply to Peter Vágner

@define @Piciok Metabraille does not use liblouis. The translation happens in the device. Liblouis is not ported to the microcrontroller and not used.
in reply to Oskar

@define @Piciok unified english braille is not supported yet. we support german braille for the moment. but we will implement unified english braille.
in reply to Oskar

@Oskar @Projekt Define @Paweł Masarczyk Hmmm, while adopting we'll have to implement different braille codes. e.g. For some serious typing I'd like to have slovak braille code. Newertheless it sounds very interesting. With this keyboard can you fully operate your smartphone?
in reply to Peter Vágner

@define @Piciok We want to implement all European languages step by step. Metabraille is a full keyboard replacement. You can fully operate your smartphone with this keyboard.
in reply to Peter Vágner

@define @Piciok metabraille is optimized to be assembled by people with visual impairments or blindness. the assembly kit costs about 180 Euro
in reply to Peter Vágner

On iOS we have ISH which is an awesome piece of software. Its a full emulator of Linux kernel. Emulator, not a VM. Reading through its code is an adventure full of twists and turns, but very rewarding if you like such things.


Dear !Friendica Support I'm sometimes reading my #friendica timeline from the @Tusky app on #android.
I am having an issue that some parts of the timeline are not loaded into the @Tusky app at all.
I have figured out when replies are added into a thread, the post is being repositioned in the list of posts returned by the #Mastodon compatible API. @Tusky is not fetching older posts when the one that has already been requested is found while syncing new posts. That is causing gaps in my timeline I can read on the phone.
It really sounds complicated. Do you understand what's my issue?

#AudioMo for June 30, 2024
To end AudioMo for this year, though I didn't post every day, I offer this short narrated thing I put together on June 28, 2018, demonstrating how quickly the night sounds change in my old hometown around this time of year.
I was recovering from some serious alergy badness in this recording, so my voice isn't quite what it should be. Sorry 'bout that.
I would re-record the voice track, but I apparently didn't save the project in anything but rendered format.

I just wrote a little #NVDASR app module for Phone Link to:
1. Allow shift+tabbing to the message list without the app crashing, since Microsoft apparently can't be bothered fixing this rather severe bug.
2. Allow alt+1 to focus the Conversations list when the Messages view is already active instead of just doing nothing.
I can't really be bothered submitting it as a proper add-on or a core app module, but if anyone wants it, let me know and I can throw it up somewhere.

in reply to Jamie Teh

Maybe it would be good for the windows app esentials addon?
in reply to Drew Mochak

@drew Maybe. It probably should go in core, but it feels a bit weird because I'm hacking around a very silly bug that Microsoft will probably eventually fix. Then again, maybe they won't.
in reply to Jamie Teh

@drew Mostly, I just don't have the patience or inclination right now to go through code review and polish the code - type annotations, etc. - when it works just fine for me.
in reply to Jamie Teh

Does phone link get updated often? I haven’t used it much though I hear it is quite useful. IDK man, I am still mad at them for “new outlook” being such a pile of garbage. I have to use it for work and it is a massive hit to my productivity. I am not confident the app teams are looking at stuff like that. I suppose I should be more forgiving though, , their track record in general is quite good.
in reply to Drew Mochak

@drew I do get update notifications every now and then, one within the last month or so, but I'm not really sure how often. I did submit feedback for the crash a while back and it's been crickets thus far.

More interesting/typical Android stuff: When I first turned on the phone it asked if I wanted to use RCS and asked me to agree to the TOS for their RCS provider. I declined the TOS at this time. One day later I get a popup saying that RCS is on now "by default". I check and RCS is on. No longer asking, I suppose.
in reply to mcc

It sucks that #RCS, even though being an open standard, has no FOSS implementation. It is only implemented in Google's proprietary Play Services on Android, and they have a whitelist for the apps that can use it, which currently is limited to Google's and Samsung's messaging apps. This really sucks, because RCS could have been a massive improvement for everyone if it was implemented in AOSP and could be used without proprietary apps.

Tagged a new U-Boot release for some #Qualcomm phones, now supporting the OnePlus 8T (kebab), since it's what I've been using to do upstream development.

Still a bit of a pain to get started with since you need to modify your GPT to mark a partition as the ESP, you can do this using gdisk from an existing @postmarketOS installation.

Once that's done, you can build a postmarketOS image for qualcomm-sdm845 or postmarketos-trailblazer (passing --split to pmbootstrap install), flash the boot image to your elected ESP and the rootfs to userdata, and then enjoy your EFI'd phone :D

Speaking of kebab, initial support for the OnePlus 8T sent upstream! Including display and touch screen drivers which I'm really happy are in a somewhat upstreamable state.

lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/…

Need to figure out the firmware situation in pmaports, but otherwise once these patches land it'll be one of the first devices supported exclusively by the postmarketos-trailblazer device with Linux next!
