Storm Dragon pushed changes to the master branch of the linux-game-manager project Worked on filter strings. Probably more to do.
Kuffovci nie sú pomätenci ale prepnutý magory, teda je to asi to isté ale to moje pomenovanie je výstižnejšie.

Newsfilter: Pomätenci vo vláde už začali rušiť predstavenia národného divadla
1. Už rušia predstavenie v divadle. 2. Čo urobí Hlas? Nič. 3. Pospíšil sa nemá za čo hanbiť, Šatan áno.YouTube

neviem, ťažko sa mi odhaduje ako na tom sú ale evidentne si to užívajú. Lepší výkon OČTK, to má byť vtip? Ja viem že nie ale je žalostný a po posledných úpravách trestného zákona...

Ak je mojim zaujmom mat tu kludny a dobry zivot, tak sa musim primarne snazit a slusne a funkcne riesenia. A teda preto ten "lepsi vykon OCTK".
Lebo sa samozrejme da napr. aj "brat spravodlivost do vlastnych ruk", ale to by v pripade ludi typu Kuffa rychlo vyeskalovalo:
- on mi zrusi divadlo
- ja mu zrusim omsu
- on prise zrusit mna
- ak sa mu podari zrusit mna, niekto dalsi skusi zrusit jeho
- …
vysledok: obcianska vojna
A prave any sme sa vyhli vojnam, mame zakony a OCTK.
Storm Dragon pushed changes to the master branch of the linux-game-manager project Massive rewrite of how speaking with TTS is handled. This should open up compatibility with pretty much every wad out there as far as TTS is concerned. There may be unwanted speech until everything is ironed out.

Peter Vágner reshared this.
Who knew that the global human extinction ushered in by Skynet was caused by merely turning it on for the first time and watching it consume all the water and natural resources?
It didn't even need to get to that self-aware stage, or have enough reason to determine that "humans are a virus", or even ramp up the production of autonomous H/K drones and Terminators.
It just had to be powered on.

My personal opinion: this European Accessibility Act is going to face a lot of similar obstacles as other similar “acts” that have been introduced in other countries, for example, USA. Reason? Written primarily by lawyers and non-technologists, too many “but”’s and apologies on behalf of small-size businesses, etc. Example: a business that generates 2 min mln Euros per year is excused from being accessible? Say what? In 2024? digitala11y.com/introduction-t…

@miki But 2 mln Euros? That’s an arbitrary number. Plus I don’t think accessibility should be sacrificed, not in 2024. 20 years ago, yes, accessibility was hard. Today? Not so much, especially if you think about it from the start. Mind you, I am a pragmatic person by nature!
It's an arbitrary number, but there has to be some arbitrary number.
And the question isn't just about how easy accessibility is, it's about how easy people think it is and what effect a legal scare will have on them. Whether the scare is warranted is entirely unimportant here.

Here's a very rough demo of a bit of old technology from 1989 or so, at least that's when we got ours. Almost certainly headed for a landfill soon, as we're moving and not taking it with us. The Xerox Kurzweil Personal Reader model 7315, a print reading machine for the blind. The system we had with the electronics unit and automatic scanner cost $10,000 in 1989. This or a machine very similar was demonstrated on an episode of Mr. Roger's Neighborhood.
Here's a recording of the power-on sequence of self tests, after I set the machine to verbose mode as opposed to terse mode. I explain what this recording is, and have a few comments. @datajake1999 @bryansmart
oooh this is fascinating, I'm glad this is demoed, would have been lost to history otherwise. Especially as most wouldn't be interested to explore these underpinnings.
(I'll edit this to also say that I was amused by how DECTalk would lower its pitch through some of the POS tests, like it was getting more serious as they went on.)

Um, right then. Going through a random folder on my drive, I came across this odd Eloquence-related track called 'Vicki makes me sticky' don't ask me where it came from. Anyway, now you can have it too. Enjoy your Sunday won't you?
I really wonder how this was done. It sounds like maybe someone used one of those iOS auto-rap apps and played Eloquence through a speaker? The instrumental comes from an old song by Nicki (not Vicki) Minaj. youtu.be/pSFyrrhKj1Q?si=kTK38Y…

Back when we were all trying to get public health to add covid protections back by making fun of them for sending kids home for lice but not covid we probably shouldn't have underestimated how stupid they are.
there are two things that infinite: the universe and human stupid. but even the universe we are not sure.
Is this *too much*? Historically, having two crate versions in your dependency tree and accidentally mixing types from them led to horribly obtuse error messages (expected `Foo`, found `Foo`). We've slowly chipped away at them, but somethings I fear I might have gone overboard with detail. 😬

I think it's great. That level of explanation is likely to help less experienced users.
@matt My take is that even experienced users are not *homogeneously* experienced in the entire language. We all hit an uncommon corner every now and then, so making errors easier to understand for newcomers helps everyone. :)
