Nvidia’s Shocking Cutoff: GTX 1060 and Windows 10 Support Ends Soon!
The Beginning of the End for Beloved Graphics Cards and a Trusted OS In a move that signals the closing chapter for an entire era of gaming hardware and software, Nvidia has announced a critical update for Windows 10 users and owners of its GTX 10 and 900 series graphics cards. While there's a short-term reprieve, the long-term future looks uncertain for gamers who haven’t upgraded their GPU or OS.
Libervia CLI Tip 11:
Libervia automatically caches pubsub nodes you are subscribed to.
You can control it with the `li pubsub cache` commands.
The search capabilities are really powerful, with full-text search and many filters.
You can find items across profiles, within a time frame, or on any field of parsed data.
You can show whole items or specific data (e.g., title/author/tags of forum posts within a time frame).
I've reached 60 subscribers on my YouTube channel‼️✨ 🕺💥📈
It's a weirdly satisfying number, and I can't explain why, and I am glad it's just for fun and not about numbers and $$hit.

本曲以柳宗元“欸乃一声山水绿”为题，一叶扁舟，悠游隐逸于江湖，到有风波处寻无波。曲调清新隽永，静中有动，有脱尘寓江海河汉之游，物外烟霞之思。 渔翁 唐·柳宗元 渔翁夜傍西岩宿，晓汲清湘燃楚竹。 烟销日出不见人，欸乃一声山水绿。 回看天际下中流，岩上无心云相逐。 据《天闻阁琴谱》管平湖打谱 演奏：白无瑕...YouTube

@dhamlinmusic @zersiax @fireborn Used Linux, Fedora, for just about a year. If you're fine with Firefox and Chrome, Chrome being buggy sometimes, and Thunderbird, Pidgin, Audacious, Audacity, Emacs with Emacspeak, VS Code, stuff like that, you're good. Oh and LibreOffice for basic formatting and such. You'll be getting a pretty stable screen reader, with no official addon support. A small community of blind users, but a large community of people who can give you commands to run to get just about anything textual or automation-wise. You can even remap modifier keys on your keyboard. The biggest draw is the command line/Terminal, which works very well with Orca/Speakup. Orca in the GUI terminal emulator, Speakup in the console.
The biggest downside is that not many blind developers develop for Linux, and you may need to use the web version of some stuff like Zoom. Also the only accessible audio editor is Audacity, so no Reaper even if it is available for Linux. It's honestly shaping up to be a great home for anyone that doesn't need blind-specific software or games, and even games are pretty well handled by Audiogame Manager and such. But no Paperback, no Bookworm (blindpandas book reader), no Tweesecake, none of that nice stuff. And no Orca scripts, no built-in OCR or AI, none of that. For OCR, you'll need to track down OCR Desktop.
As far as Elementary, I tried it a year or so ago, didn't like something about it, maybe something to do with Alt-tab, and went back to Fedora because it's much more up-to-date.
A few tips:
* Choose a distro that has up-to-date Orca, ATSPI and such. Don't fight your distro just to have updated AT, unless you know about Backports and other Debian stuff.
* Join the Orca mailing list. [1]. The Orca maintainer, and ATSPI maintainer are both there, and listen. For work I needed to navigate by tabs on a page, so the Orca dev made tab groups lists, and tabs list items.
* Read Orca's documentation,
[2]For any Linux distro, Desktop Environment, or app maintainers reading this: If you want your distro to be accessible, ethical, for everyone, ETC., don't wait for blind users to come to you, join the Orca mailing list and ask for feedback. You'll get plenty as long as we know our feedback isn't going into a nebulous triaging system never to be noticed by anyone with the power and care to change things.

These Activists Want to Dismantle Public Schools. Now They Run the Education Department.
---
Under Trump, the Department of Education has been bringing in activists hostile to public schools. It could mean a new era of private and religious schools boosted by tax dollars — and the end of public schools as we know them.

Debian will likely ship a GRUB with proper SBAT lines — maybe in the next point release or Debian 14.
Until then, every new laptop with the updated dbx revocations and stricter SBAT enforcement will reject Debian’s signed GRUB unless you set previous policy. This is making me very sad. Linux gets me, yet again.

in reply to Amir • • •So it's quite possible that keyboard help doesn't actually trap native keys, just stops those already scripted from doing their thing.
I don't have a working JAWS to test the hypothesis.
