Phono jack electrical signaling is one of the oldest standards still in use -- basically as old as electrical transmission itself. With a physical adapter that you can still buy today for pennies, you could plug contemporary headphones into a telephone switchboard from 1870 and it would *just work*.
It is a god damned war crime that Apple took this away from us. I will die on this hill.
Samsung je tým notoricky známy a mne to nevadí... One UI 6.1 a One UI 7.0 prešli citeľnými zmenami, pravdepodobne keby vymažem cache tak by to nebolo potrebné.
edit: ja po upgrade Android verzie továrko robím vždy.
@Ralfeek @tothdaniel telefón išiel... pre môj pokoj na duši robím fr po každej aktualizácii na vyššiu verziu Androidu. Samsung aj tak vydáva nové verziu nedoladené a pri nových telefónoch platí to isté, to je prostě Samsung.
@Ralfeek Tak to by sa mi naozaj nechcelo robiť reset po každej aktualizácii. Ja si nový mobil vždy upravím a ponastavujem rôzne nastavenia, a robiť toto dookola by ma nebavilo.
Ďalšia vec je, že by som musel inštalovať všetky aplikácie odznova. Pre mňa príliš veľa práce. A najmä ak by som mal telefón za 1500€, asi by čom od neho čakal, aby šľapal na 1****. Aj preto by som nikdy nechcel Samsung, lebo sa mi nepáči jeho nadstavba, ktorá je navyše plná balastu. Ale tak každý má iné priority, rešpektujem.
@tothdaniel Inak dobré toto vedieť. Aktuálne mám Motorolu G54PE za necelé dve stovky a som maximálne spokojný, až na ten priemerný foťák. Kedysi som uvažoval aj nad Samsungom a po tomto som teda rád, že som do neho nešiel a asi ani v budúcnosti doň radšej nepôjdem, akoby som mal toto podstupovať. Motorola má update vyladené a bez problémov. A je fakt teda, že na mobile na tisíce by som čakal iný luxus používania. @SuspiciousDuck
@Ralfeek Tak v dnešnej dobe stačí na bežné používanie mobil za 300-400€. Jediná výhoda tých predražených vlajkových lodí je iba kvalitný foťák, inak nemajú žiadne výhody. Ja som mal (a žiaľ ešte mám, keďže mi nový mobil ukradli) 6 rokov jeden a ten istý mobil, ktorý fungoval celý čas spoľahlivo (až na baterku, ktorá sa opotrebovala, ale to je údel každého zariadenia). Systém funguje dobre a je rýchly aj po takomto čase, hoci už aktualizácie nemám 4 roky. V dobe kúpi stal 500€ a bola to tiež vtedy vlajková loď (vtedy mali mobily ešte rozumné ceny).
A môj ukradnutý mobil, ktorý si plánujem kúpiť ešte raz stál 480€ (v akcii), pritom mal 512GB úložisko a 16 GB RAM (virtuálne rozšíriteľná až do 28 GB). Takéto špecifikácie väčšinou neponúkajú ani vlajkové lode. Ale na druhú stranu áno, je to čínska značka, čo je veľké mínus toho mobilu.
@tothdaniel Ja som mal pred Motorolou iPhone XR 5 rokov a max spokojnosť. Ale povedal som si, že už nebudem do spotrebného tovaru vrážať toľké peniaze, tak som išiel do tohto. Na bežné používanie to bohate stačí a na niekoľko rokov mám pokoj. @SuspiciousDuck
@Tutanota Hey Team, this is a wonderful wonderful explanation on "labels" please can you be humble enough to read this thetechiesenior.com/how-do-i-m… as I mean well . Start from "How Labels and Folders are Different"
"I think it’s best to see labels in Gmail as just that. They are removable labels that help you remember what an email pertained to. They are not folders that act as storage containers for emails"
If you are like I was more than a decade ago when I set up my Gmail account, you may be asking, “How do I make a folder in Gmail?” In this article, we’ll take
Thankyou very much. Please know that i'm not wanting too offend anyone, just want to see flexible labels(tags) as the current labels feature is so terribly inflexible it drives my adhd brain insane on ios! 😞
NVDA 2025.1 Beta 3 is now available for testing. As well as all the NVDA 2025.1 updates, beta3 adds: - Updates to translations - Disallow new Remote Access session in Secure Mode - Update Remote Access interface - Add unassigned command for Remote Access settings - SAPI 4 bug fixes

Hi, I have to say, I really don't like the UX for the upgrade process now. Once you select to do the update, all you hear is the NVDA close sound, then half a minute of silence, then two NVDA start sounds. You don't even confirm update successful or anything, so how can we know if it goes wrong?
@davetaylor2112 I don't think the update routine has changed recently? You should still get the beep beep beep of the progress bar - unless you have turned that off in your settings perhaps? You get an error message if the update fails. if it works, then your new copy starts. That is how it has worked previously, but perhaps you are used to updating to a new beta by downloading the launcher from the release announcement rather than updating from within NVDA?
@davetaylor2112 I think you're thinking of updating from the downloadable launcher (the one you download from the release announcement page) - the launcher sound (not the four note NVDA startup but the more organ chord longer tune) was only ever played with the launcher, not when updating from NVDA's help menu (or update notification within NVDA)
EDIT: There's an unmerged pull request to fix this (see replies). Hey I hate to be a pest, but I'm wondering if anyone has noticed issue #17965. Basically, some code was added to NVDA remote to prevent a controller from sending keys when no machine is connected. The problem is, the check is in the wrong place. If I'm controlling another machine and that machine disconnects, I'm now stuck in limbo, sending keys to nowhere, and I can't toggle back to my own machine because the same check is blocking the toggle and telling me no computer is connected. I'm effectively locked out of my own computer until I use another machine to connect to the same server with the same key, at which point I can go back to the original computer and stop sending keys. Seems like a matter of just rearranging an if statement a bit, but as of a couple of days ago this still affects alpha versions.
@simon Looking at that issue it links to this pull request which will fix it: github.com/nvaccess/nvda/pull/… Sean has tagged that with the 2025.1 milestone today, so looks like the intention is to include that in perhaps the next beta.
Link to issue number:
Fixes #17965
Summary of the issue:
If the controlling computer is sending keyboard input to the controlled computer when the controlled computer disconnects from the session, ...
@serrebi @simon Just for those following this - we merged the PR to close issue #17965 this morning, so it should be in an alpha build soon if it isn't already.
Okay, so a question hear. Do you think the XP era voices will be able to handle rateboost? I have a coppy of the latest testing release, and when i turn on rateboost, the pitch sounds off, and the voice sounds like it's breaking. I will be reporting my findings.

In 1938, Frederick McKinley Jones, a self-taught Black inventor with just an 8th-grade education, revolutionized global food logistics in creating the first refrigeration system for trucks, an invention that became the foundation of Thermo King.
During World War II, his cooling units preserved food and medical supplies for troops overseas, saving countless lives. Today, his legacy lives on in every refrigerated truck, helping feed the world with fresh produce year-round. - Black American Pride
Sign this petition if you like Mastodon. The UK's online safety act doesn't just target big social media. Any sufficiently large site hosting user content is targeted. Even your Mastodon instance.
Lots of countries are making laws like it, which make it harder for *us*. It puts the onus on service providers to remove "harmful content" - draconian in itself and "harmful" is vague, often something otherwise legal so the Act is an attack on free speech.
It's not ice cream truck everywhere, but it is here in Aurora, Colorado. This one is singing Turkey In The Straw. Not to be confused with the hip hop Adrian is blasting. That, thankfully, did not get picked up in this recording. Just the truck, and the sounds of my street at mid-day.
Regardless of PewDiePie’s personal #politics (which clearly, at the very least are problematic), it is fairly well known by anyone who has been following him for any number of years that the vast majority of his fan base are enthusiastic fascists.
Now #PewDiePie , who’s content centers around PC gaming and Windows, has decided to switch to #Linux and published a video encouraging his followers to do the same. This means a very large number of his #fascist fan base is going to be switching to Linux.
Now many Linux communities are going to be forced to more explicitly choose their politics. Like the parable of the Nazi bar, if the community remains politically neutral, it will become fascist in short order.
A few things to be wary of:
People asking you not to be “too political” or to “focus on the technology, not the politics” is a classic and highly effective fascist ruse to get moderators to lighten up on fascist elements posting in their community.
People complaining about free speech rights. The #Internet and the #Fediverse is already a domain where people can speak freely about their politics by running their own server and building their own community with few to no government constraints. You don’t need to compromise on whether fascists have the right to free speech in your community.
Arguments over your code of conduct (CC) and “safe spaces.” Keep them up-to-date. Research other people’s CCs, learn about the history of why these CCs came to be, learn about what the function of each clause of the code is included and phrased the way it is. These were usually designed to make explicit the fact that a community wants to be a safe space where underprivileged people can feel comfortable expressing themselves, and it is very easy to make people afraid to express themselves. Fascists understand these CCs and the concept of “safe spaces” were explicitly designed to exclude them, and often attack these ideas.
This is a proof of concept of integration between OpenStreetMap and Panoramax.
panoramax tag is used to get the corresponding picture on OSM-FR server.
In the meantime, more then 50.000 links from OpenStreetMap to Panoramax exists, most of them made by MapComplete. The majority (~47K) are a direct "panoramax"-key; ~700 pictures are specifically of streetsigns and around 7K images are linked as secondary or tertiary picture.
We've also been pushing various other tools to support panoramax tags (e.g. openPOIMap, OpenAEDMap, ...), of which several have implemented this. On others (OsmAnd, Organic Maps), we've opened an issue, but without luck for now.

Thanks to your feedback, this release contains a lot of improvements, fixes, new and improved controller-mappings. We would like to emphasize the importance of testing new versions. You don't have to be a programmer to contribute to Mixxx. Translating, testing new features and checking for possible regression is just as important.
It is recommended that all users update to this new version.

Sry no SVG. JPG-PNG are available in all sizes up to 256px I believe. I even ulpoaded this to git friendica I think, not sure witch versions, every once in a while I retouch something. Terms of use are CC0 (actually NC) but in the case of friendica anything goes.
The colored circular image is a svg "permafluer", published creative commons by someone else in some CC svg catalogue site. The copy left is from a SVG creative commons site. The friendica base is from a friendica logo itself. Gimme a day and I look up all the info with links if I can.

When we visited the exhibition of the Museum of Public Transport in #Brno, I saw a #Škoda 100 and told my kids that my parents had it as their first car when I was as old as they are now. They looked at me in total disbelief. 😄
@ikkeT it was a used car. The production ended in 1977 and they bought it around 1989, so it was a fairly dated car when they got it, but it was all they could afford. Then the regime fell, my father started his business and in 90s he could afford Škoda 120, VW Golf, VW Vento, VW Passat. But I remember none of the later cars brought so much joy into the family like the old Škoda 100. 🙂
@janotomko not really, there is a depository of Brno Technical Museum with public transport vehicles in Řečkovice. It's not normally open, but there are days when they take all the vehicles out and do an exhibition. And one of those days was today.
Aww yeah, the Godot game engine 4.5 dev 3 snapshot is out.
For those of you to whom that's just alphabet soup, 4.5 dev 3 integrates AccessKit! This means that the editor UI, and any game UIs made with it, are screen reader accessible out of the box.
I just spun up an instance in a Fedora distrobox. Haven't gotten far, but the intro and project creation dialogs are certainly usable. Though the creation dialog seems to set its content as the label for all fields which is verbose. Filing that issue but still this is an amazing development!
No clue, haven't played with it much. Trying not to go down that rabbit hole just yet. The editor is at least accessible enough that folks are making games with it though. unseen-godot.alwaysdata.net
Yeah, and Godot isn't even fully compatible across minor release versions. I upgraded from 3.1 to 3.2, I think it was, and a change to default physics bodies caused all my game objects to not move by default.
How about remaking Torrent? Think it was you who developed that and the initial beta was really an alpha, from what I remember from 15 years ago, somewhere around there.
